That's a good idea; have to give that a shot soon. The box of Cellucotton I bought at Sally's had 500 feet it it, so I'm unconcerned about waste and free to experiment. I'll try your suggestion, which I take to mean leaving a bit of excess above the coil, to be pushed down if gurgling/spitting are issues.
i rewicked the griffin clone,, i went with a 3mm post for the coil and long tails to be sure it all reached.
in this experiment i made the coil really long and had to bend the legs like you might for some vertical coils i have seen. it wasn't too hard. what i found was i had to retrim the rayon 3 times to get the flow right and let the air flow better.
there is no noticeable flavor change.
next i will build a reg @ 2.5 coil over 1 air vent with long tails.. and split them to the 4 channels
ok,, reg coil build over 1 airvent,, 2.5 dia
made the rayon longer than normal to reach the far side channels.
trim the front rayon as normal.
tuck the far side rayon first into channels,, then trim.--this set of tails is more about channel filling and back up juice feeding
take a screwdriver/other,, and poke it across the deck to ensure both air vents are clear
flavor is nicer- a lot of air in the chamber circulating before it hits your drip tip
new wick pattern for me
So I was saying I put a build in the Smok rsst Genesis. This build is really nice and I'm pleasantly surprised by the vape I'm getting from it this time. And it's wicking well too. Gave it to my buddy and he's very happy with it. The wick is staying very clean for him.
I wicked the coil with it between my fingers, worked out well. Used a 2.5mm coil, the wick hole is 3mm... I cut about 75% of the wick straight off. Then tapered what was left. The idea is to have the tail fit loosely in the hole, and have the full wick sitting a mm or two above the deck. When filling it bubbles out the wick well. This allows the wick to draw effortlessly and for air to pull in to prevent vacuum lock.
Rsst, 2.5mm, triple twisted 32g, think it was 1.2 ohm or so, used Sally's Cc.
Once filled I just swirled it around to lay the wick around the tank. Working well with Vg. Don't know about crazy high power chain vapes but working good for regular vaping at 25w for my friend.

is unlike anything I have ever seen. What is it? Perhaos I am looking at it wrong, but is the coil above the tank?

Genesis tanks are basically a dripper deck with a tank below it.
i dont know if i will sleep better knowing all of you guys are out shopping for tampons.
Next month will be 44 years of marriage and got sent out tampon shopping right away. Nothing new.
i hear that,, to be fair i never sent anyone out to shop for me.
i love your signature,,it says exactly what i told others about chatting on the net about vape stuff.
I did not know that
it is pretty neat, and very interesting.
Congrats on 44 years, Paul!
This thread convinced me to try rayon. The link below lists all the Kotex brand products and their ingredients. The word rayon appears about halfway down. I would guess the 'wood pulp' designation should essentially be same thing. Anyone know for sure?

Welcome tckenno!
OK, I recommend the KU sleek or click, the Super will be a larger piece. The others contain adhesives that you don't want. Wood pulp isn't the same that's basically paper. Rayon is cellulose removed from the other components of wood pulp and recombined to form pure fibers.
Most can find this right at their local store, so it's quick and easy to get, you won't have to wait for an order to try rayon. Then you can purchase some easier to work with forms if you choose.

the odd thing,,i and others have offered to send Sally's rayon FREE to anyone and all you have to do is send me a self addressed stamped envelope. i stuff it and send it right back = no awkward shopping trips for most of you guys.
Same here kross8. For those that want to try it, there are many of us that are willing to share.
i must admit,,i am getting humorous thoughts of these guys shopping for rayon. it was a funny topic a few days ago with some friends
Do you think that there are more males in the Kotex isle at the grocery store than usual lately? LOL!
