Hi guys,
I'll be receiving 2 feet of 3mm RxW today and after wasting my combo pack, I wanted to get some advice.
My current plan is to dual 5 wraps of 26G around a 7/64 mandrel, is this the best ID for 3mm RxW? I remember seeing that 7/64 is good and 1/18th is good for higher VG liquid.
I am using an Odin and my main concern is coming from the cleaning and maintenance of this stuff when using a coil with touching wraps. I want to get myself to a spot where as I NEVER take the RxW out of my Odin. What is the proper cleaning method? Dry burn/blow/dry burn/blow on it?
Should I rinse it with water? Will it be safe to torch the RxW while still installed in my Odin? How will the black stuff from the coil get burned off if it's covered up by the coil?
Long and short, I want to use RxW, I am tired of re-wicking my cotton, but I also don't want to end up with frayed broken pieces of RxW after just 2 days use. :/
Would spaced wraps work better? Just a little worried about space in my Odin with spaced wraps..
