Hey folks! Been browsing ecf for years but never post. Figured I'd get to posting so I could crack the 5 required posts.
I bought the Kennedy rda today. Before buying, I asked about leakage. I like dripping through the drip tip and the Kennedy looked like it might not work for me. The employee at the vape shop recommended I use a wicking method (probably has a name, iteo maybe) which involves your wick going through one coil, over the positive post and in through the other. I tried it out with my first build and a strip of organic cotton came up a little short. So I tried my own wicking method (probably seen somewhere before in my years of vape-web browsing). It's traditional wicking, but with strips of the coarse, outer layer of organic cotton criss crossing over the positive post, touching each wick. Its working well so far and I haven't had any leaking.
Just wanted to know how you guys wick your Kennedys to drip through your drip tips (if that's how you drip) and if you have any builds or wicking methods that help avoid leaking. Check out my wicking and try it if you'd like!
