Yes it is, bit something stopping me ordering even upgrade kit - I guess this is the fact that my traditional A2 works perfect :)
I am thinking about ordering A1 instead ;) as backup device

Seems like my stock A2 is working good as well. Would like to be able to see the juice in the tank. Curious if the wicking method in the new tank version will work as good as the "tank mod" I'm doing to the A2 currently. The CE2 cap with the two wicks sticking out is working really nicely for me.

See if you can find Turbo on the forum he knows all the suppliers of wick and mesh, , I got my mesh from the meshcompany england, might be expensive to get it from there, hope this helps

Which mesh did you get?

I had that site open but didn't bookmark it.

Hey Tony;

Yes the wick I'm using is the wick I got from Cetin. I am using a piece that is about 2" long, folded over and having the loop of the fold inside the tank. That loop keeps the wick from coming out of the CE2 mouthpiece too easily. When filling, I push the wick almost all the way into the tank, fill with a syringe, then pull the wick back out of the tank till most of it is pulled out. Doing it this way, the wick is now heavily saturated with juice, because it was inside the tank when being filled. Find that I can completely vape a tank dry.

Currently I don't have any other wick. When I ordered my A2 from Cetin I also ordered 5m of extra wick and wire. I would like to find my own source for wick and wire somewhere here in the US.

So it is the #400 mesh? Looks like they have a few of the #400. Was there a specific #400 mesh that you have used? How long have you used the #400 mesh? Do you like it well?

On the wire, you are using the .16mm Kanthal wire?

If I know the exact item, I can try to source it here in the US.

I use the .16 and the .20 kanthall in the A2, I have only just got the 400 mesh which Im playing with at the moment, it wicks really well and rolls too, trying to work out to roll and bend it at the same time, and thats not easy

Have you watched the vid Cetin has on the A2 tank upgrade? It shows him rolling the mesh around two strands of wick. Suppose you could also use the pin for making it more rigid so it will roll out into a circle instead of crushing it or having bent areas instead of round.

He made it look easy of course...

what differences do you see between the #16 and #20 wire?

here is the nice source of Kantal wire on ebay
http://stores.ebay.ie/buymywire?_trksid=p4340.l2563
I've have read of people using the 1/8" and the 1/16" wick. I will need to see which size is the better. I'd like to use this wick on both my Bulli A2 and my soon to be iAtty from GG.
I am waiting for iAtty in stock too -)

its the resistance that is different the .16 has a resistance of 66.9 ohms per metre and the .20 is 43.8 ohms per metre if you want higher resistance coils you use the .16 and if you want lower resistance you use .20, its so you dont have to have too many turns or too long a coil, if that makes sense :laugh:

Well I tend to like my resistance at around 2.0 oHm lowest to say 3.2 or so highest. I usually use my Provari at 3.7v to 4.2v or so. I've noticed my current clearomizers have 5 loops.

I looked at my wick that I got from Cetin. It is approx 1/16th" wick. I need to also checkout the wick for the iAtty because I thought in a vid that Imeo did that he mentioned using 1/8th" wick when rebuilding the iAtty. Want to use same wick and wire for Bulli A2 and iAtty if possible. Arg!!! I'm getting these two confused with each other! Need to write this all out to keep it straight.
