I was gonna say the same thing. That's what I use on mine. I swear mine looks shorter though.

Mine looks smaller too. I don't think it is one, but thought i'd ask though. I have since replaced mine and moved to a different tip. I will probably post it up in the classies with a CH Reactor V2 I no longer use...
No worries - I should have mentioned that and will edit the post momentarily.
Yeah it's a nice nic-er-upper for sure!
Gotta remember to squonk the crap out of it every single time too...
Have heard a lot of varying opinions and experiences with rayon and always say 'do what you feel comfortable with and what works for you'
Some nice builds there - going to have to try that on my Odin some day when I feel wild and dangerous enough to stop using my Cyclone for a few minutes
You might want to rephrase that...
Sorry, I could not resist.....

CH, what will the price tag be on a Divo and on the Reactor?
Thanks

I haven't taken any good pics of my 2 Odin's yet but will try to get a few up this weekend. I am really liking the RxW in them. I totally agree with what works for anyone to keep them off analogs is a good thing overall...

Thanks for pointing out the obvious there!!!
Well it is cellulose wick, not cotton, so the e-liquid doesn't stay in one place very long.
Hence the need for the longer tail - we're moving liquid instead of soaking it up with t-shirt material.
I can draw on that setup to dry hit in ~5 seconds.
I also taper my tail a little bit now with rayon.
Please do post up your exemplary pictures and videos... there's always something new to learn
You're inhaling Rayon, and you're not dead yet? Are you sure?
What difference does it make what it's processed with, provided none of those chemicals are left in the final product? If the chemicals used to process rayon scare you, please do NOT read up on the chemicals used to extract nicotine from tobacco, 'cause you'll surely have nightmares if you do.
I went the other way. I was happily using KGD when I heard about rayon back in the spring. After using rayon for a week or two, I reverted to KGD again in one atty. I kept it in there for less than a day. I haven't looked back since.
There's no single wicking material (or wicking method) that's right for everyone. Use what you're comfortable with and what works for you. Since it's my picture you're dissing, I'll admit that I do indeed run more tail on my wick than some people would consider optimal. I do it for one simple reason: I'm not always as attentive or aggressive about squonking as I should be and the extra wick gives more warning before going nasty dry. That's what works best for me. That doesn't mean it's what will work best for everyone.
I'm with you Rossum. Though I've tried cotton bacon. Reminds me of kgd sans the pressed outside. Not something I would buy again, but I definitely see the appeal. I dare say it wicks better than kgd. Super easy to work with, but I'm still a rayon man.
I use cotton for my sweeter juices to keep from them being too sweet. In my squonkers is always rayon.
My ch modded cyclone loves rayon. So does my throat for the inevitable dry hit when I forget to squonk.

I cross the road without having my hand held too

I have read all about extracting nicotine from tobacco and the thought did enter my mind about whether or not I should be vaping nicotine or so much. Since reading up on it I am now down to about 2% an will probably be @ 0% with my next juice order...
If I hurt your feelings about "dissing" your pic, I apologize, but its not the first pic on ECF I have posted that about and it probably won't be the last. I "do" realize what works for me might not work for others and vice versa and certainly wasn't my intention... I am glad that works for you, I was just stating my opinion, and what I have read on quite a few other posts here on ECF... I will try my best to stay clear of commenting on anything of yours that is posted as it seems you always have a way to put a negative spin on my comments.
no, dear. your
oops. flashback...
So CH offered to swap out the deck on the gold Cyclone I had reserved with that of the last of the finished SS 2013's he had left in stock so as to ship on Monday. It arrived today, and I'm happier than a man ought to be on account small chunk of metal. Thanks Tom!
First thing I noticed after pulling off that ever-so-shiny cap was that I couldn't see the juice holes in the center post. Tom actually has them just about all the way down below the level of the deck on this one, and I had to use a magnifying glass to be able to spot spot their top edges. I was a bit worried whether or not it would actually sqwonk, so I yanked my RM2 and popped it on to check before even coiling. Juice came out around the post amply and disappeared again leaving the dish dry as a bone like magic. Awesome workmanship.
I'm buried in work this week, so I only had time to do a quick single coil—same 7-wrap 28ga kanthal @ .9ohms I've been using in the RM2. The atty was sitting about 1/16" proud on the Reo Mini, and once I saw how great it looked otherwise, I did decide to force the pin in my connector to get it flush (the RM2 may not be entirely happy about that, but we'll see.) Airflow range is wider than I was expecting, and I got about as massive a lungful as one can expect from that coil on the first hit with both holes inadvertently full open. With the 1mm hole, draw is tighter than the RM2 default, and just slightly too tight for me. The holes can be closed completely.
I'd have to say flavor is just a hair shy of the RM2 (as might be expected from the slightly bigger chamber,) but the adjustability is more than a fair tradeoff. I did make the mistake of loading up an unfamiliar juice I was eager to try, though (Alien Visions' new Gryphon Breath, which arrived along with the atty) so I don't actually have a prior frame of reference with the flavor.
The only slight flaw I'd found with the RM2 is that I swear I can taste a hint of brass with it. I don't know if it was coming from the pin, the air hole, the bare spots on the posts where the chroming hadn't taken, or my imagination. I can't taste it with the Cyclone, though.
I also can't recommend the CH version enough. Functional workmanship is fantastic as already noted, and the price he's now offering is way more than fair, IMHO. I'll try to get a chance to get some pics up this weekend.

READYxWICK Fun stuff. Running it on all my builds right now. It's a little pricey but seems to last pretty much forever. It's a ceramic wick.
