I've been loving this stuff too. I agree with what everyone else said. juice tastes better from the start and no dry hits, and it wicks sooper dooper fast...

Been loving this stuff. Definitely need to use a little more than cotton. Especially on a vertical coil. Literally tried over stuffing kanger rebuilt coil and no dry hits. My Magma loves it.

On your magma, do you let the wick tails just reach the bottom, or do you let them pretty long and stuff it?? I've been letting them just touch the bottom and it seems to be wicking better.... Same goes for my Igo-w and Tobh...just using enough to cover a small amount of the deck, with better results than cotton (or using longer tails of ccr) IMHO..

edit: Basically, just using thicker amounts of the Rayon and shorter in length...Although I think Im just a noob still trying to figure out how much cotton to use too...Rayon is easier I think.

Thank-you goes out to Stephanie for hooking me up!!! :D

Yup just touching the bottom. Stuff that thing so it just barely slides a little threw the coil. Do the same on the Origen.

Ive been messing with this stuff for a couple days now. Im not so sure Im getting any better flavor from it. In fact, in my KFL+'s, it seems to mute the flavor. In a dripper it seems about the same as cotton or KGD. It wicks better than cotton or KGD and like others have said, tastes clean from the get go. I put it in a mini PT2 and got a burnt hit on the second pull, hit it a few times without firing and it went back to wicking properly. The jury is still out as far as Im concerned but Im gonna mess with it some more before I give up.

I got the muted from my KF's too. I went back to ReadyXWick on those

in my Pt2 heads, my microcoils and cotton wicks regularly taste weird, or bad. it doesn't taste like it's burning but sometimes I hear a sizzling sound. i've redone coils, put new wicks in and even new juice - first few puffs taste of cotton then it tastes great, but every few hits taste weird and bad. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. could be my coils suck but they seem fine. anyone else had this experience and do you think rayon will fix it?

I get that once in a while. Ever try flipping the rubber cup on the head so cup faces up? And don't screw the base to the tank to hard, just snug.

no i've never tried that...i will though. i just got frantic and gave up for a moment after several crappy tasting wicks. I wound up filling up with Strawnilla and using a stock coil and wick. oh my god what a disaster that is...a) i can't use watts, at all. have to stay at 3.4 volts. b) still tastes burnt unless i do about 3 primer puffs before every real puff. are you kidding me? protank 2s--as is--are awful, awful, wretched. and this is a "hard to torch" liquid! and is--on cotton and a microcoil. but that weird taste is absurd too. i just want to be able to enjoy vaping and not have my daily routines interrupted by having to try and get rid of this awful taste. I will try flipping the rubber cup. what does not screwing the base to the tank too hard do? increase wick flow? i've been getting it pretty tight, because i thought it would leak otherwise

Lighten up those cotton wicks if you are having problems. Should move back and forth inside coil with little resistance. Sometimes tucking over the end too much has also caused me problems.

the thing that confuses me is that I think my cotton is mostly the right size, sliding back and forth, fluffy, but touching coils. the one place I may most likely be off with my cotton is the ends and how much to tuck in at the ends. usually if i use less cotton i get the gurgles. all that said, spike's thing about flippin the cup upside down...and loosening base..not jumping to conclusions but so far great vapor and no off taste, just blessed wakonda...

i'm also hearing the lovely pop again some...haven't gotten that at all lately...only one off taste so far, fixed by priming...

so when you guys talk about the base being too tight...do you mean the whole base screwing onto the tank, or do you mean the coil head screwing into the base? i just loosened both a bit

Personally I keep my tank base loose, coil tight but the whole unit I tighten just till the head will fire. And I've never had luck with the cup inversion but many have. I do think you need to watch how much of the wick is left when assembling, I think my best wicks are the ones where I trim them close to the edge of the coil housing wall...nice to know! :thumb:
