I've tried the organic cotton, readyxwick, KGD, hemp, and peaches and cream yarn. Haven't tried rayon yet, mainly because I'm pretty happy with my set ups. Of all I've tried, I like the KGD and readyxwick the best. The readyxwick last a super long time and is easy to work with. I find I get the best flavor with the KGD though. My builds are usually around .5 and if I'm feeling lazy I'll throw in some readyxwick and forget about it for a while, but with the KGD being in pads, it's super easy to get consistent sized wicks that take all of five seconds to change out every few days. Luckily, I haven't run into dry hit issues yet. That's another beautiful thing about the Reo. I just squonk every few hits rather I need to or not

Well, Hi Stacy!
Thanks for the input! For 10 bucks I have a foot coming. I'm tired of the dry burn daily and when the NET adventure starts it's only gonna get worse ;)
Just picked up 2 Reo's, love being able to control how wet the wick is, even mid hit. Fixin' to pick up a Chowderhead atty soon as well, love the Rm2's, but sometimes I like to run a dual...

Edit, I'll send off some Rayon for you to play with too...might as well run the full gamut!

Same here, when I took a draw off the KGD the first time I was shocked at the flavor I had been missing from my other cotton. Granted I haven't tried many different ones but it tastes so dang good!!!! I nearly passed out the first time I tried The Virus with it, speaking of let me squonk and vape right now. :lol:

pm you addy to me...rayon on the way. I think the difference between KGD and Rayon is negligible, but you should be able to try it for the knowledge base at least...

Just got a Mephisto and an Odin from CH. Both are awesome. If you haven't tried the KGD yet, I'll send you some when I send the other. Congrats on your Reos. I'm getting my third for Christmas, and said I was done after that, but then I seen that a Woodvil run is coming in Feb. I'm done after that I swear lol

OOOHHHH I'm JEALOUS!!! I saw the classified right after you bought that one. She's a beauty!! I'll warn you now, That damn catfish atty thread is addicting and will take all your money lol. Once you have the Reo, attys is all you need to shop for and there are always plenty to choose from there

Lots'o enablin'/good stuff goin on in this thread.

Im lovin readxwick. Been rocking the same coil/wick in 3 different setups for almost three weeks (well 4, but I never use the kayfun...) Definitely makes vaping a whole lot easier. Worth a try imo...

If there's one thing NT/Reo threads are good for is enabling for good stuff. :)

Think I am going to use the RxW for my first low build this weekend. I think I am finally ready to dip below .4 we will see how it goes. Warms up all my meters and VTC4's. :)

I was just thinking how subtle ST's enabling is...obviously tried and true technique.

Hee, hee. Still sitting on 2 VTC5's. It's a posterity thing at this point though...

One day, one day. I just got into the game late and am not risking buying some fakes. :) Even though I have looked at all the "How to spot a fake" threads.

I only use the XtarVTC4's for my mech, I run the AW's in my Reo now I didn't think it would make that much difference but the button tops are a lot better for them. I just got through Dremel'ing the arcing burns off my flat top Efest's earlier. But they are nice and shiny after I buffed them out.

Can't find the 5's. There done...4's are just fine. Did not know that about the button top, now I understand. Next run I'll pick up AW's for the Grand...noalox gets used every cycle and every device anyhow...

That's what got me, I started using those Efests (blech) before I Noaloxed/Deoxit and got some bad arc burns. Dremel sorted that out but been using the AW's for a few days now shorter button throw and no arcing what so ever and they are untreated. Pwheeler showed me the light on those when we met up at the vape summit.
