Cotton wick

[kachuge]

hey there,
I've got a couple posts out there on cotton...... it's the holy grail don't ya know...........

I can't seem to wick with cotton....... but I'm not satisfied with total silica anymore.......

solution?

I take my kangar mini protank II coil and once I've used it for a while, I open it up, take out the silica flavour wicks, dry burn it, and then add one or two strands of cotton yarn....... not the whole thickness.. I break it down into the 4 strands it comes in, and I use one or two...
neither way leaks, adjust to your own taste and need for vapour........... I do both

my two cents

I was thinking that I would keep using silica *in* the coil, so I can still dry-burn it without having to totally re-wick... threading any kind of wick thru one of those tiny coils looks far from easy. But I might continue trying cotton for the flavor wick, for some of my coils, and use some of the silica wick I'm about to get in the mail for some others, and just see how they each do, with coils I build myself. It might be very different from the store-bought coils, I won't know until I try it out.

I’ve been rewicking protanks and evods with cotton. I found it a lot cheaper than replacing the heads. I'm using more juice, but the flavor is better with more vapor. That's a Trifecta.

After reading these posts, I've decided to make some cotton wicks.

I did buy some cotton balls a while back an boil them twice, but just never got around to using them. So just now I took out the Silica wicks from the PT/eVod coil and threaded the cotton though. Boy does it make a difference. And yes, they do use more liquid. I've turned the volts down, as I just don't need the higher volts with using with cotton. I may try less cotton next time.

No matter how hard I try to just quit experimenting...
