One thing I can tell you is BAKERO is not a wick but its a resistance flat wire that works wonders as a coil.
Silica is a wicking material.
Ekowool is braided Silica.
Cotton is 100% cotton also good for wicking purposes but a little process is involve like boiling etc...
The evolution of wicking
juice to the coil.
I say you try it your self , do your research on each item since each one requires more simple steps before use and then you judge for your self which one works for you.
Just a piece of advice . Do not believe everything you hear or read . Try it . Good Luck .
