So you're saying you were using it for 1-2 years before JeremyR introduced it to us in May of 2014? ;)

No, did I screw up? I started after Jeremy posted about it, seems that long but I could be wrong, it'd be the 2nd time, thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken, if your old enough you'll know who said that, hehhhh....

If you make a basic trim before fluffing the tails it's very easy to trim off about 50% from each side do to how the rayon "bunches" when double inserting.
Link to other thread post on this "Double Insertion" method please.

I spent a good couple of hours last night searching for some posts that I made about rewicking Vivi Novas with cotton thread that I was cutting off a new commercial dust mop head at my work. The label said "cotton" and seemed to work pretty good. That was until I put a flame to a piece of one and black smoke rolled off it as it went limp. Turned out to be a polyester blend or something. I never posted about it again till now, no one else seemed to be giving it a try so I felt not reviling it.

Heck, when I first heard about using rayon I thought it was plastic like nylon (because of tire belts I guess)
Yeah, my initial reaction was also, "They're crazy". Then I did a bit of research. The original Rayon thread was only about 75 pages long at that point. :laugh:

I posted in that thread on 6/5/14 that I bought my first and only box of rayon. I still use it on every coil. Wonder how much is left in the box? Be willing to bet more than 2/3 are still in there.

Here is the Orion and Pods on eBay. They say they should be available in a week.
Lost Vape ORION DNA GO POD AUTHENTIC FREE SHIPPING | eBay

OMG! Who is going to pay all most $100! for a Pod Mod & 2 Spare pods?
$12.99 for 2 pods?
IMO in this price range, it's going to be a tough Sell! There are so many options for some one willing to spend $100 on a starter kit.
It's a nice looking little Pod Mod & a DNA chip is a bonus :) But OMG $$$$

The competition is in a whole different price range! $27.95 Authentic Aspire Nautilus AIO 1000mAh Pod System Starter Kit (Standard Edition) - 4.5ml / 1.8ohm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
They use "Nautilus" coils, witch have a good reputation & are reasonably priced!

I dunno Steam. I've bought many of those cheap ones before and they were are a waste of money IMHO. Eciggity calls the Orion for an advanced vaper device only. They are probably right. Different power levels and Replay will probably be too confusing for someone coming off of cigarettes.

I'm definitely getting one or two of them to play with. They will probably beat any other pod system I ever tried so far. So I'm in. :D
