Trancelot, I was having the same issues you were having when using cotton yarn. I don't know if you owned a Fogger V2 but I used the same principle of the V2 on the V4 with the cotton yarn. Instead of trying to control the wicking of the juice via the 4 channels, I just ignored the channels and lay my wicks around the bottom of chimney ring just above the channels. I also unscrewed the chimney 2 full turns using "Fogger" as my marker to control the juice flow. Now my wicks get wicked, no more dry hits and no leaking.

BTW, I'm using 100% VG juice.

When I didn't use the channels, all my liquid came out of the air holes. I emptied 2 tanks of juice, but I wasn't using the bottom fill hole. I was holding the glass, filling from the top, and then screwing it together. It's working now, but it doesn't hit/taste as good as my Magneto RSST or my Kraken. Both of those have a single microcoil at 1 ohm. Not sure if having two coils sub-ohm strains the flavor?

Just got my fogger today and I'm already have leaking issues and vapor is not that great. Flavor is awesome though.
I'm using rayon cellucotton as my vic and let it rest on the deck. Do you guys empty the entire tank and then try again each time you go to re-wick?

I usually try to vape the tank down as far as I can when I'm getting to re-wick. I'll give the tank a quick rinse and shake, and refill with "fresh" e-liquid.

I was going to buy a fogger RDA, does anyone have any experience with them? I presume they don't leak like the RBA as it's a dripper

Mine will occasionally seep a little e-liquid out the air holes, but not all the time. I think it's just my wicking technique.
 
Kayfuns were the first tanks I ever used, and they spoiled the crap out of me. I bought the V4 because I thought it looked cool, but I could never get it to wick the way I wanted. I tried several times with different wicks, builds, etc. I finally just gave it away. I guess there's a reason so many successful RTA's are modeled after the Kayfun.

i have been using a fogger v4 for 4 months now and up til lately, i have loved it. i am wicking it the same way that i always have but it's not drawing juice from the tank anymore. i took it apart and soaked it in hot water to clean it and i still have the same problem. can anyone help me pls?

I know this is a stupid question (since you already said you're wicking it the same way) but did you by chance change materials and/or coil diameter?

Also, if the PG/VG ratio of your eliquid is different, your wick may need tweaked a tad.
