Thanks Tiggs!
Slow - Right now, I just use organic cotton balls, but Uncle and Count posted great alternatives.

Ooh, lucky, you have a hot tub!
I'm peanut butter and jelly because I don't even have a bathtub.
And I have so many aches and pains.
I was using a needle to wrap coils and not only was it not consistent but also to small for my hands. I finally took a drill bit and wrapped tape around one side to make a handle. Works perfect and consistent for me.

Yeah and when it got cold a week ago or so we cranked it up to 104 so it really does wonders. We were worried about the electric bill when we bought it, but lots of research we picked out a well built one that has only raise our bill about $25-30 a month. If you were closer if invite you over.

2. I'm still trying to wake up. Coffee isn't working.
Slow, I hope you get to feeling better. I wish I had a hot tub, I think I'd stay in it all the time.

Glad to help, Slow. I'd suggest organic cotton balls for a start. They're slightly more expensive ($0.50-$1.00) than regular cotton, but they don't have the added chemicals to them. The one thing to be careful about when wicking is not to use too much. A dense, thick wick won't draw the liquid as quickly and you'll get dry hits that taste of burn't cotton (yuck!) and once you burn your cotton, you'll need a new wick (and, often, some new juice).
What I've found with the Japanese cotton is that it seems to be manufactured bidirectionally, so that the strands are lined up. This channels the liquid more efficiently and provides an increase in wicking speed. This, in turn, reduces the number of dry hits and provides a slight flavor boost as the liquid does not need to filter through as much cotton to reach the coil. I, too, was hesitant to incur the expense, but I looked at it as the entire package of 60 pads cost less than two packs of cigarettes and should last me a long while.

We use it just about everyday. At 104 though you only can stand 15-30 minutes but the deep relief is so nice. In the summer we turn it down to around 99-101 still get the relief from the heat and jets, and also can enjoy it for longer. Anyone thinking of getting one,,, my best advice is to go to all the sellers a few times and do wet tests. After trying them out in the stores we totally changed what we thought we wanted.
Robin there is an idea for you... If you call most any place that sells hot tubs and tell them you want to do a "wet test" they will fill and heat some up for you. Bring a bathing suit and towel and enjoy. All the places we went to, none of the salespeople came around to bug us while we were in. After just tell th you have a few more you want to look at at other places.

Slow I was reading back a little are you asking about the new carto tank you got? the raven? I haven't used mine yet either...was thinking about it for today as a treat....but with my experience of carto tanks and cotton candy or marshmallow about a week until they don't have much flavor....the sweet stuff I vape kills cartos fast....I did vape some tobacco flavor (in a VVV tank with Boge cartos) a long time ago in them and they were good & flavorful for about 2 weeks....

I'm sure if I like the cotton I will end up getting a sample of the good cotton and switch to that. It's just like building coils to begin with. I was given a sample of the wire and ended up buying a whole spool of it. Then my hands got bad and I couldn't make them anymore . Now all these coil jigs have come on the market and made me experiment. Found the drill bit works good for me.
It really helps to have found the Treefam thread because everyone here is so good about sharing tips, tricks, and info. Luvs my Treefam

Actually I don't think I am going to use the new toy...I am going to PIF.....so I don't know....I don't like those kinds of batteries at all...when I first began vaping there were so many accidents with them and fear of them blowing up....I like my "AAA" boxmod....it vapes at 5V so anything with a 2.5 Ohm works best for me....

3. I've got to get my tanks and coils cleaned today. Never ending chore that I keep putting off.
Slow, we had a hot tub years ago and I loved it. If we ever buy a house again, I'm getting another one.
Hubby is outside working on my vape stand. Hopefully by next weekend he'll have it done for me.
