Gonna give ceramic wicks a shot...

Been very happy with my Reomizer on my Reo for the past couple weeks (I'm a brand new ReoNaut) and the cotton is getting a little old. I did a build with #500 mesh and didn't care for it. For me, mesh doesn't work well on anything but a genesis atty, the purity and consistency of the flavor just isn't there. I ordered some XC-116 ceramic Readywick to see how that is, just a foot. If my mind is blown, I'll buy 5 feet of it.

Also, I have a modified Trident V2 coming in the mail tomorrow, which will be used as a bottom feeder on my Reo, courtesy of my good buddy quigsworth here on the forum. I'm thinking that draping the readywick down with dual coils into the well of the trident will be a perfect combo, and I think the Readywick will compliment the Reomizer very well.

So I want to hear from you guys, how big of an improvement is the purity of the flavor from cotton to Readywick, and how does it compare to mesh in a genny?

Also, lets see your builds!

Update, Didn't like the ceramic wicks at all. Switched to Koh Gen Do and its fantastic. Pbusardo did a really awesome review of various cotton based wicking materials and its definitely worth looking at, with Rayon and KGD coming out on top, far superior to standard cotton

I saw that review and was surprised at the low performance of regular organic cotton. I've been using rayon for a few weeks now and I love it. Running dual coils at 0.4 ohms in a Cyclone on my Reo. I've gone slightly bigger than micro coils to give me a bit more wick in the coils. Went back to regular cotton for one day and that was all I could take

I keep wanting to like ceramic but it consistently disappoints, The durability intrigues me as does the ability to "dryburn" without re-wicking. I always return to rayon and wonder where my head went. [Please don't tell me where my head must currently reside.]
