Evening, all -
Just caught up after
two days!!!
I, too, went the
rba route after getting sick and tired of spending so much money per month on replacing clogged/burned attys. So far so good; I lucked into an ASH and the thing is permanently welded to my hand (I have no problem taking it everywhere - that SS is tough enough for any environment and if I'm really scared I got an SS
tank to swap out in hazardous situations).
So, last night I decided the time had come to replace the coil, and decided also to reverse the stock wick. I had one that, like some others have noticed, got battered a bit during shipping and the top of the wick looked like the Cat-In-The-Hat's hat. When I went to push it
through the insulator top-down, it wouldn't fit so I figured I'd roll it (like in Zen~s video about wick insertion). It snapped in half almost instantly! I guess after a few weeks they get brittle... remember reading that also.
So, now I've got a new wick and a new coil, and the flavor is almost too much to handle!
Not complaining, however... not in the least!!
'K, off to grill a couple burgers then I'll be back...
