I'm using dual spaced fused Claptons at 2.5mm ID
I tried thick (KGD) wick and hammered channels = no leak but dry hits
thinner wick and stuffed the channels with a sledgehammer = too stuffed, won't wick
pulled some wick out of the channels so it was looser = great hits, leaks a little during fill = good enough
I close the afc and seal it with a vape band while I fill, turn over until the air bubble is all at top, pull the afc ring/vape band off, flip and dab any drops out of the air holes with a vaper towel corner.
It sounds complicated but there's minimal leaking and none after the fill-time cleanup
it spatters a small puddle through the air holes over the course of a tank but that's different
