Me too√ I have kept my Shiseido and Organic Cotton at bay for a while since the CC-Rayon happened. It is so easy to use and performs exactly as the ... Cottons anyway. Besides that's one box-load of material to consume over our vape lifetime ;)

Q, during my ECF adventures, I have seen very little (if any) negatives about KGD. However, I have seen quite a bit of negative about Rayon....primarily they can't get it to work right. That said, those who like Rayon, prefer it much more than KGD. These are just my observations of the many accounts of these two wicking materials.

Rayon is like a wild beast. Hard to tame but once tamed it is excellent. KGD is easier to work with, less trouble. For me rayon is better but not night and day but enough to keep me going for it for all my atomizers.

Well, that's kind of what I figured. Need to find the trick to making Rayon work. Once found it is generally preferred at least by a little bit. What concerns me is I know some very proficient builders who struggle with Rayon. Rayon seems to be indiscriminate as to who it screws over. :)

And who wouldn't like a new challenge every once in a while :D

Sir, I find no noteworthy / considerable difference between the ... Cottons and the CC-Rayon. I find them vape and wick near similarly. Tho I find the building process with Rayon being tad easier. As such, I have no preferences here ~ just that I got a truckfull of CC-R to have a wick-o-rama!

Based on the size of those Rayon boxes, I believe just one of them would supply the entire ECF community for at least twenty years. :)

Hey bronze! If you would like to try some rayon, I would gladly send you a big packet of it :)

Appreciate the offer Kiwi. Actually, I'm going to try KGD next. Got some coming my way. But I would like to keep a rain check on the Rayon if I ever need to cash in on it.OK?

Thanks Bud!

I, like qorax, have found that much difference between both in terms of flavor and vapor. Sometimes I think the rayon tastes better but if so it's not that much of a difference. On the other hand, I feel the opposite in that I find kgd easier to use.

Back a couple of month ago I took the largest size box of Cellucotton into my favorite B+M and left it. They do an extreme amount of builds there with it and a couple of days ago I stopped in to re-up my supply, they still had loads of it yet.
My take of the workings of the various mediums is they are all similar so price becomes my determining factor, none seem difficult to use.

But then I still use a lot of silica. Rayon and micros in drippers or tanks that vape like drippers and conventionally wrapped silica in all my tanks.

Regretfully no sir! Dripping is not my cup-of-tea, so to speak ;)

I drip my nasty NETs because they gunk the coils quickly and tanks don't make sense for those. My gripe with drippers is kind of two fold. One, I don't like being tethered to a juice bottle, and two, I don't like leaky devices and drippers tend to be leaky. I found one particular RDA that not only knocks it out of the park for flavor (even on the dripper scale) but also provides for 1ml juice capacity (which is high compared to traditional drippers) and it is near leak-proof. I feel like I can load the thing with juice and get a couple hours out of it and not feel overly cautious about preventing leakage. While I have always held the opinion that drippers tend to be a better vape than the Kayfun (by a notch), I still prefer my Kayfuns for all day vaping. Anytime you can get top shelf flavor with a 4.5ml capacity it will get my attention. :)

Drop the other shoe, Bronze. Which RDA?
