Koh gen doh cotton

[Carl Town]

Hi all I have took up building my own coils.
The question I would like to ask is I have bought some koh gen doh cotton and I was wondering how much I will need to cut off the pad for a 3mm coil as that is all I will be using and the rda I will be using is the mongrel rda a single coil rda to start off with.Hope some can help.

Trial and error is really the best way to get a sense of what you need. Wicking is as much an art as a science.

I've switched to rayon so I don't use cotton anymore, put from what I remember it might be a 7 - 10 mm strip for a 3 mm ID coil (note that that's after the outside layers have been removed, and you should cut with the grain of the fibres, not across them). You can always add a bit more if it's not enough or pull some fibres off if it's too much.

If you have any other questions, you might get more responses in our Rebuildables forum. Good luck, and welcome to the wonderful world of wicking!
