I actually had a lot of success with mesh, until the ProTank came along and over simplified things. Lost interest, and now I seem to be caught up in the silica/ekowool hype. My mesh meanwhile sits there staring at me, right next to the AGA-T+.

My kayfun finally revealed its true power with a new silica wick that I bought from GG official. I thought the lacking of flavor is due to a wicking issue but now I realized that I used the wrong wick, this new silica from GG is ready to use, no boiling no torch, just mount it directly and the result is FANTASTIC! Maybe the ekowool I had before are all crappy chinese product...the quality of wicks matters A LOT!
The BIO cotton is also delivered to me today, gonna try micro coil tonight![]()

What is the current setup you've got running in there General? No issues wicking etc, I'm guessing?
Surprise vapemail!! I just received my replacement 30g wire from lightningvapes. He was kind enough to inlcude an extra 100' of 30g to make up for their error AND he shipped it Priority which is why I got it in a week. Good job!!
Scary part, it looks exactly like what I received before. I hope to God that it's my eyes playing tricks on me, and he didn't just repeat his mistake because if that's the case, I now own around 500 ft of 32g wire..and still 0 ft of 30g.
I'll test it when I get home to my digital calipers.
Hey Dust, where is Lightning Vapes? Canada?
East coast US. Can't remember exact location..

Hmmm. Probably not far from me. I'm mid-Atlantic just a couple hours from the coast. His prices seem reasonable (if he can get you the right stuff).
Bradenton FLA to be exact!

0.25.. woohoo! 30g it is.
Confirmed both rolls of 100 that he sent me, and re-confirmed that the previous one was 0.20.
Phew!
Hoping to build a new coil on the K-Lite tonight even though I have to take it apart again.![]()
Not much to add on the hardware side of things. I haven't tackled the Steam Turbine yet. Got a ton of DIY flavors in, so it's gonna be a lot of R&D over the coming week. Compiling a whole lot of stuff for the classifieds. This is a busy hobby! In the meantime, Sweet Smellin' Ellen with Phil Busardo and the Vapor Beast beast.
