one more test... pulled the cotton from the RSST, dry burned and cleaned the coil, rewicked with Rayon... weird stuff its "crunchy" and stays puffy went handled, doesnt compress like cotton. Pirates Booty in the RSST with rayon takes on a whole new life. The spicyness of the PB comes alive... this is pretty kewl people.... wicks fast too, tried to get it to go dry on me by super puffin and it wouldnt go dry....
looks like I have a new setup for the RSST, 3mm silica, rayon combo is working fine... now to see how long it takes to gunk up and turn colors...

and one more ... rewicked the 3.1 with the rayon... loaded it with Legend this time. feels like its a bit juicier, a bit more mouth coat, vapor production is still the same, flavor increased just a tad, not as much as an improvement as in the drippers... Im gonna have to say its a toss up between cotton and rayon in the 3.1 ... dont know if im just nicced out at the moment from trying everything or the rayon did improve the nic delivery on the 3.1, got that tightness in the throat going on at the moment... and BTW TH was improved in all tests in all the toppers I converted to rayon.

Not that I'm looking to change from cotton but what rayon did you get? More details please.

Just looked you can get a 10ft coil for $5 on amazon and the Sally site shows a 10ft bag for $2 online. If I should decide to try this I'll look around. I'm not getting 40ft.

It's an awesome carry atty Bimini. I keep it full of Legend all the time, heck, I played a round of golf last weekend with my dad. It was the first time in my life I didn't smoke a cigar while playing. But if you have a Magma, you can stop chasing the perfect flavor. IMO

I've just about killed a 30ml bottle of Maple Eh? in my Magma with dual 24g 0.26Ω and rayon. I already liked Maple Eh? in other devices, but it reaches new levels in a Magma. I'm upping the Maple Eh? to 100ml bottle status for future orders.

Wish I'd known about that a month ago. My visit to Sally's was a very weird experience. And the smallest box they had was 500 ft.

Actually, I wonder if Sally's started selling those smaller quantities online in response to the new market demands of vapers?

I have come to the conclusion that vaping is expensive, clutters my desk up with all sorts of shinys, requires way too much of my time fiddling with wicks, coils, do-hickies to make coils on, cleaning all sorts of thingies, recharging batteries, and using up all my data quotas surfing the net for whats new and youtubereviews....

think Im just gonna go to dripping directly straight out of the bottle on to the tounge ....

and on second thought.... naaaaawwwwww I love vaping too much :)

probably so, or its designed for the same process for single home use for those DIY's who enjoy doing their own hair

just checked my RSST Rayon wick... vaped about 1/2 a tank so far and its still very clean, normally, cotton at this point would be a coffie color...

I really like CelluCotton Rayon's durability, too. When I use low capacity drippers, I have a lousy tendency to try to get just one more vape before dripping again. With cotton, this almost always resulted in burning the wick a little (at best) or burning it in half. CC rayon withstands these stupid attempts with flying colors and still tastes great. [Edit: ...tastes great AFTER dripping more juice!] It lasts much longer without rewicking even without near dry burning.

I'm sold on CCr ('til the next greatest thing, anyway).

Cotton has always been a problem with low capacity drippers for this very reason. Even damp, cotton will burn.

As someone who has owned Original (14500) Mini's, Mini 2.1, Woodvil (Grand, 18490, and mini), Grand and VV Grand;

Might I suggest that you start with a Classic Grand and an RM2. Rob O'Neill does personally answer his emails if you have any questions.
And if you need a 'mule', PM me. But I'll state upfront I will assume no responsibilities concerning unstable governments....
Thanks Papaw, I'll keep that in mind. I'll be a while yet, seeing as I recently retired it's gonna take a while to save up for another a top notch mod. :2cool:

    Awww dammit , I was really wanting to not want Rayon and now you come up with a non-subjective logical reason to try it , I can't resist a non - subjective logical reason , crap ! :)
