stupid top airflow like the H+ though.Sorry, had to replace my rotors and brakes on one of my cars... My 2 daily liquids are a 16 and 18mg
Just put my merlin together and it was leaking pretty bad. Guess I need to watch a different video (or 3) about proper wicking method.
What Nic should I buy? There are so many choices. Who has the best?6 according to the calc spreadsheet:
I have no experience with them. I just bought RTS and Nude for my first order because they did ready to freeze and extended shelf life packages. There are lots of threads in other forums about Nic. This isn't really the thread for that discussion or the discussion we have been having here.

I got mine from chemnic.
Ok, now back to the Merlin. Fozzy, what really helped me with leaking is to make sure that I didn't have any wick touching the center with the air hole. I wicked mine, wet the wick, and then ran a screwdriver down both sides to make sure it wasn't touching the center.

thx, will take a look to see if I did that by mistake. Only 2 rta's I did before this were dual coil (griffin and gemini) and it took me a couple tries before I figured them out also. Mostly mad I stuck it on my pico right off vs letting it sit on an atty stand or on my istick 50. Luckily I caught it before any juice found it's way down the battery cap/sleeve.
I didn't have any touching the venter air hole that I could see but cleared it to be sure and pulled up on the wicks and pushed them up out of the bottom of the juice holes and it seems to be working now. Quite a different flavor over the dual coils I have been running with the same juice. I put in a 0.4 ohm clapton and sorta wishing I had put in the lower ohm hive wires I bought but I will give them a try when this one needs changing.
Ricks, it seems VG based nics last longer. However, from your previous e-mails seems your all in PG guy. Then, glass bottle better than plastic. The vacuum (or whatever it is called)sealed is better (lasts longer).As well in order to last longer buy in small bottles, so you would expose less nicotine to air. Nude nicotine has it all but expensive, Nude Armor Nicotine Base - EXTENDED SHELF LIFE - Nude Nicotine hope some other members point to better alternatives.
I have an idea to get us closer to on topic. How well does the Merlin do with DIY juice? Does it wick better with a higher PG or VG mixture?
I have a 3mm, 24ga, 7/6 wrap @ .59Ω build in mine. Direct to lung obviously.
I can't take long hits @ 29W even though I'm using 1/2 the KGD that I tried first.
Roxy says she has a .25Ω Alien build that she can chain hit at 100W.
So does anyone have a link to a successful 50W+ wicking tutorial for cotton?
1600+ posts in this thread is a LOT of digging.
Thanks

My two do excellent with my DIY. One has 70/30 vg/pg and the other has 90/10 vg/pg. Zero dry hits, in fact I half close the juice holes on the one running 70/30. Here's a pic of how I wick, fluffy cotton to the bottom of the channels..

I just downloaded this from here if anyone else wants the link. Very handy. For what I just bought for a startup DIY Juice, it says it will last me 0.18 years.
Gee, I wonder how long this would last me? Maybe a couple months at best.
And to think, just about 2 weeks ago that drum was only $8,000. Looks like nic prices will go up.
Honestly I believe it will be short lived. About 3 or 4 months at best. All the nic suppliers know that people are afraid of the regulations so they are jacking the prices up. Once things become more clear in the future The prices will start to settle back down. After that I think it will depend on the states for if you can have nic shipped to you.
