Hey Jerms, I received the "braided" wick from DV. It's twisted not braided. I heard from Stormy, she's looking into Ekowool, so that's a possibility from a US vendor.
I figured so, the picture wasn't matching their words. That's some false advertising DV is doing, they should give you a refund. I'm pretty happy with the German silica so not really interested in the Ekowool anymore. I hear the Ekowool works great as a sleeve for SS mesh since it's hollow, haven't heard much how well it works alone for wicking.
