I have a V1 right now but it's the same concept. I'm running 0.5Ω dual 10 wraps 27ga coils. No wicking issues and no dry hits for me. I can get 4 lung hits a refill and the wicks are still saturated. I could probably get 1 more but I drip as soon as I can see the bottom of the juice wells. Here's how I wick mine.

What is the ID of your coil?

Cool. Anwyays i rebuilt my coil to 2mm ID using 30g 7 wraps each. Followed your wicking method where its U shaped and falls over to the next well although it seems redundant as the well connected now. I seem to have lost some flavour due to this as opposed to the straight cotton vertical wick. :unsure: do u experience the same thing with U wicks? or could be my coil is a little too far from the air holes. It doesnt seem that way though.

I haven't wicked just vertical cotton for a while now so I can't compare but I don't have a problem with flavor. The only reason why I've gone for the U wick was because it was draining both wells evenly. I'll try vertical cotton wicks again when my V2 gets here. If you're using 30ga wire, try a 1/16" id. You might find better flavor there. Only reason why I went with 5/64" ID was because I found that as I go lower in ohms, my coils would glow even with a primed wick in it with a 1/16" ID. I'm not sure if the amount of cotton I was using was incorrect but I've tried different wick densities and the coil eventually glowed again.
