Thanks for the reply Kenny. As of right now, I have a 2.1 ohm microcoil with 13 or 14 wraps of 28 gauge, wrapped around a 2.5mm bit. I use japanese cotton (koh gen do specifically), and on my friends advice, use a fair amount. I fluff the tails, and trim them so they are just touching the juice deck. Not blocking the channels or anything, sort of just pushed up against the sides after juicing the wick. It does really good at 12 or 13 watts, but in preparation for the P3, I'm trying to find a good tank that can handle up to 20 watts.
It's an authentic svoemesto kayfun with the DX top fill kit and I got the glass kit from them too. I replaced that glass with a better one, can't recall the website I bought it from, but it's smoked pyrex, not quartz. It really does look nice, and with my driptipdesignz drip tip, the whole thing is worth more than a brand new Provari v2.5. It's a shame for something so luxurious not to meet my needs, but at this point I've sort of accepted the 12 watt range, although my friend can do his at 17-18 and he's building almost exactly like I am. I think he has elf powers...
You might be using too much cotton. Less is more in the KFL's. Too little is possible, but pretty difficult. Too much cotton & your wick won't be able to keep up.
