I couldn't wait to get one of these, love the futuristic/sci-fi looks. So disappointed when I finally got it and tried it out. I didn't even bring a backup to work because I was so sure it was going to be awesome once I got acclimated to it. That was last night, tonight I have all my backups, and decided to tear into the pod. I plan to replace the silica with cotton when I get home as I was getting dry hits now and then. I've never used silica, but it doesn't wick as fast as cotton correct? Hoping it gets better. If I do rebuild, I only have 26ga kanthal, or some ss316l, don't recall what size that is. But I shouldn't try to build lower? Should I build higher, or just keep it the same?
