That is the one, get it. All those should be rayon.

There should be small print on the back that says what it's made of... You can see in this listing, third photo, constituents.

Men have to pick these up often for their woman, and it's probably not a problem for a woman.
Omg, this whole time I thought it was the Kotex U pads, it's the tampons lol, I didn't know that. Thanks for the link! Tomorrow, I already left the market.

The Limitless looks like the best design so far but I don't have one. I don't think there is a 22mm version. Side fill after removing the top cap.

The Avocado I took the orings off the reducer and looped a piece of thin kanthal through the air hole, then twisted the ends and cut off the excess, leaving a small tip. Now to refill I pull off the cap, and remove the reducer by grabbing the tip.

There is a 22mm version of the Limitless, the 22mm came out first.

It's ok, I did see that vid on your YouTube channel. I thought you pinched it off the pad. Pretty funny!

I remember you listing it in your order of preference liking it more than Sally's Graham, right?
But Sally's Graham was a bit easier to use.

It's a different type/grade of rayon, it's a more dry looking type and has some different attributes. The packaging isn't great for the rayon, it's all compacted, but you can't get that type of rayon other than from the melatonin (. ect) bottles.

The bottle rayon, all that I've seen are the dry type. The bottle rayon would be a better choice to use, more uniform and easier to work with... As was shown a few pages back the fiber is nice, straight, and even.

Either way they both cost about 5.00 to try.

Thanks for the tips, JeremyR, PaulNHC, and kross8! I did forget to mention that my Subtank is the newer version, so I have the larger juice holes in the RBA (no need to bust out the Dremel, haha). I have a pancake in right now that's holding steady (credit to NickN and his post on pg. 3 of this thread for the idea), but whenever it's had enough I'll give JeremyR's tip a try.

I do have to ask, are you suggesting a "mullet-style" cut: having a thicker part of the wick sticking straight out and cutting flush with the chamber wall, then leaving a longer, thinner tail hanging down towards to deck and juice holes? Or just a thinned tail, cut to the diameter of the RBA, hanging down from coil towards juice holes? This reminds me that I'll have to recover my old Photobucket password to post pictures of whatever I come up with...

I use 90vg/10dw diy. I make a 2.4 or 2.5 coil, rayon wick (google points) just tight enough to drag, pull the ends up like bunny ears, slide the ring down, cut the ears off straight about a 1/4 inch above the ring. Then stuff little by little with a small flat screwdriver. I can always trim later if dry or stuff little bits in gurgley.

@Heartsdelight this is available at Walmart and Walgreens and probably other stores as well. No prep just ready to use.

Thanks! I copied the picture of the Melatonin to buy.

All I can find including ijoy website is that the original is 24mm
I'm so sorry, I could've sworn there was a 22mm one. I can't find it either. But on myvaporstore it's $26.95, vaperoyalty $26.50, on FT $18.~ it was $20 on code3vapor for July 4th but it's sold out. I'm going to check Daniel from DJLSB Vapes video on YouTube, I could've sworn it was Daniel who said there was a first run with 22mm.

I would look around your neighborhood, it happened to me once when a package tracked as delivered, it was, but to a neighbor, she dropped it off. Or contact the post office. Where did you order from? You could try contacting them. Feel bad for you, which rayon did you buy? I could send you some, if you don't mind paying for the postage. Last time I sent @cheech226 some, I put in a Baggie & stuffed it full. @cheech226 there was a decent amount of rayon in the bag I sent you? The postage was $2.45.
I have a huge box of Sally's Graham.

there was a bunch of it heartsdelight. maybe 20' or so. It will surely last a long time. rayon is all it's been cracked up to be imo, and i'm happy i switched from cotton. I did go back to my beloved titanium wire tho after giving 316l a trial. the ss worked well in tc mode, but in the end i find i like the ti wire better.
thanks again, dear, for the generous sample of rayon, i'm gonna stick with that for my wicking. i'm pretty much satisfied with my vape gear atm and haven't been posting much of late. i keep telling myself i can only vape one thing at a time and as i have 2 nice tc mods and 3 good rta's along with 2 stm's i've been able to resist "shineyitis". i am looking at the new dna75's tho...........;)

My pleasure! Was just trying to help out the guy who lost his delivery. Shineyitis... Must stop... Lol, stocking up for the vape apocalypse. I ordered on preorder the SMY SDNA75 $66 I know SMY's track record in the past was meh. But since Daniel from DJLSB Vapes fine tuned the firmware & it comes pre installed, you can still go to escribe if you want, I took the chance. Received it, it's nice & compact, same size as Evic Vtc mini but more rounded, nice hand feel. Will play with it this weekend. I'm surprised that they haven't sent it to YouTube reviewers not much info on it.
