Ok rewicked to rayon today. Pulled the tencel after 4 days.

Here's pics of the job.
Rewicked flash e-vapor clone. 1.4 ohm, parallel 32, on a stacked zmax v3. Full 6v available, up to 22w.

I'm attempting to put this piece of rayon in that coil.

Pull it though with finesse, try to make it even on both sides. When it gets tight you can pull on the ends of the wick and it will stretch it to slide through the coil.

Slide it back and forth a little make sure it slides. This is how I trimmed it for the flashi this time.

Threw the dripper cap on and Let me tell you... Wow Unbelievable flavor, vapor, and nic hit! ... I still say it to this day because it's that good!


that looks awesome but wow that looks stuffed, I gotta try stuffing mine a bit more with the tencil for now, I think I might be wicking it too light

I only use 100vg w/ 3%-5% flavoring so I wouldn't know. I Don't use any added pg ever. I don't think that the PG would be a problem with it, but we'll see what others report.

So maybe this is the bomb for 100vg in tanks. Now that's an important benifit I think I failed to mention.

Back to tonight's wick, Here's a pic of the *same wick a couple hours later. Set up for the flashi tobecco clone.

I trimmed that angle to the wick before assembly. (Notice it's still there)

I am convinced CelluCotton/Rayon does not like thinner juices. Perhaps it does not want to release the liquid to the coil, but it just does not work well with thin juice. It's excellent with thick juice though.

ive been using 60vg in rba's and 80vg in drippers and have not had a problem....how thin have you been going?
will have to mix up some 50/50 and see..

Usually 45/50/5--never had any issues with wicking. Tried 'overpacking' yesterday, had to hold the coil in place with tweezers to keep it from being deformed. Pulling excess juice out of the sofa and still no taste of wick--1.3 ohms. Finishing my cheesecake now! I've found small plastic tubing that I've threaded my wicks into for 'on the go'. I really should post some pics for those of you who are having trouble loading the wick, it's just a breeze even with that damn little ceramic cup and the coil(s) loaded.

just loaded a clone of mothers milk in the fogger. now i liked it before, but not as much as the unicorn milk clone.(theyre similar)
man this cellucotton made the mothers milk taste alot better! going to have to remix some of the borderline juices i had and retaste them.
flavor in this stuff is just freaking great!

How's that Flash? I'm torn between that and a Taifun GT....

It vapes great, easy access to your coil at any time. If you have any issues with the tank wicking you just throw it in dripper mode and you can load a ml in it with no problem. It's the best of both worlds. In tanked mode it's still like a dripper. The coil is directly under the air tube with dripper air, so there's really no chamber. Which gives it a unique vape and flashes the juice quick.. Never a gurgle, never popping juice in your mouth. If you have mesh the tank wicks should be no problem. I'm running rayon tank wicks today, well one tank wick the other hole is wide open.. Testing it out with one wick for the last day and no leaks wicks great. I'm running it wide open as the AFC screws are way too tight. Vapor is still plenty warm in short tank mode. Very warm in dripper mode with short drip tip.

Its a 20.00 clone so it could use some simple mods and I have no issues with the base.

Thanks for the thread op. I got a huge box of rayon from Sally's and it performing a touch better than cotton. I'm getting a little more flavor and vapor. Th is the same which is fine with me.

Your welcome.. As you work with it, it only gets better as you figure out/ dial in the density..

WOW - OMG - this rayon is amazing!

I've had problems with dry hits or leaking on my Fogger V4.3 since I got it. I just rewicked using rayon, chain vaped my head off - and NO DRY HITS...............

This is the best thing since sliced bread:D

I'm going to rewick all my Reos now. This might be the stuff for chain vapers!

Welcome to the thread andria! Glad your enjoying it.. Isn't it the easiest wick you've ever worked with?

Living in a box of CelluCotton
Just rewicked my Magma with tencel top, was quick and easy now that I know how the fiber works. Put what would have been far too much if it was cotton through both coils. Trick was to twist the ends, get them a little wet (I just twisted 'em in my mouth o_O), snip off the end a bit for a clean point, and in it went. So much flavor I can taste my juice long after a vape.

Going to look into this CelluCotton, I think it will work better for my lady. Thanks everyone, this has been a great learning experience.
