I'm getting good vapor production, but I don't know.. I've only tried it with omega.. and I tried a super failed vertical build in magma.. I used it like a rope, so I'm going to try a straight filler next.

I'll do a normal build with magma.. cuz that makes practically anything feel wet, but so far, the vapor/flavor feels dry with my omega..didn't snap a picture of build. It was snug in there, but no mark from coil or shrinking from heat..80% vg

I'm looking forward to drilling out an old agi to play with it with nano coils on beds/clouds with this stuff though..

It shines on the vertical build bro.. That's where it was born!

Look at the opening post.. You need a lot. Pack around it to hold it in place if it comes loose from the coil. Since your dripping you may not be able to pack like op.. So you need to core wrap it first.

Do not wrap it like rip does.. That wrap was how I did my very first one and posted in the micro coil thread month and a half before his chimney video.. The better way is the Vcore way, see link in my signature.

Uses a core wrap of rayon then wrap around that to hold the core in contact. The wick only needs to be touching the core to wick to it.

Living in a box of CelluCotton
So, CelluCotton. Got a box of the Graham Pro 'regular~ordinaire' at Sally's. 500' for $10 and the box it is in could hold a basketball. Good lord. When I saw it I thought it was the box the other boxes of the stuff came in.

Between this and the 4 oz. of tencel I have (not including cotton balls/gauze/ekowool/silica), I will never need wicking material again. Might even convert the tiny space heater I have into vaping's version of a room humidifier.

I'll report back when I actually get to use some. I just got home and have been laughing my ... off at just how giant this box is.

When I went to Sally Beauty Supplies, the saleslady said they had small packets of CelluCotton in a small plastic bag, but I'd have to wait until next week as they were sold out at the moment.

petemoss, that would probably be the CelluCotton #580100 100% Cotton, not rayon, see pic at this link:
Graham CelluCotton 100% Cotton 44145

Edit: there is also a #44045 3 pound bag which is also Cotton, not rayon

Okay, so, CelluCotton for me wins in that it's like clay and cotton had a baby. This stuff is a dream to work with, you can pack a coil and it wicks with a fervor, and the only flavor is all juice. Tencel is still comparable, but the CelluCotton is simply far easier to work with for our purposes.

Amazing work, people, I'm impressed.

Hey brian, I'm also using a Fogger (it's the regular V4, but I'm expecting a black V4.3 too). Loving it but it can't keep up with my Ruthless E-Juice which is 85-90% VG. I usually can take a 2s pull, not longer. Then I have to tighten down the airholes, take 1-2 primers so I can take another one. This is @ .8Ohms on a mech.
As mentioned before, I'm currently looking to purchase this which should function like the bottle stuffing.

You think that will be enough to fix this problem, or should i look into importing some Cellucotton or something else mentioned here?
Also might be wrong thread, but what gauge wire did you use for your .4Ohm build?

Yeah, the little bag is probably all cotton and not rayon. Just wish they had the 40 foot size instead of this huge 500 foot box. If anyone wants some, just PM me with your address and I'll send you an envelope with some rayon rope. I'll have to check to see how much I can send and still keep it under an ounce.

-Pete

edit: about 3-4 feet weighs less than a half oz. I'll have to get some stamps...

Is product in the link the correct product to order? I checked next page and last and I'm a little lost.

Edit: Screw that I'm goin to Sally's 1.2 miles away.

No! That one is wrong.
Right one is e.g. here

You need to watch out for the "100% Rayon Fibers"
For the one you quoted it says "100% Pure Cotton". So it will still work as a regular cotton wick, but not Rayon :p
