Rayon wick, better flow, flavor, saturation and Nic Hit!

[tchavei]

This sounds interesting. Problem will be to find the ones without scents and other stuff inside.

Last time I went through the tampon section most of those sold here state "rayon free" lol.

I'll check again next time I pass there. Maybe those no name ones are better.

Yeah EU like to ban things for little to no reason. I hear they have a ban on harmless borax too. Which I have found can actually have many health benefits from boron vitamin it contains. As well as ridding the body of harmful things.

So is this going to be the "once a month" wick we've all been waiting for?

 

[HolmanGT]

Lol, well I can see that it will go 300ml.!. Even 325. Just got to have some decent vaping conditions. The last one was really abused hard and it made it around 270s..

The pillow, it would need to be untreated, it could have added bedding fire safety additives

The new source I'm testing is actually much smaller than a mattress...

Jeremy,

Anything from bedding to stuff intended for clothing the risk of it being treated with a fire resistant chemicals IMHO is almost a given. I don't know who is more tough on that but I know the Federal boys and a lot of States have some pretty strict rules about fire safety when it comes to bedding, clothing and anything that is used around children (infants).

 

[JeremyR]

Yep, thats why I mentioned it sir.

I also recommend avoiding any rayon processed beyond raw fiber. Even the yarns.

 

[PaulBHC]

I will resist the temptation to make fire resistant tampon jokes.

 

[JeremyR]

OMG! What a mental picture.



The Rayon Bullet...I like it. Does anyone else think Kotex University when they see KU?

Lol, rayon bullets, shoot them out of mini cannons at vape conventions. Omg

Here's the quick video I made today. Just had a few minutes to wick... set up my phone haphazardly and recorded this video.

Video turned out pretty decent with audio... Uploaded in high quality this time. Orientation sucks but next time..

I went a little too tight at the end but it vaped out after a short bit. The wick taste is neutral. Its vaping great!

A Look at KU Rayon in the second half.

Rayon Wick Tutorial, with twist method.

Here it is later, I did go a little dense on it but, as you can see good coil contact gives the ability to run it dry.. I wasnt even getting a dry hit in this pic and you can see how dry the rayon is.

Paul,

I love your view on things and sense of humor mostly because I don't have to feel alone in my somewhat bizarre "free floating" thoughts.

 

[JeremyR]

It will take a bit to feel this rayon out.. I know I wicked it too tight but I can't decide if there may be a little bit of residual bleaching agent left on it.. They would want it completely clean and free of pathagens... Will have to see, I'll rinse some for my next wicking and see if there's any difference. Also try one unrinsed with a little less density. But it will be a while before I do.

 

[PaulBHC]

Don't be Debbie Downer now that you got us all to run out and buy a box.

Since I found out they use titanium dioxide in milk to make it whiter even in the hypoallergenic kinds, I have my doubts that they are so strict around pillows... You never know though [emoji14]

Is it..?.. People boil cotton all the time... I'm not even saying boil just a short soak or rinse.

Just its only been less than a day so.. I like to cover the bases.

At any rate it tastes just like bottle rayon. I think I just over wicked it changing to the twist method it's easy to get the density in.., its really tight in there, I know its tighter than it should be.

 

[PaulBHC]

Is it..its still really tight in there, I know its tighter than it should be.

That's what she said

 

[Kingboomer]

That's what she said

LOL!! Beat me to it Paul

[JeremyR]

OK...
I pulled a couple needle sized pieces out and the flavor is better.... It may have just been the normal muting from being too tight. I had that issue last time I wicked Sally's and had to pull some back out.

I've heard of people putting them in their bug out bags. I guess there are a lot of uses for them in survival, filtering larger particles from water, starting a fire and even stuffing them in wounds to stop bleeding.

 

[JeremyR]

Yeah your right, I've seen them injected into bullet wounds too.

Tony,

I don't know about milk. The wack-o types here only respond to actual disasters. They are the type that never say anything about the fertilizer plant next door to them until after it explodes than they want rules on top of rules.

A few years back there were some industrial clothing and baby's bedding incidents that caused a lot of human suffering. So in this case I don't hold a grudge against the after the fact complainers except I wish they had complained before people died.

Off topic - Thanks for linking me to the SXj mini thread. Now I want one. I may have to sell off some of my ProVaris' before you can't even give them away.

 

[odivad]

Well I see some other brands are 100% rayon as well.

I use rayon from "o.b." for about a month already and very happy with it.
