Only 40ft! Lord knows we'll need all 500ft >.>

Quick question: I just purchased 500ft of this stuff. Planning on building chimney in my KFL, am I wrapping the cellucotton like Rip in his chimney build vid?

I wouldn't. That was the way I first did it and posted in superX micro coil thread. It was also done with rayon but nobody caught it at that time... It's hard to get even consistent contact with the entire coil top to bottom 360*... I recommend a core wrap of rayon first, to get even consistent contact with entire coil. Then, if you want to do wrap around wicks to hold it you can.... but I like packing the chamber first couple times Expect to add more like I described a few posts ago regarding the taifun vertical, because you won't judge it right the first couple times but its easy to add more with a needle or two.

Actually in this pic you can see the wick isn't touching the coil by the channels. I ended up tucking a little in the cup near the channels to bring that rayon in to touch.
And for those looking... That's literally how wet the rayon gets without flooding. That's one of the remarkable things about it in tank rbas.

See the link in my signature for good vertical builds. The first post is the first way I used rayon successfully. You can see rayon builds in the beginning and towards recent posts.

So just an update...a few days ago I said I could taste the Rayon. I was using way too much.

Since then I got the density down. Been using it in Reos with Cyclone and Chalice, high end dripper atties at very low ohms, Kayfun, Aqua and Fogger v4 and just today in the Heron.

All performing marvelously.

Just went to Sally and got 500ft of rayon now. It will be my family heirloom to my grandchildren when they turn 18. Just got to have kids now.

Just rebuild again using more rayon than the first. Seems to work fine for now. See how it produces after it is broken in. So far no better or worse than cotton (but it's early yet)

View attachment 345928

Can you post another pic now that its broke in?

If you can post a picture of your wick next time, before you thread, it that would be helpful also.

When it's wicked right it should be instantly better.

Same here Sedge, I packed it way to tight and got the same slightly off taste. I'm not finding the mentioned shrinkage of this material being an issue, I use the same quantity as if it was cotton and it cured the taste issue, all 4 of my KF's are performing extremely well and I believe this material will hold up way better than cotton over multiple tankfuls.

I went through 2-3 times more juice today with CCr. I does vape well and using juice is the proof to me.

I used about the same amount as cotton I think. I did find that increasing the watts or volts diminished the flavor but no burnt taste. Decreasing found the sweet spot and it still gave good cloud. 1.7 or so single coil ended up at 7w, same as most of my clearos.

As previously noted make sure the box numbers are

44130------40 ft box
44043------3lb box
44060------500 ft box

The 10ft pack is 100% cotton and not 100% rayon.

I'm here at SBS now. The 10 ft was cotton. They don't have the 40ft. The 3 lb is bigger than the 500 ft so I bought the 44060.

We all need to stop buying 500 ft and figure out a way to network on this. :facepalm :[emoji1]

This rayon is mind blowing. I finally am able to use my r91 again thanks to it. Never could get it to wick right with cotton so I just gave up on it and went to dripping. Now I can't get it to mess up for anything. This sh** is the bees knees

Hey, that's good news... maybe with rayon I can get my nano kit to stop giving me that dry hit business.

I just pulled a black snail cotton wick out of my wife's RSST. The coil was a chunk. Put the CCr in the coil and then in the wick hole. We will see in a few days. My T2 with RY4 still looks clean. The T2 with DIY NET the CCr is darker but the coil is still clean. I went through over 2ml of each today. I normally use a ml to 1.5ml of each plus assorted other stuff to about 5ml total. I think I will go through 6-8 in all today.

try it. I highly doubt you will be disappointed.

Oh I'm planning to! A very kind and generous person here offered to PIF me some, so I'm just waiting for that. I'd buy some online, but I'd really rather try it out first, before buying it.

I can't wait! :banana:

The store locator shows two Sally's in Lawrenceville Ga. One near a Ross and one near a Publix. A bunch more within 20 miles.
