Hi Steve,
A few things to try (I use 90/10 vg/pg juice) burn the coil with your juice 5-6 times just drip and burn it off holding the pv strait up and down this can help a lot, but when the coils burn red it's not good if you re-wrap use some rolling paper on the wick where the coil wraps around and burn it with no juice and no juice in the tank ether (it must be dry) 4-5 times this will burn the excess off then just blow the remaining burnt paper off this will leave a base under the coil so hot spots are eliminated. I have fond on post type attys like these were you wrap the wire around a post they have a little more gap between the wick and post which can make hot spots or shorts a little more problematic than other setup's. This rolling paper trick was very helpful for me. I do use both 325 and 400 mesh and have found that with 400 if it's not wicking to hold the pv at a 3 oclock position it will help wick thick juice.

hiya, ash!
i believe that's cigarette rolling paper being used!
Ammm I will try to fined how can do that , or when I will get mine if I will face the same problem I will ask for the way exactly.
I have to run a few errands and will back later and answer any PM's or questions.
don't you have tobacco shops in qatar? i'm sure some people roll their own cigarettes! but don't worry - you might never have this problem with the wick!
Ok silly question time. Can someone give me an idea of the resistance Choppers coils are, so I know if I will need to plan on redoing before I try it the first time. Not gonna ask him to special do one for lower if he does for the higher, just want to have an idea to start with.
Ok thanks, I know so many have VV I wouldn't have been surprised if they where coiled for higher, so thought I would ask.
I'm running a 3/4 wrapped coil with 32 kanthal right now that measures out at 1.5Ω. It rocks even at 3.7v!
Check out scubabatdan or igetcha69 video tutorial on this is setup. I haven't needed to use it on my Zen but on the line I used to have it worked very well, some will never see this issue come up (hot spots or shorts) but if you do this rolling paper trick works very good at eliminating it.

Hey all... Whats the deal with that guy who had the 275 mesh? I did a search of this thread and got no results, Was there a link to his supplier for the mesh?
TIA
TIA
morning, feller! no idea as to a link but i think chopper ordered some of that. maybe he can help
Hey Tibs,
I found it, the guys name is Riptrippers and I found him on youtube. Its 270 mesh from McMaster Carr and its 304 type of mesh. He also has a video saying to use 2 wicks instead of 1. Put a much thinner wick insidew the regular wick and it doubles the flav. I'm gonna have to try that.

lol! looking at the size of the wick i'll be lucky if i can pull off one, never mind a wick in the wick! 
hope your recovery is going well!

I am doing great, all things considered. Yesterday was my 1st follow up w the surgeon. The x-rays show a perfect hardware setup. You should see the size of the screws. I saw a lifesize xray and I was amazed. They go all the way thru my spine, and they are cone shaped like a huge Siam mods drip tip. I seriously thought of that as soon as I saw them. I am walking a 1/4 mile twice a day, and they started to ween me off the brace. So all is well!!
