Short wicks vs long wicks...

[Ruth-Ann]

I am just wondering about the difference between short and long wicks...
My starter kit came with long wicks but I find to get a good hit I have to tilt the juice to the top anyway.
Should I get short wicks when I buy more clearomizers or does it really matter??

In my experience it does not matter. I've had long wicked clearos that didn't keep the coil wet even with tilting all the time. My favorite right now has short wicks and works great. I do have to tilt more when the juice level gets low, but I never get dry hits. I think the clearo design, manufacturing tolerances and materials used are more important.

Well I found that the smaller diameter wicks instead of the bigger fat single double wicks are more key, when I rebuild my vision vivi nova heads I am using the .6mm or .8mm wicks in bundle, tried 2.5mm in 2 peices and they werent good even making room for them, I figured out that I was getting alot more flavor on my 1.8ohm Vivi heads and noticed they were all the small diameter long wicks so my thoughts are small diameter and am using them long which I don't think is the key but your opinion might vary

You can get long ones and then cut them down if you want.
