Success with the Aga-td!!

[Truetopath]

So a week later I finally got my aga-td up and running. I tried with mesh for a week straight using just about every technique known to man (except the one that works lol). I tried silica and it just didn't give me the vape I was expecting. Then enter cotton!! I pulled the mesh from the coil that I wound tonight after still having no luck with it, and used a cotton wick instead. I'm beyond thrilled with the vapor and the flavor. It's hitting a little lighter than my dripper but the flavor is out of this world, and rewicking is going to be a piece of cake. Sorry for the overload of joy, I'm just so excited I got it running the way I want.

Great to hear you figured out a way that works for you! I've been using SS mesh since March or April this year in mine and it works well for me, but there was definitely a learning curve. I'm going to have to try cotton one of these days. Did you make your wick long enough so it goes to the bottom of the tank, or did you leave it short and you tilt the tank to wet the wick?

hav'nt got one yet but i reckon it would be awesome with cotton!!!

In Gennys, the cotton is typically run down about half way down the tank and it is tipped when vaped to facilitate wicking. Hope this helps. Good luck and have fun!

I actually ran mine all the way to the bottom, but I still tilt it when I vape, but I've had no wicking problems at all. It's a great vape for sure!!

I have an AGA-TD in the mail.
I'm using cotton in all my RBAs now.
Dual wick; skinny wick to RTA tank bottom for me.

Totally awesome flavor.!

I've only built 2 gennis this being me second, first was cable sleeved w ecowool kinda pain in the ..., doesn't taste near as good as cotton on this build.


I'm super amazed at how well the cotton wicks. I'm not tilting obviously but I'm draining a Sony 30V fast and is saying wettttttt!
