Super excited about getting my Penelope...

[Xaiver]

...but is this what it's going to be like? Waiting and waiting to get wire/wick? I've been on the notify me list for the wick/wire, and it sent me an email tonight while I was at work. An hour later, I get home and hop over to the COV site to order some....and the NR wire and ceramics are on Notify me! again.

I don't want to buy pre-cut wires. I ordered a rebuildable so that I could rebuild it to whatever Ohms that I wanted. I understand that everybody that's got an Ody or a Pene are looking to get their hands on this stuff, but why isn't there enough to go around?

I feel like I just bought a Rolls Royce that only comes with 2 tires, and the manufacturer stopped making them. This is rediculous.

Someone tell me that I didn't just sign up to stand in line forever... Please...

If its wires u can always buy the roll like 100 feet or 200 feet.

This is my first step into the rebuildable world, you know...go big or go home. So, I literally have nothing, and don't entirely know what I'm doing. So, I'm pretty sure that my first wire is going to get destroyed within an hour or two. I was hoping to buy some, along with wick, tonight. Enough to last me a week or two, so that I'm not sitting here with something that I really like but can't use.

Where else can I get R wire, NR wire and Wick? The COV site says they're out of stock already.

resistance wire ---> Kanthal A-1 32 awg resistance heating wire 200 ft, | eBay

nr wire ----> Fine Silver Wire for Jewelry, Wire Wrapping, Earrings by Rio Grande Jewelry Making Supplies
(with the nr wire, go with 28 or 30 gauge)

you should be ok with the wick CoV supplies for a while... You get around 3 feet I think.

Okay, I'm calmer now.

Thanks for the help folks.

any time also remember to to add a small dab of vasoline to the center pin's o ring to prolong wear and tear. Imeo mentions it in one of his trick tips video.
