"Wicking material used can be wire mesh, silica, etc. wrapped with kanthal or nichrome to bring out the flavor of your juice!!"

Hello folks, I'm curious about this line from the description. I was very interested reading that this mod could be used with silica as well as SS mesh. I've tried other genesis style attys before but could never get good results with the mesh. I much prefer using silica or cotton wicks. If anyone is using the iHybrid with anything other than SS mesh I would love to get some feedback and/or pictures of your setup.

Thanks in advance!

I just want to know the size.. I mean I have no clue how they measure springs, lol... How do you positively identify a spring? :)

... I really like how my Legacy works even without the spring... feels a little off, but works.

Should have seen me at Home Depot. The people looked at me like I was crazy. I was carrying the spring that came with the iHy asking people, where to find a stiffer version.

How does one differentiate springs?

Got a q for advanced Gennie users. Why can't we put a string of silica down the center tube of a mesh wick?

I keep looking down the huge tube in my wick and I just want to plug it (no dirty thoughts please).

I tried it. Didn't work well because it doesn't wick properly. I was disappointed when I tried after being used to great vapor with a reg Ss wick. What makes a Ss wick so wonderful is the fact that the juice is able to travel down that hole to the coils to be vaporized

I can't get the coil to stay put. Oxidizing is good, actually rolled a couple different wicks.

Everytime I wrap a coil and fire it, POP the positve leg burns off. I am talking after 20 attempts lastnight I continued to get the same result. Tried all kinds of different number of wraps, tightness

Any ideas?
