Morning all and happy Sunday. I ordered some 1mm eckowool for my RM2. Have not received it yet but would like to know if there is anything that I need to know prior to using it. Do you have to boil it first? Torch it? etc. Also what I ordered was hollow. I hope that is what I was supposed to order. I guess I was not aware that both hollow and solid are available. I have been using sterile cotton in my coils and use darkzero's jig for making my coils. I normally like 28g kanthal at about 1.5ohms. I am hoping I will be able to wick this thru the coil without difficulty. Any suggestions from the experts here????

i dont torch or boil my ekowool

i blowtorch wick and coil anyway - it helps reduce the spring in the wire and burns any oils or grease off.

All that stuff is hollow - it's used as shielding/protection for electrical cables and is measured by the inside diameter - the hollow bit! I found that to thread it it was easiest if dipped in a bit of liquid and kinda corkscrewed into the coil - seems to fray less.

It's good stuff, wicks pretty well (not as fast as cotton) but can be dry burned and lasts for ages, by which i mean weeks and weeks.

Thanks guys! Your always here to help me out! I will let you know how it goes when I get it. I am liking the cotton fine but sometimes burn it. So thought I would try the eckowool. Seems like I go thru 4X the juice using the RM2 vs the shorty cartos. Maybe because I fear burning the cotton and over squonking even though I know the juice goes back into the bottle. But sure do go thru more juice than with the carto's.

I got suckered into buying the bacon flavoring as well *shudder* I couldn't believe something that sounded so delicious could smell/taste so utterly vile
