I used to be able to keep up on the days until the wife retired a couple years after me, now they just kinda run together. I know Tuesdays, and Thursdays, cause we have standing lunch dates with neighbors. Other than that we just kinda take it as it comes.

Vapors Choice Cotton is also fantastic stuff and superior to cotton bacon and native wick imo. I really like the RxW but hate the fact its $9/ft. I like to double or even triple the strands on themselves so it doesn't last as long if I am wrapping a buncha coils. Once its in a coil, it lasts much longer than cotton but with a buncha mods, it'd take a buncha feet to get them all wicked up. A puck of VCC wicks everything up and there's still 99.9% leftover for rewicking, as is required with any cotton wick. $9 per foot must be worth it because I keep buying the stuff but I will never have all the mods and atties wicked with it. I get VCC from Amazon here and ended up with 4 pucks. that should last well into the next decade!
If I'd had as many devices as you have, my wicking RxW in every one of them, I'd been good to go for at least a year on each device before having to do it again!!

I have one with a year old build. Dry burn and brush the metal off, looks good to go again and again! Total mind punk tho, as it seems to me there would be some residual gunk in the nooks and crannies I cant get to. Tastes fine, vapes fine, everythings fine but still... its a year old! Plus, from a different view, it'd probably cost at least $90 for wick to do all the mods for a year where $12 of VCC will last well over a year. More labor by rewicking but worth it when you can get new fresh wick in there when needed and not have to decide between a new mod or some wick.
Another thought about the RxW, have you ever noticed when you cut the dry wick, there are tons of teeny tiny fibers let loose? I am curious if those fibers give a bit of throat hit (or worse) as they are pulled into my lungs on a draw. I have learned to wet the wick before cutting and to not touch it as much as possible and (obviously) try to keep it fully saturated with juice but I cant imagine once that stuff is in the coil, there would be no fibers relieved of their position. I must admit, I used to use RxW much more than cotton, bringing it with me from my dripping days (roller coaster builds anybody?) but started weening myself off the more this thought was in my mind. I still have it in 2 or 3 mods but lately I've been rockin the VCC heavily.
