The vertical is quite awesome. I'm using two different verticals :). Glad you like it.

Finally got around to doin a vertical build on my Rose with the rayon. It's unbelievable what a difference it makes. Wicks better, breathes better, more flavor, more cloud, able to crank it up like I want it. Thanks again for the help :)

I've actually done 5 different builds in my Roses, and all of them were fantastic. Its a very versatile atty. The vertical really opens the airflow, and is the easiest to wick.

Not only is it easier to wick,it seems to be easier to get the coil set in the holes also.My 2nd build in my rose was a vertical.The first time i coiled it with a regular horizontal,and it took me 25 minutes just to get both legs in the holes.On the vertical,i had both legs in,tightened down,and the wicks wrapped in less than 10 minutes,way easier haha.After doing this vertical,i am convinced,this is the way to go with these atties,still not a great airflow,but alot better than the standard way.

I get plenty of air flow for me. After doin the vertical I have to adjust the air down a bit for the draw I like. It was too tight before with a horizontal build.

Both my Rose Stumpys, one coiled horizontal and the other vertical.




The horizontal is wicked with rayon. I tried rayon in the vertical but after a couple of tanks, it started gurgling and leaking. The problem seemed to be that spaces developed between the coil and the rayon wrap, and juice flowed to the core of the coil. After switching to cotton, the leaking stopped. The cotton expanded and held the cotton packing tight against the coil - no spaces.

That's interesting, Pete. I'm doing better with rayon in all 3 of mine, including the two verticals. Its funny how different people work better with different wicking materials :)

I had completely replaced cotton with rayon for everything, drippers, cartos, rta's. But had to regress to good 'ol cotton for these Rose verticals. I tried to use rayon, packing it loosely and then really tight, but couldn't stop the gurgling/leaking. You say that it takes little time to wick your verticals, but it takes me a long time to pack the ceramic cup with cotton. So I think that's the difference; we pack the wick differently. I'll try to take pics next time I rewick. But it may be a long time before I need to rewick. These vertical wicks last a long time, easily two to three times longer than my horizontals.

I have some of how I do it, but tend to have issues posting pics on here. I never have flooding. Sometimes the opposite and have to open the jc more. If anyone needs the pics, PM me with your email address and I can email them to you.

ETA: I'll email the pics to Marc and see if he can post them for me.

Im loving my Rose V2, have build the reg coil once so far and rewicked quite a few times wtih no dry hits. I had no problems setting up my reg mico coil with 28g kanthal and KGD thru coil and run thru the slots back and forth like in the how to by Eden, so far, with 80VG. Love it, its on par with my Ody V2 as far as taste. Ive been using my Odys for almost 3 years so I cant really say anything about the build ease, but even though I was medicated the day it came in, I got it on the second try and refills are easy.

Im sure once I have it longer set up will become second nature as with my Odys. Only thing that sort of bothers me is the length of the V2, but I did order a shorty kit and another Rose V2-S. Very well made and thought out. I would say that the Rose and the Ody are equal, with the Rose having an advantage of no need for twisting.

I have one set up the way you do (single diagonal coil build). I love that build, too.

I also did one dual with 2 of those coils, and the vape was identical. So I do the single coil for longer battery life.

It worked! 7-8 wraps of 29 AWG kanthal around a 2mm drill bit to get a 1.2 ohm vertical coil. I added an extra step to wrap a thin layer of rayon soaked with VG juice to form a thin cocoon around the coil. So far so good, no gurgling. Thanks roxy!







The hole with an insulated sleeve is the positive connection. The longer top lead goes there and the shorter bottom lead goes into the negative hole.

    Thanks, Marc! 1. I run a wick through the slots on each side of the coil. 2. Trim each tail up against the outside of each wick slot. 3. I cut two very tiny pieces off one of the scrap tails and cover my coil leads gently.
    I haven't been following this thread lately but I decided to try a vertical build in one of my Rose V2 's the other day . I wound up circling the coil with rayon and packing it in the cup . It worked but it drastically cut down on air flow . I popped on here tonight looking for alternatives and spotted this . Ripped my wick out and went with your method , it's perfect ! Thanks Roxy ! :)
