Three Tanks, Nine Liquids...

I'm also using a cotton wicked coil right now. You do have to make them yourself, or you can rewick a stock head or a previously built head. If I want to replace the current wick I just pull the old wick out with tweezers or something, the I use a little scrap of wire like a needle threader to pull a small bit of cotton ball through the coil. I use another bit of cotton ball for the flavor wick. You can't dry burn a cotton wick, so to dry burn you have to take the old wick out, then dry burn, then put a new wick in.

I have to look into this. I like the idea of using cotton. When a coil breaks, is it the wick that breaks or the heating element? Can one just buy a coil and replace the wick every week or so and keep the coil indefinitely?

I make my own coils. I can reliably say in my dripper on my RM2 I have one coil still going strong after 6 weeks. I give it a good dry burn and change the wick on it at least once a week.

I have never seen JUST the prebuilt coil sold. I think really to do it effective you will have to make your own coil.

My suggestion would be to just get enough blank cartomizers (not carto tanks) to be equal to the quantity of flavors you have.

Make sure they are not drilled for carto tanks
Of course label them some how
keep the "condoms" on them and then you can carry several flavors with you easily to try when you are out and about

Just remember to NOT vape them dry (when you get a burnt taste) just keep topping off with the correct eliquid and they should last a while until you know which three to keep in the tanks

or do like I did (and still do) and just stock up on clearos, tanks, RDAs and RBAs (got a kayfun lite clone on Monday, ordered a second one yesterday if there is ever a tv show episode of "vape hoarders" I will probably end up on it )

Just my 2 cents

Well I have my order from Vape Chef and Nude Nic on the way... I was thinking of getting some disposable tops just for tasting, then I would know which ones I wanted in a tank and which ones might need to steep. The dripping I had to google, lol. I think that might be a little advanced for me???

I think I might need to google all this before I decide.. I'm confused between clearos, cartos, cartomizers and cart 'o groceries, lol lol lol...

I started with 7 tanks, now I find out I only rotate through 3 or 4. I use carto's. For my new flavors I will drip them and if they earn a place in rotation, then I will either wait until a carto is fried or go ahead and replace. a $2 carto that lasts a week is alot cheaper than a $6.50 pack of cigs a day. I am finding out the more I vape the more I am getting tuned. I do keep one tank filled with something like a nutty tobacco or clove or something totally different from all of my fruits so I shock my tounge back to life when vape tounge sets in.
