I actually have been using KGD and cellucotton hybrid wick. Its sturdy and doesn't seem to flop down

I like the Pima Cotton (Angel Hair as its now called) much better than silica or eko wool. I make one loop big enough to make sure it flops to the side, but still large enough to hit the filler. Flopping to the middle is not good.
The Ekowool was my first choice before over silica. - Used loop on both sides and they never flopped. If I hadnt tried the Angel Hair I would still be using it. Never was a fan of cotton balls.

Prometey v3 is in stock. Just ordered one and an Eagle, some drip tips and other goodies.
Ordered a P3 myself; thanks D! Can't wait.
Although I wish I had; I have a couple P2's and a couple Achilles, but this was just too too interesting to pass on.
I've wanted a little more air since I'm using 1.7 ohms coils and up to 6volts so I think this P3 is going to be the cats pajamas!

Ordered one V3. It's near from my French home now 
It seems it was ( v2 ) the last time Prometey was usable as a pretty good "some hours" dripper.
Chimney looks so short on V3 !
I'll need to use it "as required", with some filler to retain juice over the coil. As required !
Good step, but kind of steep step for me, my "fiber freak" builds drink a lot of juice, becomes heavy, goes down and don't keep the contact with the filler.
I saw some tips and tricks on Aleksandr Facebook, and will try them.
How do you use it ? I mean without silica, with cotton or similar fiber.
Please excuse my poor english ...
Thanks

I'm sure Dspin will have some discussion on best builds, but I use silica, or japanese cotton pads, and have tried different cotton fibers too.
The silica holds up top easiest but the flavor is better with cotton.
For my cotton pads, I make a typical wick, but when I build the coil, when i trim the excess wire, i form a little loop at the screw head to hold the cotton up at least on one post.
When I screw the chamber cap on it catches the cotton and holds it up to the filler. If your cotton is too long it will double back on top of the coil and burn, so it has to be kind of short.
@ ukeman : Thanks, i'll try to do something with the excess wire to hold the cotton up.
Nice idea !
Nice idea !
I'll post pic later.
I make just a small loop like the shape of a tennis racket (sans strings)
It has to be on the back side of the left post (when you screw the top cap chamber on)... so the twisting (to the right) will push the wick towards that wire hoop. As long as it stays above the post its good; make sure your filler is all the way full; not below the line; I usually pull the filler out about .5mm so its touching.
If you get burnt hit, and you know there's juice, it usually means the cotton wick has doubled over to the coil and could be too long
Got my P3 in!
Ok first off from looking, and something i didn't notice before: this one looks like its strictly a top filler feeder vs. P2 top and bottom per the tall air post allows you to add extra juice up the air post.
In the P2 I normally fill the filler AND add close to a ml of juice at the bottom, and leave one tail of the wick going down to the base, and one up to the filler.
The P3 has a short air post; you could hardly call it a post, but more of a nub.
about 1.5mm high. A little worried about leaking but we shall see. And that's why i say its a strictly top filler atomizer; all juice will have to come from top (and what few drops you can add down the drip tip if needed).
That said, the P3 has adjustible air and larger air hole; not huge, but just right!
more later.

rushed a wrap; 8wrap, 30g kanthal, 1.7 ohms but you get the point about the loops to catch the wick.
wicked.
On Ranger at 5volts:
Vapes excellent! at full air just right.
I intentionally dripped 1ml into it (at a tilt) after filling the filler and got no leaks. NO LEAKS. I could try for more but why push it? I think tilting keeps the juice up at the filler for the most part so this should be good.
