You'd have to wear off the entire surface :)

I just received the last lot of the vapeonly coils from heavens gifts. I discovered that the 1.8ohm (I ordered a few to check) are the large hole different wicking. I am working through the difference with heavens gifts and I can't confirm any of the others. The 2.10ohm I got were still old versions.

Dear Santa,
I promise I'll spend more time at my computer if I find one of these under my tree this year.
Love Max.

If I spent any MORE time at my computer, you'd have to remove me SURGICALLY from the chair! :lol: A chairassectomy! :lol:

I wick my Kanger BCC's with cotton not silica. And to my experience flavor wicks are just to create burned flavor.
... they can also prevent flooding and/or little squirts of liquid coming up to your mouth when firing. But expecially squirts/spatters do not really happen to tootle puffers with moderate wattage. - And there is also a little trick to enhance cotton quantity without a "flavor wick" and this is to tug the cotton just a tinly littlest bit back into the chamber into the the two openings on both sides. Pics show better what I mean:

Hmm... I get the "hot spats" from every rda I've ever tried, which is why I use the knucklehead driptips, or that extender that angles the driptip, so the hot spats go straight up but don't curve around to hit my mouth. Someone told me it was because I vape at fairly low wattage, 8-10w. Maybe I'll try some type of "flavor wick" over the coil and see if that helps.

Really? I also vape low, preferably never over 8w but without hot spats and definitely withouth flavor wick. Maybe liquid composition (water?) plays a role too?

nice and fluffy :)
Yep Sally Salon Coil cotton. nice aligned fibers. roll lightly between fingers and from what I can figure out works like one of the Scottish Roll wicks without all the fuss of stretching out a cotton pad.
Never a dry or burned hit unless the tank goes dry.
Chain vape all you want.

The wick slots are enlarged to around 2 mm.

I like my Logitech keyboard. It has a Delete button that's larger than the Enter button :lol:
I hate my brand new Logitech keyboard because it SPRINGS to positions no one can predict. But because the mouse is also new - and both work wireless - no
idea if and what interferes. Or if this Logitech beast does not like my Mac (because my Mac did not recognize it). -

This is only an occasional rant ... I should work and this keyboard does not let me.

Could be that I guess, since I always vape 85% PG, it's very thin. I don't really worry about it, since I got that angled extender, and a nice stainless knucklehead, but it does puzzle me how others can vape RDAs at low ohms or high wattage and not get juice in the mouth, so I thought there might be something to that idea of it happening because I vape at such low wattage.

I don't get that behavior from Kayfuns, at least not regularly, and I think the long chimney may be why. Sometimes I might get it just a little if just breaking in a new wick, but as the wick settles down, so does the hot-spat problem. But RDAs, the coil is so much closer to the mouth, and no chimney; every RDA I've ever used does that to me.

I have a Corsair Vengeance K60 mechanical which you ca beat on all day long.
k60_front_us_r_v2_1.png

I think the "mechanical" nature is why I love IBM keyboards so much, aside from the fact that the letters are spaced PROPERLY (for those of us who actually learned to type ON A TYPEWRITER!) -- nice clicky noise and feel. I had to get rid of my last one because the spacebar died. :(

These newfangled "soft touch" keyboards TOTALLY SUCK. Aside from the fact that they're not spaced correctly, there is SUPPOSED TO BE some feedback from the keys, not dead silence.

I really wish new keyboard manufacturers would get it thru their dense heads that you can't just change the layout spacing willynilly and expect touch-typists to be able to type accurately on the stupid things. It's like deciding to make the white keys narrow and the black keys wide, on a piano -- it just doesn't work like that!
