Dave - I haven't had that experience of the bottom wick being in there really tight. In fact, the first few times I cleaned wicks, the bottom wick came right out on me -- maybe I was squeezing and rinsing a little too rough! My eyesight without my old lady reading glasses is so bad, I didn't even see that little coil in there. I just washed and dried the wicks and put them right back in the "slot" and vaped away. Worked FINE, too. I must have just gotten lucky -- felt really stupid when I did them again with glasses on. "WTH is THAT thing???" I know my buddy JohnnyDill can answer this question when he gets here-- I PM'd him about it a few days ago. If we can figure this out does it count as "rebuilding" a coil or anything cool like that??? I SOOOOOO want to tell someone I can do it! LOL!

I felt like that my first time, too. Summer of 74.
Wait. What are we talking about again?
DaveOno - they just pull right out! You might have to give it a gentle tug the first time
LMAO if he was putting it in he would have known that
EEEEEEVIE LUV
Soooorrrryyyy, I tried so hard not to but I had to do it.......
Did you try threading the Teflon (or tape) through first and "grabbing" the wick? That's how I did it

Tuggin, twisting, in, out, i'm getting frayed!!
Mine slide easily side to side when wet, if they're burnt I always just slide it slightly to the side. As for re wicking them, well I plan on trying but we all know in my case it's just gonna end up broken
OK, I tried it with 4 coils today. One did move, I moved it to a fresh spot, and off I go. The other I ruined, broke the coil. Oh, well, I have spare parts for the others now. The next two didn't move, I didn't force them. No means no.
Oh, the one I broke was so encrusted, I didn't feel too bad. Wow, that wire is thin. Thinner than the high string on my Strat at .009

Yes, I broke one trying to get a new wick through it....oh well, guess I'll get around to taking it apart one day LOL
They're the same as Kanger T1s, and there are lots of videos on you tube for rebuilding!
Well, whatever is in my drawer that I bought to replace them with LOL Too many Ts
Kanger t2s
Just do the Teflon tape trick when replacing the coil wick. Works every time! I have replaced wicks on many of my Triton coils.
