I've had absolutely no issues with chain vaping it. Just make sure the mesh you run inside isn't too thick or you'll choke it at the wick hole.

Allright, the only way to know is to wick up some when my order arrives. Thanx for the tip.

Hi, my name is jim, and i am addicted to this stuff.:lol:

You know i did'nt want to vape fibery matieral's, but i'll give it a shot.

I was in the same boat with gennies at least. Didn't think I'd ever use anything but 400 mesh, but, the kool aid tastes REALLY good....

I am not sure myself Larzis but I did order some of the Nextel last night. I have been holding off on ordering anything until i decided and after last nights show I have taken all the SS cable out of my devices.

Lily I looked today for the replay and couldn't find it..but was there talk of not using the SS cable? I ordered some Nextel tonight

I was really concerned when I first saw the stuff, but I'm telling you, I've been using it exclusively for a few weeks now, in 6 devices, and I can't find a stray fiber under any top caps, etc... As soon as its wet, there's nothing coming off.

PS, it'll come with the ends taped... moisten where you're going to cut, then re-tape the end of the extra so it doesn't fray.

re: chain vaping, I think i'm currently in a nic coma trying to out-vape the stuff. Then I took off the cap and fired for 18 consecutive seconds with vapor pouring off before top coil just barely glowed. Let off for a few seconds, and did it again...

I really like the stone wicks, they work amazing, hopeing that i don't get dry fiber hits

Torch the skinny mesh wick until red and dunk in water a couple times to stiffen it up.
I used half of a used fat wick, rolled it tight, and found it fit into 1.5 Eko. As Andy mentioned you can make more room by smooshing, very technical, the Eko. Than slide it on. Torch the shti out of it, blow it off and put it in wick hole. Torching the Eko will stiffen it up and provide a better Vape. Also cleans hairs off.

Thanks man. Will try that next time. Have to say though, Eko seems to be working fine even without the mesh wick. Came back to it after sitting awhile and it is vaping great. matter of fact, I have to be careful not to tip it too much as it seems to flood easy with too much tipping.

Really looking forward to givng the other stuff as try too.

I must concur on the Nextel!! Quynh mentioned it to me about a month ago so i dug it out of the archives and have been replacing ss with nextel as the need arises. So far I have not had a bad set-up. Good idea to put a small wick inside. I have been wraping around a pin for rigidity then removing the pin after everything is tightened down. Its great stuff, no shorts or leaking and creates thick warm vapor!

BTW Ripp, I think I have a few years on ya.....lol

OK I do not remember who said it so I am not sure of the info. What was said last night is that SS rope can contain a few things we do not want to vape (someone said nickel) and Mike said "I wouldnt vape it on a bet then". I was paying enough attention in between trying to work to catch that and not being totally sure of what is in the rope i bought (it isnt like there is an ingredients list on it) I am giving up on it.

I missed that part I was trying to chat and get work done! LOL and yeah I was doing the job where I have to use my brain so it was tough multitasking as you might have noticed! Took me ten minutes to figure out he was saying no brass in the SW (add it to the idiot saga that I couldnt even pay attention!)
not all of it has that on it. kat said check to see if magnet would stick to it. if so don't use it.

nope. he did the carto hybrid with three tubes. gave away 4 of those. he showed the ss and gold plated version that will be in the first limited set. explained the diff between the mechanical and the ones with the funny names. his bet tester showed the gun metal. he explained one still needs to be pushing the sw and other PVS to the side when firing. talked about the reason why brass contacts are not the way to go(unless you like to clean :p). etc. etc.
