did they come with a mod smokey? the smaller one might be 1mm wick from group buy, some came with my rta, the larger one looks to tightly wound to be group buy wick at 3mm, does it seperate easily? if it does use individual strands up to desired size, id try to burn it with a lighter to check theres no possibility of melting!

The thicker stuff was sent by clockwork with my rda.Thinner stuff was with 2nd hand rta.Thiner seems less strandy and just easyer i follow the videos and the thin stuff works a treat.:(

Top stuff is 3mm group buy and lower stuff is 1mm group buy, you can separate the 3mm into 1mm strands but it is a bit of a faff.

ok mate i got some of the 3mm, i unwind it and cut 2 strands from it, then put 1 strand down each hole and wrap the odd one round the back of the posts, i leave a short piece of coil wire at the back of the posts to fold down to hold wick in place, wrap it round the front and trim to length, it soaks up any spat out liquid and refeeds it to coil, been usin this method for months now no probs, try it, and pm me if you need any help, i only use rda and rta from clock, carnt wait for the new idea from harlequinn to get sorted clock will make a good job of that !

I found some 1mm wick at Heaven's Gifts and this works as well as the bulli wick and a lot cheaper, I have used it in the Odysseus as well (doubled up). They are out of stock at the moment but here is a link

Was wondering if that wick was any use.
Must get some when it's back in stock to try it out.

I just use two strands from the 3mm group buy wick. If you chop a bit off to the length you want it unravels pretty easily. I've never had a problem in the RTA or the RDA. I think it probably depends a lot on the combination of the resistance you go for and the type of juice you use - I usually go for 2 and a bit ohms and mainly PG juice which I guess is a fairly undemanding combination.
