Honestly I used all sorts of different kinds never had a problem with any of it apart from a slight twitch in my eye from time to time

I have not noticed anything strange other than my hair has gone white. I just put that down to old age

As long as your hair is still hair and not cotton wool xD

just started doing cotton and coils in my new Smok Scar dripper. using .20 kanthal which is a bit to thin to do micro coils as its just to springy ( even after flaming ) and tends to ezsily overlap so just doing 5-6 wraps and then feeding through the cotton. ive found the hardest part is knowing how much cotton to leave when you trim and its all trial and error but at least its as cheap as chips. Have some .30 kanthal on order and my helping hands and magnifier has just arrived so hopefully can get the micro coils sorted and get better heat and a better vape as with the current coils they can be a little slow in heating up and had alot of problems getting them right even using the drillbit method. ALso with the smok scar darn thing can get quite hot ( as mentioned in todds reviews) but ive got around 20 drops put in of very berry cool and giving a decent enough vape ( though not really clouds yet until i sort my coils out properly. Still its fun to do and cheap

I'm a cotton freak.
I'd eat it if it tasted better.

I'll give you the same welcome I gave Damian. Hi Tom, love the vids. Welcome aboard.


The thing with cotton is, it swells. If you take that into account, the flow won't get strangled when it does.

mmmm ok love this thread x ive got a cute mini dripper (micro-d) and i use 0.2mm/awg32 on a 2-3 wrap around the ikkle screwdriver that came with it and cotton wick. love the vape i get but if i could get better please tell me xxx

More wraps of 0.28 or 0.3mm. More contact, lower resistance.
