Wicking Recurve

[John68]

Had the above for around 18 months , very happy with it
Have noticed lately, I use alien 0.49 coils and cotton bacon, I rewick, so cotton passes lightly through coil and is not tight, use at 32 watts, after a day start getting dry hits, when I check, the cotton has parted in the centre of the coil and I just pull it out from either side
Any tips gladly appreciated

Use more cotton, needs to be tightish when pulled through the coil.

1. Space your coil slightly incase your getting a hotspot you can't see

2. Buy better cotton

Bacon has its following like every other cotton but for some people it's shit and they have issues like your having so I'd move on to something like cotton god's or jellyfish as both are as easy to work with as bacon but don't fall apart like it does

I've never had a problem with bacon v2 but have heard some do. Strange isn't it.

Very strange because cotton seems more subjective than juice at times [emoji16]

I tried Fuzion cotton once because someone recommended it. Absolutely hated it.
