FWIW with all my big coil builds larger than 2.5mm it is NOT less is more on wicking... they require massive wicking and I wick the cotton way tighter in those coils than I did in those back in the 2.5mm and smaller coil cotton days. I "manicure" the cotton if the tank needs that for them to work flawlessly AND don't have long tails down in my tanks.

I also really need to pick up some 4mm RxW XL to go with my 3mm. The 4mm would be the cats meow in some of my tanks.

Yip @Spydro as I found out this morning...

I really need to try RxW again... I have a small amount left after giving most of it away to mates who really love it... I have never taken to it but the thought of wick that lasts a month or more is really appealing... maybe I'll dig it out and try it in a Serpent. ;-)

Nothing can beat RxW if built right and it will work in the particular atty. I have ran the same RxW wick in some of my Reo atty's for 6 months to much longer with some liquids by just dry burning it now at then. The wire gives up long before the RxW does. I seldom pushed my Reo builds above 60W though.

Fully name is Ready X Wick and it's a ceramic wicking material that looks like silica wick but can be dry burnt clean after use and start all over again... it lasts and last and the Reonauts that use it report wicks lasting 2-6 months as in @Spydro's case.

I managed to get some from a mate in the USA along with a Woodvil I bought... I have tried it multiple times and have never taken to the taste... but @Andre and @Genosmate both swear by it and use it all the time.

RxW does not impart any "taste" at all to the vape. If anything it would have far less of a possibility of doing so than say cotton or Rayon because it doesn't char like they do. Maybe you like the charred taste better? ;) Or maybe you are not building your coils for it right?
If you can clarify what you mean by that comment it will make more sense to me to maybe be able to offer suggestions, etc.

Funny I get a "taste" from it...it's been so long since I tried it maybe I should try it again and see if I still get a "taste" and then try and describe it...

PS I'm going to move the RxW messages to a new RxW thread...

My first guess is you are not making the coils right. RxW requires a specific exact "fit" in the coils to get the best results with it.
 
Where can I get some locally and who do I have to sleep with?
 
You will not find it locally in SA. READYxWICK can not be shipped out of the USA legally.
 
What exactly is this Ready X Wick and why can it not be shipped out side of the US (legally).

Who is going to be the one to arrange for some to be shipped to South Africa ;)

It's basically a woven tube of ceramic fiber that is high temperature treated in several sizes. It imparts no flavor to the vape, it will not burn in vape gear so lasts for months with many liquids with occasional dry burning (dry burning restores it to lily white, it will usually outlast the wire the coil is wrapped with), and is the fastest wicking material so no dry hits even chain vaping.

It cannot be shipped out of the US on a MFG protection regulation here that is rigorously prosecuted. With up to a million dollar fine for doing so, good luck finding a US citizen that will ship it to SA.

I`ve been lusting after this for a while now. From what I`ve gathered is that one of the uses, apart from vaping, is for shielding wire/looms on missiles and space craft from extremely high temperatures. The US does not want it to fall into the wrong hands. I wouldn’t risk asking someone to send me some from the US as it carries a huge fine if caught. $500 000.00 IIRC.

So... @Spydro ... Have I ever told you what a handsome, funny, intelligent person you are? :happy:

@Stosta you're not the first SA guy who has tried to get me to send RxW to them (one even tried twice). A SA gal would have a better chance :p,but she'd still have to pay the fine and do the jail time.
 
Hmm.... I guess one of those forwarding shipping services will be great right about now?
