now, my Plus, that's another story = 2 wicks, 2 leaks :gaah::cuss2:
You'll get it. :)
idk why your bother'n, if you didn't like the rda.
I don't hate it and I get why people love it. In my case, it's a pile of potential that just won't seem to really materialize for me. I also have this nagging suspicion that it will be better for me with the mesh strips than the rda. It'll also be popular enough to where I'd like to able to to speak about it from experience.

I watched a you tube review on it tonight and after watching how long it took him and how exact you have to be (or so he says) I think I will wait awhile till others have gotten theirs. I love my profile RDA and could be it was just the way the reviewer was doing it but it looked like a huge PITA to me :)

It's actually pretty easy to wick. My gold should be here in the next few days and I'm gonna do a wicking video. But I'll give you the run down.

Install cotton, cut at 45°like normal. Then with the 45 cut facing you split the cotton in the center making a horizontal line. Stuff the bottom half I. The juice hole and trim the top half to match where the mesh meets the cotton. Then I juice it up real well so the cotton in the juice well swells up and prevents flooding. I thought it was going to be too much cotton but it wasn't. Another member "reviewer" here wicked his 4 times then used my method and it was good. Haven't heard back from him so I assume everything is still good.

Well shit the bed. The unity cotton by wotofo is half the thickness. No wonder the rta went so easy. I bet with the 6 it would be the same. I'm gonna stick one of the 3mm in the profile rda and see how that goes

That 3mm Wotofo cotton pissed me off. Found a deal for the 30 pack for less than fifty cents more than the 10 pack. So I bought three packs. They are not 3mm. More like 3.5mm. I can't get a piece through a 3mm coil without trimming. So much for the ease of use.

Unfortunately it looks like FastTech went from them being in stock today, now it is saying 04/01. Whatever. I've got plenty of other RTA's and RDA's to play with until then. Plus I finally successfully made a few sets of aliens yesterday! God was I happy. After like 50 attempts I was ready to give up. Now I've got a nice fat SS316L alien in the recurve sitting on my Therion BF and a nice 3.5mm alien sitting in the intake on top of my oni dna250. Something to play with for a while until I get blessed by the mesh.

My gold one will be here today. Im going to make a wicking tutorial video on my YouTube channel that I'll link here when I get it complete. 3 wickings now in my black unity went flawless. So I'll try to get it up today for any new unity users

If it is anything like the RDA wicking, I am a specialist, but I'm sure I'll take a look. My first 2 wicks of the RDA sucked, after that I figured out where I was going wrong and 6 months and a bunch of rewicks on 2 separate profile RDA and haven't had an issue since. I think it is just hard for people to justify putting THAT MUCH cotton in anything, but it really is necessary.

We've been accustomed to minimal cotton and I think that's the issue

Anyone know if the mesh is available in kanthal? I ask because i have never vaped a mesh tank before so i have zero experience with them.

I was surprised how fast you got it. If one shows up in stock in the states I'll probably hit it....
I pre-ordered straight from wotofo the day someone here posted the link about it coming out.

Take it easy on me. My first tutorial

Good job. You need some better scissors!
Have you tried the 3.5 ml without the extension piece?
I had an old Atlantis style tank that would go from 2 ml to 4 with an ext. Thought the flavor dropped by just a smidge with the longer chimney.

Yeah that looks pretty logical. Good job. Your voice sounds like you have on a ten gallon hat, a leather vest and some spurs :D

The hair cutting scissors from Dollar Tree are great for cutting cotton. The ones on the right. Though, I've had no problems with the shears that came with Coilmaster kit.

The glass makes it too long to make contact without the extension tube unfortunately.

Definitely will be picking up some scissors tomorrow. Thanks. The ones I have now work better like a squeeze and pull. Like cutting with a knife. Lol.

Smack me Bob. I was thinking it was a 2 and 3.5.. So extension tube is not needed for the shorter glass. Sorry about that confusion. Glad I didn't review the damn thing huh?

Yeah, sharp scissors are a must for me. I see professional reviewers struggling sometimes to cut the wicks on a standard 3mm build and kinda stare at my screen. It's like dude... you have 9000 atomizers and no good scissors?
===========================
i thought about it afterwards and wanted to mention that I meant no offense about your voice. :) For some reason you just sounded like a cowboy to me.

Ha ha. No it's all good man. I do have a deep voice. It did sound deeper on camera to me though as well. And southern. I could hear that myself. Lol

Find myself surprised quite a few times

:snapoutofit:
I give up.....when I get mine I will determine if there is any flavor difference between shorter chimney 3.5ml and longer chimney with extension 5ml like there was in an old Atlantis tank....
