so i bought some readyxwick and i have to say its awesome! you have to drip more because it doesnt hold as much juice as cotton( oh boo i lost 0.5ml of capacity in my rda oh well thats why i carry a dripper bottle anyways) but it does suck up juice quickly making it ideal for those hot coils with high cloud outputs. this wick also wont start to burn untill 2200 degrees F meaning you shouldnt ever taste burnt wick again if you do then your vaporizer is getting hot enough to melt some metals such as copper. it also lasts a long time and doesnt break down like cotton. i havent had to change the wick yet and i think i might have to change the coil way before the wick from what it currently looks like( pics later im not on my tablet) you DO have to run about 10ml of juice (you have to vape 10ml no prob for me i go through 10ml in a work shift) of your flavor to get it good and set in there other wise at 1st uses it tastes a hint of ceramic. so im not sure how this wick will work for those who have more than one favorite juice and only have 1 atomizer. it comes in 3 differnt diameters( i bought 2.7mm 7/64'') it works great. now instead of a harsh burnt cotton taste and harsh smoke when i forget to drip. i get a smooth but stale tasting vape letting me know ''oh i should drip!'' instead of ''caugh caugh uhhhggg hack hack damnit yack yack uhhgg i gotta quit forgetin to drip!''.so if you are a 1 flavor kinda guy and youre putting some real power into your coils then i would highly recommend this

ReadyxWick is all I use. It seemingly lasts forever, has no taste and is easy to work with...

indeed! i am soooo glad i found this stuff. i tried solid ceramic wicks but they could draw juice fast enough then i started looking into that xc116 or whatever its called but then i started reading about them leaching since its just standard untreated(probably originally meant for lanterns) wick. so i was like why isnt anyone prepairing these for vaping yet??? then i found readyX . easy to work with was what i was going for. cotton was getting aggravating, find good cotton and getting the wick thickness right. no worries now!

Most vapers are cheap and don't want to spend the money for ReadyxWick...

how well does that work out?didnt really think of that. im not sure what this stuffs even going to look like the day it wares out if ever lol im still on the first set so i havent had to do nothing with them yet. like i said i think im going to have to change my coil before i even think about a wicking^^ like for real. you mention washing, i wonder if i should go ahead and do that when i do the coil(if the coil does go first) or just leave it as is for a while longer inside a new coil. before if i at to rebuild coils i would go ahead and make a new wick( cuz the cotton uses up so quick) but since this is more resilient stuff im wondering if you could go through several COILS before having to rewick. haha total opposite of even the best cotton xD

yes i did reuse cotton wicks sometimes if they were fresh enough dont judge haha

Works fine, no problem. When the wick gets discolored from caramelization, I wash it, dry burn and it is good as new...

I've looked at this for a long time, never bit...do you guys wrap coils and then thread wick through, or wrap the wire around the wick old-school style? IE: could I use a 3 mm coil-wrapping tool to make and install my coil and then thread the readyxwick through it?

I wrap the coil around the wick for Zen attys and Kayfuns...

I tried it out a while back, it seemed to work well enough but I just didn't like the dust that it makes when it's cut. That stuff definitely looks like something you would not want to inhale. I know it's wet... and all that but it just turns me off.

Are you sure that was ReadyxWick? Mine is clean when cut...

whn wrapping a coil for your readyx use a 7/64 bit or 2.7 mm for the 3mm wick, spaced coil for hi vg
