Is there a guide to setting these up with the wick that comes with them, I want to try the silica wick first befoire I try a mesh wick?

Hi,] I've just wicked and coiled this. Couple of questions. I found that this screw doesn't grip toooo well, the wire I mean. And what's this for. Sorry I'm dumb. Have I set it up wrong. I've got it vaping nice. The only other thing of note, my Wickis about 45 ddegrees off from the airhole. But I don't know if that is user error again. Either way, an absolute steal. Very happy.

I posted this in the delivery thread, might be better in here. There is a discussion going on on UKV about 'solid' mesh wicks v 'straw type' (hole through middle) ukvapers.org/Thread-Genesis-wicks-solid-or-strawIt's a fairly polite discussion and raises some interesting points.

I'm not too eager for silca wicks, but will give it a try. I've got this vaping bloody well now I have to say iI'm impressed. And no leakage or gurgles just yet.

ok I have made a mesh wick and got it into the hole. I've made 4 coils and every one has immediately popped between the top coil and the posi post. I'm thinking this happens when the wire between the wick and post is too long, but I can't get it any shorter. Any suggestions / help?

Im by far not an expert on mesh wicks.
But the 3rd coil down, looks to be too far off the mesh!

It is a bit awkard as the hole is to far over but bend the wick till its nearly touching center post and also try and get your coil a bit tighter one trick is a needle down the center of the wick and make it swell
