For simplicity your selection is better. For adaptability the 4 wick ones are better as you can always remove a wick or two.

I think I'll go with simplicity first time round - don't want to be put off by having to fiddle around with maybe having to remove a wick or 2 and find myself with problems. Simplicity first, get the hang of it, then move on to more complex possibilities

Are you going with the ones called welded wires, or the first link we were given? toots.
I've had so many in my basket I have just had to remove them all to start again lol.

Update OneDay , toots

My fasttech order got held up, because the NR thingymabob wires went from been in stock when I paid to not arriving for 12 days.
I contacted ft and got them to remove the NRs from the order, so now I have the ones originally linked to in with my order and they set off yesterday.

So today I decided I ought to at least strip one down, so I did.

Not only that though - I had a small length of wick so I decided I would try the re-wicking without removing the coil.

As it is a delicate job, I needed small tools so I used the only ones I have -




I managed to get the old wick out and put new into 3 of them, they will probably not work, but if I can do that surely I can do the whole caboodle ??

woohoo

[sammy13]

Are the three I made safe to try, or should I wait for my order to come so that I can test the ohms??

If you haven't changed the coils they will be the same resistance as they were before. Go ahead!
