Use silica in the miro coil for now
make it just under half thickess of the coil
use ether a nedal threader or some coil wire bent dubble
put thro coil put silica throw nedal threader/wire for makeng coils ben dubble and pull the wick throw

stay on the silica for a week or 2 and see if you settle down

Thought that originally but after 4 months of it getting worse, and it getting better when I stopped using cotton, then came back when went back to cotton that kinda ruled it out

this is how i get silica in to micro coils
i split it to roughly half of the size of the micro coil


then i get come coil wire and bed it in half




feed the bent wire throw the micro coil and feed the silica throw the bend in the wire



and then pull throw






then just trim to size

hope that kinda made sence

I was simillar with cotton, i felt a harshness in the back of my throat that i never got with anything else... personally i dont agree with the use of cotton,plus a couple of videos on youtube showing what comes off it and how it turns to ash when its burnt cemented my decision to go back to silica... i also think it tastes better tbh... not flavour wise...but cleaner wise, it would be interesting to know where the idea of using cotton came from, if it was from some youtube wiz kid it would be even more reason to stay off it..... each to their own tho i guess, but even if there is some sort of wonderful and world shattering flavour difference between cotton a silica i cant taste it ...so im sticking with whats pretty much tried and tested...

This is one of the videos in question.... fast forward to 3.30 if you want... but it does give food for thought, Im not saying its wrong to use it, i mean some people's bodies agree with PG some dont and its the same with VG... it may be down to the person in question... so who knows.

If your getting a harshness in the back of your throat off cotton wool it's likely that you've burnt it. As you so CW burns very very easily so you have to ensure it's all completely saturated before vaping 

CW may be a newer wicking material than silica but I'd also say CW is tried and tested.

some people get an itchy throat off silica too so it's trial and error what works best for each of us.

Been building coils for over 2 years now, i like to think i know how to do it... like i said, each to their own, i just know my own reasons for staying off it...

Common symptoms - these include a runny and itchy nose, a blocked nose, sneezing, itchy and watery red eyes and an itchy throat....

Ok so not long ago I popped a post on asking if anyone has had any adverse reaction to using cotton wool.

I have no clue where that thread is lol, but basically not long after I started using  cotton wool I developed a tickly cough.

It started off waking me a couple of times and got to the stage I could not sleep at all for it.

After my post I went back to using normal kanger coils, and the problem didn't go away but got much better.

A few days ago I was given some microcoils, threaded them with cotton wool and have not slept for 3 nights due to a tickly cough.

So my question is - what can I buy to thread through my microcoils other than cotton?

You are not Dimitris the VapingGreek of VapeTeam fame can't use cotton at all, here is a link to one of his latests videos a bit about Rayon (call to davetherayon) and he mentions the cotton prob at 21 mins

your cough will probably be because you are quite a new vaper a lot of people say they develop a cough after a few weeks but it goes as quick as it came

I had a smokers cough but it went away when started vaping only came back a couple of weeks ago it's not as bad as it was when smoking only cough a little bit,
does worry me though have to say, one of the reasons i stopped smoking, that and my hubby had a bad smokers cough which has gone away thank heavens

[Ripshod]

I'm having similar problems. However, I believe it's linked with my hay fever that's reoccurred since I stopped smoking.

I bought a rebuildable recently, and coils I wick with cotton wool or the Rico sample I was given do tickle for a while after use. CW is the worst of the two. But with the silica I'm fine and dandy.

Ah well, time to try Rayon. Don't need any other excuse now
