I just remembered and managed to track down an excellent guide to the Penelope V1 that blakey did some time ago. You may find this helpful

Refilling it and just unscrewing the juice control leads to flooding as there is no vacuum built up to stop it flooding, so a couple of draws and half a turn then another couple and half a turn. After about 10 vapes you can open it up more without it flooding.

I found I never needed to open the juice control more than about 0.75 of a turn to get the perfect vape for me.

I give it about 3 turns, but I guess its down to what you use as wick and how much you use of it.

Yes seen this tutorial oneday pointed me to that a great guide thanks dave when i do things up i have a tendency to break them fingers like sausages and i just keep tightening so annoying.

I run silica wick 3mm down both sides same as blakey pics with a 1.5ohm coil its vaping like a gooden at the moment so loving this attie, I have read that some people only run half the wick down the side to hold in the wire more juice but dont think i need to go there.

Is there such a thing as better silica from different vendors if so where is best to get it from ?

Everybody and his dog sells silica wick these days Grandad and everybody has their favourite . Personally I like the GG 3mm wick, but a bit pricey to get from Greece if that is all you want. These suppliers are generally pretty good although I haven't tried their normal silica wick:

They both do ekowool as well if you want to try that, but the normal stuff with a round cross section might be a bit easier to use in the Penny
