Rebuildables and wicks - cotton or silica?

[whiteshep]

Like you ilard I love my subtank but it isn't as good as my lemos comes close but lemo still gives me a better vape. My subtank is my out and about tank it's had a few drops and bumps and still going strong not sure the glass tank on the lemo would be as resilient.

I haven't tried the Lemo yet whiteshep, but I hear good things. Just don't see the point of buying anything else at the moment as the vape from my Subtanks is so good.

One joy we have is no rush all things in time and always new and improved stuff coming every week so glad I don't have much cash as I'd have spent so much could open a shop lol.

Just hit the FT pay button for a Lemo Drop - luckily wifey upstairs!! I have had a plethora of you good folks saying COTTON WICKS!  But so many types of cotton! Which is the best and is there a good UK seller?

I've got a heap of cotton (about 40ft) I ordered from amazon thinking it was rayon.....But was loathe to send it back...

But Greg has a good idea. you'll just need a pair of sewing scissors to cut it thin then feed into your coil

It's not my idea, lots of us use this Muji cotton

I far prefer the Sub Tanks over the Lemo, i get a far airier vape with the Sub Tanks compared to the Lemo's which are now in exile in the vape cupboard, Each to their own i guess

I agree, Subtank mini blows the Lemo out of the water for me

Subtank mini .7 ohms, cotton wick and 50/50 juice, never had so much vapour brilliant.

Only going for Lemo since it looks like even a blind cack handed idiot like me may have a chance of coiling/wicking it !!!!!

You pays your money and makes your choice. Have to say though the ST RBA deck is simplicity itself to rebuild due to the quite unique terminal posts in that you don't have to wrap the coil legs around the screws. Have a look in the guides section to see how it's built

Bugger - looks like the subtank is on next months FT shopping list

[whiteshep]

Always something new and better coming along but doesn't mean what went before isn't good the lemo is still a fantastic tank and also as a Heavy cackhanded git I can attest to it being easy to build on . Love my subtank too only use the rba section as the heads didn't last me long but with 50\50 red Astaire its chucking out the flavour and vapour all on a 1.8ohm coil likely I'll be getting a mini at some point but not bothered if I don't between the two lemos and the subtank I'm a happy little vaper.

Cotton, definitely cotton. I first tried cotton a few month ago but didn't like it as the taste was awful and burnt, now I realise I should have primed the wick with a few drops of juice first.

I tried using cotton again yesterday and I have to say the flavour it gives off is just amazing, even the old mixes I had stashed in my cupboard for months that I didn't really like I've tried them again with cotton wick and now I love them...just the flavour is amazing. Even Red Astaire tastes better - if that's even possible.

I've been using 100% cotton wool balls from Tesco in mine lol

Cotton, cotton, cotton, my new best friend.
