Kangertech Subtank Mini Problems

Many thanks but in reading back I worded my initial question incorrectly.
It is more the 'mad way of wicking vertical coils' I was interested in.
Any chance you could describe that as photos may be tricky / not do it justice?

Never tried vertical in STM so not sure how to wick, my head assumes you just pack the chamber with cotton but interested to know your 'mad' way.

Sorry to be a pain.

Hi,I'm gonna have to do a few pics as well as telling you so give me today to do it as you would never get what I was saying just from me telling you so I will take some pics and then I can show you exactly what I do. I will put it up for you either tonight or tomorrow but your definitely going to need some pics to go with what I tell you.

I find wicking a vertical coil nigh on impossible on the subtank!

Have you tried wetting the cotton as you go when wicking vertical

Yeah, I tried for about 3 hours solid, just ended up with clumps of sticky cotton, fingerprints everywhere and almost an rba getting flung over the balcony!

Never tried it again lol!

Had plenty of those days but after a while of perseverance I got to know it well. Still times were pulling out cotton through the hole's after a dry hit is what makes it work right,to point of it being absolutely perfect wicking,

I'm going to put some pics of how I wick vertical subtank RBA. If a bubble doesn't escape virtually every vape (esp. if at high watts like 25 n up) then it may not wick as much as you may need. This is what works for me,8 months of subtank mini RBA has been a journey of hit n miss but the last couple months has got it working how I want it and I want it to wick on demand every time. I'm putting them up soon.

So this is how I wick,it looks like there is more cotton on one side but its not,that's what the outer layer strip of cotton is for,and works perfect. If you want to use juice where its 50vg 50pg or higher pg just don't snip as much cotton off. Obviously make sure cotton covers holes,thinner juices need the cotton compacted harder.
