Sigelei Moonshot wicking by pictures

[TartanSpartan]

Does anyone use a different drip tip for the Moonshot? Pretty new to RBAs and I'm finding the tip a bit hot at times.

I always stick another drip tip on top

Yeah I tried that but felt I lost some flavour. No burnt lips though!

@TheTartanSpartan Thanks for a great tutorial. I just got mine and it leeks like a pig. So you suggested it was probably due to lack of cotton. I will have another go.

Just one thing. Are your coils actually sat on top of each air hole or just above? I will take a piccy on my phone and try and post it here. Thanks

@TheTartanSpartan Well i re-did the build and took pictures. I still have a leak but only seem to get it when i open the air vent. Other thing i noticed is that it got really hot and i was only using 35W. Anyway i will try and post pictures.

@bigyun2000 still think you are a tiny bit shy on cotton in there, you shouldn't get any leaking, once the wick is in place just make sure the pockets are nicely packed but not too hard packed
Those coils are always going to produce a fair bit of heat in a small attie like the moonshot with such a small chamber
