Yeah. It was the f5. I still have a couple back up packs. Lately I have been testIng out native wicksā€¦wont buy again. Iā€™ve used cotton bacon v2 and primeā€¦their both ok. Just not as good as the f5.

F5 did have a bit of break in but never had a coil collapse and lasted longer than the coilā€¦in terms of being gunned up.

@Dan_the_Man have you ever found a replacement?

I didnā€™t know you were a fan. The stuff was awesome and I just donā€™t understand why it didnā€™t take off. The owners of the company were very cool too.

To answer your question. Yes, I did find a replacement but now I canā€™t get a hold of the guy. It is called
ā€œSuperior Wicksā€ out of the UK. Not 6 months after finding it, he went out of business. Fortunately, he still had some so I got a hold of him through Facebook. Iā€™m pretty sure I got his last little bit because the bag was noticeably smaller and it was all knarled up. Like someone with long hair that goes for a motorcycle ride without a helmet.

Anyway, I found the F5 because I was looking for some Pima cotton or Supima. I donā€™t know why but I am pretty sure these words are interchangeable.

How about you, have you found a replacement?

Noā€¦the pictures for native wicks looked close but the quality is worse than cotton bacon.

Sadly Iā€™ll keep using the cotton bacon until I get a wild hair to order from another site. I think advanced vape supply has some different cotton but havenā€™t needed to order anything else from them.

I know right? I have 2 things of native wicks that I canā€™t even give away. I think Iā€™ll add it to the next thing I give away.

Why not grab some F5 while you can? Anywho, PM me your address and I will send you a bag when it comes.For real dude :slight_smile:

Prep for the pmta potential at least thatā€™s what I told myself.

On the cotton topic what are your thoughts on the Japanese facial cotton? Saw guys talking about it a while back and got a big bag. Iā€™ve used the wotofo that comes with their rdas and sone cotton Dan sent a while back but havenā€™t tried finding my holy grail of cotton.

Very nice @Gsnap. Often times, those who panic when changes occur, are always the ones, who did NOT prepare. I salute you.

As far as cotton, Iā€™ve tried most of the more expensive ones out there, some were good, others were great, but most were just ehhh. I always ended up right back where I started with KGD.

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail

How would you rate the Steam crave shoelace mesh cotton? I have only used one for a short time.

Iā€™ve been using Pilot Cloud Cotton for a couple of years. Never felt a need to change.

Buy from Heavengifts

Well I picked that up with my most recent SteamCrave review, and for the mesh it did really work out well, perfect size/diameter, wicked great, didnā€™t alter the taste at all.

At $8 to $11 or so each and free post Im happy, the quality isnt bad and the ones ive tried vape fine.

Nice. I bought some clones for the first time. I was trying to order the authentic Hugsvape Theseus, Hell vape Passage and Geekvape Tengu. I ended up having to sub them for something else. They both said ā€œin stockā€ when I ordered. That made me mad and sad, so I jumped on Fasttech website and ordered some clones and no names. Sadly the Tengu clone fell through at Fasttech. Ironic as the Tengu was the only RDA I actually set out to buy :disappointed:

You got some nice ones. Iā€™ve heard great things about the Drop Solo. The Warhead has always caught my eye. 30mm :muscle:

Please report back on these.

Can you believe that the only thing there from my original order is the Vapefly Galaxy. I did order a Asmodus Spruza but it was supposed to be the Red and Blue Mosaic one. When they emailed me and said they are out of the Red one would Green be ok, I assumed they meant the Green and White Mosaic so I changed the color of the Galaxy from Rainbow to SS with the frosted white drip tip. Now I have a Green Stab-wood Spruza which Iā€™m ok with but the Rainbow Galaxy would look better with it.

This was the first time I ordered from CVapor, even ever heard of them. It turns out that they are a drop-shipper. That was the quickest I ever received anything from China. I used the free or cheapest shipping, canā€™t remember off-hand. I was initially upset with them because they kept emailing me saying product X is no longer available would I like to pick something else or just get a refund. However, knowing now that they are a drop-shipper, I can see how they probably didnā€™t have control over the disparity between what the website shows "in stockā€ versus what the vender has by the time they get the order. So CVapor may not be as bad as I first thought. It was a time of high volume sales all over with the PMTA deadline looming. They were very communicative and not just when they initiated the communication. Like I said, that was really the quickest I ever received anything from China.

Second chance goes to CVapor.com

the silver galaxy will still look good on that spruza, IMO anyway.
Nice haul.
Iā€™ve been thinking about getting the dead rabbit SE kit.
That VV Lit looks interesting to with different AF options and a chunky big clamp deck.
Let us know what its like please?

Just got a couple of intakes $12.35 each + free post.
