intersting series. From watching alot of vape reviewers wicking etc on youtube i'd expected different results. Very insightful

Thank you for your time on your very interesting trilogy Morten. I will be trying your it when I have a day of tomorrow.

Thanks for the video's Morten, you have made my mind boggle and lots of things to try and test out myself.👍

In rta is the important to with hard in the coil but fluf you wick. Because rta's are different to wick. It's all about the device you use. Great videos! Love it!

I just finished part 2 of your wicking series, went to lurk what your other vids are and found third part fresh hot from the internet tubes. What a treat!

Morten, big thank you.

thanks for your time in doing these experiments. they were eye-opening. you're going to be changing the vaping game. that sixth wick should now be called the oen style. yes, you heard it here first. haha. now i'm going to pull out my wicks and redo them oen style!

Thanks for the technical videos.

Damn I love your videos, please do more hands-on research I learn so much!

Thank you thank you thank you! This is what I needed to know! I'm going to try this and pray this helps my flavor and wicking. I mostly use rdta so this should be good. Proper testing my friend. Again thanks.

Thanks for the very informative videos sir!

this explains why i had a decent wick even before this -- i had only rolled it in my palms gently.

nice exp...thanks. this is why i have never been a fliffer and i have vaped for 4.5 years

You literally did and EXCELLENT job in this experiment. You presented actual data, not just theories. YOU DEFINITELY GOT MY THUMBS UP AND SUB. Thank you for your effort! Again, GOOD JOB!!!!! (By the way, you remind me of Yuri from Red Alert). :)

Super cool vidéo and experiment thanks cause we all see people fluff the coton and it turns that it doesn’t work so thanks 🙏

I'm here so you don't have to be...man you are a genius!!

might be a coincidence, but it looks to me like the tightness has an effect on the end portion of the video. It looks like the wicks with the most juice at the top are also the loosest in the holes, which could be choking the wick. If you watch you can see the ones with juice at the top sliding in the hole while the dry ones are more snug. The sliding could also be from the juice lubricating the hole.

This is actualy a great video :) Thank you i just learned something more :)

I'm so glad it was # 6. I cut strip out of pad(or rip off piece of bacon) about size of coil hole, take off outer layers, mist my hands with spray bottle and dry so they are just tacky, then in one nice motion role wick, or 2 or 3 times, then spin ends into points, put through coil then pull. Any tighter I would have to hold coil. I now am trying to see if I can get away with cutting ends and dropping in because my habit has been to slightly comb with mustache comb, snip, then agitate cut mark back open. That's always worked great but If I can skip those end steps that would be good.I use 26/36 fused or 28/38 triple or quad fused. Ss from advanced vape supply. Slightly Spaced 3mm id 6 wraps. Thanks for videos! Will try to update.

Floki? Is that you? :D :D :D

My first impression on this new learning from Oen... I managed to pass a 12mm cut strip of organic pad through a 3mm diameter 24ga, 6 turns round wire coil inside my Gorge. This is basically the same amount of cotton I already used to cut.. BUT, I used to remove the outer layers (both sides) and I used to pinch/roll one side while holding the other side, to fluff the whole strip. And after cutting the sides to the size I wanted, I used to comb each side and then cut the excess fuzzies. I figured out that when removing both outer layers these 12mm were the "right" amount desired to reach that usual not-loose-not-tight point. But WITHOUT removing these layers, these 12mm almost messed up my build. It's really really really tight now and almost no crackling at all. Dialed down from 40W to 30W and with a nice warm vapor. Flavor is really good and steady, without juice spitting in my mouth now I can really judge the real flavor from my juice, only the vapor, and not the liquid. Very satisfied!

Great stuff!

You sir, are a genius! This experiment seems like an oil lamp wick. Lots of wicking material, tightly woven and not fluffed up. Correct me if I’m wrong. Thank you so much for all your hard work to help out the vaping community.

Nice video. You have a very informative and unpretentious presence.

I gotta try this on my highly modified Gatemouth Kayfun. I have always removed the backing.

thanks man great idea

Thank you.

thank you

A Scottish Roll Variant would've been nice. To create one you have to take a pad, pull off parts the upper and lower lair of it to make it thin and gently roll it.

Oen, you're crazy. I like your videos, and you might be a genius, but you're definitely crazy. Keep up the good work, I'll watch you. Focus on getting to the point. Let's keep on vaping.

Wasp nano has a nice small rta I also use the nano RDA and the RDA is better.

im impressed with this trilogy , i was in difficulty with wick , i wicked a thick one up at the start of part one :) it is better

Great trilogy. I know you don't like tanks, but some of us use rtas almost exclusively. I have always had trouble with my rtas dry hitting if i don't thin out the cotton where it covers the juice ports. I like to keep the juice ports thinned, but then have it tighter in the top part of the juice well. I would really like to see an experiment proving that to be the incorrect way of wicking an rta. Awesome, informative videos as always.

Great videos! Please reffer to the scottish roll technic

Tusind tak, Morten. Meget lærerigt. Abonneret!

great series. I'm going to play around with my wicks to see how it works for me. I usually remove one side of the cotton, scottish roll and fluff my ends. your method is much easier. Never used a tank? merely curious... when you first started vaping (I think I heard you say you've been vaping at least a couple of years) you learned to build and wrap a coil, learned ohms law etc. before you took your first hit? Also it seems your first vape experience would likely have been sub-ohm. just seems a little odd. most people start with some sort of tank, learn how to vape (since vaping is a bit different from smoking in terms of how you inhale etc.) and then progressively move on to rda's etc. Unless you have a squonk rda it's simply not practical for most of us to drip all day/night. there is driving, work and all sorts of activities to contend with which make dirpping impractical.

Is combing your wick likely to have the same effect as fluffing?

So the best one is from leaving it naturally. Fluffing does not wick as well as natural shape?

I also hate tanks but for a different reasons. I vape 0 nic only so a tank can last for days. I find the heat over a short period of time 'cooks' the juice in the tank and ruins the flavour. They're ugly for the most part and all are easy to break.

What about peeling the outer "pressed" layers on the outside of the pad off? I know some people swear by it saying that it just leaves the fluffy stuff that is better at wicking and gets rid of the compressed bits that are worse. Also, would you mind showing a clip of you actually rewicking a coil to better demonstrate the snugness?

Another great video from the Norwegian from Norway 👍 How does Scottish rolled cotton perform?

Hello morten, Greetings from India. This super tight wicking doesn't seem to work for flavour on my entheon clone. There is vapour but no flavour. Also I did watch your video on the entheon coil placement and I wanted to know if you have a picture of how your coil looks at the correct position and how you get it there because the edges of the atty doesn't allow me to pull the coil down to that height with a coil tool. I was wondering if you have any updated thoughts on the same.

We don't vape with dry wicks though, we prime first

Wish you would have stated the BRAND of the Japanese Cotton. I have found there to be substantial differences between brands, with "Koh Gen Do" brand being the best. Especially when taking into account things like flavor neutrality, lack of bleaches (safety), and scorch resistance. I have found that "Koh Gen Do" is more likely to survive dry hits than other cheaper brands. It also has a cleaner taste and is the purest and safest JOC on the market. IMHO

hello. is the "wick hard" cotton with the outer layer on both sides?

Cotton bacon v2 doesn't let you twist crap. I fluffed it and added a lot of cotton.. But I use mesh and no coils... Got any techniques for mesh? I need a cotton that holds juice.. I stacked a lot onto the MESH coil into a RDTA. Works great but cotton bacon v2 doesn't full more out of the tank fast enough or enough for more then 2-4 hits every few minutes . Sub 70w

3:40 Yeah a "cigarette" I'm sure that's what you mean haha.

Try Cotton Bacon V2 wick.... it will change your life.

How long does it usually take you to hand-hammer each coil? It's good, really really good, loving the ramp-up time. And it really did take me quite sometime to figure out how to calculate it properly.

I think touching the wick with your fingers ONLY AFFECTS THE FLAVOR.

That Beard is awesome

fly by? is you basejumping XD?

I do appreciate the information. Are you familiar with the Scottish roll wicking method? According to your experiment, that sounds to be best. I also did not understand your conclusion on the coil type video. I saw the videos but I did not know which one was better or recommended The flat wire, or something like a fused Clapton(with 40 gauge). I also thought the argument of, "You did not use heat" in your wicking experiment to be funny. It makes no difference. The heat will just dry up the cotton and the wicking will take effect. The focus is the wicking.

1 that wasn't so much fluffing the cotton as it was just splitting it in half 2 where is the simulation for heat that your coils would produce and create a capillary action 🤔

if we all put gloves on every time we wick i dont think we`d bother vaping

This idea makes sense for rdas but won't wick fast enough for rtas

Fluffing? Rubber Gloves? Jerking because they are quite long??? Buggers? You sure your talkin' bout vape stuff?

Does he realize that "fluffer" is a position in the adult film industry? If so then he realizes that none of us should be fluffers.

Dude you can not call ripping the cotton apart fluffing!! Fluffing involves combing out the cotton and then slightly pushing it back together .how the fuck can you not know how to fluff and comb out cotton when you review rdas

Shave that beard off 😂
