What size wick to keep in stock for the shop

[chinoy]

Thinking of stocking two types of Silica
One regular silica and one braided silica

What size should I get ?

I was thinking 2mm for the regular silica and 2mm for the braided silica or maybe 1.5 for the braided.
Or should I get 2.5

I normally use 2.5 for all my RBA tanks.

I have kangertech Aerotank. In near future I have to rebuild the heating coils. So please stock the perfect guage kanthal wire and silica wick. So that i can buy and rebuild the coils. By the way i have a TOBH V2 atty but i am struggling for the perfect coil build but haven't succeeded yet.

The perfect coil depends on the bat your using.
The best bet is to use baba tip 101 how to pick the right coil length for any gauge.
But ensuring the wire glows as soon as you fire the s/w.

Problem with most RBA /Atty. The gauge of wire they come with is not meant for the kind of bat we use.
Its way to thick.

I am using Sony VTC3 right now. Some MX3 VV batteries are on the way with some spare aerotanks and more VTC3. I am thinking to buy some genesis style tanks if i can rebuild them more easily than drippers.

I somehow am not a big fan off the Braided Silica.
I also dont like Ekowool. It adds a stange taste.

THe best size to use I have found is regular silica 2mm which we have 100 Mtrs in stock.
Im going to order some 2mm Braided Silica just in case. You never know what the customer will ask for.

I think 2mm is the optimum size. When winding coils. Im not sure why but I believe non braided carries juice better.
Braided may hold more juice but when it comes to flowing juice straight works better.

The Dripper boys may enjoy 3mm silica better but not sure if I want to invest in stocking that.
