I know electricity will take the shortest/easiest path to ground, and that path for a wire wrapped around a bigger wire/cable should be shorting through the bigger wire.
Right?
Edit: Turns out I was right about electricity, but wrong about how the genesis style atomizers were wicked. I didn’t know the cable was just to draw the liquid from the tank to the cotton. I thought the cable was a cotton replacement.
It would be very hard to make the resistance of the larger cable higher than the smaller one because resistance is a function of the cross-section of the wire. Obviously also a function of the metals, maybe something like silver and Kanthal but it feels like a long shot.
I don’t know what tech the OP is talking about but you don’t need a wick if you can get e-juice flowing over the coil anyway. You can use a dripper like this so I’m guessing someone has developed a tank to feed the juice into the setup?
My assumptions on how a genesis style tank was wicked was wrong. I thought the cable replaced the cotton instead of just drawing the liquid up to the top so the cotton didn’t have to go in the tank.
