Whoever has used this as wick for atomizers, did you boil the wick? If so, how long?

I have boiled mine.. and I have not. No noticeable difference although when you boil a bunch of it at a time it does release stuff into the water whether it is natural stuff or not. I usually boil for 5 mins. dump water out and boil again for a few minutes.

As for the wick using a lot of oil simply dilute with water when adding to special holding area

That is what I did. I mixed it 50/50 with purified water.Since I am on a drilled water well, I boiled the water. Then let it cool, (but not cold). Put in an equal amount of flakes. Stirred them until the flakes were dissolved.Then put it into a spray bottle... It worked out OK. (No clogged sprayer like I thought might would happen).

The wicks that I use in my oil lamps last very long...maybe replace it every other year depending on how much u burn

First of all, there should be only a tiny bit of wick above the hole in the stopper.Second, I've never used citronella so I can't address how it may burn compared to regular lamp oil.Third, I haven't used mine yet so am not sure of this brand. I've only used "Wine Lights" brand in the past.Fourth, once the wick burns down, blow out flame, let it cool, use tweezers to pull up the wick, trim it off with scissors and start the process again.That's all I can offer. Cheers!

I read up on one of the websites on how to make homemade vanilla extract and they had instructions on cleaning the bottles thoroughly before using. I think I filled them up with water and .....(I'm not sure if there was vinegar called for as well) and microwaved them to boiling for a certain amount of time.

These (and this goes for all atomizers) tend to retain some of the fragrance of the product placed into it. I think it just gets "stuck" in the tube and the spray head. What I do is rinse it out with water then fill with alcohol and spray a couple times, then let that sit overnight. If the scent is still there I do the same with bleach. RINSE WELL before using it again. That usually gets all the previous fragrance out.

They are perfect for mech mods. I'm using them in my sentinel mod at the moment. They last about 2-3 days depending on how much you vape.

I once nuked it for a minute and it was fine, but I wouldn't recommend it... The instructions on the box say something along the lines of "let the boiling water sit for a bit before pouring it into the mug." I recommend boiling your water in a kettle, they come as cheap as $10 for an electric one.

I own a set of these atomizers, and I would say yes- if you wanted to clean them they would be very easy to clean. :)

My wife answered this one for me. She says, "Just pop it in the MW and fire it up!" I would definitely not recommend leaving it in the MW for too long, (30 seconds, or so is enough!) or it WILL burn the bejabbers out of you!

Sterno doesn't use a wick. The fluid burns directly from inside the can. The shape and size of the opening dictates the flame size.

Hi! I'm not sure the diameter of the wick, but I use them with the 20 mm standard wick tabs and it works perfectly! They are not coated in anything, but it is very easy to dips the wicks yourself. Sorry I couldn't be more specific on the diameter, I hope this helps!

Sorry I can't help. I have only tried boiling for 3 min. as the instructions give. I have a Kurig and nothing larger to make more than one cup.

i'm guessing the wick and flint will last 4-6 months and i've had it a little over a month and have only filled it twice w/the fuel.

I filled it with a small funnel I have from another atomizer I own. Amazon sells mini funnels or you can use any kind of dropper (like from nose drops) to fill it. Or even a turkey baster.
