I took off the base & head of the atomiser from the body, and there was a small metal looking wick about 2-3mm long and made of about 3 strands of wire.
I can't tell if it's come from the hole in the base, or the bottom of the head and am freaking out :p what should I do with it?
Edit: It still works fine, I had just given it a blow out to clear any juice, I'm guessing it may have come out one of the ends?

The wire usually wraps around the end of the wick and holds the strands together, rather like the tip of a shoelace.

Okay cheers, I found it laying horizontally across the atomiser base, so it's still safe to use it?

Just be careful that it doesnt start leaking, if it is anything to do with the actual wick,
and the wick has slipped down into the atty head or something, your juice may flood into
the atty. But if you don't notice that happening and it still vapes ok, I don't see why you
shouldn't carry on using it.

More useless info for you. An aglet is the correct term for the plastic end on the end of shoelaces, a flugelbinder is a word made up for the same item in the film cocktail  Os |
