All aboard the mesh hype train

[RichJB]

So, following on from the Taifun tank with its mesh coil, Cthulhu have now put it in a dripper.

Holy shit I didnt even realise this was a thing. That looks awesome! What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of using mesh as coil?

 

[RichJB]

Advantages: flavour for days.
Disadvantages: a bottle of juice lasts you half an hour.

Clever idea, I still have some mesh lying around from an old Genesis tank about 4 years ago

 

[Kalashnikov]

This looks awesome. I like where this mess stuff is going

I can see how it would drink juice. That is some really crazy stuff.

I'd imagine it would have some insane spitback if you consider all those gaps for juice to accumulate in too

The Chinese think Americans like that sort of music. They could be right.

That guy was firing that mesh at like 40w or something crazy - so battery life could benefit here. I think from a design perspective you could perhaps do a great deal of improvements with this new style of mesh atty. This design with the mesh so close to the tank - and a great deal of surface area would cause the atty to heat up pretty quick. So you would need to use less mesh, so that its further away from the topcap. Also you would use less cotton that way - this oke used a half a sleeve in one shot - yoh!

But I think this is cool - im in for the hype - what the f is that mesh made of?

Most likely SS, available in either 304(standard) or 316 grades from 100 mesh(lines per inch) to 1200 mesh.
Theres a place in Paarden Island that sells it but you have to buy a minimum of 1 linear metre which works out to about R500 for the 200 mesh version.

 

[RichJB]

Jusses, a linear metre would keep you going for a while. Now watch the price of mesh shoot up as they are besieged by hundreds of slobbering vapers all clouding up their reception area.

Take my money...

Just had a look on their website, listed parts ends with an entry:

That's not a bad price. The mesh will last you forever... and a roll of fancy wire is like R250 anyway. So it's a bit more but you'll probably get more out of it.

The Genesis type atties used the mesh as wicking material, requiring quite a bit of preparation. Here it fulfills the function of the coil. Interesting.

I even wicked a RM2 with mesh at one stage. Good flavour, but not worth the trouble.

Squonk ready? You've got to be kidding me. That thing holds about 6ml's juice.... Thats's the same amount in your average squonk bottle. They're gonna have to make the squonking holes on the mod a lot bigger... Like toilet seat bigger cause the only way you gonna squeeze out 6ml's is by sitting on the damn thing

 

[GerritVisagie]

Weird, but interesting. I'm in, let's get some so we can look weird, dripping into an RDA By tipping the bottle over!

Imagine a dry hit with that much cotton?

Excuse my ignorance but how would it compare to the flavor that these fancy hand made coils such as SSFC and/or binary coils give you?

 

[RichJB]

I have no idea. I'm working off what reviewers of the Taifun said about flavour and juice consumption.

 

[Raindance]

Mesh, interesting. Something new to frustrate me. So what type should I get? 200, 300...???

Regards

 

[RichJB]

They provide mesh with the atty. I guess the manufacturers will disclose what sort of mesh it is as it becomes more mainstream. Otherwise, taking a strip of the manufacturer-supplied mesh in to the local mesh dealer should allow them to match it up?

300 comes with the Taifun BT, and was recommended by the designer. This RDA here came fast to get on the hype train.
