To mesh or not to mesh... a vapers question
Hey @Imthiaz Khan, long time no see... or chatBrilliant post/thread @Arthster
I have been so undecided over the last couple of weeks on whether to try mesh or not...your post ha now answered my question!
Going to get it and try it out
I am very happy with it. I am sure your going to be as well.
Yeah it's been a long time...I need to come visit
Thank you bud! Can't wait to try it out!!!

Lol, awesome!
Looking forward to it

Thanks @Puff the Magic Dragon, I will have a look at it. I have the Profile RDA and RTA to get through and then I will move on to the next one to try.
I don't build but what I can say is that the commercial mesh coils are fantastic! I don't want to use any other!
Well that is what spurred me on to going RTA and RDA mesh. I used the SKRR for a while and found the mesh setup fantastic, but I prefer building my own coils. I love the SKRR I think its one of the best tanks on the market but what makes that I give it 9 puffy clouds instead of 10, is the fact that there is no RBA base for the tank.
Howsit all, recently got me some mesh atties, all profile rdas and rta, firstly... Have no idea why i waited so long. Ive been getting oodles of flavour and love the cooler experience every now and then.
I think my wicking isnt that bad but any tips to better it or advice on which reviewers video shoukd i watch for the unity rta would be greatly appreciated. I get mad flavour for about 3 tanks and then either leak city after the third or a a moerse dry hit on my 3rd or 4th tank. I dont understand why but its happening.
Thanks in advance.

This is going into a whole new realm for me.
Bit confused about the whole terminology being used "heads" no idea? and i just take it RSA is your pet name for the RDA? But as for the statement they get wicked completely differently!
I am getting even more confused by this thread, the question is do we want the OP to do a review of the Profile Unity and the doesn't exist RSA as if reviews are not out there. Yet loads of reviews have been done both on Youtube and written (i have reviewed both). The question was answered overwhelmingly yet i see no review???
There are quite a few reviews available on the interwebs with regards to mesh RDA's/RTA's. Many of the reviewers indicated that they are wary of mesh atomizers purely because of the fact that they are prone to dry hits.
About a year ago I decided to throw caution to the wind and got the Profile RDA. My reasoning was that, seeing as the Profile RDA is capable of using both mesh and normal coils, if I didn't like the mesh I could just switch over to normal coils (which I had been using exclusively with all my other atomizers).
I received the Profile and went to work on installing the mesh coil with the supplied cotton and WOW!!! I was totally blown away with the flavour, not to mention the smooth vape I got off of the Profile.
I realise that the flavour and smooth airflow are 100% subjective, but I was seriously impressed.
Now, full disclaimer, I have had a couple of dry hits on the Profile, BUT this was mostly due to the fact that I lost track of when last I squonked!
On the odd occasion I had a dry hit because of the cotton not being in full contact with the coil, but this happened very rarely.
I can understand why reviewers are wary of dry hits with mesh (yet, it hurts), but if you take the time to wick it properly and pay attention to when you should squonk/drip, you honestly have nothing to worry about. And by time, I mean it takes me all of 5 minutes, no longer that it takes anyone else to wick up a normal coil. I personally prefer using the "pancake" wicking method (have a look at this video @ around the 4:22 mark).
I honestly think that mesh has been portrayed in a negative way, purely based on many of the popular reviewers point of view stating that mesh is extremely prone to dry hits. This has not been my experience though.
Mesh, for me at least, is really flavourful and the coils do last quite a long time. I prefer changing my coil out once every two weeks or so, but I have managed use a coil for nearly a month before I felt the need to replace it, obviously not taking rewicking into account.
I have been using my Profile RDA exclusively for nearly a year now and would highly recommend mesh to anyone, providing they are willing to take a little time (it took me about a week or so) to get used to wicking it properly.

o"the youtube recones if you crank up dry cotton with mesh to about 110watt then there is a chance that you can suck a flaming ball of hamster fur into your lungs... im thinking... yeah no shit. I also have to say that I have only had partial dry hits. What do I mean by a partial dry hit? Well I don't have a name for what actually happens."
You can expect this at 40w too. The mesh gets extremely hot at even this wattege and if the cotton is dry enough it will catch alight.

Yep need that cotton to keep saturated!
So far, no mesh atty impressed me at all.
There's quite a few good ones out there,but the better options is mostly sub ohm tanks.
Yes Im also confused. the last few months my rda's are standing still. The flavor I get from replaceable coil "podmods" mesh coils, is just so much better than on my rda's. Yes on a rda I can get a more overwhelming taste but these little replaceable mesh coils just brings out more of the other notes you normally dont even notice. I like building rda's and like a low watts restricted hit, so don't really want to go big clouds mesh rda. Flavor on Vinci 0.3ohm and Gemm 0.5ohm mesh coils, is just amazing, you taste every single flavor that went into that juice
I agree with your remarks. Only my Beest RTA is still in use. Most of my RDA's are gathering dust. Mystique 1.5Ohm disposable tanks are amazing. I never thought that I would be able to admit this. I have two RTAs which only take replaceable mesh coils. I won them in competitions (thanks @Hooked ). They were both amazing but the coils alone are double the price of the Mystique tanks.
I high Nic low W the Gemm25 pod of .ohm5 too. Epic flavour on restricted DL and I also MTL the .5 pod its good both ways

Currently I got high Nic in the .5 DL pod-tank at 15.5 W and I open and close the airflow depending on the need to DL or MTL
Me and @Timwis was commenting on the tea cotton that's Freemax's trademark cotton. I you could get it sold separately to see if it make a difference in the rebuildable RDA/RTA's and I think it would!
MESH IT,WICK IT,VAPE IT.
there I've said it first now to print it on a t-shirt(sweater)
