Mesh As Coil not as wick

I’ve always wondered why they don’t make a notch style coil with ss mesh. Than you might even be able to just put you wick at the tips of the mesh. The mesh would wick up juice than with it open in the middle. You’d get max vape bc both side of mesh is open. They could even do multi layers so more juice is wicked by the mesh.

So The first time I made a coil of mesh was with some mesh I found in my miscellaneous vape supplies. But my order of #400 316L ss mesh came in today and i built a new one… Wow!!! Like night and day. I mean… [shoulder shrug] just night and day. Anywho, I have a lot of it and If anyone wants to try but don’t want to buy the mesh I will send you a strip of it. Should be able to get a few coils from it, so there is a margin of error. Just message me and I’ll hook you up with a bit of it.
I noticed I said mesh a but ton of times in this post, but i am way to lazy to change it. :slight_smile: Peace Love and Happiness Vape Fam.

Remember this Post

Well

Mesh coil in a Hadaly RDA .32 ohm on the Hohm Wrecker G2 in xxx mode FSK Temp Curve at 13.5%
and it’s doing TC Perfectly and it Kicks Ass. The mesh coil works as good as a SS fused clapton and flavor for days :+1:

Thank You HOHMTECH :smile:

Very cool. So you have the coil built to sit inside the juice well? When I first saw your photo I thought about the coil you could put on the Pharaoh, but you’d have to use cotton or some other wick with that RDA.

What we need is a mesh coil, postless RDA with a ceramic lined well to prevent shorting.

Nice work and I’m glad TC is working out for you with this.

Yeah this thing kicks ass I like this Hadaly clone. I messed up when I built the coil so it go’s up not down so the coil is only 3/16 from the drip tip But the flavor is some of the best I have gotten off of a RDA. The drip tip is anti-spitback and works well ( I will get more ) But the Hohm Wrecker G2 in XXX mode is just Awesome :+1:

This rayon was bone dry and I had to try hard to get it to scorch. At 15% FSK Curve … So I backed it down to 13.5% and it worked perfect :smile:

Ok, it appears as though I need an education. You know I bought a G2 and had to send it back, right? Just got confirmation it was delivered to Hohm Tech today so not sure when it will be back to me. I would like to speak with you on the phone when it comes back if you’re ok with that. I’ll PM you my digits.

@Rob62 I’ve been watching, in fact, though silently. Read about this before over at epipeforum, I think.

What are your specs in that build? Width, ID and wraps, please :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I’ll give it a try! Don’t really understand your settings on the Hohm Wrecker, to be honest, but I think I’ll find my way around.

Well just like the video at the top I took a ( 4 inch x 1 inch ) or ( 101.6 mm x 25.4 mm ) piece of 316L SS mesh then you fold about 1mm and crease it for a nice clean edge. Then Roll up the mesh as tight as possible towards the edge you folded over and wrap it around a 3 mm rod. In the Hadaly it will be 3 wraps :+1: But you have to take your time and keep pulsing the coil I started at 10w then 20w to get it to start to glow in the center and work with it till it glows all the way across the whole coil. Now the coil is a bit flimsy but once you clamp it down and put the cotton in it , it will hold really well and the ohms are very stable in the Hadaly or any clamp type RDA :smiley:

I think the next mesh coil I make I will wrap the mesh around a 26g … 316L SS core wire about 3 or 4 wraps and leave it in the coil to help it keep it’s shape :+1: then wrap the coil around a 3 mm rod
