24mm with no posts to eat up some of the chamber volume.
that'll be a little bit different, I'd have to say.

I think that with the mesh in place, rather than a traditional coil, you'd take up quite a bit of the chamber volume. Finding kanthal mesh would be a bit of a problem, SS mesh might prove to be a bit too low in resistance.

Been quite busy lately, plus the nice thing is that we have our eldest daughter visiting for summer break.
Have to agree with Pete that the 24mm huge chamber on that will probably mute flavor of any single coil. I would say doubles (in fact something like fused claptons) would be a must on that thing to hope for any sort of flavor. As for the mesh, meh never was one for that stuff. I still have two Zen mods which I keep as collector's items.

Yay! Family time is the best! Glad to see you pop in though.Mornin' Pinchville

I seem to remember someone saying mesh is likely to have micro hotspots that will heat the metal to the unhealthy level where it starts to melt it and release harmful stuff (like dont breath it in)
Thanks sweetie, I take a look almost everyday but with the time difference you guys are fast asleep (specially Aal
)
my theory goes like this (and it's stupid):
back in the day, vape-eons ago when we were young vapers, I was doing quite a bit of rolled mesh wicking (w/ genesis and rda). When glowing the wick n' wire to resolve hotspots and create the layer of oxide char, there was a particular smell that perfumed the SS at that temp. To me, that smell was the indicator of metal brought to the temp that may be harmful to breathe on a regular basis. So, I quickly learned to not huff the glow; to hold my breath and avoid breathing those fumes while prepping the build.
Hotspots in a wet build have a distinctive flavor. One shouldn't vape through a hotspot, methinks. If it tastes bad, break it down and rebuild it, rather than hoping it will go away with time (which is unlikely; but people like to be hopeful).
Truth of the matter is that with gennies we didn't really heat the mesh (other than when we prepped the mesh with the torch). We heated a coil around the mesh and the mesh served as a wick. This new atty however uses mesh as a coil so I dunno how that will react at high temps. It should be ok however since most mesh is SS and it should be the same as normal SS wire we use. Thing is mesh wire is much finer so it's ramp up must be faster and it should heat up considerably more than the thicker gauges
I just waxed my wood.
And did you have a vape afterwards?
I'm always around my dear..just getting more work these days...[emoji53]can't complain to be honest...much better than not getting enough work [emoji849]
