635 Mesh - Excellent!

[rotohammer]

What else is there to say, it vapes better than anything I've used so far. As a test, I didn't even bother oxidizing it, since my coil is well seasoned.

Results: No problems, no hot-spots, no shorts. This mesh is so fine (Hey Mickey) that you can barely tell its woven.

Yeah, its expensive, but that's what money is for.

Update: After vaping a few tanks of juice, I have to honestly say the vape isn't that much better that 400 mesh. The big advantage so far is that I'm not fiddling with the wick to remedy shorts. Maybe I just got lucky. Time will tell.

I'll start upping the voltage and see how it fares/fails. I wouldn't pull the trigger on it just yet.

Would love to hear your results. I still have 400 mesh I am using, so when I do need to order would be good to see whether I go with the 500 or the 635.

I'm always looking for something that is better and more expensive than what I just got

Thanks for the update,...but how does it wick? Any noticeable difference in capillary action vs 500 or 400 SS mesh?

Is this the twill version?

Hey Roto, where did you get the 635 mesh from?

We need to know more about this caterpillary action.

Good morning! Well it's morning here anyway. Just a heads up, it's capilliary action
BJ43 did a wicking test with kerosene and pure pg and vg, on the #500 mesh. The results were astounding. I am excited to hear about the #635.
I will try to find the link.

Here is capillary action breaking the myth that tight wrapping the coil will reduce wicking on SS wick The wire was tightened with a needle nose until it cut into the wick for more lab tests go here.http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/modding-forum/330407-500-ss-mesh.html

Thats incredible! what is the appro diameter of the wick? What is the approx diameter of the hole in the center?
Thanks

70mm wick 500 ss rolled as tight as possible, no center hole. Center hole reduces capillary action.

Your making our wicks expensive. That really is cool to watch it climb.
