Like so many other things with vaping there is no specific time frame that all ss wicks need to be changed. Some may only last a month and others will last a year or more. I currently have two that have been in use since August with no signs of needing to be changed anytime soon (they wick well and the flavor remains really good), although I know that can change at any moment ;)

I'm also thinking to pick up genesis. Good to know that mesh lasts really long.
If you want to change flavor you need to reburn as in oxidise it again? This seems the worst for me... I usually like to change flavor 2-3 times a day :(
Does it somehow damage mesh if I keep them for different flavors outside any liquid, like some kind drying out effect? Seen some pre-oxidised are shipped in bottle filled with vg.

You can use a bic lighter to burn the juice off the wick when changing flavors. No need to torch it again unless it needs oxidizing.

To answer your 2nd question....It shouldn't damage the wick if you let it dry out for awhile. I've done this but usually re-oxidize it for sanitary reasons.

Like dry burn with silica? For a while can be as much as 24-48 hours, not too much? And what do you mean by "needs oxidising"?
washing it for 3rd time to change flavor needs oxidising? Or using it for 10 full tanks?

Thanks everyone does anyone know what a good gene or hybrid is to have im happy with my aga-t but i know this is a chinese copy and wouldnt mind trying an original to see what a proper gene is like

How is it compared to carto/clearos? :)
Do you got vivi to compare maybe? Seems like hardest question here, what somebody like me who started month ago should expect from genesis. And maybe reason to get one in first place :)
Was also looking for Aga-t+, cheap and I can even get it locally :)

I'm afraid I don't understand your questions. Sorry. As far as re-oxidizing....you only need to do this if you are getting hotspots but I will also do this with mesh that has been sitting out dry for awhile to purify/sanitize it.

I do have a vivi and i swear by them brilliant but now im getting used to the aga-t gene style i really prefer the aga you get good flavor brill amount of vape and there stronger built ie i broke the vivi on one drop where as i have dropped the aga twice so far and havnt even got a scratch hope that helps

Amount of vape is huge from my vivi with juice I got now :)
Flavor is what I'm concerned about, if it gives better flavor I'm game :)
