Do these use wire mesh or cotton? Looking to try a re-buildable. not for dripping though, looking to see what would be the best to start out with. Thanks in advance!

They use mesh, cotton, or kanthal. Genesis style builds are more vertical in nature. See below:

Both are good; Silica/ekowool, SS cable and ceramic wicks work too.
Learning how to do mesh builds can be hard, and a lot of people seem to give up before they get the hang of it. If you master the learning curve, mesh can be awesome, very clean and flavorful.

I'm assuming you meant silica?
Gennies can use any wick type, however most prefer mesh. I tried for many moons to get cotton to work in anything other than an auto-dripper setup, and it did not go well at all.
If your having problems with cotton in a genny lmk, I'll get you going on the right path.

Yea, mesh is generally set it and forget it. Real trick is to get the roll diameter just right to be a snug fit through the coil and then to use a VV battery on lowest setting to test fire for hot spot, wiggle the coils until they set where they're happy, and you're good to go.
No need to change or clean it, almost ever, since once one juice is cycled through, the mesh retains no leftover flavor and the next juice will have its proper and full taste.

'Snug fit through the coil' makes me wonder whether you are using the drill bit method.
It's a good starting point for someone leaning how to do a genny build, and maybe struggling a bit (The DrillBit Method - YouTube.
For something like the RSST, with all that real estate on the deck, it's pretty easy wrapping the coil with the wick already in place.

I purchased some mesh a couple weeks ago and decided to give it a try. After watching a couple of YouTube videos: Todd's (mentioned above) and Phil Bursardo's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnuYJeoS6Fc
The results are amazing. Good clean flavor and lots of vapor. I am very pleased with the results. Thanks again guys!!!

Thank you, Tbev. I can't wait to see how it goes after a flavor change.
