Going to start building coils. What I don't get is if I were to put a low res arty on one of my vv mods at 15watts or on my 6v mech mod it would taste like burnt ...!how the he'll can a .8 or .5 ohm coil not burn juice when running so many watts to it? ?? Thanks

Build a 2 ohm coil.

Some things like mesh wicks are bigtime heat sinks and they take more power. At some point, you have to sacrifice flavor though.

No you don't.
.5 twisted vertical coil on a Fatty v3 dripper clone.
Air flow port through center of the coil
Cotton wick wrapped around coil.
No tank can come close to this flavor.
Only compromise is the Fatty is a pain to set up properly.

No, you don't really have to sacrifice flavor.

I got some steel mesh but I plan on using cotton for most builds. Looks easier and better wicking results. But I will learn as I go. Like all suggestions though. All info is good info

Cotton is easier; no question about it. The learning curve is steeper with mesh; but once you've got it, you've got it. A lot of people get frustrated and give up on mesh. But if you stick with it, there's ot much better than a well built mesh genisis except maybe a dripper.
The advantage to cotton is that it's easier to use. The down side is that you have to change wicks often, and that you can't dry burn your coil to clean it with the cotton in it.
Mesh wicks will last for months. The coil can be cleaned by dry burning with the mesh wick n place.
A lot of people are under the impression that cotton is a better wicker than mesh. It's not. Mesh actually wicks faster than cotton. Cotton holds more juice, It swells when it's saturated, but from dry to wet, it's actually slower than mesh.
Personally, I use cotton in my horizontal coil devices, like Kayfuns, Taifuns, Squapes, and drippers. I use mesh only in genisis devices.

Wow? I wouldn't think that of steel mesh compared to cotton? But I will try it. For those that read this. I did my first build ever today! First Terry! I shut you not. ..... got a duel .7 ohm build on my kraken working pretty darn well. Not prefect. But good! Haven't messed with the trident yet.didnt have time. But happy so far. I used cotton on this build btw. Thanks for all the info guys!

You can actually test it yourself. roll up a mesh wick, and then a cotton wick. Hold each one in a little cup of juice, and see which one becomes wet at the top faster. The capilary action of the mesh is better than the cotton. The juice just climbs up the voids in the mesh.
