I've tried 2 so far, the Geek Vape AeroMesh, tank is ok but didn't care for the coils, lost flavor somewhere around 25 ml. The other tank was Vaporesso NRG, great flavor, better flavor than any drop in coil I've ever used with the exception of the Aspire Revvo, the coil in the Revvo is a quasi mesh coil. The longevity of the Vaporesso mesh coils is long enough that I get bored and want to change juice but the coil is still doing great. I've easily pushed 80 to 120 mls through each coil.

I've only had a Freemax mesh so far for a day. On the dual mesh I'm honestly impressed. Really great flavor. Way too much cloud, but the flavor more than compensates even with all that high airflow. I'm usually a more slightly restricted DL on RTAs vapor. No idea on longevity, but after running through about 3 bubble glass size tanks it's holding up just fine even with chain vaping.

I'm also a TC vaper, but these in power are not like any drop in coil experience I've had before. The mesh is instant heat and more impressive instant cool the moment my finger is off the fire button. No need to extend the draw for a second to cool the coil and clear the chamber. Makes chain vaping a non-issue with no hint of drying the wicking out. If these coils hold up for a good 7 to 10 days with daily use of a sweet commercial juice, I'll consider it a major step up in factory coil use.

I have no idea, but my kid seemed to like his mesh tank when I gifted him one, claiming it had great flavor. I forget what tank it was.

Reports for the MTL crowd with the new Zenith mesh coils are kind of "meh." I haven't gotten any coils yet to try them and I sort of have a feeling that may not be where mesh shines its best, honestly. Although it's the first really MTL mesh (I think) so I guess I'll have to see.

I'm always looking for great flavor. I usually vape on RTAs running around .5 ohm at about 25 watts. I'm curious about the mesh coil tanks but it looks like they're made to run at high wattage, 50-90 watts. So I wonder if that might be too much for me.
Same here with the rtas. I like the Mesh Pro dual mesh coil Eskie was speaking of but I can only handle a few hits here and there throughout the day at a drastically reduced nic level. Flavor is like no other stock coil I've used before. Worth a try imo to change up your rotation.

I'll second what @Letitia has to say, unless it's rely your thing it might not be an adv setup. It's a lot of air and cloud, but the flavor really makes it worth it. I'm on day 3 and the flavor is as good as say 1.

BTW they do not need super high wattage. The one I'm using is rated 60-90W and my sweet spot is 55W. Works fine 10-20W higher, but I don't feel the need.

I'm using an Avenger tank with the mesh coil and I have the Falcon (M1 and M2 coils). I am in agreement with everyone so far. The flavor is better than any other stock/drop in coil I have. Alot of dense clouds, which isn;'t my thing, but the flavor makes up for it. I've been vaping in the 55 to 70 watt range. 80 to 90 watts is just way too hot for me, and I don't get the same flavor as at a lower wattage.
 
I recently went from the Big Baby Beast to the Freemax Mesh Pro with triple mesh coils and there is no looking back. I had to lower my nic level due to the amount of vapor it produced and the flavor is unreal. I am on day 10 of my first coil and still no dry hits although the flavor is starting to get muted. I vape mostly sweet flavors so 10 days is quite impressive.

I normally vape 6 mg, and am using it right now, but I did just order several of my faves in 3 mg to make the tank tolerable for longer use. It just delivers way more vapor and if you're an occasional chain vaper like me, 6 mg is just too much nic for me.

Day 4 and still like day 1. I'm backing off on using it until the 3 mg juices arrive, so I won't have a real idea how long these coils can hold up for in adv use until then. Still, this is the first drop in coil tank I've found that doesn't feel like some compromise in performance over my RTAS.

I feel like, if I ran the Avenger tank at 90watts on the mesh coil, I could be the smoke show for a Deep Purple concert. Even the Falcon mesh coils produce alot of vapor. But I'm not complaining. The flavor wins in my opinion. Want to try a mesh RTA, but not many choices out there yet.

I have a fireluke mesh and a mesh pro tank. The flavor is outstanding (intense), with lots of vapor production. I prefer a cooler vape, so I vape them at the lower wattage range. I have a pack of the triple mesh but have yet to try them, the double just keeps going and going. To me they are winners, and coil life is outstanding, I'm a convert.

As an old time vaporer that used Scubabatdan's tank then the Did20 tanks they were great . Still have them along with a lifetime supply of 12x8 sheets of 500 ss mesh. No longer use them as the single 1 mm circular airhole were very restricted and have gotten used to for long since less restriction.
People started to shy away for mesh back then because of difficulty seasoning a mesh wick .

Then afterwards came the stone cylinder shaped type wicks similar to air stones used in a fishtank but do not hear about those at all .

Have not tried the modern style mesh tanks of now a days and have no idea if they are even similar in style or flavor.

It goes to say though those old Genny tanks mentioned produced fantastic flavor and never ever leaked.

The vaporesso coils are for the cascade, right? Or do they make them for the NRG as well? I haven’t seen them, if they do. Im not opposed to getting a Cascade too though.
