Notch coils

[Marper]

Anyone trying these out, I might get a few

I bet they are pretty good with a single coil tank like the recurve ect, it's like a coil that's a bit mesh but still a coil,not exactly mesh but similar

I have used notch coils, but not those. The ones I used were quite large, both in length and in ID. The notch portion was SS, but the legs were Nickel and very delicate. After breaking 3 or 4 legs I decided they weren't worth the hassle. They did light up super fast, and were limited to about 30 watts. Good luck if you purchase them

Yeah, the legs look delicate, thanks, I think I'll give it a miss

Notch coils were a very short lived fad. Like @Wayneo I tried them. I had bought a couple different sizes. In my opinion they are a complete waste of time and money.

Gimmicky as all get out, these ones had a 5mm ID and took a full rope of Rayon quite nicely. The soft Nickle legs cut or broke off too easily.

In the 32.5mm Genelocity Giant from back in the day.

Mine even came with a little leg bending tool, and they still broke. Plus, it was finnicky to get the leg attachment point to line up where you wanted (mine also bowed a little like I see in yours)

They were a great concept, just not well thought out... Somewhat like that total PoS Wismec Theorem where they were introduced.

To this day I avoid all stuff that has Jaybo or SMM influence.

Fixed it for you. I was a big fan of the Serpent line till SMM touched it. My Serpent 25 still lives. That Theroem glass should have come in 12 packs. SMM has singlehandedly been the cause of me not buying ANY reviewer collaboration product

Tried notch coils over a year ago. They were ok but the legs break real easy and no better than mesh or Clapton as far as I could tell

Still have a pile of notch coils. I used them rebuilding my stock Cleito coils. They worked very well because of the high height of the cleitos. They also fit in stock Atlantis, Hercules, Melo ECT coils. I only used them as vertical coils. Air through the middle and wick around the outside. Have moved to single coil rebuildables tanks and have not found a use for the rest of them I have. Yes have to be careful with the legs. Will use them up some day as I used to love them as it saved a bunch of time not having to wrap coils to rebuild. But they are not cheap anymore to buy like they were a couple years ago. CHEERS!
