Freemax Mesh Pro Review
The Mesh Pro is a 28 mm wide resin tank with a push-to-open top fill that can fit 5 mL of e-liquid – it goes up to 6 mL with the use of the bubble tank. It is compatible with all the coil heads of the Fireluke and Fireluke Pro tanks (including the RTA deck,) but not the heads from the original Mesh tank. There are four new coils introduced with this tank, including what's said to be the very first multi-mesh coil heads for sub ohm tanks. A single mesh 0.15-ohm and a 0.2-ohm double mesh are included in the kit. Also available is a triple mesh 0.15-ohm, plus an SS316L single mesh 0.12-ohm coil head for wattage or TC vaping.
Resin swirl colors: black, blue, green, orange, pink, purple
Tank kit price: $30.99
Build Quality and design
Having said that, the Mesh Pro functions well with no real hiccups. It came to me very clean! It's got nice O-rings and it’s smooth and easy to disassemble. The coil swap is a standard screw-to-base design, but it’s effective. And it’s got fully adjustable bottom-fed airflow with two large slots measuring 11 mm by 3.5 mm.
Filling the Mesh Pro is easy and convenient. The filling mechanism is a push-to-fill that’s marked by a red dot along the metal base of the top cap. I'm happy to not see the word "push" engraved on the tank! While the red dot is the sweet spot, the push-to-fill top cap opens from a wide radius, which adds to its convenience. The actual fill slot is relatively wide enough that you can pour juice directly from an open bottle — though I’d still recommend using a squeeze bottle or dropper.
Coils
- Single mesh 0.15-ohm Kanthal (included): Rated for 40 to 70 watts.
- Double mesh 0.2-ohm Kanthal (included): Rated for 60 to 90 watts.
- Single mesh 0.12-ohm (SS316L): Rated for 400 F- 550 F
- Triple mesh 0.15-ohm Kanthal: Rated for 80 to 110 watts
All the coils are of high-quality. There's very little flavor carryover after refills. I can switch between blueberry lemonade to a custard and within less than six vapes, all I taste is custard. The heads also wick quickly, and they don't spit or leak. The Mesh Pro coils do drain liquid quickly, but these are high-performance coils — they're supposed to! The extra capacity from the bubble tanks helps out a lot in not having to refill as often.
Performance
The performance of a sub ohm tank (or any atomizer) really comes down to coils. All the Mesh Pro coils can give clean flavor and great vapor at their recommended wattages. But...
The triple mesh coil steals the show! Based on my testing, the other coils – even the double mesh coil – failed to have the "wow" factor. No matter the airflow setting or power, the flavor just never came alive. I get clean flavor, but not a lot of it from those coils. Even above their recommended ranges, they're all lackluster when it comes to flavor density... except that triple mesh!
The Freemax triple mesh coil head is one of the best coils I've ever used in a sub ohm tank. The flavor I'm getting is remarkably clean and dense — and I'm rocking it with the airflow fully open at 88 watts. My e-liquid tastes like it's in high definition! It's been my go-to cloud maker for a few weeks now. Even at a wattage lower than the recommended range, the triple mesh coils heads beat all the other available coils. I've gone through about two refills a day for over a week and the coil is still performing well. The first triple mesh coil I used lasted just under two weeks before the flavor withered away.
Airflow
The airflow is smooth and about average for noise level when taking slower drags, but it gets loud with big and fast hits. Especially with the single mesh heads, it gets obnoxiously loud when you close off the airflow some. It's not a whistler per se, more like the sound of releasing air from a car tire. This is a con for me, although I'm mostly unaffected by it since I prefer taking slower hits.

Previously having been the chief-editor, I am now a contributor here at Vaping360 and I reside in southeast Michigan. I've been vaping since my first ecig purchase in 2010. For more reasons than I can list, vaping has been a lifesaver for me. Now, my goal is to help other smokers make the switch.
