Figure we would try and get this thread an all in one build tutorials and ohm coil list. Please anyone if you have a build you like, or know how many wraps on a certain wire will make ohm-wise please add to the list. Let's try and get this thread hot for new beginners
I'll start off with what I have used personally as far as coils goes. Also, make sure your battery is safe for the coil your building. Thanks to jcatcg for the link safe battery chart for coil building wire 28g kanthal wrapped on 1/16 drill bit wraps 9 ohms 1.4ohms wire 28g kanthal wrapped on 1/16 drill bit wraps 12 ohms 2ohms |

What a great idea. It would be cool to have pics and lists of different coils. I've seen a couple on you tube but only have built one type. Not sure if theres a name for it, it was the one Keith built in his Kayfun build. I have different tanks too, Aqua, Taifun, and drippers. Seems like its a lot to try or take in on whats best.

Great.. I will tear down some and rebuild with pictures and upload them and add to the op. Might either do the omega or atomic. I got stone 24g wire coming soon so I can do those numbers as well
Also people please add to it and I'll try to get it on the op, any wire type and if you got a tutorial by all means share the wealth |

I've heard of, dual coils, micro coils, nano coils, dragon coils, stovetop coils, chimney coils. That's a lot and I'm sure theres more, intimidating but interesting to try.
|
|
I've done most of them except the stove top..waiting on 24g wire
|
|
Im very much in, but my ohm meter just went down Just got done building dual micro coils 26g, 1/16th drill bit, 7 wraps, its reading at holy fuck.
|
|
As long as it don't read take cover I think you're ok
If my memory serves me correct 1/16" bit with 7/8 wraps is.5ohm with 26g wire so your probably sitting at a comfortable .2 to .3 |

This was my first attempt at using cool guy 26g, the flavor wasn't good at that temp so I ripped it out and am going to build again this weekend. |

Alright I got the Magma rebuilt with 26g, 10 wraps on 1/16 bit, dual coils reading .5 on my MVP2(again my ohm meter is broken) I will get some pics when I get a chance, but wow what flavor! My first couple builds on the Magma were between .4-.5 ohms with 28g and I thought it couldn't get much better but the 26g really made this thing shine. It takes a little bit longer to fire the coils but its totally worth it.

Try bumping up the volts to fire it faster...my dual coil that I posted above heats up instantly. When my 24g comes in I'll write up a parallel coil build

Lol yea I guess your stuck on volts unless you ran a kick chip but then what's the point in a mechanical

OK I have no clue how to keep this safe so I need help! I want to do a duel coil on a helios clone on my magneto but keep it in 18350! I can and will use a larger battery as needed but need the wraps. I have a bunch of 30ga and a little 28ga left! Before this I only made coils for my Z atty and rsst. I want it to be hard hitting, am I asking to much out of a 18350?

As of right now my dual coil I posted is running on a 18350 3.7 imr and hits hard. I'll post a parallel in the morning which is a single coil but can bury my dual coil
8 wraps of 28g will fetch 1ohm on a 1/16 drill bit and if you did two it would fetch .5ohm If my 24g wire comes in tomorrow I might do a stove top |

To be safe I don't think I'd go any lower than .9 with those. |

But I am guilty of pushing my purple efest 350's with a .5ohm rda. |

View Quote Thanks for that link. I might add it to the original post |
|
My 24g kanthal should be in Monday, gonna try and do a macro, micro, nano, stove top, dual parallel build sometime this week. Also Wii have a brass monkey rda to show you guys and future vapor folks how to do these rda. Any suggests for other rda tanks? Got a few in mind I might place a order with
Also I might recoil and quick a natalus tank as well |

I'm interested in seeing the difference in macro, micro, and nano. And rate them, would help me decide on coils. Thanks for the pics and tips. |

I found the chimney coil a decent build but about the same in terms of vapor flavor and throat hit compared to a micro and nano coil. The chimney is a bigger bitch to build tho

Dude, I didn't mean to mouse you. I am curious how the aqua would be best built as I own one. It has 4 juice channels. ETA: Also would chimney builds give better results than regular coils, or is a lot of that depends on tanks. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Would a clone build be fine for you and if so what's a decent clone
|
|
Kind of weird how moused morphed into "Enticing to buy" huh....
|
|
I only have clones, I don't make enough for the real deal.
ETA: If you were asking me, this is the Aqua tank I have. |
|
Cool deal I'll get one ordered. I'm feeling bored and wanting to coil my atomic. Any suggests for what type of coil
|
|
Don't know if it matters or not, but the Fogger V4 i have is a dual coil 4 channel tank as well.
It did not perform with chimney coils. |

24g wrapped around a 20g needle
And I might try that diamond coil |
|
|
As soon as my dna30 clone comes in or if I actually win the seven 22 bid I'll be so happy to be able to run 20 watts and more
|
|
about to start building that diamond coil Might just post some pictures of it during the build and after, and do a write up later.
|
|
god damnit
got the coil built, started heating it to mold it and broke a wire....fuck that shit ill try again later |
|
I've been wondering if that dragon vapes good. Thanks for the build dude.
|
|
Honestly, wait for my parallel build ill post...youll love it a lot better...its single coil but crush's ever dual coil i've done...i've used 28g kanthal for it but going to be doing it for 24g kanthal. also going in a trident v2 and possibly the brass monkey when it comes in
|
|
This tutorial isn't mine and belongs to fla556guy thanks for letting me link it as it's a tutorial
kanger pro tank, pro tank 2, aero tank and evod tank build |
|
|
|
Thanks! Tis a Helios, it sits on a panzer... Both clones.
Heats up quick don't think I'm going any lower.. Still new and all. |
