Ok so I bought a lemo, and I love the thing. I have built many coils for kayfuns, and the like. Problem I have is I want a coil around
1.0 - 1.2 with 24ga. Am I missing something or do I really have to do like 15 wraps with it to get that target? The coil I have in there
now is 1.6 ohms, and it's 9 wraps of 28ga. It's a little too cool for my liking need something with a little more vapor and just a tad
more heat. How would you coil it?

Use a bigger drill to to get lower ohms with less wraps.

Wait, maybe Im wrong about the above.

Try 5-6 wraps of 28ga around a 5/64 drill bit.  That should get you around 1 ohm.

I use 26g around a 3/32 bit. Nine wraps puts me at .96 ohms.

All I have is 24 and 28. I was wanting to use up some of the 24.

According to Vaper's toolbox,  for 1 ohm, you need 5 9/16" of 24 g. That's going to be either a pretty long, or pretty fat, coil. With a 3 mm inner diameter, you  can get it to 9/10 wraps.

Twisted 28, 12 wraps on a 3/32" bit should be right about 1.2-ish

I've done twisted coils before, but only dual in an RDA. Seems to me the coils act differently in an RTA. Maybe i'm just imagining things.
I just put in a 24ga. 7/64 10 wraps. came out to .95, but takes forever to heat up.
