*Another* double barrel build on KFL

Ello! This should be quick!

I have an earlier post on the double barrel coils build on a KFL.

Here's another one!

30ga, 5/64 drill bits, 14 wraps. 1.4 ohms

The main difference is that this time, both coils are mounted in-line with the 2 post screws, as opposed to perpendicular to them.

Pictures!

Wrapping 2x identical coils on 2 different drill bits, mount them babies IN LINE with the positive and negative posts. I wrap the leads a full circle around each of the screws!

Deliberately raised the coils quite a bit higher than I typically would, mainly because I didn't wanna obstruct the air hole too much given that theres 2 fat coils + wicks above it this time

Coils fire up!

Running at 15 watts

Now, time to wick. Now much to say, except this is exactly the length of cotton wick i used

So this: basically the wicks from each coil will go into their corresponding juice decks. this is how it looks with the lower chinney section on:

welp! so here it is!

Some things that I would change:

1) for my provari, I would go down to 11 wraps around 5/64. the dual coils ALWAYS consistently gives me 1.2 ohms. at 4.2 volts, I can max out the 15 watts limit. with the current 14 wraps, it does take quite a bit of time to heat up so that's no good.

2) for the DNA or mechs, I would go 28ga and 9 or 10 wraps. you'll end up in the mid to higher sub-ohm area, and it heats up decently.

lemme know if you haz any questions!
