OK, I wound up one of these DCs last night - it ohm'ed out at exactly 0.9ohms! Vapes like a beast at 3.7v, but I have a problem. Works just fine on my Stealth, but when I put it on top of my GGTS it pops the fuse every single time. What did I do wrong??
Could be the adapter. I bypassed the adpater and stuck the Ody on the GGTS in 'ugly' mode.
BUT, when I put the Ody with 0.9ohm DC on my Stealth it vapes perfectly (albeit eats batteries at an alarming rate). When I put the same Ody DC on my GGTS all I get is hotter vapor and burnt taste. Stealth bat is an AW IMR 18350. GGTS is a AW IMR 18650. Checked both bats fresh off the charger and both come off at almost exactly 4.2v.
Any idea what could be causing this strange behavior? It has to have something to do with the DC setup (I never had this problem with single coils) but for the life of me I can't figure what it could be.

It is possible the GGTS in "ugly mode" has slightly less voltage drop then the stealth. It is also possible the 18650 has less voltage drop under load. I guess the next thing I would check is the ggts ugly mode with 18350 battery see if it still has the burnt taste. If it does then it is something with the GGTS connector if it doesn't it means the 18650 has less voltage loss under load.
Also there was a post a couple weeks ago where it was determined that the posters connector was acting almost like a capacitor. I noticed the same thing the other day. When I stuck my multi meter on my ggts and hit the button it read 6.4v but even when I let the button off it continued to read 1.4v and dropped slowly from there. I believe the OP was a UFS connector but that is very similar to the GGTS connector.

Had to have a go at this but with my fave wire .2 Kanthal and silver crimps alike my usual setup previously posted and also added another strand of stock ody wick,
comes in at 1.1 ohms, but in terms of production its freaking mind blowing.

That coil is too good looking to vape good.
Nice job!
awesome job there Oddy....I'm dying to try one out myself (no crimp beads for me), will give it a shot this weekend
vapes too well too Yeti, blows your head away at 4.2 fresh of the charger. was buzzin when it was coming together and hoping it wasn't gonna be a dissapointment. its zapping batteries and guzzling juice though
thanks shaitaan
thanks shaitaan
Picture perfect coil there Oddy I'm waiting on some of the new 18650 IMR 2000mah batts to arrive before building more DC's, I'm afraid I'll kill the 2 old ones I have as they're over a year old now and seem to drain incredibly fast on a DC lol.

its not quite double the time but its double the range, single range 0.3v Vs dual 0.6v range. i dunno if that makes any sense really but its what i seem to be experiencing thus far.
Don't think there is any going back for me. in stealth an 18350 is getting near on the 3mls in the ody in this setup, hardly a chore to switch out a batt when you refill or visa versa

Yeah, only 1 set of AW LifePo 3.2 batts are new all my other batts are over a year old now and have been recharged to death I think lol, I've got new ones coming though and have high hopes for the new AW IMR 18650 2000mah ones

Wow, Thanks very much Oddy, I was waiting to someone to post a pic of the dual coil to figure out how it looks. Now Im ready to try it.
Again Thanks!!!
God that coil is beautiful... I knew mine looks like crap... but damn that's pretty.
Made my first one today, screwed it up a little but it still seems to work. No idea what ohm it is as my multimeter is broken (well, missing parts thanks to my son) but it is putting out well. Gets warm pretty quick though, have it on a stealth so we'll see how bad the battery life is.

Just to report back - I did have a short in my 510 adapter which was causing my blown fuses, tossed it. Now I'm stuck with the stealth cap and no air control until Imeo gets us the GG specific Ody connection.
Still no idea why I was getting burnt taste with the DC on GGTS and no burnt taste on Stealth.
The DC coil worked well for me (for about 4 days before it started dropping in performance), but I think it's just not for me - too much warmth and eats bats & juice too fast for my liking. Single coil at 1.5-1.6 at 3.7v seems to be my sweet spot! Gotta love the Ody for its flexibility though!

you dont get the right voltage on your stealth so it doesnt burn your juice. When my new springs will be ready you will buy one very cheap and then your stealth will burn your juice almost the same as the GGTS Yeti

Thanks Imeo - I shoulda known the spring was the weak link. ;-) I run my GGTS spring-less just for this reason. I'm currently running the Ody on my GGTS with stealth cap and 18350 in shorty mode and loving it!
This is one of the reasons I love GG - I can have a different looking/performing setup almost every day! My co-workers never know what I'll show up with next.
Any idea when we'll see these new springs at COV?

My ody just arrived, followed the video and whoaaaaa!!! Instant OD!!! Will have to drop my nic level now
