    I cannot build anything

    At your point now, yeah it might be. At my point however, I could really make use of a 50 Watt mod. 6 months ago I never went past 8 watts, and thought that was super high for me. Now I am rarely under 18 watts. Lol.

    I really need to pick up a Magma. And some wide bore drip tips. And another box mod higher than 20 watts. And some more VTC5's so I can phase out my Efest completely. And a new Ohmmeter. And a few more KFL+'s. My poor list keeps growing and growing, but for now it's time to focus on my bike...

    looks pretty good. Keep trying to get that coil perfectly placed centered over the air hole though. Looks to be still a tad close to the post's.

    That was my original thought, but all read the same on ohm meter, multi meter, and, 2 other devices with resistance checkers built in. Never full ohm off or anything like that, just subtle point 1 to point 3 off. I determined it to be the leg length. Rational how I came to that was by removing...

    Lol. Not really. A set of calibers is nice to have, but certainly not required. I honestly don't think I know anyone who actually measures. We all just eyeball our placement. It's like everything else... Pretty subjective.

    +/- of using contact coil over non-contact ????

    I personally get much better consistency from contact coils. I also find them much much easier to place in whatever topper I am building for.

    Thats exactly what it means. Measured from the center of the coil to the point it touches the connection.

    Keep at it. You'll get it. You might be better served though, just learning for one. Instead of jumping around trying to build for multiple devices, maybe just stick with one of them. Once you get that down, then move into other ones. As you know, each one is a little different, but the...

    I cannot build anything

    The first one is how many coils I messed up yesterday trying to get a 1.1 ohm duel coil. The second is what I finally ended up with after a while. The point is that sometimes it takes a while to get things right. I personally think what I settled on is still pretty ugly, but it works pretty good...

    Reading comments on the proposed FDA Regs... You people worry me

    I have read through all the posts here so far and find it rather amusing, however, all I have to say is this. Look at any press conference held by the president, congress member, other elected officials, or even the nightly new broadcasters. When the elected top officials for a country, and the...

    Thought this guys video could help you out a little bit. Wire difference, reason to use what, etc.

    Way to go! Wicking is a whole different animal itself. No where close to as hard as coils, but there is a finess to it also. I'm still learning lots of new ways for wicking myself.

    If you want 2.5, I'd go with about 10 of 30awg. Should be pretty close with 2mm mandrel. I haven't built that high for a while now. Not since my first few Kangertech coils.

    You're using steam-engine? It's usualy pretty close for me. Consistent 2 wraps higher than I use, but never as many as yours. Did you change the leg length and you did select single coil?

    I cannot build anything

    Looking better. I personally think that's a whole lot of wraps, but That's just me. I would try maybe some 28 or 30 awg wire with less wraps to reach that resistance but make the length of the coil a little smaller. Reason why I say that, is simply due to the leg you have on top of the coil...

    Yep. Just use the mandrel through the coil to adjust it. When it is where you want it, remove and pulse fire and work out the hot spots by pulse firing and squeezing the coil. If the coil moved any, reinsert the mandrel and adjust it where you want it.

    Have you tried to to just lay it there and get the coil snug then worry about adjusting it after its snug? I rarely get my coils placed where I want them first time. I just get it close, then I nudge it where I want. Then I fully tighten. I just snug it enough to not slip out of the posts.

    I see. That might be tricky for a beginner being so short. I would say you probably would have an easier time with drill bits or screw drivers. I should look into getting one of those myself though. Can't bring myself to spend that much on it though since I could make one on my own.

    Probably a good price, but honestly if you're having trouble with the jig, You may have more trouble with using drill bits. Can be hard to hold and wrap. Can you change the post sizes on the jig you bought? Maybe post a picture of it. You honestly can go with some cheap drill bits if thats what...

    Ehpro Kayfun Lite Plus V2 questions

    I apologize. I was wrong in what I posted earlier. I was confusing another product with this. Also the tobeco v3 I mentioned was another brain fart. It was actually a misprint on a 3.1 from alibaba.
