    multi meter fractions

    Hi guys, Do you know if there are multi meters out there ($20 and under range) that show fractions for ohms? I'm still getting an ohm meter which will obviously get me that, like 1.54 or .18 of an ohm, but I was wondering if there are ohm meters that are fairly cheap and show that type of...

    parallel coil analysis

    There is no space between his loops. Not in parallel and not in single. So let me get this straight - the length of the wire he's using for that parallel coil is half of the length that he's using for a single correct? Because if that's the case it would make sense why it's quarter the...

    parallel coil analysis

    No dude he's got 4 wraps on a parallel coil and I believe 8 on a single Maybe a dumb question but what's a spire? In this context at least. I did a goggle search for it and got some goofy crap come up.

    parallel coil analysis

    Guys here's the link as requested, hopefully it works with embedding: Parallel Coil Build: http://youtu.be/9MNJuYuwgwI I understand that the res is cut but what doesn't make sense is if single coil is pushing out .8 as rip said why is the parallel pushing out .25? Shouldn't it push out .4?

    it did, any little bit helps, the steam engine is great but so is this :) I love this community, all of you guys (and girls) are great :) :) :)

    Thinking About Giving Up...

    just don't go back to cancer sticks, I got my kanger with nic in it for all day use until I get home, I keep my atlantis and my plume veil rda nice and safe and it doesn't leave the house, unless I'm going somewhere like I did this weekend to visit my folks with my girl and brought a bunch of my...

    parallel coil analysis

    So I was watching Rip Tripper make a parallel coil yesterday and something doesn't make sense. He compared his parallel coil to a single wire coil (same gauge, same diameter, same length - coil wise, not wire wise), and it was significantly lower in ohms. But if he's using twice the amount of...

    Coil Diameter Reference

    I found an old thread where some ECF user created a spreadsheet for coil diameter, how may ohms per wire gauge and so forth, but I think that sheet is corrupted 'cause I downloaded it and it wouldn't open in excel. Do you guys know if there is anything else out there similar to that which...

    Apollo clone mod questions

    Thanks dude, aside of battery voltage and coil resistance is there anything else I can check for on my multi-meter? As Chris said above I won't be able to check for resistance on the hybrid body

    Apollo clone mod questions

    Yup, and at 35 amps I'm already 5 amps over the battery's limit, something I wouldn't attempt 'cause I don't want to put stress on the battery, better safe than sorry No offense taken and any feedback you guys give me is dully noted and definitely taken to heart. I simply want more flavor and...

    Apollo clone mod questions

    so I just did some calculations, aaaand..... if sony's have a max continuous discharging current of 30 amps, at a 3.6 voltage, then that would put me at .12 ohm that I should build my coils at, which should be absolute lowest. Correct? or should I use 4.2 volts like Baditude says in his "ohms...

    Apollo clone mod questions

    I know dude, I got more to learn, even though I do know ohm's law and how it relates to coils and wraps and all I know I still got more to learn. Atlantis (by aspire) is already sub ohm but that's a regulated mod. I've built one coil 2 days ago on my atty as opposed to running it dual and it...

    Apollo clone mod questions

    I've actually just looked at my plume veil atty, and the positive pin is clearly separated from the screw, I guess I was originally getting confused on this part since I knew that it had to get screwed into the hybrid connection. One last quick question - would I still need an ohm meter if the...

    Apollo clone mod questions

    Thanks Chris, I didn't personally like the look of the desert clone killer, I've ordered Apollo earlier on today, still didn't order the batteries or the charger yet but that's getting ordered either tomorrow or the day after. So I read that with a fuse (I looked into the 2 cent fuse 'cause...

    Apollo clone mod questions

    ok so I'm confused about something, I found that in order to check for shorts on a mod body you touch the positive pin on the top where it would normally connect to the atty and the negative prong to the body of the mod. But if the Apollo has a hybrid connection (510) wouldn't that...

    Apollo clone mod questions

    how do I check for shorts on the mod? not the atty but the mod? Any suggestions? I've looked online but didn't find anything specific

    Apollo clone mod questions

    Hey dude, I already have a regulated device and do have experience building rdas. I'm still doing research but the more I learn the more confident I am that that Sony 18650 vtc4 30 amp will be a good fit for my .15 to .2 range. Any good tips on checking for shorts?
