RDA 2x twisted 28 gauge kantal, ohms?

[Niklas Jonsson]

Hi! I took a piece of twisted 28 gauge and twisted that. I don't have an ohm meter at the moment, what should i build looking for a resistance between 0,14-0,25 ohms

You need heavier wire or about 4strands or so twisted and multiple coils to get that low.

AND without a meter you should NOT even be considering a build, PERIOD.

Use Steam-engine.org to model some coils.

Maybe one wrap on a 3mm mandrel, or 2 on 2mm. And that's .3. What device are you putting this on? Without a meter, I wouldn't try it on a single battery mech. Unless you meant dual coils, in which case 4/3 wraps each coil on 3mm should get you close to .3.
Sorry, just saw you twisted some already twisted.. Scratch everything I said.

I would do 6 or 7 wraps and check your ohms on a regulated device-----it will give you an ohms reading--before you fire it check

first especially going for that low.......be careful....

It's an unregulated dual parallel 18650 box mod, i think that the wire is somewhat close to 22 gauge now, so maybe 4 wraps single coil shoud do the trick

got 2 VTC4's in there, continous 30 amp

right now i'm running a dual twisted 28 gauge setup, about 0,3 ohms, but i want to get somwhere around 0,15-0,2 for them clouds, only getting somewhere around 57 watts now so

4 strands of 28 twisted will have a descent amount mass for the resistance. You have some good headroom with VTC4s in parallel. I'd still be nervous building with wire I haven't used a bunch before without a meter.

3 wide spaced wrap duals has been my favorite for a while, sometimes four.

I'd go with 4 wide spaced wraps 3.6mm-4mm ID duals.
