So it was time to recoil my Igo-L. I usually use 30 gauge kanthal for my coils, sometimes 28 if I wana go super low ohms. But I realized I totally ran out of 28 and 30 gauge wire. Time for another order. Since all I have is a 100 ft spool of 32 gauge (6 bucks off eBay + free shipping) it was a no brainer to use this. I noticed a huge difference in vapor production (or lack of it) when I fire it up with my k100 with a fresh battery. I had to switch to my Vamo and turn up the watts to get the vapor production I am used to.

When I used 30 gauge I would be able to make coils at 1.4- 1.6 ohms and fire it up with my k100 and get huge amounts of vapor. This time with 32 gauge it actually reads 2.1 ohms but get sub par vapor production IMO. Had to drip with my Vamo instead. In this case ohms vs. watts/ volts made a huge difference.
