You've got to try out this coil build!! It's all I put in my Cyclones w/AFC with both cyclops air holes wide open. Any juice I put through it tastes (for me and my wife) amazing.

I started building twisted single coils with 28g kanthal and its good, but I had ran out of 28g so I figured why not try some 26g instead. I'm glad I did, the flavor is even better with the twisted 26 vs the twisted 28g. So this is what I do, I'll take enough wire for two coils, about 8 to 10 inches, fold the wire in half and chuck up the leads in my cordless drill, I'll take my coil jig or small screw driver and loop the wire around it to hold it in place, then I'll fire up my drill and start twisting. I'll keep twisting the wire until it breaks free from the drill, then I'll throw the wire on my coil jig. On my jig I've got a 1/16 rod and 5/64 rod (those are just what I use). I'll make 6 wraps of twisted 26g around the 1/16 rod, then insert it into the cyclone, and wick it with my rayon. Adjust the coil as needed until it's firing the way you want it, look for the orange glow from the inside out. Once the coils cooled down wick it with your choice of wicking material, I only use rayon cause that's just what I've got.
Here's a few pics, if you decide you wanna try it let me know what you think. It took me a while to find my perfect vape on my Cyclones, this is my perfect Cyclone vape. I love it, the Cyclone is definitely one of my favorite atties and is always in use. The only time is not saddled on a Reo is when it's getting rebuilt with new coils or the Reo itself is being cleaned otherwise it's always got its place on one of my mods. Hope you all enjoy this as much as I do!!

Was in a hurry when I built mine.. I have a good build on the cyclone right now and don't want to wreck it.. so I used a rm4.

2mm rod on the coilmaster with 8 wraps.. kinda smashed as the coil is too long for the posts and real close to the cap. ends up at around .6 ohms. Need to build another next time at 7 wraps so there more room.

Using kgd for wick.. seems good so far but I won't know till I use it for a few hours.

Also note the holes on the posts just freaking fit the twisted 26 gage wire. Had to mess with it quite a bit to get it threw. Will need to open up those holes if I want to stick with this.
