Best Coil for Flavor Productioon

[Metalgear]

I have been wondering what the best coil for flavor production is. I have currently 28 and 26 gauge kanthal.

I always liked the flavor I get from twisted 28g kanthal. It sure eats through juice though. Plus it's something I can do without a drill.

There is no best gauge. Coil design and gauge is simply a matter of finding what tastes best for you.

Gauge, coil diameter & number of wraps only determines resistance. AFR (air fuel ratio) and coil temperature determine flavor.

how many ohms do you try to go for?

how many ohms do you try to go for?

That is determined by the design of the topper, and the power applied.
I use a 2 ohm coil in an A7, a 1.25 ohm coil in a kayfun, and a 0.4 ohm coil in a Nimbus. All three taste the same.

Basically, more air = less resistance coil to produce the same flavor.

your rda is a big factor in flavor too. i have a derringer clone with 22g dual coil 6/7 wraps comes out to .1 which is really low and gets kinda warm but the flavor i get is incredible

The best gauge will be the one you can build the biggest coil from... That you mod can fire. Your mod is going to help with any valid recommendation. If you have 20watts or less go with the 28 if you have more than 20watts try the 26.

This.

I'll have been vaping for 3 years next month. I've worked in a vape shop for a year, where all the employees built their own coils, many of them exotic coil builds, mostly sub-ohm. To me, the exotic coils did nothing to improve flavor or vapor production. I'm not personally a fan of real low resistance (below 0.5 ohm); too warm for my tastes.

I make simple micro-coils in all of my rebuildables. I use 28g Kanthal. 3mm diameter (larger coil is just easier to wick). 1.5 ohm for my Kayfun Lite Plus rebuildable tank atomizer which sits on a Provari. 0.6 ohm dual for my Patriot rebuildable drip atomizer (with enlarged air holes) which sits on an AltSmoke Silver Bullet. I use either Chinese cotton or cellucotton as my wick in both devices.

The most difficult unconventional coil wrap you can think of! Why? Because why not!! Then you can post pics of it and tell EVERYBODY how great the flavor is!!!
