You're not alone my friend, I like braided coils too.
I've used the Geekvape alpha braids, Coilology braided, and Vertebraid from AVS. All of them have been great coils/wire.
I prefer the coils from AVS, but the Coilology are good 'budget' coils and come in both SS316 and Ni80. You can get a 10 pack of the Coilology for $3. Hard to beat.
Agree, the ramp up is nice, and it gives a good dense vapor production. My only issue with them is I prefer a cooler vape. I tend to get a bit of spitting with them. Increasing the wattage takes care of that, but then the vape starts getting warm to me.
But, I still like/use them for sure. Been wrapping my own coils with Ni80 rectangle wire lately but I have a bunch of the braids sitting here for next time I recoil my RDAs.
