Burning in sub ohm

[Fittytigsic]

Hey y'all!
So I have never really ventured below .6-.7 ohms before, and I just decided to build a twisted 28 gauge super nano coil(I hate that name)….
But I have it sitting on some cotton which in my opinion is a decent amount.. I have it in a trident v1 with no drilled out holes, just on the 2mm stock hole….why am I getting burning? Im putting a generous amount of juice on it, my coil is basically perfect….not to toot my own horn or anything, and the cotton and coil are correctly placed….hmmm

Any advice from you sub-ohmers out there?

EDIT: and by the way…its reading at .43 ohms and there are no shorts in the coil I checked very carefully
also, I know my safety…I have a 30 amp battery and am constantly checking the heat and all that jazz so please no lectures or redditt hyperlinks to how sub ohming is dangerous…Thanks

hmm too much cotton possible? have you tried using less, you may be overstuffing underneath that sucker. glad to see you made sure to mention you know your safety, I got ripped a new one for not mentioning it in a post

hmmm definite possibility.. will that cause burning if it is overstuffed? and haha i see that all the time i hate it so much

I say same, cotton is tucked too tight under the coil. You get the same if you put too much through a micro coil. Then cotton doesn't get wicked enough causing burning.

you know, the only real problems ive had with overstuffing are normally wicking issues, but that's all I can really seem to think of

edit: oh your on stock air holes, you def should drill those suckers bigger man. I bet your coil is not getting enough air flow to keep that sucker cooled enough. I had mine drilled a little smaller than a 1/8 drill bit, but I just went for it on one of my rda's and drilled to 1/8 and its def made a difference!

Try non-twisted dual nanos at the same resistance or a touch higher (like 0.5). I'm sure twisted nanos have been accomplished before, but it seems like there would be a lot of wire surface not touching the wick, creating dry spots and burnt taste. Or, be more likely to.

2mm should be plenty of airflow.

Wrap it around a 3/32 bit 5/6 or 6/7 wraps use cotton or 4 pcs of cotton yarn (fold into half then another and fish through)

Every time I've done a SNC on a bed of cotton, I end up dripping a LOT, as in every 3 puffs. I've found that if the cotton bed isn't SUPER saturated, it burns and tastes horrible.
