Its kanthal 24g running atm on 55w with 6mg Nic 70/30, its wicked with Japanese cotton just the stuff that comes with the coil master kit, no I didn't check, could that be the issue
Yarp.. I would pull the wicks and check my work.
Confirm your coils are heating evenly from the center out. Look for glowing legs.
Rewick the cotton snug but not too tight and start at 30-35 watts. Adjust the AFC and your inhale speed to tune the build. as you increase power, open the AFC to keep up.
Have fun

I checked on there first but it was comin out abit higher so I thought another few wraps would bring it down abit,
And, make sure to prime your coil (get some juice in it first) Personally, I like to start "low" on a new coil (even rewicked) and bring it up to my desired vape level. You might need to rewick to clean out the burnt taste.
But as mentioned above, duallies should be identical coils. The balanced load will distribute the current evenly.

I remember when I made my first coil...twisted it up real nice, wicked it, juiced it, threw the top cap on with a giant smile, 3 seconds later I was coughing so hard my co-pilots in my briefs hurt and my eyes were watering lol. I've found most issues with builds come from wicking and not the actual coil itself (assuming they are heating up evenly)
One thing to keep in mind is that cotton expands as it absorbs juice so if they are really tight inside the coil dry, they won't do their job very well when they fill up with juice.
Don't give up though, it's something that requires some patience and attention to detail but once you get it the first time, it only gets easier with every build!
