Calculating resistance

[Wake'n'Vape]

Just got into rda's after ordering my first one - a velocity clone. Loving it so far, I've just been playing around with different coil builds, which I have found to be quite addicting

So far i've had twisted, parallel and now dual claptons in there at .35 which seem to perform best imo. I have been using steam engine calc to work out how many wraps I need to be doing for each build, but now I want to try dual fused claptons 26ga wrapped with 32ga kanthal, how many wraps would I have to do in order to get .3-.4.

Thanks

You can get a rough estimate of the final resistance of a clapton by using steam engine based on the core. So in your case twisted 26G. The reason being that electricity will flow down the path of least resistance, in this case the core not the outer wrap. The outer wrap does have a small influence over final resistance but not much.

Dual coil 10 wraps each ~ 0.3 ohms approximately

Steam-engine has a clapton calculator.... Look at the Wire Wizard tab
