Clapton

Hi. Clapton or regular(normal) coil will be better for flavor?

I get better performance from standard or parallel coils than Claptons.

No need to waste power heating all that metal.

 

[Paul lamb]

I find anything twisted Clapton tiger etc etc give better flavour

 

[Sangix]

Parallel coils all the way! Less popping as well.

Yep

I find everything except standard wraps give better flavour

Popping you get on flavour builds except parallel so I'm with you there mate

 

[Rixsta]

Alien Claptons ! but like mentioned already a nice parallel build is very good. Not had any popping from my Aliens

Depends on how good they been wrapped I believe mate

If the wrap is poor the juice sits on the internal wire and once heat hits the coil pop

But yeah if it's a decent wrap no issues at all

Yup, that's why they don't pop cause I ain't made um, I buy them already made

Haha

I can make a good Clapton but that's my best

Alien stapled fused zipper I get them made too

Complex coil builds don't offer any extra flavor.

I disagree my friend

But

We all take away different results from different vapes

I find a standard 5 wrap 26g vs the same but twisted

Twisted wins hands down

But that's me

Vape an Alien Clapton next to a standard 24g kanthal and the difference in flavor is massive

I've tried them all.
Honestly I get better, and more consistent performance from properly wrapped and wicked standard coils.

Exotic wires are cool looking but they don't offer any thing above a standard coil in terms of performance.

Parallel coils blow exotic wire coils away when it comes to performance.

I have.
Exotics offer nothing except looks and a long ramp up time.

But then again, I understand how to properly build and wick an atty.

Yes Ninja, I forgot you know everything, silly me to disagree

ROTFLMAO! Get him Rixy!

Pay attention, and you just might learn something.
Claptons and exotic wires are extremely inefficient.
Airflow, wicking and the contact area of the coils are the main players in coil performance.
That's why parallels perform so much better than Claptons or exotics.

If you need 100+ watts to make your coils perform you are doing something terribly wrong.

Massive amounts of twisted metal isn't going to make your vape perform better.


But I confess, they do look very very cool.

HA, Ninja is fine, still mad at me for riding my bike on his lawn, he ain't a bad old stick

Duly noted.....geez, he's only 7 years older than me

 

[Jonner]

Here's a stupid question:
When using a .45 ohm dual coil claptons on my Griffin, if I run it at a "low" wattage, say 31.1, it takes forever to ramp up, but if I go just a little higher, it keeps on sizzlin' after I stop hitting the power button. Thoughts?

Ya know what you're probably technically correct! But because I'm me I prefer Alien & Fused Claptons At 100w+!

Same here hehe, good to see you again Jonner, it's been a while, put the Griffin down and go vape that Starre tank !!
