Coil help?

Okay, so I'm using pre-made coils at 1.5 ohms made from 24g nichrome and silica rope from fasttech. I added 2 wraps, so it is now 7/6. It should be at under 1 ohm now, correct? I have no ohm reader, so this is based on online calculators. If it is under 1 ohm, should the vapor still be cool? I was under the impression that the lower the ohms, the hotter the vapor. Thank you!

Right away I am gonna tell you to stop wrapping anything until you get an ohms meter. If you can't test it and are unsure of the resistance then it isn't safe to use.

Welcome to ECF, Austin...

Okay, so I'm using pre-made coils at 1.5 ohms made from 24g nichrome and silica rope from fasttech. 24 gauge Nichrome at 1.5Ω?
Check your information. The wire, wrap count and resistance don't make sense. What Nichrome? 20, 30, 60... what?
I added 2 wraps, so it is now 7/6. It should be at under 1 ohm now, correct?
Which means 5 wraps originally?
I have no ohm reader, so this is based on online calculators.
Not the best substitute for knowledge, experience... and validation with a meter.
If it is under 1 ohm, should the vapor still be cool?
Not really.
I was under the impression that the lower the ohms, the hotter the vapor.
Mostly... however, there are variables.
Thank you!

Very few people will be willing to help you if you don't have a ohm meter. They'd rather you didn't know, and hopefully not attempt... than freely support your ignorance or contribute to your possible injury.

Stop, put down the juice and step away from the atomizer!

Do not even think about going sub-ohm without more knowledge and proper measuring equipment.

BTW. More wraps means more resistance not less. Please educate yourself before you get into trouble and hurt yourself or someone else.
