Coil Obsession

[winx19]

Hi All,

as per the topic above.

I have been obsessed with building coil every now and then, trying out different ways to coil. Twisted, parallel, clapton and etc. getting all sort of wires, Nickel / Titanium / Stainless steel (didnt managed to get yet). Uses A ipv 4s box mod

anyone share the same?

wifey using a subox nano, i have been tryin to re build the occ for weeks. anyone successfully done it? Most vids / threads are OCC v1, any tips would be great.

im using RTA and rda, switching around. do share your build.

Kanthal 28AWG (6 wraps) - 0.8ohms

Jus started using my RBA - still trying to get it right though..
i noticed from your pic posted - your coils are closed up, is there a reason for it not to be spaced out?
Im also on Khantal 28awg 5 coils gives me 1.15ohms.. is there something im missing here?

At 1.15ohms 20watss - 40watts - it vapes with vapour but no flavour

Why not try a 0.5 ohm build, provided you have a good battery, for safety reasons.

More power = warmer vape = flavour intensifies.

According to ohm's law calculator... a 1.15ohm build will max your power at only 15watts, maybe that's why.
With a 0.5ohm build, you can max out at 35 watts... assuming you're at 4.2 volts.

yeah I know tht part coz ive been using a stock .5 ohm occ... I must doing something wrong while coiling.. can't seem to get it to sub ohm

I find closed coil more flavour

Get some 26 or 24 gauge wires. 28 gauge too much resistance for a 5 wrap, definitely can't get a sub-ohm. There's nothing wrong with your coiling, confirm. Lower gauge = lower resistance BUT bigger diameter.

If you wanna get 0.5ohms with a 28gauge, it's probably around 2-3 wraps, which i think is too narrow... might give you major leaking issues. Have you tried the Coil Wrapping section in Steam-Engine? Coil wrapping | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators this has everything you need for coiling. it's like my other google hahaha

*Edit: Size of the hole of your coils also play a big part

yeah i guess as much on the wire guage.. im gona try a parellel twist and see if I can get it to sub ohm...

Actually I find 28G 10 wraps is as good as 24G 5 wraps.

The resistance on the 28g will quadruple, assuming the diameter of the coils are 2mm. Pros and cons... the 28g 10wraps has way more surface area but the wattage will feel as if I'm breathing normal air.
