Ok. You asked for it. Already posted but here it is again.


Here's my "Octo Micro Diamond Coil"

27 gauge, 40 wrap diamond, 0.82 ohms, threaded with 2mm cotton and a cotton cloud in the drip well of a chimbus rda.

Right around 0.82 ohms. A little higher than planned. The next one should be around 0.5, that's what I was going for.

Oh ok. There was this guy at my local shop the other day that made an octo-coil that looked similar and his was .14 ohms. Looked really cool and vaped like a fog machine.

I know going that low is dangerous, so I politely told him he was crazy. Was using an efest 30 amp battery, but even then he was pushing the limits.

WOW!!!. Does he have a death wish. Thats drawing 30 amps @ 126 watts. That's crazy dangerous. I would suggest you don't stand anywhere near him when he fires it.



Anyway. Looking for some crazy builds, not nessesarily sub ohm. Just some interesting designs.

My tiny hands, 30000/30000 vision test is to try and cram a dual coil into a PT 2 coil head. Just trying to suss out how to thread cotton around a curve ;-)

Ha , just tried it. Trouble is I have to pre thread the wick into the coils before popping the isulator back in so I can't dry burn them to check there are no 'semi shorts' and that the coil is burning evenly. It does work, 2 x 9 turns of 32swg kanthal in parallel. showing 1.4 ohms. Just works badly. I have made this my mission now. Anyone have any helpful ideas?

No, I only started building coils yesterday when my Kanthal arrived lol. I have got somewhat carried away, and now bored after rebuilding every coil in the house so trying out some crazy ..... now. I will be searching for vertical PT coil builds right away ;-)
ps: I can no longer vape the stock coils, they rally taste rank after using cotton.

You win, even if that wasn't your intent :). I'll be honest, I wouldn't have the patience to even try such a build, but it's eye candy for me to look at, enjoy and dream about ;). Not sure if my vaping style would even do something like that justice as I can't do massive clouds.
