Dry burning used Kanger coils

Yes, finesse, along with eyesight, I no longer have at my age.
But maybe I'll fix that in a couple months with one of these:

How much are those?

How much are those?

About 5 bucks online from Walmart.

A friend has a pair I tried. 20X is more than I need. You can see everything! Nice SteamPunk accessory

I have a jewelers visor From Harbor Freight that is 4x to 7x for 5 bucks. Works great.

Mostly I use a pair of 3x reading glasses.

Commonly accepted on the forum , a micro coil is rolled on a 1/16" (1.5 mm) diameter cylinder or smaller and all the coils touch each other.

Here are 3 mature threads that helped me greatly in gaining a better understanding of rebuilding:

I guess I enjoy the hobby aspect of vaping. I have been rebuilding the atomizers for my Mini Protank 2s and Evods (interchangeable). I use Sugar and Cream cotton yarn, 5 wraps of 32 gauge Kanthal around the yarn and a paperclip (as something solid to wrap around). They come out at 2 ohms (give or take a few hundredths). Perfect for my Twists. As said above it is nice saving $3 a pop.

See chart: View attachment 306599. Micro coils are between 0.055" - 0.065". Bigger is Mini, standard, etc. Smaller is nano, super nano, etc.

Everything you ever wanted to know about coils in one easy sheet. That one is now saved to my desktop. Thanks.

Great chart. I would love to see the formulas for this or columns with fewer wraps and a 32 gauge category.

Thanks for the work you put into this!

Some of the formulas were prepared by aalawahi (?) from the vapor's tool box, and have been confirmed accurate on some builds I've seen. I can send you the excel sheet though and you can make your own chart(s). Just PM me. Happy to do it.

 

[Freeride]

Yup! And wait until you decide to rebuild 'em. They're even better then!

Absolutely! I can't believe the difference this made for me.

 

[katoptrizo]

Just started rebuilding mine and I absolutely love it! Can't stress enough though that if you're using cotton it is possible to taint a whole tank of juice if you burn it a bit.

Try soaking in vodka over night then rinsing with water then dry burning
