Dual coil building

Not open for further replies.
So I just started getting into building my own coils. I'm a huge fan of dual coil builds and sub ohm vaping. I take the right precautions and vape safely. However, I was curious about whether or not you could have dual coils, but two different coils. So, for example, a dragon coil and then a micro coil on the other side. The only problem I can think of would be an uneven juice saturation. I could be completely wrong, but I wanted to ask some more experienced vapors first. Thanks,

yes you can, i think so long as you keep them both about the same Ω then you won't get one firing up more then the other and you shouldnt have a prob :)

infact i dont see why you cant have one fire up more then the other to compensate for the dif style coil as in like a nano coil on a bed of cotton firing up slower then say a micro on the otherside might work good, you'd prob be better going a bit bigger on the id and doing a macro instead of micro, but tbh with you i dont bother with duals all that much, a good hitting single coil with less battery drainage is enough for me, and im by no means a light weight, i use to smoke cigar style :D

Hey slippy eel, hope you're having a good day so far. I was wondering if you have any single coil builds that you could recommend. I have tried one or two, but they just weren't enough for me. And can you quickly go over the difference between a macro and micro coil for me really quickly? I was told a while back but cannot recall. Thanks so much,

heyup! :)

yes
supernano is under 1mm id(inside diameter)
nano is 1mm id
MICRO is 1.4-1.65mm id
MACRO is above 1.65mm id

i pretty much use micro's coils all the time and if not then im probably using something with a micro coil id 1.4-1.65 id
check out the threads im gonna link here:

try a braided, 4 strands of 32g braided, wrapped around 1.5mmid 6 wraps will get 0.5Ω

you have to get your airhole & coil bang on center with each other and as close as you can without shorting your coil on the inside of your cap

so once youv put your cap on check for shorts with multi meter before firing cus sometimes you can hit the coil with the cap by mistake :)

if you want more throat hit you can move your coil up
if you want more flavour move it below your airhole
