Guesstimating coil ohms.

[EmeraldLeo1982]

So I was careful and did my math on ohms per foot divided by 12, then measured out the appropriate length of wire and made my coil. I was shooting for 2.9ish ohms. It was a safe Ohm rating and it worked good, I had no multimeter to test it. So I throw it on this SVD I just recieved just to see how accurate my guess is...it says 3.9Ohms. Just goes to show even the best thought out guess can still be wrong and now I see why a multimeter or Ohm checking PV is so important.

Forgot to carry the one

It's good idea to start high rolling your own.

High rolling? Oh rolling it at higher ohms to begin with because it's safer. Yes I agree. There's more room for variance without killing your mod.

Heh, yah I could of phrased that better
