I havnt used 24 gauge wire yet and looking to get a .08 gauge dual coil build how many wraps and what size should I wrap each coil I dnt have much supplies to do much trial and error thanks

Try using Steam Engine's coil wrapping calculator

do you realize that you will pull 48 A off of your battery and produce 200W with a .08 ohm coil set up????
to be on the safe side you should have a battery that is rated for 100A... dont think they have one yet ( well they do but it fits in the car)

I just saw that you are doing trial and error?? get an ohm meter before you try any thing else please
What you are asking is NOT ADVISEABLE because there is no battery rated for 48 amps continuous discharge rate, which is what you would be pulling from a 0.08 ohm build. Also, you'd be putting a lot of faith into an ohm meter to read that precisely and accurately at that low of a build.
I recommend that you learn Ohm's Law to understand what is safe and get yourself a decent Ohm meter.
We don't want what you see below to happen to you. That's what can happen if you push your battery too hard.

I did mean .8 and I meant I wanted the two coils together to read .8 my bad on the ohms
I'm not trying to blow my face off I usually vape at .6 ohms with 28awg just don't know how many wraps I need on a 1/16 bit to get .8 with 22awg I do have an ohm reader
Thanks for clarifying that. We get a lot of novices asking scarey questions on this board, and if you make typos or don't supply more info we tend to jump to conclusions for safety's sake.
Use the following link for calculating coil wraps:
Steam Engine Online Calculators
You'll need to make two (2) coils of 1.6 ohms; measure each one on a meter. Used together they will measure out to 0.8 ohms on a meter. You'll have to put in the info for the diameter that you'll be wrapping the coils. Be sure to measure the final ohms with a meter before firing the coils.

holimakaru I never used that calculator before I believe that was the best info given to me so far thanks
