Can anyone help me, Im new to vaping. Im using the OBS cube pro. how low the resistance can go? I have coils with 0.12ohms when i put 2 coils in my automizer. i get short circuit error. but when i put only one it works. i tried putting the other side if its the issue but it also works fine. i also put the other coil if its the issue but it also works. the only time i get short is when i put both.

    The working resistance of the OBS Cube Pro is 0.1 ohm to 3 ohms. It will work with 1 coil at 0.12 ohms but if you put 2 coils in its halving the coil resistance to 0.06 ohms which takes it below the mods minimum working resistance.

    that make sense, so i need to buy a higher resistance wire then. thank you.

    Yes. When building a dual coil deck using the same resistance coils, the individual coil resistance will be halved. You can buy say 0.25 ohm coils and when fitting these on a dual deck the overal deck resistance will be 0.125.
    Alternatively if your making ur coils u can increase the number of wraps to alter the coil resistance.

    any recommended wire for high resist? im planning to buy a Clapton N90 24g. but not sure what is the ohms in it.
    Take a look at vapinghardware.com coil wrap calculator and you can see what type of wire and how many wraps needed to get the resistance you want.
