I'm currently shopping for a new vape, but in the meantime I have these that a wonderful friend here sent me and I have no clue how to do the coils for these... I do build my own coils so don't have a issue with that, but just don't know how to situate them for these.

If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it!

On the 3 post atty, the center post is your positive. Side posts are negatives. Build your coil or coils if you want to run duals, unscrew the post screws and wrap the the leads around the post screws & tighten them down. Then wick your coils how you want.
The 2 post atty looks like a single coil atty, but to install a coil, unscrew the post screws and insert coil leads through the post holes. Simple building :)

I can't see what the coil on the left is doing, is it just connected to the positive and the far left connection is left empty? And I'd suppose they are floating... then would I just add cotton around them or around & through as usual? The intake on both is only one hole each.

The 2 post atty can do dual coils and the 3 poster can do 4 coils if you choose. Although the actual coil quantity is going to be dependent on intake air holes and their positioning in relation to the coils.

Thanks so much!!!! :headbang:

Both sides should be as identical as you can make them.
The far side will look like the near side, & if you spin it you will not know which coil you did 1st.

But in that photo, it looks like the far coil is just attached to the far screw only and just floating and the coil closest looks like it only goes to the center post only. So, is the closest screw left empty? Sorry, I can't see the other side of photo, lol (I'm a dummy, trying to learn something new with these!) Thanks for everyone's patience!!!

both coils have 1 lead in the center post. the other ends of the coils go to their respective side posts. Theres no floating leads, the coil would never get hot. ultimately, you should have bot coils in the center post, and 1 lead on each of the outer posts.

Russ has a simple video which shows how to make coils.

Search YouTube, there are 1000's of tutorials.
