So after almost a year of vaping with my Sigelei 150w I've decided to start building my own coils (I know I'm late to the party). Now I've been researching all the necessary info for the past 4 hours (materials needed, Ohm's Law, etc..), but I'm still a little confused about the science-y part of it all. So far, I understand that when building my dual coil setup I don't want to make it below a resistance that exceeds the batteries' amp limit. I use Samsung 25R batteries in my mod, and the Internet says for a Sigelei 150w, the batteries are in series, so (first point of needed clarification) I think that means I can't exceed 20A?
Next point of clarification is how to figure all of this out when my mod is Variable Wattage. That kind of throws a curve ball on the whole V= I*R equation when I'm trying to find I and V changes constantly.
(This is an aside more for people who have or have used the Sigelei 150w, but with every hit or push of the button the voltage reading on the display changes, anywhere from a max of 7.5 volts to a minimum of somewhere between high 4 to low 5. The ohm reading also changes from .3 to .5 but every so often it'll spike up to a random .7 or .9. Is this a common thing with the Sigelei or is it just me? It's been doing this ever since I got the mod but I never thought much of it till just today.)
So how do I find "I" when all I'll have is "R" and a "V" that changes with every hit? And how does increasing/ decreasing the wattage affect that?
Also, I plan on buying 24 gauge Kanthal wire because it seems like a decent size, but how will I know how much resistance it gives off? I mean without an ohm reader, because I heard that those are often unreliable.
Basically this all sprouted from me not knowing what coil building kit to get because I didn't know what materials I needed, because I didn't know how to do it, because I didn't know how it all worked. So it all kinda snowballed into me spending hours trying to research and figure it out, but now I have more questions than before lol. Bottom line, in addition to answers to all the above questions, if anyone knows a good coil building kit that would be great as well
Thanks for all the help in advance, I know I probably sound really confused so thanks for bearing with me.
