So, I've built coils forever in the kayfun, from dual, to chimney coil, to reg style straight foward, When I had my protank I took them apart and made micro coils with cotton. I just said that to show I've done them before, and have a Ohm meter and also use Coil Toy - Online calculator for e-cigarette resistance coil building to guestamte what I'm working around.

Anyhow, I just got a cheap nembus clone, and I mean its a cheap one, drilled out the hole for more air flow. Here's my problem. Ok, now I know one of them is, the only mod I have is the Smoktech SID but. No matter what coil I build be it dual 1.2 - 1.5ohmz or a single, whatever circumference, whatever gauge what I have 32, 29, 28 I cant get it to create mass vapor with the bell off. I've wicked it so many different ways, Watched RIP Trippers videos on his wicking styles, others. The other problem is when I do get "some" decent pulling the vape up with the top cap on, and then using it, the vape is super cool. I like my Kayfun style WARM vape. No matter how I build it, I've gone through so many techniques, I can't get it to be warm or just produce (with top cap off) the vape that you see in videos. So the only thing I can think of, is the addy being the cheap nimbus clone mixed with the Smoktech SID. I'm out of ideas of what coil to make above 1.2ohmz to get a good warm vape, with decent vapor... Long rant but I had to tell the story I've messed with the last few hours or more. Any help much appreciated. Thanks!

Since it is a Smoktech SID I'm going to wrap 32g at higher Omhz see if I can't get some heat. I know that sounds backwards but since it is a smoktech sid and I can't sub ohm ..6 - .9 I might have to deal with just going higher ohmz in the RDA. My Kayfun is 1.4ohmz and I'm assuming because of that bell is so small the heat generated is greater. Shrug, I don't know I'm out of ideas. I don't like cool vapes. I always see RIP talking about his and damn that's warm or whatever. But my first rda and a million builds I get nothing but cool vape.

Yeah, I looked over RIPs videos since he's so clean at his builds, and analyzed where the coils were on the posts. So I thought hmmmmm, then I did the exact same thing, not on top of the post but MUCH closer than I had it. After that the vape became much warmer. I had them pulled out far, and kept building them that way. Anyhow it seems so far it works. I can't vape right now because I've hit that damn thing so many times I'm going to pass out from even 6mg and 12mg hits. If I have it wide open, I'll blow a hurricane. I didn't know what I was doing so I saw this guys videos that I follow and he has the actual Nimbus or maybe the XL clone. Figuured out oh he's doing 2mm holes on each side. Mine has one hole so I said PERFECT, I'm a single coil guy. So I drilled 2mm hole out of it not thinking about it and inhaled and BAAAAAAAAM! HAHA!

Here's the videos, I'll eventually be into cloud chasing once I get the income and have 3mg to 0nic for that stuff but he had the same clone heavly moded.
First one, and then second one lol! Why I drilled out the whole massive.
