my brother in law bought me an igo w3 I went ahead and out 2 micro coils 9 wraps in it its a .6 ohm setup but it doesn't seem right this rda is great I love it but I feel like im not getting the most out of it. I want a good mix of vapor, hit and flavor so if there are any tips on what coils or how to put them in ie, vertical or horizontal and dual or quads please let me know

im using a chi you clone and efest 1600 mah 30 amp batteries if it helps

Try this, get a thumb tack and wrap 6 wraps of 28 ga or 8 of 32 ga in a microcoil. Wick it up with some cotton ball wicking and try it at 3.7 - 4.3. If that works for you and you want to get more, do the same thing but add 2 more wraps to 2 coils and dual them at 3.7. This should be a good start, just make sure to read the resistance first. My math could be off.

what is not right? not enough vapor? not enough flavor? not enough throat hit? did you drill out the air hole. I can't remember but i think it comes with a pretty small air hole. I drilled mine out to at least 2.5mm (personal preference) but you can just go a little bigger and try it and keep going bigger til you get the right air flow.

if you arne't getting enough vapor, make sure the coil is right at the air hole and if you want clouds you will want to use 100%VG or something close to it.

My IGO W3 with a quad microcoils built with 6 wrap microcoils and 2mm ekowool 28g kanthal. The way I did it was by literally wrapping the microcoils on the ekowool. I did not make them before, torch them, and then thread the wick through. It was incredibly tedious and took the better part on an hour. This atty is a pain but once built right it makes a ton of vapor and burn through juice like you wouldn't believe. The only other piece of advice is to close the airholes just a little, they are almost too big all the way open

Good luck!

im using the igo w3 its the one with the 5 post for quad coils if you want to run them and the air flow options and I don't like the flavor vapor or hit im getting from it

Try covering one of the holes...
I have the same one, its wayyyyy too airy and it feels like im drinking my ejuice.
Seal off one of the air holes and ot hits much better.
