The battery has 5 legs at the positive contact. I will try to build a coil with kanthal wire (26g-28g) tomorrow as I only got 20 g and 24g. Is the Geekvape GBOX Squonker 200W Box mod better or what I should get for the Drop rda?
I have thé gbox I was going to get get the capo squonk but I waited a bit and read reviews then saw the gbox and I'm really satisfied with it

I got the G box kit and I can see a big difference between the capo and the G box.
Now I'm using the Radar on the Capo Squonker with dual coils of 0.65 ohms (total) 28g kanthal wire, 6 turns and 3mm inner diameter as it was easier to build with the 28g on it as it have smaller holes unlike the Drop .
I'm now facing 2 problems on the Drop ,why is it that even with 0 nicotine I'm still having big throat hits and I start to cough? I used 24g kanthal A1 wire with 9 wraps and 3.5mm inner diameter Dual coils as well. I changed two different liquid brands and still same. Am I doing something wrong? Now I did removed one coil from the Drop and come to.98 ohm.

What materials do you have?
I have kanthal A1 wire gauge 20, gauge 24 ad gauge 28. Then I have SS 316L gauge 24.
Cotton I have cotton bacon and cotton giant.
I cannot understand now is a 0.3/0.5 ohm coil less stronger than 0.65 ohm coil? All I understand is the lower the ohm is the stronger it will be hope I'm not confusing everything now.

Normal build for the Drop. It is a DTL rda designed for the YouTube reviewers :)

Note the distance of the coil to the airflow holes. To "properly" use it, you need a real fast and non-stop draw to cool the coils down, especially at high wattage, or you'll get that bad "throat hit" (ok...a dry hit).

To fix: Loosen the screws and push the coils closer to the air holes. The closer the better especially if you do slow DTL.

Hope this helps.
