Just to throw it out there I use 32 gauge for kanger rebuilds

I love working with 30 or 32 but the coil doesn't survive long during re-wicking. My 29 gauge coils last a month+ while my 30 gauge coils about three weeks or less, 32 gauge only a week or so. But I'm a klutz...:lol:

Give it a try, bet you find it easier than you think. I'm not as methodical as Megan, I just use any thing that's convenient to wind a coil, toothpick, large straightened out paperclip, little blue screwdrivers that come with a kayfun, q-tip, etc. I was using 30ga kanthal, but ran out a while back, so since I had roll of 28 ga I just started using it. I would recommend 30 or 32 ga to start with. 28 ga is rather large to get enough wraps to be able to fit. It works fine for me coming in around 0.9 ohms. I'm using a regulated mod so I can't really go much below that.

Always remember, be safe....

I started with 32, now I use 30, but I want to try 28 since I have a roll of it too. How many wraps do you usually do? I actually used the steam engine app to wrap my first coil on the Igo W with 30 and it came out spot on at 1.5. :2cool:
