I have 2 magmas myself. Love them to death. I still like my atomics too, but my kayfuns are collecting dust.
I picked up a Magma the other day and can't seem to get a good build on it.
My first attempt was dual 9wrap, 26g, 3/32id = .45ohms. I wicked it with cotton running down the well and covering only the base of the well. In other words, I didn't fill up the well with cotton. The result was a scorching hot vape.. I like a hot vape, but this was ridiculous. I've done the same build in myriad other rda's and it worked just fine.
So, I made the assumption that maybe the Magma functioned better at higher resistances, so I simply removed one coil. That left me with a single coil at .9ohms.. still scorching hot.
Ideas/recommendations?
Mine aren't hot to me with ~0.4ohm duals..26awg..try a higher resistance, but dual coil.I picked up a Magma the other day and can't seem to get a good build on it.

try a single coil 28 Guage parallel 4-5 wraps on 2.4ish mm got me. 5 ohms and it's not that hot of a vape quite comfortable actually for a sub ohm

You can get 1:1 clone from fasttech for about 14$. The quality is great as original one.
Got mine in 2 days early. It definitely lives up to the hype. I only have 2 complaints.
1) The 510 pin is a little too long for my MVP but it's not that big of an issue.
2) It holds too much juice! I'm used to being able to switch juice frequently on all my RDAs but this one just keeps vaping and vaping and vaping!![]()
