Micro dual coil question

[PoeDung]

Hello,
I'm looking at starting to build micro dual coils on my igo w. I'm using 30gauge kanthal around a 1/16 screw driver. How many wraps for each side would I need to get around a 1.5-1.6 ohm reading?
Thanks

do you want a reading of one coil at 1.5Ω's or total resistance at 1.5? if you want a total resistance of 1.5 your one single coil would need a resistance of 3 ohms, this would most likely require about 14 wraps(just a guess). if your looking for one coil at 1.5 it would be half, so around 7 wraps( there again because I don't use 30g, its just an approximation) if you are looking for the latter, your total resistance will be about .8Ω ( this is what I would recommend) sorry after reading your post again I see you said "each side" sorry. so im guessing about 6 or 7
