I built a twisted kanthal build just for fun worked fine can't seem to get the nickle to work. Just says " low resistance " im useing 22g ni 200 pure nickle no matter what I try won't read dual single even tried a twisted build tonight just won't read... How many wraps should you use for nickle ?
I wrap 28G nickel on a 8/32 machine screw 7 wraps for dual coils at .08ohm. Just a thought, but you are switching the Sigelei to Temp mode right? I only ask as I have done this a few times... fought with all my coils being to low and kept ripping them out to rebuild larger to finally realize I was still in wattage mode instead of Temp.
If I am reading you right, there is your problem right there. 28awg Ni200 is pretty low resistance, 22awg Ni200??? I don't think you'll get a coil reading that will fire without 40 or so wraps per coil. I use 28awg Ni200 single coils at about 12 wraps on a #14 machinist screw (approx 1/4 inch ID) and I ohm out at around 0.15 to 0.18ish.
@IMFire3605 I agree, fiddling with steam engine with some random parameters, looks like its 25 wraps for a .1Ω single coil build...i don't think that will fit inside the mutation x. I have a hard enough time getting resistance with 28g but managed dual coils in the Velocity
dual coil around 2.5 mm screwdriver with 14 wraps per side gave me .12ohms maybe you forgot to switch it into joules mode i think the 150watt tc is like the ipv4 where you hit the fire button 5 times then press it till you get to power/joules mode and use the +/- buttons to change that just a suggestion i have made many stupid mistakes myself before
i know if i forget to go into temp mode my ipv4 will say low resistance or check attomizer till i go into joules mode

Many times i have done this on my IPV4. I use tc in my subtank and normal Kanthal in my drippers. some times when I switch to teh tank i forget to switch to TC mode adn it says low resistance and wont fire.
28 gauge for single coils, 30 gauge for dual coils. Twisted 30 gauge single coil, twisted 32 gauge dual coils.So what's a recommended gave nickle coil to use in the mutation v4? cant seem to get this nickle coil building right
Dual 28 g is easy too, and a touch easier to build than 30. At least imo. I would try something like 8 wraps 2.5mm diameter. Dual coils should be somewhere around .8ohm.
Meh, I've dont all those fancy coils; claptons, zippers, you name it. Nothing works better than a simple micro coil in my opinion. Claptons sure are fun to make though.
