I don't have a Billow but assuming that the wire is A1 Kanthal, 26 gauge (can't be run in TC mode).

If that is true, then the below will give you approximately 0.5Ω build.
  • two (2) coils
  • 26 gauge A1 Kanthal
  • 8 wraps each
  • using a 2.5mm tool to wrap on
Here's what it looks like in Steam Engine (a coiling calculator)

If you don't have a 2.5mm tool to wrap your coils then just change the "inner diameter of coil" in Steam Engine.

See this review on how to build & wick.

I would stick to A-1 Kanthal for now, probably 26 gauge. That is what I always use on my billow v2. Keep the ohms around .40 to .50 and that tank is awesome. Pretty easy to build and wick. I usually do 7/6 wrap dual micro coil around a 2.5mm tool. Anything bigger in diameter seems to hinder the airflow. If you have a android smart phone, a great app to help you build coils is called vaporcalc. I use it all the time.

Do you have local vape shops? If you do, they may carry wire. I'm not up to speed on the laws in Thailand regarding vaping.

You could also check out this non-ECF Forum for sources: Thailand Vapers

That website will be helping alots , there is no local vape shop in here , even the e juicy , this y I need to get more detail of wire type and the ohm vault age thing ^^

I have the full size Billow V2. I think it's the same base as the Nano, just has a bigger tank. I use 28 Gauge Kanthal A1. 8 wraps per coil. 3 mm diameter. .8 ohms. I run it at 30 watts. The tank was a little tricky to wick the first time, but once I figured it out it works great.

Yeah, the wicking is tricky until you figure it out. Takes much less cotton than you'd think.
