New twisted El Cabron build, .2 ohm

[DarkEgo]

Just built this one, it is 4 stands of wire total. There is two strands of 26 ga twisted together, and 1 strand of 24 ga twisted with with 28 ga. I then twisted these together. I wrapped 6 wraps around a 2mm screwdriver and it came out to .2 ohms. This build has a ton of flavor and vapor production, with very little ramp up time.

Nicely done!
How did you get your spacing so close? When I tried a Very similar build I couldn't get my coils to get closer together. I think if I had a smaller propane torch and could heat them up then squeeze them together it could have worked better. So curious how you did yours?

I actually forgot to torch this one first, I just wrapped it very tightly. I didn't pinch this one very much at all, I used the handle of the screwdriver to apply pressure to compress the coil. I have been using the coil brushing technique to remove hotshots in the coil, this is working very well!

With the wick removed you can see the twisted 26 heating up faster then the 24/28 for a staged heating style build
