I made my first dual micro coil today for my smoktech rda.

Now that's one heck of a coil job there! You did good work on that one!

Someone in the neighborhood owns this cat. He has been coming over and making himself at home.

We call him Pumpkin.

I used 32g kanthal and tried to stay above 1.5 ohms for my mvp, came out to 1.8 ohms, I had to drill a air hole in the cap because the stock one comes from under the coil and I wanted both coils to get air.

I used peaches and cream yarn for the wick, the coils got a little screwed up getting the wick in but not to bad.

I plugged the stock air hole with a toothpick and broke it off so I could get more juice in it with out so much leaking.

I should have started small with the hole and worked up, instead I started with a 3/32 hole and I bet 1/16 would have been better for me, bit I guess I will have to live with it for now.

But all in all it hits really good, LOTS of vapor, and the flavor is really good.

I know some of the elders around here use JB weld and re drill when they get a hole to largeOr you could weld it up sand and buff then redrill then you could put the hole right you need it

Leaves??????????

No, the other thing that looks like the inside of a bird?

 

[whodat2112]

I am brand new to the coil rebuilding scene. I think that more wraps would raise my ohms but I was under the assumption that the coils shouldn't touch one another and the "base" where the coils sit in is very small, so it it difficult to add more wraps.

It's just a reddish colored leaf. the pic makes it look like bird innards, but it's a leaf

This is Ginger, our kidney child.
She has kidney failure, probably won't be with us much longer.

Micro coil's are the opposite, they need to be tight together. I love the micro coil's, it's all I use now.

Some are building micro coils then standing them on end with hemp packed around them

Thank you Krusty! It's really sad but she has had a long spoiled rotten happy life!

I was wondering about that, wasn't sure if the jb would be ok or not, I guess I need to pick up some jb and see what I can do.

I haven't used hemp yet, how does it compare to cotton?
I've found cotton to be the best for wicking and holding juice.

Weimaraner ears are quite possibly the second softest things on earth.

Gutta go search for the hemp link now!

I'm confuzzled. I thought there had to be space (a micrometer or so) between each wrap of coil.
