Newb question regarding coils

[Meeksology]

Whats up peeps! New to the forum and vaping and had a question regarding coils. When people talking about micro, macro and such, what do they mean?

Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here!

Most likely you are hearing members talk about rebuildable coils for an atomizer.

RBA: ReBuildable Atomizer (drippers or tanks)
RDA: Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer (no tank)
RTA: Rebuildable Tank Atomizer
RTDA: Rebuildable Tank Dripping Atomizer
BF RDA: Bottom Feeding Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer

Macro, micro, nano all refer to the size (diameter) of the coil.

Nano coil - <1.4 mm in diameter
Micro coil - 1.4-1.65 mm in diameter
Standard coil - >1.65 mm in diameter

They are talking about the diameter of the coil. As in macro is larger, micro is smaller, then nano and what not.

Edit. Beat me to it.

Go to youtube, type in 'Coil Building 101: Micro Coils, Macro Coils, Nano Coils' The first video there posted by Rip Trippers would explain it all.
