Okay, Craig . . . Obviously, I'm messing with you.

What's wrong with this picture?

The good news is that my Odin should be here tomorrow.

Have a great weekend, Craig.

A beautiful REO. This is next on my hit parade. :) A Odin will sit on mine as well.

Still have something wrong with that REO

You really should fill that bottle with juice....The vape is not very good on just a wick.....just sayin':evil:

They really are very nice looking

Thank you. I'm really pleased with them.

Yes, you are absolutely correct. The Black Wrinkle is chucking Bryce's Butterscoth Creme Pudding. The SL TRA is chucking a 20/80 unflavored base with a tad of blueberry flavoring. :D

I'm sure there's somebody around here that can help me get a big vapor vape with my Odin. At the present, I've got a single coil on it at 1.7 Ohms, one air hole covered and the other half-open and adjacent to the coil. It's way too airy for me and the vapor is just so-so using 70/30 PG/VG flavored juice. Would it be possible to build a dual-coil that'll give me lots of vapor but not be below .7 Ohms and not hot?

I've got both a 16G and 18G luer needle, all three rods that come in that little bitty coil jig, a q-tip, and a large paper-clip or safety pin that I could wrap the coils with. I like to use 28G Kanthal but also have some 30G. I use KGD but have had a little strip of ReadyXWick for a week that I've been too afraid to try to use. With all those options, can somebody tell me how to build a good vapor-output dual coil that's not too hot and not below .7 ohms?

I will just wait until I can hopefully get some happy suggestions. Please do not expect me to respond any time too close to the professional performance of kickoffs, interceptions or touchdowns. :)

It's gonna be hard to get a lot of vapor from 70% pg. The ratio should be reversed :)

Additionally, 2 coils will up vapor production.

I'd suggest two 6 wrap 30 ga around something 1/16" or thereabouts - 16 ga needle, the second smallest rod from the artistic wire coil gizmo.

As you reduce the resistance, open up the air and use a higher VG mix vapor will increase and heat will be mitigated my the additional air, but the thicker vapor will make it less airy. Lung hitting will be the only option at that point though.

Don't expect an update until the Cowboys have the Rams tied up and in the trailer headed home.....:D

I just put some numbers in the coil toy link. Coil Toy - Online calculator for e-cigarette resistance coil building
With a 16ga needle (1.65mm) and 28ga wire you will need coils that are ~13wraps to get to a 1.4ohm per coil. This will net .7ohm
With a 16ga needle (1.65mm) and 30ga wire you will need coils that are ~8wraps to get to a 1.4ohm per coil. This will also net .7ohm

I prefer 28ga myself because it is easier to work with. For 30ga and 32g a wire I usually torch it first. This is just my preference and you may not need to do it.

super - good points I'll have to remember. Can't increase VG much, doc says it's like coating my lungs with butter. Thanks for your input! :)

Rattler - I'll try that 8 wrap during the next commercial. WISH I could watch Cowboys, not televised in Denver today, gosh-durnit anyhow! :)

If you are a cowboy fan you might be better off watching another game.

Just rebuilt my Odin w/30 g A1. Still having issues building dual coil cuz I'm an idiot but did try SuperX's tips and other things I read on here. Although my ohms were higher than I wanted, it's vaping like a beast.

I'm not sure which tip helped but def not as airy as the first time and warmer?!?!? Honestly have no idea how since I got it at .8Ω versus the .6 I was shooting for.

(Ya, I was that far off :facepalm:)

Yeah Dallas! :) (Rattler...you must keep the faith!) lol

Well, wound up with 1.0 ohms. Way too airy and leaking like a sieve so I shut off the air holes by about 90% and now its vaping just like my RM2 but still airyer. Will fewer wraps than 8 on my 28G give me lower ohms?

Angi....good to see you struggling too (misery loves company) :)

Yes... less wraps will give you a lower ohm coil
