Parallel build

[spitzer26]

So i build my first parallel coil. I did a dual 26g kanthal with 6 wraps reading at .22 ohms on a turbo v1. And im using evic vtc mini with batteries of samsung 25r and a awt red. My problem is one of the legs of the coil arent touching each other. They arent that much apart but you'll notice it once you see it. I pulse them and they glow at the same time. I vape it and the flavor and vapor is great . But should i worry about that ? Its my first parallel so i just want an opinion on that .. and how high should i vape on it ? Right now i vape it at 45 watts on a .22ohm build.

Thanks ...

You got me beat.

I have done normal and chimney,
and twisted coils but never got a parallel from wrapping to vaping. something always goes wrong. Congrats.

You might try twisting the ends a couple of times before you set the coil. As long as you're not getting hot spots, you should be pretty good

Yeah, if the coils are heating evenly, with no hot or cold spots, you're OK. But next time you build one, definitely twist the legs together. This not only obviates your current worry, it's a lot easier to stick the coil legs in the post like that.
