parallel coils

[cnguyen]

if dual coils half the life of a batterey and quad coils lower it even more, do parallel coils half the life because its two separate wires?

It all really depends on the resistance once the coil is complete. Resistance is the determining factor. That, and how much power you are pumping through said coils. Hope this helped!

dual parallel 28g 8wrap at about 3.5ohms and im using samsung 25r and the battery dies really fast

at 3.5 Ohms? or 0.35 ohms? And what is "Fast"? Depends on how much and how often you vape...

How many watts are you using(assuming it's VV/VW)? If it's a mech mod, you may only get 10-20 good vapes at max battery, then it'll slowly decline until your battery is pushing nothing out. Also, do you mean 8 wraps per piece of kanthal(16 wraps total)? or 8 wraps total (4 per piece)? 3.5 ohms seems awfully high for a parallel, especially a dual (sided?) parallel. Depending on the wraps I use, I usually get about .4-.7 ohms on my dual parallel builds (using 26 or 24g kanthal)

im using a mechmod, and yes 16wraps total per coil its at 3.4ohms

That's probably why your battery life isn't spectacular. I can't imagine 3.4 ohms on a mech mod lasting all too long(battery-wise). There may be voltage drop between the connections of your 510 pin on the atty and the receiver on your mod, too. All in all, if you're wanting better battery life, switch to VV/VW. I know the KBox by kangertech is ridiculously cheap for a 40w box mod, and from my experience, has pretty good battery life

ops 0.35ohms i dont vape very often

0.35* ops. I had a panasonic 18650b at 0.8ohms and that batterey seemed like it lasted forever
