perpendiculous.jpgSo basically i wrapped a micro coil with 28 gauge kanthal around about a 5/64 bit with 4 wraps. I bent the leads out so that it would face front to back instead of side to side. Then i wrapped a nano coil around a paperclip that came out to around 1 ohm im not sure how many wraps with 28 gauge and placed it vertically so that the mouth of the other coil would be center to that coil. I wicked the vertical coil and put some cotton around the outside of the other coil and stuffed it under. The build is dependent on the airflow coming straight through the horizontal coil so you have to position it directly in front of the airflow holes. Flavor is the best out of any coil ive built so far. The throat hit is about perfect for me, on the harder end but not too hard. The vapor is average not incredible clouds but they definitely are not small. Im not sure if this has been done before, but i certainly havent seen it yet. Im relatively new to building coils though. Mine came out to about 0.5- 0.53 ohms.

Great minds think alike! I did this a few months ago myself thinking it would make epic vapor, and it did once I took down the ohms! I'll post some naked and vapor pics in a sec.

~I called it THE SNIPER COIL, I like your name too though :p.

After I took the ohms down to .4

Decent vapor too, I was expecting better, but darn decent.

Im not sure what you mean by can you hit the cotton dripping?
Probably means "dripping directly onto the cotton", but that shouldn't matter much as it will soak it up pretty quickly.

So what you have is an internal wicked vertical coil behind an external wicked horizontal coil, where the air and vapor will flow through the first coil and past the second coil. Does it vape better than identical dual coils on both sides of either orientation?

That's correct. From the picture it doesn't look like the cotton is touching the deck but my eyes aren't as good as they used to be..... even with glasses.

Are you asking if it vapes than a regular dual coil? If so, yes.

They perform really well. They are called straight through coils. Try aligning the coil directly in the center of the airholes leaving an airslot behind where the poles are. This is where the other builds of mine originated from such as the cyclops, and glazed donuts. If you want to check pics its on my sig. Nice build brotha!
