I really enjoy checking the pics from this thread to get new ideas and to learn from the vets 
monday I want to try cotton again, all my past attempts failed miserably
currently using a simple figure 8 build, 30ga, 1.3ohms:

Posting here so I don't have to look at BlackChad's face every time I lurk the thread.
I guess I'll throw up a couple pics too (most are rehash/ been posted in super_X_drifter's http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/rebuildable-atomizer-systems/416271-micro-coils-increase-vapor-flavor-th.html thread)

^ That's just ba-nay-nayz. Nice work. Makes my stuff up there look like child's play. :thumbup:
If you stick with it, stay on (& read!) the forum, and rebuild on the daily; when your join date exceeds ~ 1 year you'll be there.
God knows where we'll be in 2015'
That dual coil you have pictures at the bottom on the ohm meter that says 0.24 sine the meter is reading a dual coil build at 0.24 your telling me they sine your suppose to split whatever the resistance is, then that coil is really 0.12?
Is that correct?
No sir. Each coil is .48 ohms, but when installed as dual coils, the resistance is already cut in half. If you plan on making twin coils and you only ohm out one of them, then you will end up with half of the resistance of that one coil when you are done installing both.
@4.2v it is 17.5A, 73.5w but its really closer to 3.9 under load (16.25A, 63.38w)

So your telling me all this time i have been running dual coils in my RDAs i have been reading them wrong?
For instance, If i install 2 separate coils in my RDA, Test the build on my Ohm meter after the build is finish and my Ohm meter says, 1.0 Ohms, Then the build is in fact, 1.0 Ohm? I don't need to split the reading in half? ( which would make it 0.50 Ohms ) The Ohm meter already calculates the half reading for you?
I was always under the impression that when i made dual coils ( 2 separate coils ) then whatever reading i got from my Ohm meter, I split that in half..
Wow, ok, Thanks so much for that info! I had it wrong all along.
What the ohm reader says is what it is, but don't push your batteries to the "limits". Idk about the atty ohm box's but I know that if you use a multi meter, the leads already have some resistance to them so you hold them together until you get a solid reading, then subtract that from your atty reading. My ohm box is dead on but that's because I got a defective one, took it apart, and modified it... if you look at the pic you can see where I burned it with my soldering iron. hahaha idc as long as it works good. I'm more of a "function over form" guy.
It isn't calculating anything. It is giving you the circuit resistance, which is the only thing it can do when you have dual coils mounted. There is only one positive and one negative in the circuit. Mount one coil on a dual coil atty and you measure that one coil resistance. Mount the other, and you measure the parallel resistance of both of them.
So now go build a coil and put a pic up. We're all here for the coil porn. lol
28 ga spun up to 1.6 ohms. Too many wraps so I bent it in half. Parallel coil ....

Decided to ditch the SS mesh and try Peaches and Creme Cotton Yarn for my Steam Turbine Clone build.
Little higher Ohms than what I was shooting for, but after 3 tries to get this built, Im gonna go with it for awhile
Sorry for the crappy camera, but here is closer shot of the Mini Coils:

26 gauge kanthal?
Last nights builds
24 g 8 wrap micro
Twisted 28g 8wrap micro

Nope, 28 @ 3/32" ID. I switch it up between builds like this and dual micros, IMHO vape quality is very similar at this ohm level. Micros shine for me at around 2 ohms.
This is an older one, 30 gauge @ 0.8 ohms.

Okay so I put stainless steel wick and eco wool on my ihybrid, and I get great vape lots of clouds but the flavor seems a bit muted? What can I do to fix that? Should I wrap cotten around the steal wick instead of eco?

I'll throw in my current "boring yet effective" RSST build to show off my copper washer and nylon screw plug
I know... all the kool kids have chamber reducers nowadays. I will try to make one eventually
