Stacked ribbon dimensions are different than round wire. Like if you're stacking 8x.4 it's as if you're fusing 2x26g at .405mm each. About 5' gets around 4 to hopefully 5 wraps on a 3mm

And as for my working wire set up in my Kennedy25:

Missed a few staggers but I don't care, I'm just glad the stainless colored nicely.

You gotta love that stuff for its colour! :)

They missed wraps are only adding to the flavour! less wraps the better on the staples if you ask me plus you can turn the power down a little :headbang:

Finished this concept today. For the lack of better name I'm calling it either Alien 3 or the Trinity Coil lol

So, sigh, gonna be a long post lol, sorry ahead for that guys but this is a mouthful, both specs wise and flavor smd vapor wise lol

So, to the point, this a 3x26/30-36 stitched alien parallel with 1x26/30 vertical hollow decored alien, double helixed with 30.

I originally wanted to base this all around 36 but it's virtually impossible to decore 28/36 alien. After several days battling this, and after a lot of alien wire wasted, many pokes, cuts, many many wire breaks, aggravation, patience used, and everything else that comes with inventing new coil concepts, I finally accepted my defeat and settle on the only wires that wouldn't break when pulled apart, 30 gauge. The most I was able to get with 36 was 2 inches of decored aliens. I learned a lot and that's important as we're all always learning.

The coil is massive. It took a ton, and I mean a TON of adjusting, had to completely take out one of the posts on my 24 goon cause the helix wires were playing goofy with me. Finally got it where I wanted it. It barely clears the deck. Vapes great. Flavor is solid. And different. Great but brings out different notes in flavor. Vapor is insanely dense. I won't post a selfie cause no one will even see me lol

Here's some pics.

Prior to double helixing and prior to mounting.

One of my buddies asked me if these are Mohawks, I'm like nope, hollow aliens, he's like "dope as f... K" lololol

The stitches are really showing in this shot. Flew through the stitched alien part, came out with enough wire for 2 coils, didn't even need that much but whatevs lol

After more adjusting I finally got it perfect.
