Post pictures of your working wick and coil setup

Just decided to rebuild mine still 28 gauge kanthal. Now 9 wraps, .55 ohm

This thing heats quick and produces mad vapor.

Getting ready. Pre bend, test fire

Test fire. This is my drip tip for the atty. I counter bore the top and bottom. Helps with juice.

Loving that build on a stingray/plume veil combo!

Vaping on the same combo right now

My second working dual coil. 9 wraps 26g kanthal x2, 0.49 ohms, wicked with japanese cotton pads. See anything that could be improved?

Looks good, I'd center them and move closer to the airflow and a bit up vertically, personally

Thanks. Yea they compliment each otter really nice. Did you try the coil out?

Wish I had a chance. Had to buy the wife a new phone after work (thanks Walmart) and do vaping blog research...

Now off to bed for a nap and a 12 hr shift starting at 3 pm...[emoji33]

Just rocking a standard dual parallel 26g 5 wrap. Probably one of my nicest builds to date. She chucks and the flavor is amazing (using a Vulcan).

That looks like a lot more the 5 wraps to me

Its a dual parallel build or side-by-side two strands wrapped side by side so there is 10wraps there just 5 per coil

Is that a trident on your DNA 30?

Well, that (26650) and, if you noticed, I raised my coils way up?
That's because the airflow holes are made that high up and I had to match them with my coils.
Raising the coils that high leads to having too much length of the legs, which leads to "Hot Leg" issues and too much unused/wasted resistive wire. That's why I chose to use Non Resistive wire for those legs, plus 26 Gauge Non Resistive wire helps to support otherwise very flimsy parallel coil made out of 3 strands of 30 Gauge.

I still don't get how the R-NR-R thing works but it does and that's the point.

Look at it as if it was your iron. Would you like the hole iron to heat up, including the power cord? Or just the heating element, not the wires going to it.
