Prebuilt coil options

Topside isn't even close to the pulse v2.
It's big it's heavy and it leaks from the top and runs down the outside of the bottle.
Google it.
It's a major problem.

I dont use TC. I run 60-80W.

I only have that issue if I fill the bottle to the absolute top. Leave some headspace and it's fine. It is a heavy pig though, no doubt. Thinking about cross drilling one...

If that's an acceptable range, and your build supports that with direct voltage, a mech or mosfet would be ideal for durability. A pulse or an aegis would be great choices too.

I want to try but I cant find those .2ohm flat coils in stock.

Us squonkers need to stick together.

I never got into squonking (and regret that) HSD will give you good advice about that

@Esti there are lots of great options in exotic wires. If I could find something like geekvape framed staple twisted in SS316, I'd be all over it, but since you don't use TC, the ni80 would work well for you...


Much cheaper by the roll rather than prewound though.

I have an Iphone, and since apple banned coil calculators I have a hard time determining wrap count and wattage. With premades is all there already

The spools come marked in ohms per foot, so cutting to desired resistance is pretty easy. Have you tried steam engine coil calculator or wire wizard? They have a great web interface...

All my spool says is Kanthal A1, 10ft. 24GA.

I've noticed some do, some don't. My geekvape spools don't, my Vandy vape do.

The final resistance doesn't matter as much unless you're using a mech though, as the power will be set by the mod, not the coil circuit.

10.72 wraps with this wire to hit .4ohms.

I get 0.36ohm with 6.5 wraps on a 2.5mm ID. Vapes really well at 50w

 

[Esti]

Im calculating with this 24awg i have. Around a 30mm form, 5 wraps will be at .2ohms up to 80wats.

That wattage specified there may not be an accurate representation of how the coil will vape, but is just the wattage that would be achieved at full battery on a mech.

 

[Esti]

Im not going to use it at 80w anyway. Probably 65-70w

 

[Esti]

Having trouble understanding this calculator. I built a coil using that 24awg wire. I used a 40mm form, and 5 wraps. The coil reads .61 ohms. According to the calculator it should take 17 wraps.

For non Clapton wire, you should use the simple coil builder, not wire wizard.

According to that calculator a .6 should be used at 27wats? Thats really low
