I am having trouble searching for prebuilt coils for my billow v2.
The coils would preferably be 2mm - 2.5mm inner diameter.
1.2 - 0.8 ohm would be a good place to start.
Ordering from a supplier in Canada/US would be preferable.

I dug out some older vape gear that hasn’t been used for 5 years.
I had quit everything for a bout a year, then started smoking again.

I have an authentic billow v2 that is still working great.
The coils I built 5 years ago WORK but that’s gross/dangerous.

my eyesight/patience has diminished considerably since then.
I tried wrapping 26ga. On a 2mm kuro tool and made a right mess of it.

I ordered Clapton coils with a 3mm inner diameter and they don’t fit.

Times have changed.

Any help would be appreciated:
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
Your dilemma is a good example of how banning vaping is hurting those who want to quit cigs. Have you found a solution?
26g might not be the best gauge option to reach your target resistance. @ 2-2.5 mm ID, you'ld have to make 17-20 wraps on each coil to reach 1 ohm! And that's using Kanthal.
Do you have access to a vape shop near you? I haven't been to a brick & mortar in years, so I don't know how much help they provide anymore.
My VPro has simple coils that might be good for you:
.6 ohm,
Kanthal
ID = 2.4 mm

Edit: maybe not a viable option:(. As I look more into it, resistance on each coil is .6 ohm. That would be .3 after you add two...

Edit 2: They have other options:
