Question

[luke galket]

I just purchase a eleaf istick 100w and a indulgence x v4 rda with some 26 gauge wire and some cotton. What ohm coil should i build to vape at 100w without a burnt taste? And how much wire should i use to build the coil?

I am not trying to pick on your wording but I would like to start off by saying that just because your mod can top out at 100 watts does not mean you must use all of them (unless in temperature control mode)

I would suggest this online tool: Coil wrapping | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators

On the left side set the type of wire, kanthal is the default but many options here.
Set the gage of your wire to 26 if that is what you have available.
Select single, dual coil, etc in the Setup
Select the target resistance you want ( sorry I can't tell you the one you like)
Set the inner coil diameter based on what you using to wrap the wire around while building it.
It will tell you how many wraps you need for the coil you have told it you want to build.

Optionally watch this video here (or search for other build videos) where he is using 26 gage wire to do 4 wraps resulting on a .3 ohm build:

Good luck and happy vaping!

With 100 watts you want to build big ideally with 28G wire. Aim for some thing around 1 ohm, lots of surface area and fast ramp up. Start with 25 watts and increase it until you find your sweet spot.

You can try this with your 26G

Agreed. Try to get a satisfying vape and don't worry about firing the mod at full capacity.

Highest I have ever gone was 40 watts on the billow V2 Nano. Most of the time I vape under 20 watts.

+1 I tend to vape under 40 watts all the time, and often under 20. Even when I feel like clouds, I rarely get above 70.
