Really way too big!
I was just trying to get the resistance up to 0.2 ohms and it fit in the Patriot. The 20g is basically unusable to me as I don't vape in the 0.09 or 0.06 ohm range.

So if anyone is looking for some 20g gauge SS316L wire, Michaels is a quick and easy place to pick it up. That is the only size they carry though.
Way too big, I wanna try some, but not that size

Alright, so I was getting sick of how little time it was that I was getting from rayon and 24g, I just built with 26g and wicked with DM. As I was wicking I was getting a bit of the wire moving. Used my dental pick to readjust and ensure they were adequately spaced.

After wicking and wetting, getting the break in flavor gone, it is killing it on flavor, not much of a post draw sizzle, but still working on pulling for a second longer.

Should I order the Delasco medium rayon balls? If I will be able to taste the difference from Graham's Cellucotton Rayon, I'm more than willing. What does everyone think?
I prefer them over Sally's, it is different to work with but so much better.

I just ordered these SS coils from fasttech. I know the picture shows 5 wraps, but the steam coil calculator says they should be 7 wraps. We'll see when they arrive. [EDIT] Looking at the photos from reviewers of the product as it arrived, it appears they do come with 5 wraps. I probably didn't accurately account for the length of the legs on steam. Anyway, I figure 50 coils for $2.16 should last a couple years at least, if they're any good. Worth a try for a lazy vaper like me.

I think you will find that those are 4mm ID, I could be wrong though... ;)

I hope not. It shows:
Depth 4 mm
Height 20 mm
Width 5 mm

I'm thinking the O.D. is 4mm. If that's the case, the I.D. should be something like 3.4mm or possibly smaller if the dimensions shown are just rounded approximations. I bought some other pre-made coils from fasttech once and that seemed to be the case with those. I guess I'll find out soon enough. They'll still never fit in my Goliath even if I'm right though.
