Im having trouble getting my ohms lower with my Pheonix dripper. Im using 30 gauge kanthal. Two wraps and im only getting .8 ohms. Help please

Which version of the Phoenix? Got a link? What are you using for wick? And what on EARTH are you putting it on that you want to go LOWER than .8 ohms?!? ;)

Ms
Its one from litecigusa. Im using a drawtube from discountvaper. 2mm airhole. Ive had some guidance from my lil bro that is also a member here. Ive done a triple coil with it but it took a couple of seconds to get going but once it did it was blazing. ive tried to do a dual coil on my Igo-L. im using ceramic wick with 30 gauge two wraps and its down to .9ohms. Ive seen vids where ppl have gotten em down to 2.5ohms.

Lower gauge kanthal (28 gauge) - twist it if you need to. .25ohms is some pretty lofty territory - hope you like replacing batteries as that is only .25ohms away from a dead short (it's a battery killer). Considering that most of the 3.7volt batteries are around or slightly above 4 volts when freshly charged - that's 64watts at 4 volts. Do you really need 64 watts? Most folks are getting a real nice vape between 7 and maybe 12 watts. Sure - some go for the megawatt stuff, but I doubt that those are all day vapes.

Do as you will and enjoy - but .8 ohms at 4 volts is already 20 watts.
