Thinking about a new Reo Grand

[t9c]

good to hear, just got my cylone today - i am using 26g 7 wrap around a 2mm - loving it. My first build was a 8 wrap around 2.5mm - my smaller inner diameter build has more flavor, and its vaping the way i like.

Ha! Well I was just filling the calculator with 26g. I'm going to order some.
Results: So, I wrapped a .9 ohm coil (28g, 2mm, 5 turns), coil 100% over the hole and close as possible to the edge, filled with a little more KGD than before, and I'm getting a more flavorful vape along with a good plume. Fewer wraps makes this atty hit like "shock & awe"!

I also wrapped a 4 wrap coil that should get it down closer to .8 or less, but haven't mounted it yet. I'm going to let this one burn in a few days then try it.

Great to hear the results are postive. I like working with the 26, i dont like the teeny coils i get with 4 or 5 wraps of 28. you will have a quicker heat up with the 28 tho, so its preference in the end.

For what it's worth, I always like to end up with 6-8 wraps in my coils, no matter the target resistance, so I choose a wire to make that happen. This seems to be the sweet spot for getting enough surface contact with the wicking.

Also larger diameter coil equalls more wick and more vaper per draw. That's why I like 2.5mm coils.

30 gauge wire heats up fast so I get a nice warm vape over 28 on 2.5mm coil.

Might as well order me some 30g too then.
