ah cool thanks...looks a lot like that orchid build deck...minus channels obviously.

Keep in mind Pop, building a microcoil with 32 ga is difficult. It's too thin for making microcoils...at least for many of us. Try to wrap them as close as possible. When you go to the final squeeze after you heat them up is when they like to cave in on you. Be gentle.
I am glad to see you post that...I am thinking the 30g would be better and even those can cave if squeezed too hard.
Thanks for the info, 12 wraps are not entirely new as I have done that to push the ohms up for my VV Grands. I'll go with the 30g at first and see how that works out...
Oh, and the video T mentioned- the reviewer made a 'casual' comment that this rba is good with restricted airflow (closed) for "Flavor Chaser" as he put it. That would be me !

I am interested in how it turns out! Post a pic when you have it all done so we can see!
I wrap 26, 28, and 30 micros and the 30's are definitely doable. You're right, you can cream those too if you're feeling a bit on the chippy side. But they're OK. I think I would opt for a wider ID using 30 than using 32 for micros. Just me.
So, what do you think?...if Papa wraps that 29g on a 7/64 (3mm) he can do 12 wraps...and have a better time wicking....and get to 1.5
When you're talking dual coil at 1.5 ohms, that's a whole lot of wire to heat up. You're gonna have to sit on that fire button a good long time for that to heat up unless you throw a whole lot of power on it. How many watts do you most of you REO nuts get on a fresh battery?

I usually use a 3/32 drill bit so that's what I calculated to 12 wraps....
and, 100' roll of 30g ordered. Next week should be fun trying new stuff !

I always use the recommended AW IMR 3.7V 1600mAh batteries. At 1.5 ohms that puts me at about 9W, which is where I like my HHV Liquids
although if my batteries don't last throughout the evening (this will be an at-home device) then I could opt for the 2000mAh..

Most of those calculators are accurate...Seen some that aren't. I'm not trying to prop anyone up here. Dual coils at 1.5ohms is just not a place most people go. Dual coil is almost always for sub-ohmers and especially those who like to go below 0.5 ohms. Those kids with excess testosterone who like creating their own weather systems is where you find the .5 and below crowd.
LOL...I get you there. I am however blowing some pretty nice clouds with two different dual builds on a Provari mini...one at 1.1 and one at 1.3...I crank them up to about 3.8 to 3.9 volts. I guess with no regulation you get the straight 3.7. But neither build is anemic and I don't have to pre-fire. Both are 11 to 12 wrap 30g around 2mm.

I know a 10-wrap, 30ga, 2.0mm (5/64ths) coil gets you about 2.0 ohms. 1.0 ohms in a dual set up. That 3/32 might up you to maybe 1.2 ohms at 10 wraps and with 12 may get that 1.5 you're looking for. Again, that's a heck of a lot of metal to heat up.

You vape similar to me Pops (except you're on a mech and I like regulated vapes). But you like the cooler vape to be sure.
LMAO
I'm thinking two wicks (LAWaters says she's sending some Rayon this way) and more heating surface at a reasonable wattage could actually produce a cool, dense vapor that might bring out flavor a little more. Or at least that's what I'm shooting for....
sorry, different Lori from different thread

Yes, you can still get some healthy clouds even at 1+ ohms. Much of it depends on the atty too. I'm not a REO guy so I don't know anything about the RM's. I use a Veritas dripper (and Plume Veil) and it kicks up some clouds even at 1.5 - 2.0 ohms. Would never win a cloud contest but it isn't wimpy either. Personally, I couldn't care less what kind of cloud I make but that's just me. If I were 22 again I'd probably be in the ring with the rest of those kids trying to kick theirasses.

Me either...any testosterone I ever had was miniscule...LOL, I am female and don't even have arm hair and definately not in my 20s anymore or otherwise...LOL well let's just say I would have been one of those PITA kids...
