Been trying a bunch of builds on this atty wanted to get some more recommendations. Right now I'm running dual 26g para with 5 wraps. What else out there would chuck some clouds??

Dual parallel sleeper. . .07 ohms..


Dual parallel nanos. .12 ohms


Dual vertical stovetops .10 ohms


Dual twisted ribbon parallel. . .25 ohms


all these are 26g Nichrome or 24g Nichrome except the last one which was kanthal ribbon.
Is there a huge difference between nichrome and kanthal? Also which of those is your fave?

The last one is new for me, but I literally just changed it. Lol. I used a dual triple parallel, ohms at .06. The ones I pictured here are all good, the last one, much cooler vape. I dunno if it's just because it was .19 ohms higher resistance than I've been running? Lol!
Out of these really, the stove and the parallel sleeper are faves. The sleeper ohms at .07 and for being so low, it's a very balanced vape. Flavor isn't sacrificed as much as expected, throat hit isn't too harsh, and the clouds!! The stove is a good one for vapor and flavor, but gets hot pretty fast; at least this one did. It was actually a bit better vape when the battery hit it's drop off point.

I really just prefer Nichrome to kanthal. I'm contemplating ordering some gplat soon..

I thought about that last night. Lol! I've been clipping my leads before inserting the coils, so when I get them in, I have juuust enough play to keep them from shorting. I don't like the idea of having to snake them around so much, but it's almost a must as it is now. I just put in a dual triple para build, but looks like I'll be changing again to try this out! Oh dear, the agony of titration!!

Nice 9 me slip.. I was curious as to how that wick was snaked in there. Lol! I got those blasted tabs removed today and man, what a difference that made JUST for build ease.

so long as the wick that gos under the coil isnt twisted/trapped or to kinked it works good, also the way you start the wrap rotation helps as to wether you have a tight gap or if you go over or under the leg on the left :)
