Here is a thread with lots more coil builds. This was started back when rba's were becoming popular: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/446263-micro-coils-ohms-description.html
What's your preferred/best performing coil build + atty combination?

Mouth to lung kinda guy myself, and my favorite build/setup has got to be a .7-.9 ohm twisted 30ga kanthal micro coil wrapped around a 3/64 needle and wicked with cotton in a Fatty v2 running wide open on the stock air holes. Best flavor I've ever had and makes for a nice warm vape
I'm changing mine after having my VVG for under 4 hours.
2.6 ohm single coil, 32awg either 10 or 12 wraps, at max voltage. Hits like a sub-ohm dual coil. But it's actually a very high ohm single
Great vapor, excellent throat hit, and flavor not too shabby.

Dual 12 wrap nichrome .4ohm. On the cyclone AFC, Origin V2, and Zenith all bottom feeders that can run on the LP (Low Profile) REO Grand. Currently fuse modded waiting for the new sub ohm contact upgrade.
Lung hits with the air slots wide open.

I own and run the Reoville Coffee Shack! Without coffee and a Reo, nothing else matters

Sooooo true! Ha. I couldn't (wouldn't want to!!!) live without my REO and my coffee. I'd give up food if I had to choose....!
That's just an estimate, I don't keep close tabs on it. It's obvious, though, that unflavored is much kinder to coils and wicks than anything with "flavoring" in it. Not just on a REO, either. My wife still uses a tornado (ego w/tank) and finds her atomizers last significantly longer vaping unflavored, even though we both used to use "light" flavors.
Just as a comparison, vaping a lightly flavored "apple pie" ejuice, she used to get about 2 weeks from an atomizer, nowadays, they last so long she loses track of when she last changed one, just as I have.
Add to that, the cost savings are significant. I buy ejuice from Myfreedomsmokes. Just to compare, 500ml of apple pie ejuice at 18mg is $130.00. 500ml of unflavored 24mg, diluted with VG down to 20mg is $30.00, and that's counting the cost of the VG to dilute it with.
I figure I'm saving that $100 about every month and a half, so it's roughly a REO every 2 months in savings, just on the ejuice. I could probably justify a new REO every month, or month and a half, easily, if I factor in the cost savings of rebuilding my atomizers
I've pretty much settled in on .95 to 1 ohm coils. Using the Wire Gizmo and 1.5 mm mandril. 7 wraps 28 guage Kanthal spaced coils and 2mm ready-wick threaded into the coils on RM2 with 1/16" air hole. This setup is working perfect for all my juices and I don't see the need to experiment with coils or change anything for quite a while.
I can do this build with my eyes closed, well almost, consistently. Then mount it 2 to 3 mm off the deck right in front of the air hole and it vapes great. Put the same coil in my Cyclone AFC and it too is working perfectly.
Took me experimenting with different builds over a few weeks to settle here. Now I'm a happy camper.

26 gage 6 wrap stove top coil comes in at about . 8 and some change cotton cloud behind it forgot what size the air hole is on rm2 approx 3 mg as close to 100% vg as you can get woodbarrel apple cider lung hits all day

Well...this is the first time I'm seeing a coil like that. More info please!!
^^^^ This. That's EXACTLY my set-up. Exactly. And that's exactly how I make mine.
