Wicking Help

[jrgleason2003]

I am going to rewick my Kanger T3 and am unsure how many coil wraps I need to get 2.5ohms.

I have 34gauge Kanthal and 3mm silca wick. Is there a math formula or something to calculate this? Thanks a ton!

Welcome , but hopefully , you have a multi-meter . With one of those ( cheap everywhere ) you can test the amount of resistance to a particular lenght of your heating wire . Take into consideration , that you will be trimming of the wire . But I would say to start with maybe 5 wraps , and check the ohms . Go up or down from there to get what you want . Good Luck

Thanks Renzuli, I have a resistance meter right on my battery which is pretty convenient
