I have been building almost exclusively with Kanthal. I just got some Ni-80 and I wanted to make some 3-core aliens. When I put everything in steam engine it said the coil would be .261 ohm, but when I built the coil it was less than .05 in dual coil. I thought I might have made a mistake somehow so I built another pair of coils with the same specs 3*26 ni80 with 34 ni80 wrap. Here is a screen shot of wire wiz
If anyone has any idea of what I could be doing wrong I would really appreciate the input. I have tried these coils in my Petri 24 as well as my tsunami 24 with the same resistance on both.
