If I’m in a hurry but want to rebuild for a mech, dual parallel 3.0mmID 24ga KA1 with 5 wraps almost always lands right at 0.15 ohms. No fuss, fires super quick.
Yep look like a cool vape reviewer and allow the high mass coil time to heat up.
Of course you waste maybe 1/3 of your ejuice.
Very inefficient.

He still around? Have not seen him for over 3 years I think.Explains why Rip Tripper was always needing MOAR JUICE!
Also can help if you keep getting popped in the mouth by little drops of what feel like superheated plasma generated in the core of the sun.

Same here, same duration of the drags, but usually my vape is slightly on the cool side of warm/neutral... only occasionally I switch to a warm/hot vape, if the juice I want to vape is the type that needs to be vaped warm/hot (e.g., Crimson: Chapter I by Illusions needs to be vaped hot).i like 2~ 3 secs drags of hot vape,
Of course there is. But as I'm typing this I'm actually vaping a .08 ohms dual coil aliens build that's 26g for the 4 cores and 36g for the alien wrap wire, all Nichrome 80, in the Asgard Mini RDA with the separately sold Ultem Set (ultem cap, ultem drip tip, and ultem beauty ring)... this is on my Vaper's Mood Tanka brass with a Samsung 30T, and, here's a pic of my build:there IS a diff in ramp up time between 36 to 40/44
The posts make a tiny bit of difference, but like I already tried to point out they're not a necessary requirement so, essentially, it's only in the mind, and, they take more effort to maintain when compared to the SS round posts. Here's an older pic of a Nichrome 80 build I did in one of my Kennedy RDAs, it's a .52 ohms build that I use on a triple battery stacked tube mech:i do sub 0.1 most of the time (.08 normally), again, pulse drags in the 2 ~ 3
the setup i describe ramps up FAST
the square posts do make a difference, i instantly notice that extra hump when i upgraded my ruby v1 from ss post to the square ones, the connection (and material) at the coils themselves is another point of voltage drop
I get that, and in fact I personally never use SS in coil building. But I haven't really found an absolute need for Nichrome 90, as Nichrome 80 has been getting the job done perfectly fine also.Nichrome 90 i mentioned because it does ramps faster than SS and (i believe i noted) I just PREFER (myself) the taste of it vs SS
My SFC build in the pic above uses 2×29N80 staggered fused with 38N80. It is most definitely a hot vape at 12.6 volts, and, the ramp up is also pretty instantaneous. Like, a little bit too instantaneous if you mean what I know...an above .1 ohm (it's about .11~.12) coil i have been using is 5wraps of 2x26N90 claptoned with 40N90. I can comfortably wrap with 44g as well but havent found a supplier of N90 at that gage (n80 i do have plenty, doesn't taste the same)
I know. If I need more power I just switch to one of my HoGs, my Stormbreaker mod, or one of my stacked tubes... I have the Rulebreaker mod still on order because I want to break me some rules.View attachment 144288
there, yeah with 4 wraps on the coils the ramp up time is fast with 36g, try that with 5
Force of habit I guess. Creating more surface area by using thinner wrap wire doesn't guarantee better flavor, as the size of juice pockets between the wires aso plays a part (i.e., due to how the boiling juice will flow in there and build up tiny pressure zones as the juice creates tiny bubbles of vapor that will expand vigorously inside these juice-filled pockets when juice also evaporates on the inside surface of these bubbles themselves, which helps to explain why these bubbles will expand, and why their individual sizes matter a lot also... bigger bubbles will stir the juice up more forcefully, thereby the evaporation process will be accelerated more until it meets the definition of 'angry' coil build, like, Valhalla Hell's Gate Edition RDA kind of angry, which I also happen to be so completely in love with right now lol).I stick with 5 or 6 wraps / n90 or ss (mostly n90) real fine wire on the outside for more area and flavor
Trust me... so is this one........6 wraps of parallels n90 26g is still quite hot / fast to heat up
hey, whatever works for ya!
I edited my previous post to correct my mistake. The build I'm using are quad core aliens 4×26N80/36N80, 3mm ID.
Say about 36g Ni80 what you want, but... to find the real truth people can navigate to 23:50 in the video linked below and watch m.terk himself explain that even out of 3mm these coils heat up surprisingly very very fast. I know he was using a dual battery regulated mod for this particular build tutorial so you could argue that this doesn't factually compare to using a single battery mech, and you would be correct, but... changing the 3×26g for the cores to 3×27g while at the same time also changing the 3mm inner diameter to 2.5mm makes it ramp up even much faster, and also it completely tames the hotness typically associated with 26g. Also note that a mech inherently preheats the coils due to how the battery voltage sag behaves so that makes coils heat up even faster still, if at least we can assume that the resistance of the build is tailored specifically in order for it to produce the optimal power output level that will allow the build to achieve the maximum performance potential that the type of strand in question factually is capable of... which is also an important part of what makes m.terk such a gargantuan expert when it comes to alien coils. So if what you say is true and 3×27N80/36N80 aliens aren't worth the time for mech use, then certainly m.terk wouldn't be selling them like hot cakes. He is.Staggered fused claptons are my fave btw (missed that pic), I use 38g for those.
i personally cant find the difference between aliens and plain old fused claptons with real fine wire, sans the time it takes to make (i did do aliens with 36g back in the day a few times, just not worth the time imo)
