Help ready to build FIRST ni200 coil

arrowcrest · Sep 18, 2015

Hi I got a Sigelei 75w today and want to use my Kanger sub mini tank with the RBA plus base. I bought 26 ga ni200 (the shope was out of anything smaller--wanted 28 ga). I needed to know what ohm to shoot for and what watts to set it at and Temp to start. I have made Kanthal coils for that base but I know this is a new ball game.
I have all the tools and supplies but need advice about Temp Control wrapping? I am at my computer now and hope someone see's this tonight.
Thanks Alot

I doubt this would fit but give it a try, http://www.steam-engine.org/coil.asp?mat=ni200&r=0.1&awg=26&id=3&ll=3

Maybe you can do 8 wraps instead of 11.

Is .1 what I should try for? And what temp and watts?

Yeah .1 should be good.

Temp and watts is upto you. Start low, 35J & 380F and move up. Watts only determine the ramp up time.

OK , will the Kanger sub tank and RBA base be safe at that?

I have the same setup as you but 28g nic200. .1 is what i shoot for. usually end up .14 or so. 420f 30w is usually what i vape at.

Do you know if there is a unsafe point to use the Kanger sub tank with RBA at? I didn't find anything in the instructions from Kanger and I want to stay safe.

no, but i've had mine up to 500f, 50w just to see what it would do. a little hot for me. i like it 410-420. i'm sure someone with more knowledge will comment.

With your mod in TC, your coil can be as low as 0.05 Ohm. Temp and Watt is personal preference and depending on the juice.

I do make my own juice and I make all of it at 40PG / 60VG. I do like the sweet juices though, is there a relation between VG% or sweetness to coil resistance?

I have a sweeter juice I'm running on my Sigelei 75W @ 370F 35W, with a 0.07 Ohm coil. You really have to play with mainly the temperature setting. The Wattage you need to adjust according to heat up time. So, if you increase the wattage, the coil heats up quicker. Again, you have to play around with the settings, in order to get it to your liking.
