Dual parallel vs regular dual coils

[surf472]

Title says it all, im curious; what is the advantages of running a dual parallel as to a regular dual setup? Is it lower resistance? Better clouds and flavor? ect

Also im curious, is 4 wraps of dual parallel coil the same .ohms as 4 wraps of a regular coil?

parallel coils will give you more surface area so you'll get more vapor and flavor, as to your second question, I'd suggest you try out this online coil calculator to see the results of different kinds of coils http://www.steam-engine.org/coil.asp

If you went at say 24g vs 27g in parallel, it'd be close. However say you take 26g and wrap a 6 wrap, you'll get about .5Ω. Now do a single parallel wrap with 2 strands of 26g, you're at about .25Ω. Now go back to the single wire 26g and do a dual coil, you're at .25Ω. So a dual parallel build with 26g would be ~.125Ω. Parallel computes like dual coils compute, you cut the resistance in half of what it is compared to the single option. 1 wire coil is twice the resistance of a 2 wire parallel, 1 coil build is twice the resistance as a dual coil build.
