First twisted build

[blakemorder]

So I'm kind of scared to vape it, its only my second build ever, I hand twisted some 26 gauge and threw it in my subtank mini rba, .29 ohm 4 wraps 2mm I'd. Whats everyone think,is it safe being so loose? I wasn't even going to try it but I figured what the hell.

Pretty nice for your first twisted coil.
Keep up the good work and vape on!

Thanks, I still get a little nervous when first firing/vaping a build, but I have to say I love the twisted wire.

yeah, I love twisted coils as well
do you have an ohm meter?
If you don't get you one because it will help you keep from getting "nervous".

Not yet, ive been using steam engine and my mods to measure. I should pick one up soon, I'll admit it was a bit of an afterthought

I twisted up some 28 for the first time this weekend. I was running out of 26.

Very good substitute.

I like to twist up 3 individual strands of 28 gauge and then I place them together in the chuck and then I twist the opposite direction of the original twist. I call it the Trinity Twist.
This coil is awesome for flavor and vapor production.

Got a pic or anything so I can visualize this? I just built some 26 guage duals for my rda and am loving it except my wattage limit is kind of low so it vapes pretty cool (60w). I might have to get some 28 gauge and try that.

I don't right at the moment, I will twist a new one up when I get home from work.

If you like twisted wire, look for "Twisted Messes" on YouTube.
