Fused claptons vs parallels
- Thread starter Jackvape
- Start date
Parallels are great because they vape very well and they're very very easy to make. As far as just fused claptons it all depends on how you build them. I feel like everyone's different and everyone likes different things. That's why although I tried to answer your question to the best of my ability, imo there's really no right answer when it comes to witch coil is better for who.

I buy premade fused clapton wire. Im not wasting my time trying to make them. Id screw it up.
You can still buy almost any claptons you want. Check out lightning vapes. There's also tons of people on here that make coils, My self included. How long have you guys been vaping?

IMO premade wire is only meh and making fused clapton wire is actually pretty simple. Most premade Clapton wire use 30g or 32g wrapping wire which IMO sucks balls. The fattest wrapping wire I'll use is 36g, my go to is 38g - 40g. Why do I take the time to make them? For me provides a much better Vape and deeper flavor.
My wife 7 years. Me a year and a half. I can make parallels but they dont seem to out perform the claptons I buy so we stuck with the claptons.
My premaids use 38 gauge outter. Thats why I use them. I dont like 32 gauge outter wire either or Id stick to using parallels.
I seem to get more flavor from the Parallels but thats just me.
I seem to get more flavor from parallels but I still have trouble making them. I just satarted learning last week. I wont even atempt a clapton.
Just personal preference. I don't really care for premade coils. The last pair I bought were a real disappointment. I haven't started making my own Claptons yet so I buy rolls of wire from AVS and Lightning Vapes. I don't see myself ever using kanthal again. I'm really close to not using Ni80 after having used stainless. I love stainless. My perfect build is a .1 dual coil on a single tube whereas series has a little more room. Maybe a .25 to a .35-ish .4 at the most so far or the ramp dwindles too much.
Do u know how to make parallels.
Yeah but I like fused claptons better. More flavor better vapor production and handles the heat better imo.
Im at a standstill. I love fused claptons. They vape cooler. But sometimes I like the flavor better from parallels. I bet if u gave me an rda and didnt tell me which one was in it I cudnt tell u the difference.

Wire materials are going to play a lot into the satisfaction of your parallel build in what they offer and how they perform.
I use them frequently for cloud chasing. Generally NI80 and sometimes NI80 with a smaller gauge KA1 wrap to retard the ramp and up the ohms a bit. For me SS in 24+ gauges is kind of a pain in the ass wrapping parallels.

It takes time. I vape parallel coils for a couple years. Twisted wire spits too much for me. But parallel is perfect

I might not be able to either at any given time but when I have them side by side with the same ohms I can tell really well.
I use 8 wraps of parallel28 gauge kanthal. Heats up instantly with thin gauge wire. Plenty of vapor. And ohms out at almost.5. Saves on battery.
I build low. Now staged heating coils are nice. I like building those.

Thats why you are having trouble twisting them. 28g is floppy and doesn't hold its form as well. You might benefit from trying some larger gauge wires and mixing materials. You will find a sweet spot that scratches your itch. 24g and 26g are very good choices for parallel wraps if you can find your happy ohms. They also hold their form better.
Not at all, with spinners it's so easy making fused Claptons. Single clapton the wrapping wire slips off and is a major bitch when making coils
A lot of people build low. Whats the advantage. I always ohm high. Is flavor better low.
Using a mechanical mod lower build is warmer and more wattage to heat the coil. Higher ohm is a cooler vape

I believe that it's a personal preference thing. And I also believe that I need to clarify that I will NEVER suggest that someone builds as low as I do. To me that would be irresponsible. It's just a place in my vaping experience that I progressed to. Battery safety is first to me. I know when to set my mechs down and vape a different mech. That's one reason I have 4 tubes and I'll get more. But I have a chronic case of shinyitus so ...

So it doesnt matter on a regulated mod cause u control the wattage right?

It matters. Just in a different fashion. You should be using watts law with a regulated mod.
. Oops, not my question to answer, sorry
Didnt know there was such a thing.
I run 100 watts and ohm out at almost .5
Really not. Just me.

.5 ohms at 100w sounds like a donkey punch on round wire coils. That would be somewhere in the 25-30w range for me. You should consider some experimentation with different gauges and wire materials, Jack. I do believe there is a better vape waiting for you.
Those are nice to. 24/26 staged. Nice vape. I used 26/28k for a long time as well. Then I joined the builders thread and got tired of my coils not looking like everyone else's so I started building. Lol

I've gone as high as 24 and it does good. 26 is nice. Heats quicker. Really depends on the clapton volume/size.
Yup those are the ones
and a fused clapton is a parallel (usually more then 2)wrapped with a smaller gauge wire. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
yea the wire I'm using is tri core 28ga/36ga put in a kylin mini came out to .18 ohms in parallelYup those are the onesand a fused clapton is a parallel (usually more then 2)wrapped with a smaller gauge wire.
