Gauging

[iVape]

Looking to build my first TC coil on a Subtank. Can anyone recommend the proper Gauge SS wire to use? Normally my build is 26awg kanthal at .6ohms at 20w.

26 Gauge SS316L will work fine.

so its really all the same? Just with a diff wire with more features? Is there a specific ohm i should be at for a rta or rda?

That's up to your preferences.

lol I dont know that much. I like my setup now but wish i can get more flavor and cloud. Not sure if i should adjust my ohms.I still ant to be in the safe zone

With the Kanger Subtank, I'd stay between 0.5 - 0.7 Ohm, but that's just me. For more flavor you could try 2-3 strands twisted wire. However, you'd need a different (higher) gauge wire.

SS has a much lower resistance than kanthal!
