It's been a long time since I had a unregulated mod. I got one at the beginning of this year. And it's a geek vape Athena squank mod. Right now I've been running a dual Eric Clapton stair case pre built coils. On a 3015 mah 18650 high ohem life battery. What gauge of wire and brand would give me the best cloud with food flavor and how many wraps?? I remember some of the basics.

Is this the battery you're using?

Also, do you have an ohm reader or a regulated mod that you can use to test the resistance of any coils you build? It's a must to have one or the other, because it isn't safe to put an untested and unknown coil on a mech mod like the Athena. That mod has no protections, so you have to do your due diligence on both the battery and the coil.
Mooch
Bench Test Results: Hohm Life4 22.1A 3015mAh 18650...performance drop, slightly overrated Test Report Summary: This is the latest version of the Hohm Life cell, the Hohm Life4. It was surprising...

In general, here's what I like.
Please, though, do your own research and try to stay safe. Can only offer opinion, preference, as a general "guide". Don't ask questions that seek to define "best". "Best" will always be elusive because it is subjective. What you think is best I may find worse, and so on.
- Kanthal wire at 26 awg.
- Coils wound up 5 to 7 wraps around a 3 mm mandrel.
- This gives me a decent range for a single coil at 0.30 to 0.50Ω, and that in general ought to keep you relatively safe on a single cell 20 amp+ 18650 battery mod.
- It produces good vapor, flavor I find. You may not get Cloudz Brah style clouds each time, you do get at least modest clouds. Not a cloud or flavor chaser, I vape to get the nicotine mainly.
