There's no standard! It really depends on the space you have on the deck, what ID (Inner Diameter) you can use. The larger the ID, the less likely you will have wicking problems (dry hits). In order to figure out a good coil build, utilize http://www.steam-engine.org/coil.asp? as a guideline.

1.5-1.6 with 28awg... I'll assume you are using a regulated mod. Cause that coil would be too cold for unregulated, 8-9watts. I would go with 2.5mm about 8 wraps. feeding it 15-20 watts. IF I get dry hits I'd go up to 3mm next time and drop a loop.

Yeah I vape MTL with a istick 60w at usually 8.5w to 15w max.
