For $6, you could buy a lot of Kanthal to make some parallel coils- they are very easy to make, you just wrap a standard coil but with two wires instead of one.
Good point, this completely went over my head.
Cool, just needed to check for we get a lot of clueless "Clouds Bro" flyby's.
You just need to use smaller core wires, I like Vaping around 0.2Ω, core wires I use are 28g, 29g and 30g. They fit perfectly and with them being smaller gauge they add to the responsiveness. For this reason along with a crisper/cleaner taste they are simply perfect for Mech's. Only time I use Kanthal is is my =< 25mm Series Mech's.
I can't recommend enough the Opus 3100 Charger, much better than the cheap Nitecore, eFest chargers. It also has a built in fan that helps keep things cool, major, major plus just for that factor alone.
Kanthal I use Kanthal, I don't like the taste of NiChrome.
I do have 29g ss. I may have to try that. I was debating on a build for my Wotofo Lush. That sounds like a great one actually. Thanks for the suggestion.
That's stupid low, 6 wraps of 24g core would be around 0.08Ω at over 50a.
That's about average resistance for a fair amount of people...
If you're fine pushing a 20a battery over 50a more power to you. But if you bothered read OP's post he's looking for around 0.21, not 0.08.
Great, go ahead and continue to be an ignorant fuck for recommending super sub ohm builds to a new Mech user.
Thanks, with your permission I now feel free and liberated, like a weight has been lifted off my shouders.
You blew it on being on the safe side.... as that build would be unsafe for most mods with protected curcuitry.I became a mech user only yesterday. To keep things on the safe side of the "playground", and to get a smooth flavorful vape with practically no ramp up I am vaping on a VTC5A battery and dual coil aliens that are 5 wraps each, 28 Ni80 / 38 Ni80, 2.4mm ID ohming out at something between 0.11 and 0.12 on my new Purge Mods Maelstrom brass.
I would ditch the aliens myself using a mech, and go for something simpler that still has a fair amount of surface area, but higher in resistance. I think 0.11 is too low especially if you want to keep things on the safe side of things.I became a mech user only yesterday.

Excellent april fools joke mate... it made me laugh all the way until my pants fell off.
If you are well versed in and experienced battery safety you are fine with super sub ohm on single tube mods. But this is not for the new inexperienced Mech user. No Nazi attitude, just not being an ignorant asshole.
Being ignorant is recommending super sub ohm to a new Mech user without any Caveat to the danger level. At least @anen had the common sense and fortitude to look out for their fellow Vaper to throw in a caution.
In close to a decade of vaping I've never heard of an instance where an accident happens because of low resistance, including venting, have you?
I recommend watching this
Purge Mods is from
Letting them know there are risks and they should be aware of them is not ignorant, it's called looking out for each other. Being ignorant is blindly telling the inexperienced to build super sub ohm without letting them know that there are risks. Kinda like telling people that there are no risks with having unprotected sex.Being ignorant is not telling a new mech user to do his/her homework properly and or do his/her homework properly on what exactly it is that defines the word properly. That being said, a single VTC5A battery in a mech with a reliable coil build that ohms out at 0.11 does NOT heat up the battery unless you chain vape it, and, if you chain vape on a mech with that kind of low ohm coil builds, then you shouldn't be touching a mech unless you're the one who really doesn't give a flying fuck about anything so let the battery rest after every puff giving the ions time to spread themselves out across the entire area of the parking lot... for pete's sake I'm not using a pipe bomb, it's an original brand new Purge Mods that Robert signed off on so I'm not factually planning to hit the news after a battery explosion, nor even going to cause the battery to vent on the inside of a pure piece of art like that because believe it or not I'm not a vandal.
I take it you never watched the Mooch Video where he pointed out the battery dead shorting from just sitting due to inner plating.
Well I'm not a native English speaker so maybe I should have started my 1st sentence with "Ignorance is to not tell" instead of "Ignorance is not telling". If you scroll up, you'll notice I already linked to the same video before you did, but then again IMO people should watch that video at least twice (and that also applies to not just people who own a mech).

You can try building with SS since it has lowest resistance per linear inch. Ni80 is what I prefer for tube. Parallels and fused clapton work great on tube as long as wrap is between 36-40G.
I'm looking for a good build for my Wotofo Lush. I miss using that atty
lol
Me I'm usually around 0.18 on a single battery mod. With 0.4 that would be a single coil on something like a Kayfun for me. Anything more would just be too anemic for the way I like to vape. Around 0.5-0.6 is good for a series Mod but not parallel or single tube.
