My first (successful) rda coil build. Pretty stoked.

So! After discarding a frustrating amount of cotton and kanthal due to impatience and lack of proper tools I have finally built my first coil.
Any input would be appreciated. I used 22ga kanthal wire it's on the sigelei S rda with the sigelei 213 box mod. It's telling me .2ohms @3.82v. My eleaf tells me otherwise not sure which is wrong. I'm vaping what I assume to a 80-20vg at about 38w, sound right?
Also for all you impatient folks out there like me Amazon has all the tools for cheap with a fast reliable delivery don't waste your materials!!

If you are enjoying the vape at that wattage, that's all that really matters :)

And congrats on getting that first build

Hey that's great! If you check the Steam Engine website at:
http://www.steam-engine.org/coil.asp,
you will find a chart which tells you what ohm reading to expect with your build. Work it backwards and it'll give you an idea which device is more accurate. More importantly, use it as a guide for your early builds so you can accurately target the ohms you want.
There are numerous tutorials for new builders & new vapers on the Steam Engine site as well as at Misthub:

Building your own coils is so much fun. I have only been at it myself for a short while and I am constantly coming up with new ideas.
