How does one figure out the resistance for Fuzed clapton wire in 316L SS? I like to run my tanks/rdta at around .4-.5 at45-50 watts using dual 26g 316 at 3mm. Looking for some flavor chasing with the claptons. Anyone have a chart to get me in the ball park?
Thanks
Cut the resistance in half again, cause you're doubling the wires
Fused claptons with 2 26 gauge cores, it's like two coils in one
You aren't gonna get 0.4 ohms with 4 strands of 26 gauge 316 SS

That'll work on a regulated mod. If you can fit 3.5mm coils in there, even better - try for 6 wraps to keep ohms ohms above 0.1, most mods dont fire below that (yours might though, what mod you use?)
Otherwise you could do a single coil with those fused claptons, if you can do single coils in your tank.
AFAIK, with claptons, you can use just the core-wire size. So, dual-26 would be as if PARALLEL.
Wire Wiz suggests 12 loops @3mm to hit 0.434Ω - duals of those would be 0.217Ω
12 loops with two strands of 26 awg, that's 24 loops wide plus the clapton wrap, that ain't gonna fit in anything!
