Title says it all, I'm picking up an invader 2 tomorrow and I'm looking for help with some .1-.15 ohm coils, prefer a quick ramp up. And yes. I know it's low, but the amp load will be split between 2 vtc4, so about 21 amps a piece gives me plenty of headroom. That being said, looking for ideas for some low ohm builds, will most likely be done on my troll mod. I usually build with 24 kanthal and or 26 ni80 on my mech but have access to a lot of wire just want some solid base/opinions for my first build in it tomorrow night :D I tried one out today with my build from my mech, parallel 24ka/26ni80 on a 3 mm bar around .17 ohm and it kicked ass but I want to go real low an get the most from my new box. Thanks in advance folks!

fused claptons using 24 for the cores and the smallest outer wire you can. 5 wraps on a 3mm bit should ohm out to about .15ish simple and flavorfull

My normal build is dual 20 gauge kanthal, 4.5 - 6.5 wraps. 0.12 - 0.14 ohms.

I use regulated though, not a mech, so can get a few second ramp up time if they are cold depending on wattage.
But after that there is no noticeable ramp up unless I wait 30 seconds between hits.

I've got a pair of fused claptons with 26ni80 core and 30ka over it but the outer wrap is too thick takes more than I like to heat up, they're around .15 if I remember correctly, like to do it with 34 or 36

I don't think it would have the surface area to chuck? Maybe duals at like 9-10 wraps around a 2.5 pretty sure the lowest gauge ni80 at the shop I frequent is 24
