Okay!awsome i only build a dual coil deck so thats helpful bigtime now i get that so if its up by 10 or lower by 10 is that safe or not or is that okay too be that way but not too high and not too low i of course want it perfected which im guessing it should always be and if not throw them away?

that's all Kenhtal wire. so no temp control.
Good pic SirRichardRear --- i was just getting ready to take some for the OP
thanks!
But what is the ohm reading supposed to be on for diffrent coils is it supposed to be what it says on the packaging like this here or around that and if its not throw it out?

Sent from my SM-G928T using Tapatalk
a single coil should be close to the ohms on the package. for a dual coil it should be close to half what the package says
Sorry but ive watched youtube vids and dont understand it since im shit at math and was told diffrent by my vape store:/

thats in watt mode. the temp there isn't adjustable. it's the temp of the board. for all intents and purpose you can ignore that

you can't use temp mode with those coils. you need to get some SS wire to use temp mode

Demon Killer 8 in 1 Coil Pack -- Kanthal Wire Coils (Not TC capable wire)
When using dual coil decks, always use identical coils. Also remember that your total resistance will be divided by two (2).
(ie. .85 ohm coil, two coils, will show a ohm resistance of .424 ohms approx)

0.85 Ohm Clapton Coil (0.424ohm approx with dual coils)
- Single Coil start at 15-20w and work up
- Dual Coils start at 30-40w and work up

0.50 Ohm Hive Coil (0.25 ohm approx with dual coils)
- Single Coil start at 25-30w and work up.
- Dual Coils start at 30-40w and work up

0.45 Ohm Fused Clapton, Alien Clapton, Mixed Twisted (0.224 ohm approx with dual coils)
- Single Coil start at 30-40w and work up
- Dual Coils start at 50-60w and work up

0.36 Ohm Quad Coil, Tiger Coil, Flat Twisted Coil (0.18 oh approx with dual coils)
- Single Coil start at 40-50w and work up
- Dual Coils start at 60-70w and work up

==================
All of the above wattage settings are based on my personal experience with my preferred heat tolerances and are not based on any facts outside of what I like to start with.

it doesn't work in that mode because the wire isn't compatible. just use watt mode only.
if the mod gives you an error like ohms too low it means you have a short on your build.

the short is likely from a coil touching the metal cap of the RDA when you put it on

My wifes faster i have terrettes and it effects my hands not verbal really haha so she usually does it and good so when she tried it for the first time on the cheetah it like sprayed sparks on one side last night and the coil broke from the first loop/ring within a second and then held it there. We took it off replaced both and did it again and it lit up red on both sides perfectly as usual. Maybe its just harder to tighten which we noticed on the cheetah the screws tighten but never like my other ones like twisted messes so ull have like one a little higher then the other on the cheetah for some reasonbut u cant tighten it further. I think it shorted though.

yes that means that your coil is touching metal inside the tank. they need to be res positioned

Hate to say it ... this has nothing to do with the cheetah. This has everything to do with HOW it was being done. Nothing against you guys, but you simply didn't have the proper training or understanding of what you were doing. This is where the vape shops FAIL every single time.

I, and i'm sure many others here, will have no problems helping you with learning.

To expand on this --- I personally wouldn't have any problem with even doing a video call with you to help walk you through it ... if it means you will stop trying to blow yourself up, then I will help you any way possible.

Ive watched people make them before they just didnt explain the ohms and other stuff. Like i said this was the first time this ever happend and weve made over 100 of these things within just this year with no problems at all. We are going to look more into it and will let you know if we want to do it. Now i know what the ohms are and what they are supposed to be it helps a lot and about the wire. Thanks for your help.
