Post your builds

[Vape_geek]

Figure we should start a thread sharing our builds. I always like seeing new builds and getting inspiration for new ideas.

-post a photo of the build
-what wire is used
-what size are the wraps
-final ohm readings

My all day everyday setup. Dual 24g 5/6 wrap around a 3mm screwdriver metering at 0.27 ohm

 

[MushroomCloud]

awesome close up looks good

 

[Vape_geek]

Okay here is one more to get the ball rolling

2 strands of 28g twisted and than twisted with a second 2 strand twisted 28g around a 3mm screw driver, meters out at 0.37 ohm single coil

 

[KuntryBarbie]

[JazzyJag70]

Well tried to post my pic was a bit too big gonna have to shrink it at my comp. nut i am running a 24 guage 5 wrap sleeper build at 0.3. Works well for me made one the other day at 0.1 and decided to rewrap it.

 

[DragonVapors]

Twisted and flattened 24 guage dual coil.

 

[Matt Leahey]

Not as sexy of a picture as the above posts but a ripper in every way! 24g dual parallel 5 wraps ohms out to .12! I think it's time to bust out the Nikon and get some quality porn shots

 

[Vape_geek]

One of my all time favorite builds, but a total pain to build. Stacked 26g quad coils at 0.18 ohm.

 

[BigRob]

20g wire one continuous strand - the negs are post hole the pos is top post. meters at .12
this one is in a 28mm tobh

 

[Bahas]

Sorry it's blurry. But it works well at .3ohms sleeper build. 5 wraps 24 gauge.

 

[Vape_geek]

One more build a single 20g 5/6 wrap. Build produced large amount of vapor but was a little too hot for my liking

 

[derichio02]

I just started building a couple of weeks ago but i guess ill post to see how im starting out. Dual Parallel 26ga 4 wraps 3mm metered at .16

Very clean

OK be gentle this was my first parallel coil attempt. It's dual parallel 28g and ribbon I believe it came in around .4 or .5 this one was a few builds ago so can't quite rember. But I'll toss up some more as soon as I snap some more pics

 

[derichio02]

To everyone who says this is their first build or just starting post em up anyway. We build and build and build to get better. Some people on here may have tips and tricks that can make it easier for us all. Dont be shy its the interwebs!

Totally agree I wish i has some photos of my first builds, they were scary looking.

 

[M5amhan]

nothing fancy but it is my first 24g build.. had to use higher ohms for my hana, please excuse the fresh juice lol

 

[KuntryBarbie]

Ok here it is!! My first build...... I know pic is a lil blurry but it what ya get

 

[Kemosabe]

26g kanthal quad coil 3/32 ID. 0.2 ohm. i think its a 10/11 wrap but i forget.

 

[Dhim]

Build I'm vaping on now. Really miscalculated. Was shooting for .5Ω and ended up with .2Ω, oops. Today's vape at work is a little hotter than normal. This is why you don't build a coil at 3am while distracted.

 

[Vape_geek]

4 strand 24g 4 wrap 0.2 ohm

 

[jbennett925]

these are beautiful coils i see i need to upload some pics (and get a better quality camera) but i will try to get some non blurry shots soon

 

[Jcc2k]

Twisted 28g 4/5 wrap around a 2.5mm screwdriver. 0.41 ohm

 

[CaFF]

A current dripper build...

It is 9-wraps of 28 gauge Kanthal around a 3mm screwdriver for a vertical coil at 1.8 Ohms.

Yes, that is "high" ohms for most folks nowadays, but it's flexible.

1. It's low enough for a mech with a warm-up pulse.
2. It will work on any mod I own, including the SVD at 10 watts.
3. I don't have to use my good 30A batts for it, saving them for the low-ohm stuff.
4. I can always add another coil and make it a 0.9 DC beasty if I wish.

 

[WilECyOT]

My 2nd Stillare build at 0.5 ohms. The 1st one looked like franken-vape. I'm proud of this one. Lots of cotton...obviously.

1 solid strand of twisted 28g. reading 1.5 oms . 3/4 wrap on 5/64th drill bit. kracken tank. bout to wick and try this sucker out!

 

[PadreQ]

Tri-Twisted 33ga Kanthal.

 

[CaFF]

Here is my first attempt at home-made Flat Bastard wire. (twisted 33 wrapped with 0.8 ribbon)

Built a dual 6-wraps on a 1.8mm screwdriver, 1 Ohm DC build for my Fogger v4. It worked nice and had great flavor, but ran a bit too warm for my taste. I kept the build for later usage in a RDA or such.

(click thumbs for full-size)


If you've used the TINY screws on the new Fogger v4, you know how much of a PITA that was to get on there.

 

[Vape_geek]

Some twisted 28g, came out to 0.36 ohm great setup got the TOBH with lots of lavor

 

[Bahas]

4 wrap 24 gauge .3ohm sleeper buil on my tobh clone.

 

[VaporJoe]

lol nice build bro

 

[Bahas]

Thanks still learning. What am I talking about I am always learning a new trick or tip always. So like Chess learning to play is easy being a Grandmaster takes longer.

 

[Dusther]

my first quad on a Cats

 

[Bahas]

Nice. How's the Cats working for you? I want to get one one of these days.

 

[OneTwisted6]

That's so bad ass! Built a quad on my Trident and it was so hot!

 

[OneTwisted6]

Wrapped 30g around 30g. .4 ohms. Couldn't get a full draw before running out of juice and tasting cotton.

 

[Bahas]

Try the dragon wrapping method? That may calm it down some so you can actually enjoy the vape.

Yeah, saw that wicking method shortly after the build. Much better, but gonna stick with micro coils for the most part.

 

[Dusther]

I love it. Haven't used my Russian since I picked it up.

 

[OneTwisted6]

The "Cats" is a dripper and the Russian is an rba aren't they?

 

[Bahas]

Yes

 

[mike_getz]
