Vape porn - coil builds

Here's a little dropshot on my fused claptons on the Velocity RDA

 
Awesome picture with that drop of juice. Well done.

Thanks man :) If you search enough #coilporn and #coilsmith etc. on Instagram, you get some ideas for cool shots :D
 
My attempt at twisted 26g in the billow. Tight fit

So...
I was bored of my alien wire and wasn't in the mood to build fancy coils.
This is a dual (non-spaced) nickel (28 awg) build
22 wraps on the drill on a 3mm screwdriver. Comes out to .13 and absoloutely love it in the amazing sapor shoutout to @Sir Vape for the awesome service.

Who says you nickel has to be spaced ;)
#pro tip: if you are doing unspaced then you have to do some dry pulsing otherwise you will just have both legs burning like hell and the middle will be Cold and then there's big problems.
#protip: always wash the nickel after dry firing, actually always wash nickel builds if you don't want that crappy taste that comes from the quenching process.
Build and enjoy

I'm in love with my Sapor, seriously awesome littler performer.

Nice clean build!

Nickel is so strange. 22 wraps around 3mm, and only .13 ohm resistance? Now imagine you wanted to replicate normal macro coils in Nickel, being 6-8 wraps of 22-24ga... Probably wouldn't even register. Just "Check atomizer" :D

If you look back in the thread you'll see that I've done a fused Clapton nickel build and a series dual twisted build and a Clapton nickel build. Not too shabby if I must say so myself but the fused Clapton reads at like 0.05 which means the battery flies away faster than you can believe :)

No doubt I would have lost count halfway through. Wow, that is well done.

I just put a dot of tippex on one side of the screwdriver. Then stick the screwdriver in the chuck and then stuck the wire in the chuck (don't need to actually get it secure just put it over the screwdriver and start spinning. Get through the first couple wraps and then start counting using the dot of tippex. And voila, 20 perfect wraps. Then just use a pair of pliers to pull off the first couple wraps. :)
Happy coiling ;)
 
I want to post a short tutorial on the nickel coil 19 wraps (pulled off one extra by mistake ) on a 3 mm screwdriver
 
Some fat Sunday wraps :D 20ga x 8, 3mm core, 0.16ohm

Hi guys was just wondering, I want to build my first claptons i currently have 24g,26g and 28g wire if i want to clapton one of these with 30g or 32g what would bring it to about 0.2 - 0.3 ohms?

Do the 32 over 24, 6 wraps around 3mm dual coils should give you 0.3ish
