Dripbox fun

Since I switched to 24g kanthal I haven't had any problems. Looks like the Dripbox abhors stainless steel.
If you want fun with your dripbox.
The coil is from an AIO coil so the leads were a bit messed up but the vape is worth it. You do have to squonk more often. We also did a dual build but I don't have the pics. 
Just take note that a dual build should be handled with great care and caution because it comes in at 0.13 ohm
Before I forget the notch coil wants a lot of airflow or you will burn your wick

0.13 doesn't matter as it caps you at 60w.The coil is from an AIO coil so the leads were a bit messed up but the vape is worth it. You do have to squonk more often. We also did a dual build but I don't have the pics.

I am not a 100% sure about that can someone verify that as a fact?
As far as I know, the chip of the drip box will not fire any build under 0.2ohms. Despite the "possible" 60W cap, building anything below 0.2ohms will be quite dangerous. Considering a 0.2ohm build with your cells at 3.8V, you will require 19A from your cells (I = V/R). For safety purposes, follow the rules of using a mech and build according to battery spec rather than trusting a mass produced chip.
I agree with all safety comments here, but in regards to the wattage question, if you take V (3.6) sqaured divide it by the resistance of 0.2 you already get over 60 watts (64.8), so it has built in volt regulation, to produce a 60 watt cap or the regulation doesn't work properly so that would worry me if its allowing you to fire less than 0.2 ...better just to stay out of the danger zone.
Being unsure about the safety is why I only did the one coil 0.25ohms and it is a really nice vape.
Always assume that the battery is fully charged so use 4.2V as your voltage in these calculations.
Yeah you're right, thanks, that way you'll get the upper value. So goes to show that even at this devices suggested resistance you're looking at 88 watts without regulation, which isnt leaving much headroom on a typical 18650...so you're relying on the chip to do its job straight off the bat.

That was a harsh disagree rating I got
Using 24g Kanthal:
5 wraps
3mm ID
Spaced
Dual
Should be around 0.24ohm's, works very well for me.
Thanks @Cespian and @Ravynheart will try it
