Great job Bebop. I also reluctantly took out my best build to date and put in a new one. I did it so exact that my flask did not even detect a new coil. I'm so stoked because that .13 coil I had in there lasted quite a long time and performed great. Now I can continue to enjoy. You have no idea how pleased I am right at this moment with temp control. WOOHOOO!!!

Question  I rebuilt the coil again I have 6-7 wraps on it and Im still reading 0.10 ohm  I thought more wraps the higher the ohms went

You built a pretty good one according to steam-engine.

 

28g on 3mm at 7 wraps is exactly .10 ohms

Bebop should more wraps give me a higher number? 1.0 Is what I had with 5 wraps after I got the over heating issue fixed

It takes me 9 or 10 wraps to get .13 - .15

No worries. Mine do that too.  There are subtle differences that can change the resistance ever so slightly.   And at this level your talking hundredths of an ohm - very small amount.

I hear ya.  Had one creep down to .11 and I had to think twice about puttin it up to my mouth cuz I figure it's pretty close to turning in to a pipe bomb any lower than that.  Haha :lol:

Well now Im glad this invader built like a brick chit house lol :o:o

10 full wraps.  (Maybe 11.  I sometimes do that. )

Im doing something horribly wrong  I could never get that many wraps

I don't think you are doing anything wrong.  I find it terribly difficult to build a 10 wrap  coil in the SubTank Mini.  Mine have been less wraps.  I have a hard time hitting .1 ohm.  This is why I have changed to the SauceCode.  It isn't much better, but it is better (to build on).  I wish someone would build something with a Lemo (sized) deck, better airflow, and top fill.  So far I can't find it.  I really don't want to go to the dual coils because it is twice the trouble (or at least you have to make the coils twice as big).

How big is that coil.  I can see its seven wraps but what did you use to wrap it?

 

maybe a little cotton heavy

Posted

7 wraps is not enough.  10 minimum

 

Posted

What kind of wire are you using and what gauge is it?

Posted (edited)

I I try 10 wraps  my spacing is real close and I have to bend the legs to get them too attach

that mess shows .13 at room temp
