how do i coil my new trident dripper

[baggieboy999]

I'm in sunny west brom mate , my mates sorting me some out tomorrow. It's just really doing my head in really taking my time and then the ohm reading seems all over the place . Ill try again tomorrow else it's going to end up going through the window

Are Greyhaze in town(digbeth) close enough for you?....greyhaze.co.uk/

Personally I'd buy wire online, but they sell it and will probably give you a demo.

It soon gets easier bud, stick at it... main thing is to give yourself time and if your getting annoyed then leave it till next day!

There is plenty of room in the trident for coil, though I do find the screws a bit of a pain in the arse... hence me knackering a thread.

Greigster sells a coil buddy which made things lot easier for me as I'm not the most dexterous... but saying that I can just about do coils without it now.

He has a thread selling them here somewhere, think they were £6, well worth it.

Heres the page with the coil buddy...allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/31066/greigster-coil-buddy

That coil buddy is on the to get list . Finally got the single coil perfect , four complete wraps and reading 1.4 ohm and vapes perfect . Never relised the flavours would taste so clearer .

If i attempt a double coil would each coil need to be 8 wraps ? Or is there really not much point double coiling it ?

To be honest, I'm not sure...Think your calculations sound about right though.
If I were you I'd use it for a bit until you fancy having a mess about as it works for you as is anyhow.
I've literally spent hours trying to create a coil setup that I've seen on youtube only to be non fussed by the results and go back to my normal setup which works!

As I said earlier I think, be careful with the threads when tightening down wire, I knackered mine.
Still not sure if they were faulty/or weak, I cross threaded the screw or it was the ribbon wire I was trying to use getting into thread that caused it but never been the same since!

My other two drippers have no such problems with threads, but maybe because I've been more cautious with them, I've only been coiling 1 1/2 months be the way so no pro.
It is fun once you get the knack of it.

And your right about the flavours... I've still got protanks on standby but not used in I don't know how long!
