Ill have to dust off my Nemi decoy

its a mini nemi or have i just got huge hands 
but oval coils are good in the mini fogger and if you use twisted it makes it so much easier

Yep i thought you had normal size hands decoy

I only have spheroids to use on my mini Nemi.

How did you make oval coils, just squash a round one?

whish it was that easy
wrapped it round the bit of metal from a pen top then flamed it a few times till it kept its shape(might be some swearing involved)
but when your limited to the width as much as you are in the mini fogger you try daft things but wow do it blow clouds now(for its size)

Gone back to normal Kanthal on my mech. Heat up times a killer with dual coils:(

They work great single and dual on a regulated mod...

I noticed that jackcustard I made a 0.5 ohm regular contact dual coil with 0.4mm kanthal that seems popular and it took till tomorrow to heat up. Maybe I've been spoilt by the ramp up you get with nickel on a DNA40 device.

Since going over to the DNA40 I always keep an eye on the heat flux when making coils but not the heat capacity because the quick ramp up sort of negates that. Made another 0.5 ohm coil with twisted 0.25mm kanthal and it's far quicker. looking at he heat capacity the 0.4mm is 35.5  and the 0.25mm twisted is 21.7  I'll keep an aye on that in future and keep it as low as possible.
