Hi , am I right in thinking the more wraps you use the higher the Oms will be .?
Thankyou.

yes, but within reason... it may be more practical to use a thicker wire to get higher Ohms
a 21 wrap of 26AWG / 1.5mm to get you a 1.8Ohm coil isn't practical when you can get the same with 9 wraps of 30AWG...

Correct.
Also, the higher the wire gauge the higher the ohms.

More wraps = more ohms Thinner wire = more ohms Thicker wire = less ohms Hope that helps |
