Someone build my invention and let me know what you think… It’s a fused Clapton deviation. The core is a single 26g next to a pair of twisted 28g, wrapped in 36 or 40. I call it a Gatorback because it reminds me of an alligator’s tail. It’s not exactly ‘jewelry’ but it seems to work well. I’d love other opinions though.

Only people who have made it are friends who probably wouldn’t give an unbiased opinion for fear of hard feelings. They’ve said it’s ‘surprisingly good’ (which likely means they are surprised I came up with a working idea), but I’d still like some other people to try it and give honest opinions, knowing that I don’t get offended.

What is the difference in vape and ohms if it is a spaced coil? I just use regular twisted kanthal 24g but I was wondering why people do spaces?

I really want to try this as well, when I get some smaller wire.

I run tc temp control so spaced coils give less variances in ohms, I run low resistance builds as well, they normally ohm out around .12-.14. With tc contact coils can throw everything off, because the way the mod tells how hot the coils are is by reading the resistance and as the coils heat they can move a small amount and change the resistance which in turn will give you hardly any vape or causing the gates of hell to open.

Spaced coils are good to eliminate hotspots. You don’t even need to pulse, fire but it is recommended just for assurance. Once I tried spacing the coils, have never gone back to contact coils. Flavor is arguably better too.

Prep for fusing later at some point.
