If I were to start building

I think you’re talking about two different things. @TW12 is talking about buying just wire that’s already been wrapped into the shape of a coil like these that you mount and wick yourself:
s-l400

And you’re talking about preassembled coil heads that come wicked and in a housing that screws into your atty like this:

Thank you! Now I understand. I was talking about making them from wire. Pre wound!! YES that works for me. I thinkj I can live with this solution.

If you’re gonna hold off on using the White Rose until you get your building materials, charge it up and the unplug the battery from the mod. Nlpwm boards will drain the battery when not in use. You don’t want to kill that battery by not using it for a while.

Dont give up ! Building is a lot simpler than you think, i started back a few years ago following mr bursado videos, getting prewounded coils back then was not an option, never the less it took me no time to get the twist, start easy simple strait kanthal 26 gauge wire ,2.5 gauge (just the size of the mini screew driver i was using) a nail cutter, as for the thank depand if you like dl or mtl direct lung or mouth to lung, any way there is a lot out there for 25$ and under easy one i got now is siren2 you will need cotton like cotton bacon or organic cotton, this as been my favorit hoby since day one, the taste of prebuilt or home made is for me the major motivation since then.

Personally I only make one coil, and that’s the chain link coil in stainless, I find kanthal has a flavor I don’t care for, but it’s much easier to get a .30 or above coil in kanthal, I use rayon for wick it lasts much longer than cotton and doesn’t have any break in flavor. As far as an Atomizer I would recommend a series deck if you want to try stainless. Otherwise with kanthal you should be able to use just about any tank. I highly recommend the steam crave supreme.

This will probably help quite a bit, you can also YouTube almos any Atomizer and how to wick it

Coil building / install kit

You don’t necessarily have to make your own coils for rebuildable tanks.
You can buy a spool of pre-made ones or a pack of 10 individually wrapped ones at Advanced Vape Supply.

They have a 30% off sale right now if you are interested, free shipping for orders over $20.

The decision is whether or not you want to wrap the wires from the spools that they sell or buy pre-wrapped ones. Obviously spools are cheaper but it does require you to invest in a coil winding tool, flush wire cutters and some time to read up on how to use them.

Remember the coils will last you quite a while unlike pre-made stock ones in sub ohm tanks.
But you will have to re-wick every few days depending on juice and usage.

I have found that a velocity style (or two post) deck has been the easiest to install coils into without too much frustration whether you wrap wire or just install ones you buy. It is just the easiest for me to get coils in there and straight. You can orient them in different ways as well. It is my favorite deck to play around with. I also love being able to build a couple coils or just one to extend battery or keepy ohms higher because I do not think I have a series deck. Series deck sounds so very interesting though!52

This is a great atty for learning to build. It’s single coil with a huge amount of space which will be helpful in getting higher resistance builds for the WhiteRose. https://www.elementvape.com/digiflavor-pharaoh-dripper-tank-by-rip-trippers-project

Get familiar with this site: http://www.steam-engine.org/wirewiz.html Here you will learn how to design a coil for whatever resistance you want.

As per above get a took kit with an ohm meter. A must for safe building.

Just don’t get discouraged, it took me a week to learn how to wick decent and months to do it right 9 out of 10 times. Definitely a learning curve, I have Atomizers I still don’t wick well, but I will help all I can.
