Strike 18 coil advice

29awg ni80 1.6ohms on that 1
Position and height look cracking. I think it's the nichrome that's at issue.
Try kanthal at 26/27 awg. Nichrome seems to get too hot too quickly for chamber size. Don't know the science but steel was variable nichrome didn't work but kanthal couldn't go wrong. Aim for.1-1.1ohm.
Works perfectly with much set ups too as it is a slightly more gentle ramp up but the small chamber needs it.

Please do mate as so far all that's picked one up has been astonished how good the flavour is.
We will get there.

Old coil. But currently giving bags of flavour.

New build, 26awg kanthal, flavour has improved but still nowhere near as much as I get from the hadaly
 
Perhaps your expecting too much. Pound for pound your getting much more flavour from strike remembering your getting about a twentieth of the vapour for mtl.
Just a thought you are using a mtl juice aren't you as juices with vg over 60% aren't really best in a mtl set up.

That could be part of the problem then, I've just been using my normal 70/30 liquid that I use for my dtl setups... I'll have a go with a 50/50 when I get chance to mix some. Cheers mate, you've been very helpful :)
