So I was playing around with trying to make a dual coil for my Vivi. So I thought instead of running two coils inline instead I weaved the wire between the two sets of wicks also used non resistance wire to run to the base. So the idea is that with the coil between the two sets of wicks. Its reading at 2.4 Ohms so not as low as I wanted but for two coils its not bad. If you plan on doing this use a 30GA wire to add support to the wicks and then use solder to hold them together. Good luck and enjoy!

    i know this is very impressive but being a noob when i read all these posts and blogs on DIY wicking etc it sounds like the teacher from Charlie Brown !!!!!! lol maybe someday i will understand all this :)

    Hmmm, seems like an easier way to run dual coils than previously mentioned tactic and putting 2 separate coils together
    How is it working out?

    Its working great the only issiue is they are so small that you need to make shure they dont touch.

    I will try to put a video together whit the large scale modelof the wick.

    Interesting idea, gives you the larger surface area without the parallel resistance. Let us know how it’s vaping.

    Very interesting.

  13. michellebastin on February 5th, 2013 8:36 pm

    Building your own is very easy. I have only been vaping for a few weeks now. I got my wire and silica from ebay, you can also get cotton thick string or cotton yarn from arts and crafts store.

  17. GhOsT DoGg 79 on February 7th, 2013 1:14 pm

    Shall try it today

  18. The Crooked One on February 7th, 2013 2:12 pm

    I just burn cotton for some reason…

  19. jimpo42 on February 8th, 2013 3:30 pm

    I like a higher resistance anyway. How is vapor production?

  20. Donald Hammond on February 9th, 2013 9:57 am

    I would think this would cause a lot of hotspots?

  21. Johnathan Brown (Sepsis) on February 10th, 2013 8:33 pm

    I’ve seen this done a couples times before. What wicking material are you using? In the picture it looks like plastic O.o
