I think a lot of people use them in the states, I don't think they are readily available in the UK. Bear in mind the 60 amp is the pulse rating, the continuous is 30 I believe.

Don't they have something like 6'000mAh?
Must take an absolute age to charge!!
I thought it was only 1500/1600 mah on the 18650, so would be quick to charge but very quick to discharge.
I could be dead wrong on the capacity though!
Nope, in fact I ordered 3 spools...
1x 26awg kanthal
1x 28awg kanthal
1x 28awg ni200
all three spools arrived lose in a jiffy bag with no markings on any of them, the 26th was easy to spot but took a while to figure out which was the ni200 from the two remaining spools..
just made a dual coil with the ni200, 4 wraps around a 3 mm tool each and it's coming in at about 0.12ohms... that's not right for 28awg,?

Is that the reading off the DNA40 chip? Have you tried the build on a resistance tester/ohm meter?
That's on my ohm reader and the dna... 0.1ohm now I've let the atty sit for 15 minutes off the mod...
The mod now sees it as 0.1ohm....
that's 2 coils, both 4.5 wraps around a 3 mm tool...?

I've only seen Rip say that, and it was pure speculation afaik. Like he says, it could be perfectly fine for all he knows.

That sounds fair enough, if it has got you off the smokes, mission accomplished!
I wouldn't worry about that, just make sure there is always juice in tank to keep the wicking material wet, you shouldn't have an issue. The Nautilus is a wildly popular device, if there was a concern it would be known by now I should think.
I have no experience with nickel coils but I think that might be about right, according to steam engine coil calc, a 0.1 single nickel coil is 7 wraps around a 3mm tool, so according to that dual coil would be 3.5 wraps each which I would say is very close to what you have if you give a margin of error to the calculator.

What resistance were you aiming for with the build?
Hopefully someone who has used nickel wire will be able to shed some light.

New atty - the Aqua V2
Wow this is a seriously good RBA. The flavour is amazing in this. Currently vaping Queens custard in it and its never tasted so good!
Got it rigged up in dual coil mode so she is kicking out the clouds too!
The build quality is very good both inside and out. And she looks so sexy too!
Air flow is also very good ranging from nice and airy to tight as you like. You can adjust it on the fly very easy.
Another nice touch is you can use this in RDA mode too, so its like getting two devices in one.
The Aqua V2 is a very good bit of kit. Gets two thumbs up from me!

Well the optimal ohm for an ni200 coil on the dna40 is .1 ohm, so i was aiming for .11, but from reading around, room temp affects ni200 resistance, so as my room temp changes, so does the coils res, however, it still looks like I have 32awg instead of the 28awg i ordered.
I'm not worried about it, but was just wanting to check my math as I'm not very good at it... but steam engine and microcoilplus seam to agree, give or take a wrap.
Might just stick to good old kanthal, so much quicker and easier...

Sounds like an awesome device mate, she's looking mighty fine too.
Glad you are enjoying it!

I think you are right mate, 30 or 32 gauge wire it looks like.
Kanthal will stop you from using the temp control feature will it not?

Todds got the sneak peak of the mvp2 up. 20w,dosnt fire under 0.9ohms and is basically in the same case as the mvp2 with the same battery in it. I think Ive outgrown it by now but it will be good for some.
