Coil Advice

[Quahog5]

I’m about to start using an rda and as I’m a complete novice I am going to get some prebuilt coils, I do intend to make my own in future but tiny steps and all that. All the ones I can find have the legs facing in the same direction and my deck needs legs in opposite direction. I’m guessing I just need to wrap one leg an extra half turn but wondering how that will affect the coils resistance?

it will make it a little higher or lower depending on if you wrap or unwrap...

the amount will depend on the wire but it won't be a massive amount.

Add half a wrap, the resistance will go up slightly, or remove half a wrap, and it will go down slightly. Try both ways, see which you prefer.

you could unwrap one end 1/4 turn and wrap the other 1/4 turn and keep the resistance the same.

it did work in my head.
Sitting here with wire round a screwdriver I see why it does not work.
