Now looking at it there's more coils one side then the other bad skills

Looks like 1 has 8 turns and the other 10 cant get a good zoom as looking on mobile.

Agree with Danny K looking at photo on iPad

I concur. They need to be identical as opposed to 8 one side and 10 on the other. They're touching too. Surely that won't help. I've not had touchy coils before but won't they short and cross current? Or something.

I'll make sure they don't touch @audisyence

Thicker kanthal too will help. Give .28mm a go. There's less resistance with thicker wire.
