    28awg /.32mm seems pretty versatile for micro coils. Don't know nout bout vg :-)

    If you want to get really low ohms you could get 29 or 30 awg. 6 wraps around a 2mm screwdriver give me around 1ohm with 28awg.

    & I use these ready made coils because I'm a lazy bastard :D

    They work admirably with cotton wicks ;)

    Are there any Kanthal wire coils available anywhere?

    Damn!
    I'm making my own but I get varied results.
    Sometimes not enough flavour and sometimes not enough smoke.
    Less leaking issues though!
