RESISTANCE WIRE CALCULATOR

I created a resistance wire calculator for myself and it’s been working pretty good so I decided to pretty it up a bit and share it with you guys.

It available to download by clicking the image below.  Excel is required.

It’s also been added to the tutorial section for setting up Genesis atomizers.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Enter the target resistance of the coil you’re trying to make in the first field.
  2. Use the pull down in the second field to select the coil type (currently supports single, dual, and triple
  3. Use the pull down in the third field to select the Kanthal gauge (currently supports 28, 32, & 34 – metric also displayed)
  4. The wire length in inches, cm, and the number of wires required will be calculated for you.
  5. It’s easy and funny.  (HA!  I crack myself up).

Note that the calculations are based on detailed resistance measurements of A-1 Kanthal I purchased from Temco on Ebay.  Depending on what your using, you may need to modify the calculations a bit.

If there’s anyone interested in turning this into a more complete web or Android app, please feel free!  Just let me know so I can post it here.
