It sounds like you're doing something wrong but I have no idea what. Coil shouldn't be getting red hot under normal use.
What wattage are you running it at? You need an ohm meter so you know what ohms your coils are, at least until you get experienced enough to know how to build coils flawlessly and use a calculator to determine how many wraps around what diameter to achieve your goal. No one really just starts wrapping coils randomly, we do it with a specific ohm range in mind.

Dude, unless you're trolling, that is the most ill-informed statement I've ever heard.
Do a little research, man, because you are so wrong it's not even funny.

The coils themselves are pre wrapped klaptons? I don't have to wrap them or anything. It stopped glowing red hot though. Maybe i didn't let it soak in enough? I got it at 90 watts though.
The package says 65 ohms, and when i hit it the e cig says 1.32 ohms.
I'm confused about the guy who says he thought about vaping. Like at what point in this thread has anyone said "have you ever considered vaping, and what made you make your decision to or not to do it?"

I can't imagine any clapton being 1.3 ohms.. Sometimes it's just a struggle to get them at .5 or .6. If I go with really high gauge wire for the cores, it's easier but getting that stuff straightened out is a huge pain in the ass. Lower gauges it's easier to straighten out, but then I have to do like 8 wraps or more just to get to .4.
It's hard for me to tell you what you're doing wrong over the internet, but I really think you're doing something wrong. Maybe not tightening them down good enough.
And 90 watts is pretty high. Especially if your coils really are somehow 1.3 ohms. Right now I've got a dual coil going at .5 ohm and I'm not even at a full 60 watts.

They're pre wrapped. E cig goes to 160, i figured 90 is reasonably close to the middle ground. Idk when i first started playing with the settings i got something messed up and didn't know how to get it back and it was unbearable, so I've been overly cautious to play with settings, ill see if it might be the wattage.

Try tightening down the coils a lot better, and dropping the wattage back to 50 and going up in 1-3 watt increments if nessecary.
90 is probably very excessive for what you're running. The only time I've needed to be above 75 was with some super low ohm super massive claptons. I've never had to run at more than 60 for any other clapton I've ever built.

I gor it on 70 right now, 60 felt a little light honestly. but yeah 90 was a bit excessive, not much flavor at that range. I got a really dope ass apple flavor though. It's amazing what you can taste with a dripper compared to the other e cigs i used to have.
I had a variable voltage pheonix, amd the only flavor that was appetizing to me was anything along the limes of a menthol flavor. I tried a thin mint flavor with the older one and it was doper than dabs, i can't wait to get a bottle of that shit tomorrow.

What box do you have? On my snow wolf I can adjust the temp and watts separately so maybe you increased temp by accident?
I just wrapped two .54 ohm coils so I'm running at 0.27 ohms at 90 watts and it chucks clouds like no other 
Edit: ah smok cube. Those fuckers have some crazy functions. Would you mind posting a pic or two of your coils?

Most mods aren't temp controlled. That's a pretty new thing.

That's true. The smok has blue tooth though so it probably has it lol.

Op does your set up look similar to mine at all? I know the smok has a four post design as well. Make sure you don't have a short or anything.
I wrapped a stove top cool for shits and giggles last night that literally melted off of the posts

Bluetooth? What the hell do you use bluetooth for on a vape?

I post from my phone, can't really figure out the pic upload deal. I'll post a link to my coils though.

So you can make important business calls while vaping and driving at the same time. Also i can play angry birds on it, while it doubles as a pedometer so i can get in shape and vape all at the same time.
Not really, the vape itself has 3 buttons so bluetooth lets you have an easier was to work with all the settings.
And to the above poster, yes that pic looks like mine. I got whatever my issue was earlier sorted out. Must have been to high on watts, or i didn't let liquid soak enough in the cotton?
I also would love to build a vape that plays music while you hit it. Like say i hit it for ten seconds, and it would play the first ten seconds of "rock on" by david essex. Then if i hit it for ten seconds later, it would play the next ten seconds of the same song. Ideally it would be the phantom cigar from metal gear solid.
I also wanna build a baine mask(from batman) and have each of the pipes on the face part be replaced by tanks. Imagine if every breath baine took, vapor surrounded his head.

A simple click on my signature and you could I dunno... educate yourself that that's a completely 100% full of shit statement.

Fuck yeah. Welcome to flavor country. With drippers you will learn the little quirks and shit.. fine tuning is necessary sometimes. Coil and wick building is an art form. Not to mention hopefully you are dropping your nic levels down compared to before? You need much less nic when you go to a dripper, especially if you are sub-ohming.

Oh yeah, 24mg menthol to 6 mg sweet tart apple overnight. Being able to take bigger hits reduces the need for all the nicotine.
It's wierd to, i actually have to be careful while vape driving so that i don't put out a cloud that blocks my vision. Before that wasn't even a possibility.

I'm still on 6
And op, try wrapping your own coils sometime! Just experimenting with shit will help you figure out the quirks or walk into your nearest vape store and have someone walk you through it, I find the shops around me to have some very nice, helpful people
