coil

So I showed off my coils the other day... on here... and I think I'm reaching the life span on them.

I have dual parallels (nichrome) wrapped 6 times, but all of a sudden today my voltage and ohms have been jumping around. I've checked and rechecked my screws in the posts. They're fine.

Any thoughts

Oh, suggestion, remove wicking material and dry burn. Examine thoroughly for hot spots/legs and even burn from the middle.
If it all checks out and problem persists, toss them and rebuild.
