Range is 4.5 blocks to the side. Range up seems to be 3.5 blocks. Someone standing on three full blocks and half a block directly above the coil will get hit, someone standing on 4 blocks above the coil will not (tested with player and chicken ;) ). Range down seems to be 4.5 for chicken. It will get grilled if it is standing on a block with 4.5 blocks of air above, and will not if it's standing on a block with 5 blocks of air. For stuff like players the range is standing on a block 5.5 down (because they're higher). Villagers will need at most 5 blocks of air above to still get hit
