is there any solderless way to connect resistance wire

[goose2]

is there anything out there like jb weld type liquid that would work to attach the resistance wire to non resistance wire?well that would be safe to use in a tank that is?thanks

 

[Stinson]

Tie them both together since they are both wire?Or am i missing something?

Some use these silver crimp beads, but seems to get mixed reviews in the GG forum. I'd look into it good to make sure it's for you, need good eyesight, crimp tool, and practice makes perfect. Amazon.com: Sterling Silver Ultra Micro Crimp Beads 1mm x 1mm (100): Arts, Crafts & Sewing This is just an example, not best deal. I have'nt used them, just thought I'd throw out the idea.

Yes the silver crimps work good... I used some stainless steel and it didn't have a very good connection... the silver ones work way better

put them together like an X, twist the ends together and you will have a Y. Take that ( y leg, bend it back towards the nr wire and wrap it with the nr wire, Will be a little fat but should be secure.

This guy shows how to make a NR-R-NR coil for an Ody. It works well for Vivi Novas and any other coil you might want:

Another thing you can try doing is taking two end splices, and perform a fisherman's knot on them (otherwise known as a miniature noose.) That'll keep them secure too.

What "unloaded" posted in post # 6 , the video shows simple way to twist them together at around the 6:45 mark in video and this works excellent, no need to solder , crimp, glue etc.

You can use Etchant gel from dentists or some phosphoric acid .

Western union pigtail may work for you. My 2 cents worth.

If anyone fancies trying it - silver solder would work like a charm and can be bought from jewellery supplies stores plenty cheaply. Can be melted using a torch ligher at a pinch but a 'brulee' mini-torch does the job well (as in I use one all the time for SS'ing from jewellery to dissimilar metal wires).

Not sure how std. soldering flux would cope with the higher soldering temps though as I use borax (jewller's store again) with mine.

Use a 6-9 V power supply which can give about 10 A current (more-better). It could be a good old transformer from ancient lamp devices, receivers etc.
Find a piece of graphite (a big brush from an electrical motor will do), connect it to one pole of the power supply.
Twist two wires - high resistance and non resistance - two-three coils. Connect them both (opposite ends to twisted) to another pole. Switch on and touch the twisted end of wires to the graphite (dangeR! You can damage your eyes, so use a special glasses or just blink or better turn eyes away!). After some training you will get an accurate solder point looking like a sphere. Usually no flux needed. Sometimes it's a good practice to make a deepening in the graphite and put a graphite powder there.

hi slimest ! and all
glad i came across this info again
growing up in europe after ww2 we had had to improvise and used a transformer and the center carbon of a c sise battery
that was ac of course now i will try that w my poer supply which is variable dc i can go upto 10 amps.it has circut breakers .
[ the one in my thread power vaping brick ] hope this will work
are we having funn jet ? rolf

Agree with Watermelon - why not twist together?
