Settings for Stainless Steel?

[Rarebird]

I saw a thread on this on here, but couldn't find it when I searched for it again. I am currently using kanthal coils but want to move to stainless steel in TC mode on my Kanger Nebox. However, there is no stainless steel setting on it. The modes are, nichrome, titanium, nickel, and wattage mode. Can I use one or more of these with the right temperature settings?

And I imagine I could use wattage mode?

My coils will be approx. .6 ohms with the included rba.

Thanks in advance for any help!

You have to use wattage mode. You don't say what wire you used. But for .6 I would use 28 or 30 awg and start with watts at about 10. Working my way up till I got the vape I want.

I'll be using 28 wire with 7 wraps on a 20 mandrel.

I would vape that build TC with watts set to 20 to 25 and temp of 380 to 430. In VW mode.. I would set watts to 15 to 20. My mod has a preheat function that would be 5 to 10 watts higher than run wattages.

I use low settings normally. In wattage mode, I usually vape between 18 and 22, and in TC I usually vape at 350. But if I use TC, I have to choose Ti, NiC or Ni. Does it make a difference?

Is you don't have a TC SS setting or a manual tcr setting then you CANNOT use SS or materials other than those listed in TC. The nichrome setting might work. In that it should fire . But the vape will be off. You will likely need to use higher than normal heat and wattage settings.

OK, to be on the safe side I'll just use wattage mode. Thanks for the help!

need to upgrade from the leakbox... SS in TC works well with the kbox minis... i'm only building with SS for my kangers now, loving it.

Well, I have a Kanger Cupti and already using SS in that...now that they've released the rba I'm happy. Just wanted to know if it was possible with my Nebox.

with ss some people get decent results using ti setting for temp control, but it will run hotter than your temperature setting. start at the lowest and gradually adjust to taste.
