Stainless Steel Wire? For Rebuilding?

[MagicJosh]

Has anyone tried to rebuild with stainless steel, other than kanthal?

I wouldnt use that. But I believe it 316L that you can use. its a type of welding wire. But honestly I like plain old Kanthal or if Im feeling crazy I pull out my nichrome.

I use Rugged Wires sometimes, which is an SS blend, but not solely 316L. The resistance is about 1/2 of kanthal per gauge/foot

I got some of the SS 316 wire UD has and I still prefer kanthal over this. I don't know if it's supposed to be used with TC or not but my snow wolf didn't know what to make of it and after only a few hours of vaping the wires had a black crust on them that would flake off. It seemed sketchy so I pulled them out. I'll try again with it when I get my dna 200 box.
