    TCR for Zivipf NiFe52

    Using a Pico 75W and 2.5mm coils. It does TC between 0.1 an 1.5 Ohms so yes, I guess I should be comfortable with lower resistance values and go for 52% Ni and the better TCR value. My Zifipv NiFe52 (48% Ni) hasn't even arrived yet but my finger's already hovering above the Order button to get...

    TCR for Zivipf NiFe52

    Thanks again for your input. But you're saying AWG28 would be too thin and AWG29 OK? AWG28 is thicker than AWG29 :?:

    TCR for Zivipf NiFe52

    Well, I'm using SS at the moment so any NiFe wire will have a much higher TCR which will improve TC. I'm an MTL smoker using a Dvarw and prefer a coil of around 0.4 Omhs. With SS I can use AWG28 wire but since NiFe has considerably lower resistance I already need to go for AWG30 to get the same...

    TCR for Zivipf NiFe52

    Thanks for your research Pierrotlunaire OK so if I want the highest possible resistance NiFe wire I need 48% Ni alloy which has a TCR of 310?

    TCR for Zivipf NiFe52

    Well that's exactly what confuses me. They give a TCR of 400 for their NiFe48 and 310 for NiFe52. If they're calling it NiFe 48 and 52 referring to the Fe percentage in the wire, then that would make perferct sense. However, their NiFe48 has a lower resistance than their NiFe52 which, if they...

    Liitokala Lii-500S

    The new Liitokala Lii-500S looks to be a great follow up to their Lii-500 It has 3 modes; Charge, Discharge and Test and it can charge 1 or 2 batteries up to 2 Amps each and 3 or 4 batteries up to 1 Amp each. The slots are large enough to hold 4x 21700 batteries and 2x 26650 + 2x 18650...

    Eleaf iStick "pico"

    OK thanks. Haven't taken one apart yet. I always thought the fire button would be the first thing to break down since it's used so much. Glad to know it's easy to reach.

    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    Oh it's not really about accuracy (at least not to me it is). It's the convenience of putting down bottle on a scale and just throwing in ingredients without the need of extra measuring tools and without having to do cleaning between the different ingredients and afterwards. I can make a recipe...

    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    Funny I posted a similar thread and blog entry in 2013 and only got a handful of replies since hardly anyone was interested. Looks like people have finally grown enough brain cells to value this method :cool:

    TCR for Zivipf NiFe52

    Got a reply from Zivipf themselves. Very short, no explanation, just numbers... NiFe52 resistance at 20°C: 10.2 Ohm/m ..... 3.1 ohm/ft wire diameter: 0.25mm / 0.010" / AWG 30 alloying elements: Ni 48%, Fe remains TCR = 310 Quite odd; their NiFe48 contains 52% Ni (so is actually NiFe52) while...
