TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
Oh except I haven't got SS304 in 26. I have SS316 in 26, I suppose that will do for now. I will see if I can get some 304 at some point though, given slightly better TCR -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
You were clear, that's what I understood! I was asking if you can elaborate on how the Ti is better? But I suppose you just did, it had better flavour and thickness of vapour. And that was comparing like-for-like? 26G Titanim to 26G NiFe, or whatever your preferred wire size is? Or same... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
Yeah that sounds likely. SS will certainly be quite a way ahead of NiFe. I used to think SS was a wire with a major disadvantage of inaccuracy, but based on our recent number crunching it doesn't seem like that at all. It could well be that SS is just as good in practice as NiFe, at least on... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
And PS. Yes I often get unspooling with CW spools because they are the only ones with no attachment method on the spool. I had an entire spool of 26G unwrap once. That wasn't very fun. I use a knife to cut notches in the spool, but it's not as good as having pre-cut notches or holes in the spool. -
New Squape Rs 1:1 clone by SXK
Yeah I thought it a bit odd there was no o-ring on the chimney connection, but as it was the same on both my clones I figured it must match the original, and I left it. No leaking, no problems at all. -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
I regret the Mercedes/Ford/whatever comparison :) I certainly don't want a pissing contest either. The main point of my comparison was the one to Ni200. I was going for the idea that Ni200 -> Titanium was an enormous leap, and then Titanium -> NiFe was a question of a few % points of... -
Authentic Aqua V2 for $25 shipped...
Knew you would :) Far too good to pass up -
Apollo Reliant 60W - TC with TCR adjustment, including Stainless Steel support
If the TCR is too low, it won't reach your configured temp; you will need to set the temp higher than you actually want. If the TCR is too high, it will overshoot your configured temp; you will need to set the temp lower than you actually want. I think that's the same as what @cigatron said, I... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
Interesting - so 2x30 is actually almost exactly the same as 28, resistance wise. -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
I think 2x30 is going to come out similar to 27G. When I do 2x29 it's fairly similar in size/resistance to 26G. Do you have any problems with your existing vape? By all means experiment of course, I just wouldn't want you to think that you need to go to 0.4, or any given resistance, to get a... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
OK interesting. Specs I've tested on other mods were wrong, but sounds like that one is real. So unfortunately they actually put a hard limit in. They probably thought that >1.0Ω had to be Kanthal, so they would help users out by auto switching on an ohm-plus coil because they must have made... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
That's good - maximising the accuracy, doubly important with SS! :) It does raise a good point though, one we've briefly touched upon before: do any mods have upper limits on the ohms? The specs claim they do, but we found that to be mostly wrong. We know for sure the DNA 40 has no hard... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
All right then the Titanium is the Mercedes and NiFe52 is a Pagani Huayra :) -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
I am of course exaggerating :p On a hypothetical desert island with only Ni200 and Kanthal, I'd use the Ni200 versus going back to non-TC Kanthal. I'd definitely grumble about it all the time though. -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
Yes I'm going to be getting more NiFe in the coming weeks than I can ever expect to use, so I will certainly PIF But anyway, Titanium is more than fine :) The differences of, say, NiFe52 compared to Titanium is perhaps the difference between a Mercedes and a Ford. Whereas Titanium to Ni200 is... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
When comparing accuracy, I did it the other way around. I didn't look at resistance first, I looked at the coil I wanted to build. My default build is 8 x 3mm wraps of 26G, slightly spaced . This build: Fits in all my atomizers, including cramped dual-coil decks with narrow chimneys Provides... -
Apollo Reliant 60W - TC with TCR adjustment, including Stainless Steel support
This was a free original, so I don't think I feel cheeky enough to return it :) It's getting a lot better. It's definitely loosened up a lot. It now presses every time when I do so normally, holding the mod like a lighter and using my thumb to press the button. A few times I've tried holding... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
Thanks! It really is a pleasure. The number of TCR mods is growing quite well now. DNA 200 of course, available in lots of different mods now and soon. The new Smok chips, XCube 2 and Koopor Mini (and Treebox, probably identical to Koopor.) Of those, only the XCube 2 currently allows TCR to... -
TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance
Great stuff! That is exactly why I love NiFe wire, because it has all those advantages and it's more accurate than SS. Although what the last few days have taught me is that actually SS is not nearly as inaccurate as I thought - in fact it may even be more accurate than Ni200! So I won't try...
