    TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance

    Though actually.. stupid me, of course if they have used a TCR around 0.004 for Platinum, we could vape NiFe52 on that setting with no offset! (Platinum is showing as 0.00393 - close enough to NiFe52 @ 0.00404!) Way to go Wotofo! :D (Assuming Platinum is a flat TCR and/or they implemented...

    Apollo Reliant 60W - TC with TCR adjustment, including Stainless Steel support

    Thank you sir, I can assure you it's a pleasure! I love vaping, experimenting with vaping, and talking about experimenting with vaping, and responses such as yours make it even more worthwhile.

    TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance

    This will have to do for now :) Hmm, floating point precision error perhaps? Have you raised it to Evolv? Ah ha, I see :) But I did not only look there, I clicked on 5 different places, and a few more just now, and all are in the hundreds. Maybe Goodfellow is particularly expensive, but...

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    Have you tried Rayon, @ThunderDan ? Cheap and easily available in the US. Look for Graham's Cellucotton, available from, amongst other places, a store called something like Sally's. Probably lots on eBay as well, which is where I got my most recent bag. I also bought some Fibre Freaks on a...

    Apollo Reliant 60W - TC with TCR adjustment, including Stainless Steel support

    Fair enough :) I'll give it a go. You're certainly right that the majority of STM cases are likely coil heads, but I do know I've definitely heard of issues from a number of RBA users as well. It could of course simply be that the STM is used by a great number of people and that therefore...

    Apollo Reliant 60W - TC with TCR adjustment, including Stainless Steel support

    Yeah the Nebula / SXK chip is the crudest TC I've experienced. Very pulse-y when it's trying to limit, and in tests up to 20°C inaccurate. But in practice, I still find it more than usable. Technically speaking mods like the DNA 40, DNA 200, Dicodes, Yihi SX Mini M do an objectively better...

    Titanium wire, vaping and safety

    Oh just checked back on 3F, and the price has gone up. Now it's $6.98 for 10m, before it was $5.

    Titanium wire, vaping and safety

    As for the quality - it vapes perfectly fine. All I will say is it feels even softer than other Titaniums I've used. It's no more or less springy than others, but it does feel softer. That might make it more likely to break. I've only done a couple of coils with it, both under-screw, so I...

    Titanium wire, vaping and safety

    I didn't look at the picture properly This look familiar? :) That's what I got from 3FVape a week or two ago. $5 for 30ft. EDIT: It's $6.98 now! Ti Grade 1 26 AWG 0.4mm x 10m Titanium Heating Wire for RBA Perfectly clean, at least appearing so after a thorough alcohol wipe - the first...

    vapeabox monthly subscription

    Any news @crompers ? I must admit I'm interested in the idea of this, but have many questions. First of all I don't like the varying quantities, and how they don't match between title and description - eg Gold says 120-160 in the title, but 100-130 in the description. And I don't understand...

    But in the description it does say "Surgical Grade 1 Titanium" ? :)

    TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance

    Sorry, missed this part of the post in my previous answer: Summary: It is in principle the same as Alloy 52. But there can be small differences, which can change the TCR (and therefore required temperature offset on a non-TCR mod), and the resistance. What I can say with some confidence is...

    Apollo Reliant 60W - TC with TCR adjustment, including Stainless Steel support

    I'll give you one example of where I for sure thought I could use Adjustable Iniital Ohms: my Kayfun 4 clone, with its infamous spring in the positive path which I haven't yet got around to fixing, has SR of up to 0.03Ω, huge. I thought I could use Adjustable Initial Ohms to remove this huge...

    Smok Koopor Mini 60w

    Cheapest list price I've yet seen on the Koopor - $31.99 from Angel Cigs, using $8 discount code: koopor Authentic Smok Koopor Mini 60W Temperature Control VW Variable Wattage Box Mod Silver However factoring in shipping (about $5, based on weight) it's more expensive than FT's $34.79. But...

    TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance

    I don't like thin wire, so I would definitely twist this 2x

    TC beyond Ni200: Nickel Purity, Dicodes; Ti, SS, Resistherm NiFe30; Coefficient of Resistance

    No I'm not looking at the wrong thing. That's how much platinum wire costs. Great stuff, Wotofo! Researching new wires = excellent! Be the first mod maker to add a third wire to a TC wire list = amazing! Making it a wire that costs $30 per coil = outstanding!
