2 question about wire

[thewomenfolk]

Here's my 2 questions....

1) When rebuilding my coil, do I always have to use Temp Control if I'm using Ti or Ni wire?

2) Can a nickle coil like Ni200 be used with Watts? Or just Temp Control? Or does it depend upon whether or not I'm sub-ohming (going below 1.0 ohm?

Thanks to anybody who can help me.

Temp control only for Ni200 and Ti
Stainless steel can be used for both TC and watts

Thanks puffon! Are there no other Nickle wires except for Ni200?

In other words, I can't use Watts for any of my Nickle wire?

For vaping, not that I know of.
Over heating nickle can form oxides on the wire, that you don't want to breath.
Ni Coils

Sure there are other grades of nickel (like ni201), but you shouldn't use any of them without the protection of tc. Why do you want to use specifically nickel in vw mode? You could use nichrome though. Nickel and chromium, and safe in vw mode. Titanium you could basically use in vw, but you need to be careful and the results really aren't optimal. Some have used titanium with unregulated mods, where the increase in resistance gives a pseudo-tc experience. Still, better not to. Use stainless steel, kanthal, or nichrome in vw or unregulated mode.

Thanks for the further clarification KenD!

I sometimes use power mode when building TI coils but the power is always low

I never vape it that way obviously I use TC

1: Yes.
2: Not a good idea.

3: "Or does it depend upon whether or not I'm sub-ohming (going below 1.0 ohm?"
Makes no sense. There isn't really anything as 'sub-ohming'. The description 'sub-ohming' really made a little sense when using mech mods running at 4 volts, in which case 'sub-ohming' really translated to mean vaping at over 20 watts and therefore making a lot of cloud.

I have yet to find a single credible source to back up this bit of folklore.

Ni200 can leach a bit of carbon with higher heat. I am a carbon based lifeform.

Thanks. I welcome all opinions on this matter.
