Need help from former MFS (MyFreedomSmokes) customers
Has any found a supplier or company that has tobacco e-juice like or very similar to MFS Turbosmog, Tall Paul, or Red Luck?

just tried my first spaced coil on a spare zenith, couldn't bare to do it with plain wire so i did a ni200 clapton with 29g ni200 core wrapped in 29g ni200. This thing is amazing, not sure if i have seen a clapton done for temp control but you have to try it.
came out at 0.12ohm at 450f and 40w i cant even get it to throttle down but its chucking thick vapor and the flavour is better than a kanthal clapton.
Looks nice man. My vs dna40 and nickel wire are out for delivery today so I will be experimenting with different builds this weekend.
So with the nickel builds, I see the majority of the coils ohm out super low. Do you treat the super low builds the same as kanthal? Also what about battery safety? Is this any different or the same principle?
nickel clapton was a lot easier to coil than a kanthal one too, nowhere near as springy
The chip takes care of temp control. Set the desired temp and wattage and the chip will deal with what gets sent to the coil. It's weird at first I know.
Just some thanks for the hard work ya'll went through sorting this DNA 40/Nickel 200 issue, here's my success:
DNA40 from Protovaper, twisted 30 gauge Ni200/Kanthal, 3mm coils 6+ turns, maybe .2 ohms, spaced coils, magma dripper. No matter how crappy it looks, it vapes just fine, and the kanthal in the twist makes it tough enough to use thru hole post mounts and multiple cotton changes (fyi, cotton washes clean, no burns).
Oh, settings are 370 Deg F and 11-12 watts, why? , the Ni/K fools the temp controller due to the parallel resistances and kanthal's minimal coefficient, Set 370 equals 410 actual temp.
For me, the twisted Ni/K has been a flawless experience, plus, the helical geometry adds an extra 30% resistance, due to the length of wire increase. Actually the calcs said 50% increase in a 24 full twists per inch, but the DNA read only a 30% increase (7" of twist compared to 7" 30 gauge Ni).
So again thanks ladies and gentlemen for making my transition into the vaping world pretty painless

And don't get coils mixed up and put a nickel coil built atty on something else like captain stupid here did. Blew the fuse in my Dibi real quick.
I wondered about this too when I first found Battery drain | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators
But the battery drain is only dependent on the watts you set and the efficiency of the voltage transformation. So at 40 watts with 95% efficiency and 3.5 battery voltage you will only have 12 ampere draw. No matter what coil resistance.
Does anyone know if the ni200 has the same/similar heating properties as other nickel/nichrome blends?
Hard as heck to find vaping stuff in these neck of the woods, but I found a place that sells nickel 32 gauge wire... doesn't state the purity, but resistance is 0.125 ohms/meter. ni200 perhaps?

NI200 is just 99.5% pure nickel so any pure nickel should work fine. Just no alloys like nichrome. 0.125 ohm/meter seems like the wrong unit or something it should be somewhere around 2.9 Ohm/m for AWG32 (0.2mm diameter) nickel wire.
It's normally sold in vape shops as "non resistance wire".
You could also search jewelry supply shops. Titanium wire works too.
Haha well it might make more sense to be in ukvapers for more local sources. But I believe in quantity yielding more quality overall
i get mine from here in the uk www.vape-atomizer-mesh.com really good delivery and they always give you a little roll of something else to trial too. they do ni200 99% nickel and pure nickel 99.99% not sure whats the difference for us but ive been using the 29g ni200, it was £5 for 25 metres
