I have the SX mini. Use it in power mode. TC just doesn't have the family jewels that I've grown to love. :)

My TC mods are limited to 40 watts. Have a 75 watt Sigelei coming. It will be interesting to see how it performs at 75 watts with TC.

ETA: I just checked and it cleared Canada customs today so I'll probably have it on Monday :thumbs:

I'll throw you a curve. I'm going to be using old school cartomisers with a Cloupor I just won in the contest.
Using TC with Boge NI200 cartomisers, lol. In an very old carto-tank.

I didn't know there were any Ni cartos. Great idea IMO. I still have a few Boge cartos and Mom and Pop's sub tanks from 2012 when I used them. Great system for non-gunky juices, but people had issues with priming them that TC will take care of.

Please investigate Nickel. It's supposed to only be used in TC mods. Nickel has a low vaporization point the TC protects you from the Nickel Coil Overheating.
When Nickel overheats possibility of Carcinogens being released.

Note-After Edit: I didn't realize that Reydan was using Nichrome. I thought she was using pure nickel. My statement holds true but doesn't apply to Reydan

I don't understand your post tomzgreat.

As I said I have a few older Boge cartos that use either Kanthal or NiChrome. I used these in VV mods back in 2012.

Boge now makes cartos with Ni coils for use in TC mods. A bunch of other manufacturers also make Ni heads for use in various attys with TC mods.

I don't see a problem with this :)

I'd say TC is a great way of using cartos, 'cause god knows, dry hits from cartos are just FOUL -- TC would keep that from ever happening! What I have a hard time imagining is anyone making titanium cartos -- seems somewhat like making one of those old-timey huge-front-wheel bicycles out of titanium. :lol:

I like both, kanthal or nicrome for that in your face hard hit with rdas, And Temp mostly thoughout the day with Tanks and a few RDA's when I what to really taste a new Flavor. Temp is not for everybody, You have to really dial it in for your liking Like finding the right build Temp/joules/wattage for that build and one of the most important things is to control the airflow usually closing it down a bit for temp control. I belive there are more variables that come with tempeture.

I bad All of the new nickel Atomizers for tanks are labeled as NI standing for Nickel. I confused your NI200 with being a pure Nickel Coil Atomizer.

I use the Asolo 200W box mod that does a dry hit protection on Kanthal... while it is not the same process as what most know as "Temp Control", it is a process to keep the user from getting/burning cotton.

To me, that does fall under the umbrella of "Temp Control", or at least one (if not the main reason) goals/reasons for using TC.

Sorry to post here with out any "vote", but is no choice/box for me to click that fits Kanthal w/TC (or D.H.P. if you prefer?)
