Um... they're metallic... I know that... they melt... yup. They can be cast or forged or spun or extruded... uh huh.Why don't you suggest it to modders in @mikepetro 's big thread? I know nothing about metals.
Right. It's not nice to gloat, Kat darling.![]()
This is contradictory to what I can find. I don't have the science background, but Nb can't be soldered without a specialized spark (electrical) welder. I can't melt it, cast it, extrude it. I can draw wire to work harden but I have to use cold fusion to join it.Um... they're metallic... I know that... they melt... yup. They can be cast or forged or spun or extruded... uh huh.

316L was known as "medical grade" or surgical steel. Has same % of nickel or higher but nickel was bound in a process so it didn't leech. So they thought. Turned out it does leech, sometimes more than 304/316. No longer used for medical devices (hip replacements) or tattooing. There are some 316's that don't leech but no way of knowing which ones. Main point is 316L is about the process. Same content as reg 316.
@pufZeppelin I know you don't like Smok products but I got this today. This is a suh-weet little mod!
If SS316L (which is 10-14% nickel) now has been shown to leech nickel carbonyl...
you need to get one of these SMOK V12 coils and tell me how it works...
So far, I love it!! Small, light and can be customized to fit the way I vape. And..there's no way in hell will I get one of those coils! No how, no way!so how is the neat 'lil mod doing ?? - it does look cool...
back in the day, I continually read of people having troubles with their SMOK products (electronically) more than most others
that's why I am leary toward buying/using them...
skip ahead a couple years, how far has SMOK advanced ??? (I no longer hear an abundance of complaints by the general peep population)
they make interesting enuff mods that plenty of reviewers have a look and I have watched several of them...

I DON'T NEED anything, but I am ALWAYS looking for the ultimate device that will survive my wifes' brutality (small,durable)
as of late she has killed a Pico - just yesterday she dropped her SMART BOX and separated the base on her eGo ONE mega tank (again) K.I.A.
then later in the day she dropped her Presa, the battery door flew off and the 18650 flew somewhere (later found it) sez she was panicked to have NO device working

Tweety, it's a nice tank! I have one and use it with the RBA.Oh dear. I won a Smok TFV4 mini a long time ago and I'm still afraid to even try it. It came with some scary looking coils (sextuple?). But it also has a nice looking RBA with a Clapton coil pre-installed. Anyone familiar with that atty? Should I try it?
Anyone use these for there ego's ?
