So can any body answer? will the AVS SS430 Claptons work in TC on the dna?
Running a TI clapton in wattage mode and getting the same hit every time. Even when it starts gunking.
That's where I got mine. Found it bang on with TCR of .00138Incidentally, Steamer, the SS430 I'm using came from unkamen, 28 gauge.
Same here.I use both Temco and Unkamen Ti. Both are spot on.
That's what I do also. Followed by the gospel in the TensionedMC thread, turn the tool not the wire.I spin the Ti in the drill & it becomes easer to work with.
"Replay" works.
Is that really a good thing? One of the reasons I reverted to mechs is that using them prevents me from compensating for a gunked coil or a less-than-optimal wick.Running a TI clapton in wattage mode and getting the same hit every time. Even when it starts gunking.

If you've told your DNA what kind of wire you're using (and I understand you don't have to do that), can it track wire temperature in Replay mode? If so, what happens to the wire temp as the coil gets gunked up?
I think Mike just likes Ti. I can't say I blame him. It was my material of choice too during the year or so that I used TC. Now I'll admit this was back in the DNA40 days, when nickel and titanium were the only options. Ti was "unsupported" but it did work, while stainless didn't. FWIW, I don't think there's anything "unsafe" about Ti.Also What would be the reason for Ti?
Definitely. I documented that (it's in my one and only blog entry) when some Greeks were pushing Ti wire before TC even existed. But I don't think that's a problem, even in wattage mode, as long as the wick and coil is kept plenty wet; it simply won't get hot enough to form those oxides.I will say thou, if you over heat it, Ti does make a white residue!
