Hi

For the nautilus, yes, the trition mini ni200 coil should work, but it's a little scarce now.

The Nautilus X can use the pockex 0.6 ohm ss coil; I had moderate success with it in TC.

Older tanks like the eGo One V2/Tron can use ni200 and TI coils. I think some TC coils might still be available for the eleaf GS tanks, though I don't think SS is an option. The cubis had ss coils and I think they're tc capable.

The zenith? I'm not sure, but "plexus" pops up a lot in the thread for that tank. Funny feeling it's not for TC though.

The triton mini coils are an option (I think it's the mini) there's nickel or possibly ceramic. I wouldn't trust me 100% on that but they are hard to find.

The plexus coils are not TC, I have heard rumors of a TC coil (SS) for the Innoken Zenith but nothing concrete, I hope they do it.

Here's an overview of what a Czech shop has for SS316 drop in coils
https://www.yourcigarette.eu/sectio...eating-heads-13.html?f_prisl_drattyp=3&pg=1-3
They aren't all MTL but I think about half of them are. At the top there's a green dropdown arrow (labeled "Zvolte" as a default) where you can also select Ni (=Ni200) and Titanium (though choice is definitely less then).

There's about 10 times more TC drop in coils than the last time I looked and I doubt they have a complete collection of all available ones.

That's a pretty useful site now if only it were in the US... I bookmarked it though.

And I suppose you Europeans should have nice things too, LOL.

I find the N2 coils to be the trickiest, but honestly, I'm entirely uncertain if I actually NEED them to be TC that much.

For the masochistic among us, I guess there's always rebuilding the coil with a TC wire, the added bonus being you could target whatever resistance you want. I am completely clear on my lack of talent with coils, I have a feeling rebuilding any MTL stock coil besides the Joytech CLR coil (which ALREADY has Tc wires I think) is a task that I would find at best, horrific and at worst, impossible.

Yeah, the SMOK ones are probably all Kanthal. They got "color: stainless" marked on the scratch-and-sniff though I guess that's why there's confusion

    I just wanted to try tc because of being forgetful and running my tanks dry. I do OK mostly but I guess I've too many years on a big carto tank that even when the tank is empty I have some in the carto itself to act as a buffer

    My ideal setup would probably be a small lipo mod with Replay and a mtl factory coil tank. Guess I might have to wait a few more years for that.

    They use refillable replaceable pods that are reported to have decent lifespans. Something like $4 a pod, so if they last a week or two the cost is sort like drop in tank coils. They should offer both mtl and dl pods and do have adjustable airflow.

    As to performance, I guess we'll see when it's released. I can't remember the battery rating on it but hopefully enough for a day even with a dl pod.

    Looks like 900mah, 2ml, 30W, $55-----or thereabouts. Reckon there will be much action on it here when it comes out. My personal version of fun doesn't include 2ml tho, lol. Maybe remove the cap and strap on a 3ml gorilla bottle...
