I'm researching in the meantime but figured I'd ask exactly what I'm trying to do.
I've never used anything but kanthal for years.
Now I use kanthal fused claptons: 28x2 inner, 32 outer. I usually make dual coil 3.5mm 6-wraps, good vapor but the ramp up time is too long, so I want to try TC.
I don't know which metal to use because I don't want to kill battery fast. I use a single 3000 mAh 18650 mod (for single smaller diameter coils, I realize I can't get too much battery life with that), and I have a dual 3000 mAh, and triple 3000 mAh mod but I don't like triple 18650 because it's gigantic in pocket.
I CAN use SS in wattage mode and it might have faster ramp up than kanthal? but I'm not sure if it'll kill battery fast. Or if I'd be better off using a hybrid mix of wire types.
Basically I want the wire to do everything: fit huge exotic coils (and large diameter, I'm ordering 4 and 4.5mm coiling rods that I can hopefully fit in my tanks). But the single 18650 is for smaller single coil RTAs I will probably use a single 5-wrap 2.5-3mm exotic.
I'm getting a giant 30mm RDA (will use triple 18650 MOD for that probably but will not use it daily). And want to fit some big coils in that (quad-octa 4-6mm 6-wrap if it'll fit).
I never used TC but doesn't seem too hard to do. All my MODs are DNA. I click 5X lock it out, hold two buttons and set temperature if I'm not mistaken that's all it takes.
If I end up using SS in Wattage mode, I just hold 2 buttons to 'lock ohms'? Otherwise it might fluctuate and give a burnt/weak hit depending on which way it fluctuated? I read the fluctuation isn't even much though, people use SS wattage on Mech MODs and said it's always been safe for them.
So yea anyway, I plan to buy spools of the stuff too, not premade coils, (and no, not going to spin my own exotic coils from individual wire). I plant to maybe try stuff more exotic than fused claptons like staple staggered alien etc if I google about that and see a reason to. I was going to buy spools on fasttech with my order but read to stick with well-trusted brands.
I want huge vapor and good battery life and good coil life (basically everything), but if I have to compromise to achieve much better battery life by replacing coils more often, then I'm fine with that if that type of wire needs to be replaced more often.
