Kanger OCC-Coils / eGo One CL(R) -> NiCr or Kanthal

[Knurlinger]

Tried to ask this on reddit already with exact 0 answers.

Anyone knows if the prebuild coils (especially the OCC from Kanger or the joyetech CL/CLR) use NiCr or Kanthal? Can not find this info anywhere.

In the past, NiCr was used mostly afaik, but maybe this changed to Kanthal in the meanwhile? Anyone has insights?

Both use Kanthal to the best of my knowledge. You can rebuild the CLRs with NiCr easily down to maybe .3 but you have risk of melting the grommet. I'd stay in the .4 range if the build isn't too big.

If there isn't a description that says the atomizer is made up of Nickel, Nichrome, or Titanium then its safe to assume that its Kanthal.

 

[Knurlinger]

sounds good, thx!

 

[Cloudmann]

Yep... they're kanthal.

 

[nyiddle]

Yeah, unless they say they're the nickel coils, they're Kanthal.

Additionally, the OCC nickel heads have a blue o-ring rather than red.

I do not know. But there are a lot of ready coils for rebuildables on Fasttech, all made from nichrom.

I think they are from the same factory as "original" coils. If it is true, it should be nichrom.
