So I ordered some Kanthal wire, and it got delivered to the wrong state. Is there any kind of stores (like chain stores) that sell it, or something I can use till I get another order ?
Thanks, Kenny

I've never seen it offered anywhere except online. Never heard of it until I started rebuilding my own coils then I found it is related to nichrome wire. I did a quick google and it is not listed in any big box, hardware, wally world or anyplace except on amazon, ebay, vape stores and the kanthal wire company web site. Your location looks to be as remote as mine and unless you have a B&M within an hour of you it seems you may have to order online again? There seems to be only five states with a New Castle in them so you have a 20% chance of getting it this time.

Our B&M stores around here carry it but it's quite expensive. One that I bought from once was $1.50 per.ft. But thats an option if your waiting
You are getting ripped off sir. Kidneypuncher has it for $17 for 250ft. I get mine from Temco at $7 for 100ft.
Oh I agree. I only did it once though and that was because I was needing some while waiting on an order to come in. Yeah, I looked at that spool of wire and said to myself that's $150.00 roll of wire right there!! There was another B&M that I paid $16.00 a roll for
This sucks. I ordered a roll along with 2 Sony 30 amp batteries and checked the tracking to a city next to mine. Then this morning saw that it was being delivered in the next state. I even paid $4.00 extra to have it delivered priority.
When I got my RDA the B&M did a dual coil at .9 ohms. I used the little of wire I had left and did a single coil at 1.5 ohms and it's giving off so much more vapor ?

You can check with a local ecig vendor if you have one in your area. Some of the B&Ms in my area carry Kanthal & wicking. It costs more of course but it'll get you by until whatever you ordered on line gets there.
The problem with finding it in the world is that it is not considered a consumer item. It is use in the manufacture of resistors, heating elements and the like. So other than vaping B&Ms you are going to be hard pressed to find it at a retail outlet. Other than B&Ms about the only hope is going to maybe be speciality industrial supply type stores.
Yeah, I bought a foot of 30ga from the local B&M to try my hand at doing coils. Search "kanthal" on Amazon. I got 100' rolls from there for 7 bucks and change, shipped. I was gonna offer to sell them wire for a buck a foot, but I didn't feel like hacking them off. Honestly, they have been very helpful and nice.
