Kayfun V4 nickel build

[Montecarlols]

well I just got an rdna40 vaporshark mod and was wondering about how to best build a coil with 28g ni200 to use the temp control. Do I just do a standard micro/macro coil with 9 wraps as I would with kanthal or is there a difference using the nickel wire? Thanks in advance

KF4 have a love hate relationship with ni200. Its because of the spring between the deck and the base. Your resistance on nickel might be off. the best way to remedy that problem is to replace the spring with a metal sleeve. Search for a metal sleeve mod for KF4 on here....
IMO for TC you should only use nickel not kanthal....dna40 boards are calibrated for nickel wire resistance

Nickel coils need to be spaced, so no touching micro coils like with kanthal

If you're using a 3mm diameter to wrap then 9 wraps should produce roughly .15 which I believe should be right around where you wanna be... but if your diameter is smaller you're gonna wanna add some wraps. You know about steam-engine?
