  • Last month I got some 18 awg stainless steel and a spool of 20 awg ni-200 and I'm lost in what to do with it.maybe someone on this forum has an idea (other then throwing it away lol)and to answer your question it was a mess up, thought it was ni80 20 awg and the ss i guess I wasn't paying attention.

Only thing to do is test it vaping wise. You could get a fairly long single coil out of it and still be sub ohm, assuming you want sub ohm in the first place and it even fits in your post holes. As utility wire it’s good for a lot of things. Holding up a muffler would be one, but any kind of hostile environment tie up situation could be useful. You’ve got waterproof heat proof bailing wire, basically. Oh, one more: if you’ve got a variable voltage dc source you could make a fine foam cutter with it. I made mine from kanthal but SS should work just as well

I made a coil out of the ni-200 lol it was like 32 wraps at 1ohm.nuts took everything for my tesla 220 just to heat it.thanks for the idea of holding up a phone and tablets, kinda the same thing I guess.

You got the right idea, I do want to make some kinda coil.I guess some kinda continuing coil, maybe like a racer coil.I don't know lol
