New to vaping.....

[Mimi90]

I work in a vaping store and could do with some help with the terminology and the modes on the bigger mods like the smok tpriv and the vaporesso revenger

Hi and welcome,
What equipment are you using to vape?
Have you read the manuals for the devices you mentioned?

Where are you located?

cheers

Hey, thank you!
I'm using the smok tpriv myself, and yea I've read the manuals so I know the basics, but it's modes like the ccw/cct that I'm just starting to learn about..... and still very confused as to which coils are best for vw/tc and how to tell the difference.

I'm from Ireland.... and we're still relatively new to the vaping scene.

TC coil materials are Stainless steel, nickel, titanium or zirconium. As the wire gets hotter, it's resistance increases at a predicable rate and the "chip" in the device is able to correlate the resistance to an approximate temperature.
Stainless steel, nichrome, and kanthal can be used in wattage mode. Titanium, nickle and zirconioum should only be used in TC mode.

CCW/CCT lets you control/customize the output of your device in .5 second increments for the duration of the "hit".
CCW VS VW = at 40watts in VW, the coil gets 40 watts of power delivered from the moment you push the button until you release it.
CCW would allow you to increase or decrease the power delivered every half second. One benefit is to allow the reduction of power delivered at the end of the draw to help the coil cool down a bit before it is not longer being cooled by the air being inhaled. Conversely, you can choose to increase the power delivered at the beginning of the draw to bring the coil to working temperature more quickly.
The user can customize the vape to be exactly as they wish.
Youtube is a great resource for education. Once you learn your device and it's functions, most of the information can be applied to other popular devices on the market.

The best way to lean is to just play. So enter CCW mode and adjust the "points" a bit, vape a bit and see how it changes your experience. Rinse, repeat.

Zirconium for TC? Where do you get it from and what's it's TCR? From my Google "be an expert in 5 minutes about anything", it looks like zirconium is a byproduct of purifying Ti. I honestly never haven't heard of that one.

 

[Skreech]

I've seen zirconium in some online shops but they never have any stock. Certainly not in the UK. It's a bit like unobtanium.

Howdy! Welcome to ECF!

Welcome. Good for you for wanting to learn.

Hey, for real bling, there always Platinum wire. You can apparently get it from a jewelry supply business. There's a thread here about its use and TCR issues. platinum coils

Hi Mimi and welcome to the board. Anna is not the only one pleased to see a vape shop type here trying to learn to be better at it. Poor shop employees is a pet peeve of many of us. In some cases their lack of knowledge can be dangerous. I really can't help much with your questions beyond the answers you're already getting, but welcome anyway. Feel free to ask anything you like.

As to modes, depends on which mfg'r defines a "mode". Here, you best bet is to visit the web site and use the mfg'rs contact page.
