Ni200

[roisterboy]

I vape on a joyetech evic using NI200 kangertech coils. I typically vape at 35w at 530 degrees. Is this too high of a temp to vape on Ni200 coils?

No, Ni200 is safe at that temp.

It isn't "too high", but must would prefer to stay under the flash point of cotton, which is right around 450F. If you keep your wick wet, you can easily bump it up over 600F without issue. The problem starts if the wick gets dry, above (approx) 450F you can get burnt hits, which pretty much defeats the purpose of using TC. If you are religious about keeping you wick wet, and need to run a Ni build way past 450F, you might as well use kanthal and avoid the extra work that comes with Ni coils.

You don't get burnt hits. The whole purpose of TC is that it cuts the power if the temps get too high. If your wick starts drying out the temps increase and the mod cuts the power. This happens at 500+ just like it happens at 450 and below. The only difference is with a 500+ temperature setting the mod will cut the power sooner as it takes less drying of the wick to make the temperatures increase above your threshold. The only thing you may run into running a temperature that high is you may "cook" the flavoring, which won't taste very good. Some flavorings don't react well to high heat and may give a "burnt" flavor, but it's not burning the wicks.

To the OP...

There is no safety problem with running Ni200 coils that high. As long as it tastes right to you then there is no problem at all. Ni200 coils have to be heated well over 700F before they start releasing toxins and no temperature control mod goes that high in temps.

Good point Randy. I typically get 0 burned hits on my TC mod. My real concern is the NI leeching.

I don't think my evic goes past 600F. There's lots of info on the web about the dangers of NI wire for vaping. I find it difficult to sift through all the bs. Thanks for the feedback!

You will most certainly get a dry hit, it may not be a full 4 or 5 second hit like you get from kanthal, but you can still burn a dry wick above its flash point using nickel. I have done it occasionally even at 450F, granted, it is not as awful as a kanthal dry hit, more of a hint of one, but there none-the-less at 450F. At 500-600F, I would assume it is more likely, and more pronounced.

You should be good at that temp if it feels right to you!

I must say I am a little nervous using these NI200 coils. Last night my coil was very finicky. With Temperature control, is it possible to overheat NI coils? Last night when I was vaping the coil was not firing correctly. I turned my evic vt off and back on. Still the same result. I removed the tank and then reattached. The device sensed the tank was detached and reattached then flashed the message if I was using a new coil or same coil. This time I indicated I was using a new. It seemed started firing again but not for very long. I suppose the coil was bad? My question is if I indicate I have a new coil but really it's the same coil, is it possible to overheat the coil to the point where nickle breaks down and releases toxins?
