I ripped apart a CE2 clearomizer today to clean it, I wasn't paying attention and I broke the wire. Crap!
I think that I can rebuild it but I need nicochrome wire.

Anyone know where you can buy nicochrome wire in Canada. I was thinking of The Source, Princess Auto ... A store that I can walk into and purchase.

Thanks.

You can get nichrome wire at hobby shops -- just say you need the heating element for a foam cutter. Something to keep in mind, though, is that nichrome wire heats up past the melting point of solder, so you aren't likely going to have much luck unless you have a spot-welder (and if you DO go the solder route, MAKE SURE IT'S RoHS COMPLIANT!!! Otherwise you'll be inhaling lead).
