That was Hohm Techs claim to fame with their FSK chipset. It has presets for the regular TC wires such as Ni, SS, Ti and W (Tungsten). As well as an Advanced TC mode for Kanthal and Nichrome. There is even a xXx mode that allows you to tune the settings so you can TC any wire type installed such as Platinum etc.Kanthal Temp Control?? I did not know that was a thing
It does work quite well with non TC wire but needs tweaking and fine tuning to keep running smoothly and it's far from dna simplicity. I still have this G2 and a Slice (100W 26650 version) left in my collection.
Hohm Tech got out of the mod business quite a few years ago but they still make LiIon cells, their VaporCube store was blowing out the G2 for $14.99 and the Slice for $9.99 near the end of it all. A long way from the $150 I paid back in the day.
Here is a blast from the past review if you are interested. There is one where PBusardo couldn't get it to work at all so he brought Ben in from Hohm Tech for discussion in a follow up video, but that's 3 hours of Phil's yammering...
