I've been using three original Crown tanks for over a year and a half. The coils have always lasted at least a month; never received a dud over that time.
I never bothered "upgrading" to a Crown 2, 3, or Valarian because of my "If it ain't broke, why fix it?" mentality. I'd read mixed reviews about those, too.

Nobody liked the Crown 2. The Crown 3 was a hit at least with a friend of mine who dumped all of his other tanks and bought two more. He's a cloud chaser, so there's that.
The Wismec chips are compatible with the Arctic Fox 3rd party firmware. If you want to go down that rabbit hole, you can customize that RX 20700 to the point where it's comparable to devices costing a whole bunch more.

Thanks, I am considering one for the wife. I would go with the Zenith but they decided not to make any SS coils.
Wait I thought these ss coils didn’t work in tc mode?
I think she will like it. As I said, I'm not a fan of metal mouthpieces, and replaced all of them with a delrin Cherry Vape Cloudchaser.
I can't say for certain, but why wouldn't they?
I've only used the 0.15 nickle coils with TC. I've heard the 0.5 ohm SS coils don't like wattages over 50 watts (I vape at 30 - 40 watts). Maybe the SS coils need a lower joule setting in TC.
$2-$3 depending on where you get them.

I usually set my TC vape at 420F and I set the wattage at whatever produces a vape I like. I seldom go over 300F to 350F to get a vape that I like. I'm usually at something under 20W on TC and 12W vaping in power mode.
Does high wattage enhance TC without creating a lot of heat? After all, TC top stops the vape temp. Why vape at high power in TC? Just curious.

It is a matter of personal style.
I will set my watts at maximum, say 200w, and then just let TC do its job. I never see 200w though, what I see is maybe 70w for a few milliseconds of preheat and then it levels out around 30w to maintain the temperature setpoint.
Just because you set the watts high doesnt mean the mod will use all of that wattage, it will only use what it needs to get up to, and then maintain, temperature.
In the end, how many watts gets used is a function of how much coil mass you are heating up.
So do you now if I am able to run the crown 1 ss coils in tc?
I dont have a Crown 1 but here is what I have read about them:
"Hey guys. I've been noticing a trend amongst new vapers with the Uwell Crown. They think that because the regular coils are stainless steel that it should be used with TC. While this is true, the coil heads on the Uwell Crown have stainless steel coils with nickel legs, meaning that because two different metals are used TC isn't an option. The mod wouldn't be able to read the temperature change well and would mess up. The coils are best used in regular power mode, and I've had no problems doing such.
SS coils on Uwell Crown are made for power mode, not TC.
EDIT: Seems like TCR on a DNA200 and Evic VT mini for 304SS works fine."
Gotcha, thanks I appreciate it. Just worried to used my valaryian and sub ohm now cause I don’t want it to go past 450 degrees lol .
Thanks for that tidbit.
Not sure how clear I had been before. I'd only used the 0.15 nickle coils in TC. I had used the other coils (SS) in power mode. I didn't know the SS Crown 1 coils had nickle legs.
Chain vaping will cause the whole thing to get warm, which will increase the somewhat likelihood of the coil getting too hot (more if it's already close). But the coil will get quite hot on the first drag and fall in temperature between every one.
If you use TC, it will correct for getting too hot. Without TC, well not tasting burnt doesn't mean for sure there are no nasties being generated, but it helps. If you let go of fire every time it starts to get a bit dry and harsh, it doesn't really matter if that's all in one session or spread out, it won't have been pushed way too hard because you made sure it wasn't. Better still, learn where the critical point is and stop sooner, or turn it down a bit. Actually, my experience is if you push the limits too hard, it will reach the point of tasting burnt prematurely.
I can't see that being a problem. For the most part it's equivalent to a coil with no legs. The nickel is considered non-resistance wire and doesn't produce much heat. If somehow it did heat up, the resistance would increase in greater proportion, but considering they shouldn't heat up, the only problem is it still probably wouldn't engage TC.
I'd be more worried about drop-in coils without non-resistance leads, if there are any. It is essential to the way most coil heads are built, and an important part of modern "vertical" (chimney) coil designs as well.

Non-DNA mods, I meant to say. Non TC mods don't do temp well at all...
Sorry bout that.

Correct. Nichrome, like Kanthal, has an almost negligible change of resistance with temperature.
