Ssocc SS with pink ring .5????

[Maria S.]

I have heard a lot about these new coils. Well I know the top box nano platinum has a SS setting for those coils. Well I have the top box nano 60W, I had heard that I can use the coil on my TC No setting.... is that true? They are SSOCC with the pink ring and they are .5
I have just the Ni .15, which I want a higher sub ohm but I don't think Ni for top box nano 60W sell any other except the .15 but like I said someone said I can get the pink ring SSOCC and just put Ni setting on. So please some one help me out with this... Thanks so much

pink should indicate SS wire for the coil itself (should have SS on the coil head) - you would want to set that in SS TC mode

my personal experience is that SS (stainless steel) wire is a much cleaner vape, flavor wise - and those can actually be used in TC (SS) mode or in power mode

Hi @Maria S. It's a bit "misleading" when Kanger uses "SSOCC" as its model number.... (The SSOCC really just means Stainless Steel housing)

There are four basic types of SSOCCs

Red insulator - normal Nichrome - 0.15, 0.5, 1.2 and 1.5Ω resistances. "NC" is stamped on the side of the coil housing
Black insulator - Clapton coil - 0.5Ω
Blue insulator - Ni200 coil - 0.15Ω
Pink insulator - SS316L coil - 0.5Ω. "SS" is stamped on the side of the housing.

Where can I get them from? I can't find them anywhere? Top box nano 60W doesn't have SS setting but someone said I can still use in the Ni setting. Which I wouldn't try that unless I know for sure.

Can I use the SS316L on my topbox nano 60w in TC - Ni mode, there isn't a SS mode on the 60w nano only the platinum.

hrm - checked several of my go-to places and not seeing them - they list the nichrome .5ohms, but no ss... the nichrome .5ohm coil would also be a good option, but only usable in power mode, not TC

and i don't know that i would recommend using a ss coil in Ni TC setting - if it is a mod that allows you to adjust the TCR, that is an option, but topbox nano won't do that, I believe...

NO! Just run the SS316L in Power/Watts mode. ONLY run Ni coils in Ni mode.

Hai DC! Yeah, I don't think the SS316L coils are in stock yet - not anywhere I've found either.

Do you know where I can get them?

OK thanks you very much for your help: ) I appreciate it.

I thought you could start buying them March of this year. But I have been searching everywhere and I can't find them suckers. Thanks for your help, if you find them let me know please
Thanks Maria S.

I bought ss coils on Ebay for $9 something and free shipping, couldn't find locally, either. That was a 5 pack, found one place local that wanted $6 for one coil
