Stainless steel

[spitzer26]

So i got his stainless steel wire . Its my first using this so i build on it single coil but the resistance jumping higher while i pulse the ....... . Is that normal ? All screws are tight and everything . Im using mutation v3 rda on a ipv3li .. please help

this is normal, what you are seeing is the "TCR curve"
Wires that can be used for temp control (SS, Ni, Ti etc....) all have the same characteristic, of resistance increasing (at a measurable rate) as the coils temperature increases. This is how TC mods work, they measure the change in resistance, since that is a known, steady increase in amount of increase per degree of temp.

Im just worried my mod breaks.

nope, all is fine. What you are seeing is normal.
All that means is your mod measures resistance in real time....a good thing, as it means the wattage regulation is more accurate and adjusting throughout the vape

just noticed you are using a temp control mod....ALL TC mods measure resistance "live"
(don't think all of them display it live though)

Great ! Thanks a lot

Should be OK. If you use in in TC mode, let it get room temp and lock the resistance.

But my ipv3 li only has TC for Nickel and Titanium ..

Then use it in power mode. A little resistance variance is normal like that.

some mods will still work with SS wire in Ti mode....but the displayed temp will be off....you will need to set the temp lower then expected by around 80 degrees or so. Worth giving it a shot, but like mentioned above, make sure the coil is at room temp when you do so, or the temps will be WAY off
