I'm still using the fake NiFe52, I like the Invar36 as it has come to be known. Maybe my real stuff will show up soon.

Lol! Im still here
Currently running NiFe48 in three devices (Promoetey v3, Sofia v2 and merkava) with Ti in the rest. Still liking it muchly!
Im kind of amused that my half-assed suggestion it was Invar36 turned out to be true...lol!
I actually might get My NiFe52 (48) today.
Edit: It will be today, only ordered 50 meters of 26

I am sold on the nife30 0,32mm frop zivipf
I bought 10 meter to see what the fuzz was all about, and been using dual coil in my crius ever since. Before that I was using dual titanium coils. But I just like it more. I gave a small sample of the wire to a guy who bought my bellus and he also instantly ordered some nife30. He wasn't all to keen of TC vaping, untill he tried the nife30
Now i just need to get the orders of SS wire in my mailbox to give it a good comparison

@TheotherSteveS Well I did what you said with the real NiFe48 6 wraps 2.5mm 26awg. I heated it at 12w and strummed it till it glowed from inside out. I am now running it at TCR.00405 400F 16J and I am totally amazed at how good it is. Holding temp better then Ti seems to have a smoother taste but very good. I am going to change some more of my attys today. This might be the wire of the future. builds like Kanthal but works like Ti or Ni. I was a little apprehensive at first but now I am just amazed can't put it down. Nice part about having more then 1 SXM I can compare them one with Ti and one with NiFe48 both in STM's running both at same temp takes slightly more power to maintaing temp with the NiFe but fantastic.
I've been playing around with my settings because I thought the flavor was dropping off a little. Got it perfect for me now but I'm not sure what I should have the compensate temp set at. We keep our house at 72F so I set it at 22C. My new settings that really hit the spot are 420F 18J Powerful mode and tastes really good. My coil now after 2 tanks is running .200ohms
The increase in resistance on an SX device has little to no significance.
Unlike the Evolv DNA devices, the SX does not "refine" or adjust coil resistance.
Thus, the increase in resistance (assumption) was the consequence of a hotter atty since initially sync. The rule (for both platforms) remains sync (SX) or place atty on to the mod (DNA) at room temperature, aka only read "cold ohms".
Otherwise your vape will change according to the 'erroneous' data.
If the resistance went down (assumption) that would indicate that your initial reading was wrong, though more likely that the coil has stabilized. Once again, read this new value at room temperature ONLY.
It should be here in an hour or so, my mail comes late here. I'm at the end of the line, Mexico just to the south and the Pacific just to the west. Like 2 miles south and 7 blocks west.
It arrived.

OK what type of coil are you planning? I've noticed that mine if I use it too much too often I kind of get a muted flavor. May just be me. I am on my 3rd tank through it. Was thinking of trying an 8wrap 2.5 coil same as I use with Kanthal.
well just got home from work. on one call, i had to pull a dead cat out from this lady's furnace. it got stuck in the blower housing underneath the heat exchanger, spinning round and round........lol. anyways gonna try a twisted dual 26g nife48 in this new sapor rda i got from FT. will post pics etc. in a few. @2legsshrt glad to hear youre likin your nife as well.
EDIT...... i better add this.... i own 5 cats and love all critters, please dont think im sadistic for laughing at a mummified cat rolling around in a furnace blower.

Well I'm not sure I'm as buzzed about it as you guys are. Seems to be getting kinda muted to me. Definately takes more heat and power after it get broken in. Not sure if I should try a different coil or what. I just use single coils and I'm using a 6wrap 2.5mm 26awg. I'm on 420F 18J STM
I haven't any immediate plans for mine, I may experiment a bit with it in my "test" atty (Magma). But my feelings towards it is this: aside from having to use more wraps or larger coils like with Ni200 I feel tha ALL 26 gauge wire is all the same. Especially in regards to the physical shape of the coil that I build with it. Ti seems best for temp accuracy and still have decent ohms with respect to coil size. Ti though has it's safety issues when not used properly and is time consuming to dry burn. This NiFe48 should be a good alternative to using Ti. (Ni200 is a PITA) Just thinking out load, not sure why I'm even posting this.
