I have been looking through the various threads here, and I have a question that I can not find the answers to.
Does anyone know what temperature that the liquid actual vaporizers at?
By no scientific means (yet) I'm estimating somewhere around 120C within this scope. But that's really more a best-guess at the moment for whatever it's worth.
That's close; proly needs around 150C to work efficiently. This might produce some fractional distillation effects though; a temp controlled coil might need to be set quite a bit higher to work properly.
However, when dry the coil will reach red-hot after a couple of seconds: circa 450C.
all you need is a way to heat the liquid
Wow, just tried that ichaya.... I'm still coughing. Harsh, very harsh, but huge vape. Course, maybe the resin in the pipe had something to do with it. So, I dripped on an analog and got flames, but no additional vapor. Maybe... nah, I think I'll hold onto my last brain cell.
Nice workbench. Nice video.
Let's hope your boss never gets a glimpse of that video
Just look up boiling points for the contents of your juice. Ive seen values from 180 C to 220 C for PG and 275 C for nicotine boiling points.
On this forum i want to say that i saw a post stating that the nichrome wire heats to 300 C.
Nicotine | World of Chemistry SummaryNicotine has a boiling point of 476°F (247°C).
nicotine: Definition from Answers.comAs shown by the physical data, free base nicotine will burn at a temperature below its boiling point, and its vapors will combust at 308 K (35 °C; 95 °F) in air despite a low vapor pressure. Because of this, most of the nicotine is burned when a cigarette is smoked; however, enough is inhaled to provide the desired effects.

NiCr wire has a melting point of 1400°C. I've melted several.
Yup...
Thanks q258! I knew it was possible. Temperatures are much more easily controlled using simple flame. Could keep acrolain(sp?) at bay.Thanks again for being a fearless pioneer and having the nerve to tell the world.
