ribbon Kanthal...very nice stuff!!!
does not cut into your wick and more surface space for liquid to evaporate and therefore more flavor!

What's the ohms/inch on that stuff?

What's the ohms/inch on that stuff?

ok here is the answer including more if others ask

tradename : Kanthal DSD, (FeCrAl)
nominal composition : Cr 22%, Al 4.8%, Fe balance
made by : Kanthal, from Sweden, Europe

width & thickness : 0.020x0.004 in, (0.50x0.10 mm *¹)
resistance : 9.09 Ohm/ft, (29.8 Ohm/m *¹)
length : 10 ft, (+3 m) - 1 item, 1 coil *²

maximum temperature : 2370 ºF, (1300 ºC)
hardness : cold rolled, flattened wire
surface : shining, silver

So it looks to be the same as 32awg?

correct.

Just made a 3/4 wrap reading 1.2 ohm

here's a potential candidate, the circuit design is public domain. you could maybe change the MPH to IHY. it would be awesome to have the number act as a serial number for each individual device, but that might be highly impractical and cost prohibitive, but perhaps somebody can think of a fitting number or set of characters.

Along same line-it could be IHY-13, or whatever number is next for the number of LE's that have been made.

OOPS-sorry Fisty, posted this before I read your post. Great minds think alike.

Ordered 2 out for delivery today, And since i love wraping coils and making wicks i should be running 1 10 min after mailman walks away..

[the ob]

cyclin, I am so, so sorry. Obviously you can see, I love dogs

will post my TI pics later

Off to get a needle jammed into one of my vertebrae. Ill probably be out of it, but will post later. If I miss em, please someone snag me some new switches. Ill pay you back

love, the ob.

 

[emonty]

good luck Ob!!

Hopefully this isn't a stupid question, but what is DSD? I'm used to buying A-1 so I want to make sure all I have to do is "buy it now"

Are you saying very nice because you are using it?

no idea, look it up on Kanthal's website. what does A-1 mean? All I know is that it works great

yes ..............

I think this answer is probably good enough for me. Can't wait to try, seems interesting and makes sense why it would be good!

I am using it as well. I actually posted a picture a few days ago of my hell raiser coiled with it and it is vaping extremely well. I have a feeling in a few months almost everyone will be using this, possibly even exclusively. It's all I use now

Timmy suggested gold and green as well but I can't think of any feasible way of doing it.

picturing it in my head, i'm thinking black and silver or a deep blue and silver would be way more sleek. a lot of modern circuit boards are blue or black (or red, but just not seeing that)

Look what I just....acquired....had to get a new drip tip to mark the occasion

I saw that stacy, and liked it. I was just curious if Emonty was using it too. Sounds like a winner to me, sold to the American! Thanks guys.

Nice, that DT is perfect. Did you machine the skirt?

 

[Nurzrachit]

BTW Skud, I like your Tech Ihy Idea!
