So first off, I'm new here. I've been vaping over a year now. I use a Delta 2 (rba Deck) with an ipv4. I recently started using Titanium Wire and ordered some from someone on Etsy. It's grade 1 pure titanium wire, or at least advertised as such. It came in a roll with no label and instead of being a dark smooth color it's light gray, dull looking, and rough to the touch. Is this normal? The wire I used before was given to me by a fellow vaper and it looked and felt closer to Kanthal. There's no flaking or roughness when I've tried to scratch it or clean it with anything, but the look bothers me.

It may be titanium but it doesn't sound like it. The only way to truly be sure is to build a coil and check it. You also didn't buy it from a B&M or reputable online vendor so... buyer beware. Good luck and please post your results.
Welcome to the ECF, but:
Personally I wouldn't trust what (at this point) can only be classified as "mystery wire". It's not worth potentially vaping something sketchy and finding out when it tastes terrible.

It sounds as if you may have some titanium oxide on your wire, it's something to avoid, and definitely not something to inhale.

I used it and wrapped a .3 ohm coil. It responds the same way as the good stuff. When I pulsed it the layer came off and it looked as it should. It's almost like it's been pre heated
I read through it but because I'm new so I can't post or comment on the thread. I'm curious as to the fact that a lot of people have been posting to vape between 300 and 350 degrees. My comfort zone is around 450 to 490...
The iPV4 doesn't handle Ti wire without the update. I've got one too, but here there are issues with the firmware download so I'm waiting to see what happens there.
I was able to install the update the day it came out. It's worked perfectly fine for me.

Cool. I've seen 2 posts here so far about issues with it. They say their mod completely stopped working. Always possible it was just a loose nut on the end of a USB cable tough. I'll give it a try this weekend.
Studies also show that nutrasweet causes cancer in lab rats if they ingest a ton of it over a 5 year period.
I have ti wire from same place 28g works awesome also i'm using the Ipv4 witch at 1st had to keep temp lower. Now with the update the ti setting works great dong at 450 no problem and joules cranked up. My update took a few tries to get it to work but is awesome now 120w as well
