Titanium wires

[Aal_]

The inventor of microcoils never talked about stuck coils but only closed coils Sad. And he never said anything about burning wires. But as he said, youtube boys did what they did lol

Yes microcoil meant coils with diameter between 1.3 and 1.65mm.

What Sad is referring to is now called contact coils. For me they are still the best performing coils

yes, I know aal. I am referring to contact coil too as you and Sad. Bad thought for several reasons. Anyway, it seems that everyone does what he thinks. Thats ok with me. But you already know my opinion

I know and respect it. A lot of people think like you and it's not wrong

Not much feedback a from GG-store grade 1 titanium wire. I use it since a wile and its a great wire! Working fine on both mechanical, power and temp controlled devices.

I didn't know you could make a contact coil with Ti. Resistance would be sub sub Ohms. Wouldn't it?.

 

[Troll from behind]

Sorry to ask things yet answered maybe many times, but if I would get into titanium busines what should I know and NOT do?

nothing special Troll, exept that you must not burn-torch it. Use it as all the other wires

Why?

Why what tchavei? That is such a vague question that could apply to anything.

 

[imeothanasis]

maybe tc is asking why titanium contact coils will give very low resistance.

Yaya, Titanium has lower resistance than SS, but you can make more threads on a contact coil to archive the same result. But same is happening with no contact coils, so there is no real difference

Thank you agapite .

I don't think it's vague...

"contact Ti coils will be sub sub ohm "

I ask why? A 7 wrap ti coil is around 0.4 ohm... Is that considered 'sub sub ohm'? Nickel has half the resistance of Ti so is nickel" sub sub sub sub ohm"?

Yes. Ti has lower resistance than kanthal but higher than nickel so I don't think ti is such a sub sub ohm material when compared to others.

With electronics no resistance is dangerous anyway. You can build a 0.05 ohm coil that is safer than a 2 ohm coil on a mechanical.

FWIW, I'm not a placebo responder, nor allergic to anything but heavy pollen/dust.

Just wanted to report that after using Kanthal A1 wire with no issues for years,
not quite as clear as mountain air, but no significant obstruction or tightness, I
tried Tempered Nickel 200 wire for TC, and after a couple of weeks I developed
irritation/pain in the chest that got me to the ER, worried about a possible cardiac
problem. That was negative, thankfully. And no "allergic" symptoms either, no
rash, no swelling. But there are cases of systemic allergic reactions, so who knows.

Since yesterday I've been trying 2 kinds of Grade 1 (allegedly) Titanium wire,
all these wires BTW are around 26-28 AWG, and I feel like the heaviness in
the chest I was feeling with Nickel is not there with Titanium. I'm going to drop
NIckel entirely for now.

No idea what's going on. I'm just reporting a personal experience.
It feels real enough for me to avoid vaping Nickel. If you feel tight in the
chest with Nickel, try Titanium, and decide. YMMV.

I was never very happy with the old nichrome atomizers, for many reasons,
but had nothing to compare to back then.

 

[imeothanasis]

Nickel is not suitable to vaping and to our body Fernand. Its only suitable to electronics. You did very well that retired nickel.

Hi Friends,
now we have the Titanium grade 1 wires too in our shop.

I used Titanium grade 2 from ESG. I have a mixed opinion; sometimes they work well, sometimes not. That's why I was hesitant about ordering Titanium grade I wire. The big problem is cleaning the coil. It is supposed not to burn it in order to remove the gunk. Then, how to clean them?! Please don't tell me "with a tooth brush"!

 

[imeothanasis]

cali, the burning option is not an option to clean the coil. Its like you telling me that the way to clean your casseroles is to dry burn them in the kitchen. The only you will manage to do is to destroy your health.

Just change the coil buddy

 

[calinbotez]

Of course that the perfect solution is changing the coil. But, with kanthal, I change coils every 2 weeks or so. I change the wicks every 4 days, for my style of vaping. If, after 4 days, when I change the wick I must change the coil also, it seems to me a little inconvenient. So, how can I clean a titanium coil?!
