Recently I got a free sample of Nichrome 80 24awg at a local vape shop. Guy just gave me some to try out. He told me to just add a couple wraps to how I would normally build and I should taste a difference.
So I did just that, although I use the Steam web app to approximate my builds beforehand, and an ohm meter to verify my builds, (as should you). I like to vape between .2 & .3 ohms.
I had heard that Nichrome leaves a funny taste and was apprehensive, but after the first build I couldn't discern any "funny taste", just more flavor than the equivalent build in kanthal.
So I've been building all my attys with Nichrome and enjoying the added flavor that comes with the extra surface area. Until today.
Decided I would rebuild my Veritas with some 26awg kanthal.... Bad idea. I can't even taste my juice. I'm ruint I tell ya, ruint.
Really sucks too because I am lazy and my fingers were not made for building attys.
Dammit Jim.
