How does this vape? That wrap is cool looking!26/38 N80 twisted clapton, helixed 30g kanthol twisted/28 N80
What would happen if you did a ss core wrapped in kanthal, could you still run in TC?
I've heard that mentioned before. Am I missing something? It seems to me that if two conductive wires are both connected at both the positive and negative terminals of any device (vaping related or not), they would both carry current.
I guess my question really was more about the temp control aspect I guess I'll stick to Ti wrapped in either Ni or SS or a different combination but basically stuck to temp control wires for temp control and nichrome and kanthal for vv/vw thanks for the advice
Never tried before but I would think of the core was TC wire, then the wrap would need to be. Just need be able heat the wire to vaporize the juice. Should be fine with kanthal since it is thin enough.
I will order some 460 stainless today... not sure what guage I should get though... and do a fused clapton wrapped in 32 Guage kanthal and TC that and see what happens.
I loooooove gooooooooollld. Hah looks good! How does it vape?Third attempt at a staple coil. The first 2 were atrocious. I can't figure out why there isn't more definition to the staple effect. I used 8 pieces of 0.5x0.1 kanthal ribbon and wrapped it with 36g n80. Staged it with 26g kanthal.
Weird lighting made it all look gold for some reason.
Like a dream! The flavors are like listening to music through a good set of speakers - the nuances come through quite nicely.
Some are easy but this and the Alien Clapton variants are the ones my fumbling fingers hate trying to replicate...took me almost 2.5 Hours to make one of these damn coils:We few are so skilled as to make works of art from wire. Hard & Easy to do. I'm just poor, so I have too.
That looks like it was painful to build! Flatten all that wire and wrap it up. Kudos on all the work you put into that bad boy!!!Some are easy but this and the Alien Clapton variants are the ones my fumbling fingers hate trying to replicate...took me almost 2.5 Hours to make one of these damn coils:

Thats not Ribbon wire...Thats 5 Strands of Flattened 24g Kanthal as the Core
I dabble in hardware and script/batch edits for various boards, search my username on google and you'll see some of my work, The one thing that is easier is not needing a magnifying glass for soldering or seeing what goes wrongI know a Dude that makes Electronic Boards by hand. I have seen him do it. Way to painful for me.
I love it with a passion. Eyes don't see as well anymore. I am so grateful to live in this era. Every day I go Damn!I dabble in hardware and script/batch edits for various boards, search my username on google and you'll see some of my work, The one thing that is easier is not needing a magnifying glass for soldering or seeing what goes wrong
I rely on older model Dead-bolts/Chain Sliders and drive a 84 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham...I dont trust anything for security if it wasn't written, built or installed by me. One reason I dont use OnStar either...You really gotta have faith in those types of companies because with one click or scheduled event you could get remotely hi-jacked or worse...I also carry a Kimber Crimson Carry Ultra for better doorman protection but thats another storyThis is new. The lock people sent me this. The code for the door lock that was installed today will be active on 11/15/2015. Your lock may not function until that time. Please make sure other locks are in place until we up grade our security software.
30 years I never locked my ass out. My keys are like my glasses, always there. Once every 30 years is acceptable.I rely on older model Dead-bolts/Chain Sliders and drive a 84 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham...I dont trust anything for security if it wasn't written, built or installed by me.

If it's legal & don't piss me off.
I don't miss surface mount diode soldering. Nothing like targeting the leads on something the size of a pin head with an iron! Coil building is easier on the eyes and with these shaky hands!I love it with a passion. Eyes don't see as well anymore. I am so grateful to live in this era. Every day I go Damn!
Henry Ford, & everyone else would be blown away. I wake up in awe every fuckin' day. Then deal with it. Micro Soldering is a young persons skill.
Just got the heaven and hell rda it kicks major ass.
The Mini version of either is great also, and cheap
You want tc inner wire. To be safe I would use both but the inner wire is what your ohms will read on.
Nice. I can see you getting better each time.Had a second try at a fused clapton. This time with dual 26 gauge nichrome wrapped in 32 gauge kanthal. Took my time with this one. Used the nylon pliers and rolled the drill back slowly to get out the twist and flatten out the clapton. Had a couple stubborn twists I had to straighten it with two sets of pliers. Wrapped it at 2.5mm and it wrapped good and flat. Still need to work on keeping the wrap tight. So there are some gaps in the wrap... oh well.
This thing running at 75 watts had flavor for days and makes a solid dense cloud. VERY happy with this build.

Fancy photo time. Learning on the photo editing app on my phone.
Thanks! I'm working on it trying to do it right. Going to be build another of the same tonight for a buddy. Saw mine last night and asked me to throw one together for him. He's out of wrote waiting on new to arrive so I'm hooking him up.
I would start around 400/420 and go from there, all depends on your taste and what wire, I like my tc temp usually around 480/515
The 430 stainless I ordered in 28 gauge. So that will be my core wires. I will therm fuse with 32 gauge kanthal. I will start around 400 degrees and work my way up! Thanks for the insight!
When using SS if you don't have the option In your device for SS choose Ti as your coil and the rule of thumb and which I find to be pretty accurate is go 80degrees cooler than your normal temp also I've asked around and everyone has said to use all temp control wires if using in temp control because the core is what gets the power
I'm sorry I have a case of dyslexia apparently I thought you said the core was going to be 24g kanthal but I'd try instead of Clapton just twisting the SS because I did ask a few people and I'm just going by what they said stick to temp control wires but hey try it and let me know because I basically just asked about what you're trying to do with it.
