i am running an interesting cable in a very tiny rba velocity deck that is attaining similar goals to my above build, maybe it will be easier to tackle, i'll post it up when i finish either tonight or tomorrow, its for the ability to hopefully chuck a few clouds in TC running full ni200, since the deck soooo tiny i am getting creative with keeping the ohm's legal
btw....i didn't mean to be misleading with a pic of my wife and son, wifey just bought me this chromebook for my bday when i joined the forum, she preloaded a few pics of her and that's all i had to choose from at the moment. i am not a pretty girl, much the opposite........ for now, you never know
as for twisted giving more flavor, i have no facts, but i simply run twisted everything because it take some wattage to get it preheated and doesn't burn it up in a flash. my daily vape is 4x 26ga SS straightened and loosely twisted by hand, all for in a SxS orientation. it's simple, quick and ohms on dual 7's are right where i want em at .11-.13. these need a good hit of power to ramp and it really creates some dense flavor. i feel the twisted is stronger, the slower ramp up allows for an increased temp and obviously it is "some" more surface area and if done loosely it allows for "some" wicking in the coils. I have awesome vapes with twisted. I started building a ways before i got online and research what folks were doing, and right or wrong, my first inclinations to twist was to simply have more mass of wire whilst keeping resistance where allowable for TC, i figure if i twist kanth and nickel.....then the power cant run (well won't) the kanth wire at all since the whole "path of least". so twisting allowed for heftier builds while using ni200. i say right or wrong, because it depends on the mod if it will even stay in TC with wire lie this, and even if it does, how accurate is it really? these days though, i just love me some SS316, twisting it is easy and manipulating the individual strands is effortless. it oess get springy after twist, but i run it quickly over a bunson burner type device before releasing its hold, not even close to red hot or anything, just enough where you can actually see the wraps tighten and pull close to each other. about three passes with the torch lengthwise and the twist is pretty locked in and a good 50% of the springy is gone. i have yet to ever use nichrome, but i have several spools on it's way from the commies
