  1. For the past few days my mod has been switching to power mode when using NiFe 30 

    Not particularly a worry given the material however it has ruined cotton. 

    just recently the profile decided to use 199w as it's starting wattage before switching to the 85 I have it set for

    for some reason the following steps work as a work around

    • switch to a titanium profile
    • fire in temp for titanium
    • return to NiFe 
    • when coils are cool lock ohms
    I decided to reset my device and remake the profile so we will see how that fairs. 

    Device is a tuglyfe

    attached is previous profile

    I need some help hear. I am not new to temp control. but I keep getting burnt cotton. I am using 24 guage nickle sigle coild, in a plume on the wismec. Right now I ahave 3.5mm wraped 8 times ohm 0.06, 75 watts 415 degrees. Dry burn is fine, but as soon as juice hits it, burn and burn taste. I have tried different sizes .2.5, 3 mm no luck. any ideas?



    You might blacken cotton but you should NEVER burn with nickle, run it without a top cap until dry and make sure you're not getting a glow or fire. 

    Use higher gauge wire if you can, its just a requirement of ni200 (if it's too much to work with I recommend going with TI GR1 or 01 ).

    Make sure your wraps are as identical as possible (you won't get away with 10left 9right)

    Double check your starting wattage (by default it's 200 and this can cause problems).

    Also keep your coils clean (this is very important with temp wire)  
  3. I've tried ni200, making claptons was essentially required for vapor production, often older coils would hve to be all but submerged to fire.

    Currettly using Ti01, even coil sizing is an absolute must, much lower guages available for builds, now addicted to claption build. dirty coils can end up with the near submerged reuquirement, verry little flavor interference. 

    I have some Nife30 from the UK (stealth vape) sofar it feels good like Ti, and the building was easy enough. I will say the break in time was a bit of a downside.

    not sure about stainless I've heard some rather damning talk about flavor.

    The Sweet Spot Vapors TCR isn't for pure titanium - I believe its some sort of alloy. I'd try a TCR from steam engine (http://www.steam-engine.org/wirewiz.asp#)

    I just got this from there which may be a little better for you. You can download it for yourself or copy and paste the following and save as a csv to upload.

    "Temperature (degF)","Electrical Resistivity"
    -58,0.6118951675
    68,1
    212,1.2923387095
    302,1.475302419
    392,1.6631804436

    I was using this before and still got terrible results
  5. So i nabbed the sweet vapors TC curve (and logo) but im using some amazon Ti wire. 

    It just hasn't worked in TC mode.

    After 1 day my first build was no longer reading a temp, my second build essentially wouldn't turn blue and when i tested it dry in temp mode it fired blue. 

    sources for my curves:
    http://www.sweetspotvapors.com/category_s/1856.htm

    is it possible that this amazon Ti wire (linked bellow) is just a bad batch from a shifty retailer, am I using the wire wrong? ( i was told to turn it blue then vape on it), should I go with sweet spot or another more reliable coil maker. 

    side note my DNA 200 also seems to think its 81f in my room, its maybe 69f at best. not sure if that contributes.

    Amazon wire:

    WHAT I WAS DOING WRONG (THIS IS A WARNING TO ALL FELLOW NOOBS)

    1 wraps must be perfectly even

    2 must be sure that you haven't pinched the wire (for temp control this seems to be a universal must)

    3 when building claptons remember the wire will slide around so make extra as to avoid accidentally claptoning the outer material rather than the inner).

  6. made some twisted 26g Titanium wire 8 wraps either side (16 since it was two wires) and for some reason the temp mode doesn't even try to calculate resistance

    that said 30g nickle with 38g nichrome works fine.

    I made sure they turned blue before using them, all the connections where tight and for about a night it seemed to be working (no dry hits) but when I had a dry hit I did a hard reset tried it coils again and managed to light my cotton on fire. 

    Switched to a week old nickle build and everything worked like you would expect
