DutchErt3 Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 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.htmis 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:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0161JUHEWWHAT I WAS DOING WRONG (THIS IS A WARNING TO ALL FELLOW NOOBS)1 wraps must be perfectly even2 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).

Russ ModCrate Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Titanium oxide is white maybe you have some bad connections somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 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"-58,0.611895167568,1212,1.2923387095302,1.475302419392,1.6631804436482,1.8465909088572,2.0247695849800,2.4511648743 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
