Because many times there is machine oil left on the wire and it can ruin the taste of the juice that you are vaping. Go ahead and give that wire a few rubs with some alcohol on a cotton ball, or if you have some, use one of those alcohol prep pads. Ok, so now we have clean, ready to wrap Ti wire, so let’s wrap some coils!

wonder what temp settings they were using, so far i have never seen any discoloration at 370 to 380 degrees F w/rayon....wish they would have expanded on their temp settings.....plus i never let my wick get dry nor have i seen any ignition of the wick.... (insert scratch yer head icon here)

Yup, I wouldn't use (pure) titanium on a mod w/o temperature regulation, but it works great on a DNA40. I've had the same coil on mine for a couple of months now, and I've vaped hundreds of ml though it with absolutely no change in the base resistance and no visible signs of oxide formation. I have the temperature limit set to 350F.
WickedBad Senior Member Verified Member ECF Veteran
I have been using TI since I got my DNA40. Never had a noticeable resistant changed and no fire. I have been dry firing and compressing coils and now I am thinking that is not a good idea. Anyone else dry firing? I am thinking when i make a wick change I should do a new coil so as not to dry burn to clean.
Rossum "Chump" Verified Member ECF Veteran
Temperature controlled dry-firing isn't a problem. Or you can turn off TC and use a very low wattage. I clean my coils by getting them up to operating temperature (or a bit more) and then using wet pipe-cleaner on them. However, I'm not vaping a very gunky juice either, so it's not like I have a huge accumulation of crud to begin with.

Wow...I forgot about the juice with titanium oxide in it (or whatever it's called) I think it was cuttwood? Unicorn milk right? It made it white as I remember. And yeah there was a big stink about that.

What is the danger of titanium wire?
A potentially controversial entry on our list is titanium wires. The source of this concern is the fact that when titanium is heated over 1130 degrees Fahrenheit, it releases titanium dioxide which is a very toxic substance. That being said, any properly functioning temperature control device wouldn’t get the wire anywhere close to the danger zone. People enjoy titanium wire because it’s durable and easy to work with, but facilitates a crisp flavor in the same way nickel does. Other than the toxicity concerns, the only real drawback of titanium wire is that it can be expensive as well as hard to find. It should also be noted that fires started with titanium wires are a bit harder to put out than other critical failure fires.
What wires are used for temperature control?
Stainless steel wires are probably the most versatile wires on the list because they’re the only ones that can function with both wattage and temperature control modes. The pros list of SS wires is long, given its strength and fast ramp-up time paired with a clean flavor and low price. But that being said it can be surprisingly difficult to find specific gauges of SS wire. Also, some types of these wires contain a high level of nickel, making them more difficult to re-wick with.
What is the best wire for vaping?
Stainless steel wire comes in a variety of grades but SS316L is medical and food grade and thus the most popular type used for vaping. Stainless steel wire heats up faster than kanthal or nichrome and that makes it the go-to wire for vapers seeking a quick and hard draw.
What is the easiest vape wire to build?
Vandy Vape wire is some of the easiest vape wire to build with. It’s effortless to shape and make coils with because it bends easily and stays in the shape that you build it to. Vandy Vape wire is super clean and it heats up evenly so the flavor that you get from your ejuice is always pure.
What is geekvape wire?

Coilology. Coilology have vape wire down to a science and they’ve got one of the biggest varieties of vape wire style. The flavor from their wire is superb, it’s durability is excellent and it’s as easy as it gets to build with.
Why is Kanthal wire used for vaping?
It’s the most common vape wire used for building because it’s inexpensive, widely available and resistant to oxidation. Kanthal has a slower ramp up time than stainless steel or ni80 wire and it’s arguably less flavorful than other types of vape wire.
Does titanium coil work with Kanthal?
Titanium will ramp up fast and cool down just as quickly which is why many vapers fell in love with it for temperature control. The flavor produced by titanium coils is outstanding and it is almost as easy to work with as Kanthal. As with Ni200 wire, many manufacturers are now turning to Titanium as one of their choices for pre-built temperature control coil systems, especially for those who are thought to have an aversion to those coils.
What is the guide to vaping?
Guide To Vaping is the largest online magazine blog that is dedicated to providing a vast selection of helpful and informative articles about the latest vaping news, vapor products, and CBD.
Is nickel wire good for ramp up time?
Nickel wire is an Olympic sprinter when it comes to ramp up time as it has almost zero resistance to electric current. It was previously used with Kanthal or NiChrome as it has a really bad habit of melting if you try to use it at high wattage. However, since temperature control was introduced Ni200 has become a mainstay in many companies pre-built coils as it is effective when used correctly.
Is titanium wire hard?
Having used titanium wire in chainmaille work, it is VERY springy and quite hard. I should imagine that you would have to torch it extensively to get it to hold shape.
Is stainless steel coil safe?
Everything I've been able to find indicates that stainless steel is at least as safe as any other wire you might use for coils, if not definitively safer. People are swearing by SS workability, durability and clean taste. From what I can gather, it's not all that great on energy efficiency though.
What is the best wire for vaping?
Nichrome. Another type of wire well suited for wattage vaping is Nichrome. Nichrome wire is an alloy composed of nickel and chromium, and may also contain other metals such as iron. Fun fact: nichrome has been used in dental work, such as fillings.
Can you vape with nichrome coils?
Again, take note that if you have (or suspect you may have) a nickel allergy, then you should not vape on nichrome coils, and maybe you should also avoid stainless steel. Kanthal has been the choice of most vapers for a longer time, due to its ease of use and higher resistance.
What is Kanthal wire?
Kanthal wire is a ferritic iron-chromium-aluminum alloy with good resistance to oxidation. It is commonly used for vaping in straight wattage mode. Kanthal is a great place to start if you are just getting into rebuilding, dripping, etc. It is easy to work with, yet stiff enough to hold its shape when formed into coils—which comes into play during the wicking process. It is extremely popular as a primary wire when building single-wire coils.
What are the characteristics of wire?
These are the diameter (or gauge) of the wire, its resistance, and the ramp time of different materials.
What is wire gauge?
Wire gauge. The first basic characteristic of any wire is the actual diameter of the wire. It is commonly called the wire “gauge” and expressed as a numerical value. The actual diameter for each wire isn’t really important. What matters is that as the wire gauge number increases, the wire diameter gets smaller.
What gauge wire is used for a single strand coil?
The actual diameter for each wire isn’t really important. What matters is that as the wire gauge number increases, the wire diameter gets smaller. For example, 26 gauge (or 26g) is thinner than 24 gauge but thicker than 28 gauge. Some of the most common gauges used for single-strand coil builds are 28, 26, and 24 , and thinner wire used in the exterior of Clapton coils is usually between 40 and 32 gauge. There are others of course, and even odd number gauges.
What is temperature control mod?
In basic terms, temperature control mods rely on a characteristic of your vaping wire to detect when to regulate the current and wattage delivered to the coil. Wires suitable for TC are chosen because of their Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR).
