You are shooting for the same target resistances that you are with a single-coil: 0.15 – 0.25ohms, and again keep it under.4ohms at a maximum. My ideal dual coil Ti set-up is a 10-wrap with 26-gauge wire and a 3mm inner diameter. Just like the single coils, you want to wrap them nice and tight, not spaced.
Are titanium coils good?
In addition to being lightweight, titanium coils are more resilient to fatigue, which means they are more durable and have a longer lifespan. Another great thing about titanium is that, unlike stainless steel, it doesn't rust and will retain its lustrous look for years to come.

How long to let a coil soak before vaping?
around 5-10 minutesIt's always recommended to leave your coil to prime for as long as possible - anywhere between 5-30 minutes. The longer you leave it the better, but most coils should be ready to vape after around 5-10 minutes.
What is the safest coil for vaping?
in stainless steel. Chromium (Cr) undergoes passivation by oxygen present in the air. During this process a very thin layer of chromium(III) oxide is formed. It is widely known that chromium(III) compounds are recognised as safe.
Is titanium safe to smoke out of?
Titanium can handle very high heat. It is as strong as steel but much lighter. It appears that titanium is safe to use for smoking weed, and it is quite popular because of its durability.
What is the best coil wire for vaping?
Best Wire Type for VapingKanthal – As one of the most widely available types of coil wire, Kanthal is extremely popular. ... Stainless Steel – In contrast to Kanthal, using stainless steel provides a very quick ramp time. ... Titanium – This is one of the least used of the four that we have covered.More items...•
How do you break in a new coil?
Here is how to make coils last longer by breaking them in gradually:When you start vaping, set the wattage to the lowest recommended setting.Take a few short vapes to slowly start to break in the coil.Increase the power by 5 watts.Take three normal vapes and increase power by 5 watts.More items...•
How long should I wait between vape hits?
15 to 30 secondsDon't Chain Vape You must let your wicks saturate to reduce the possibility of a dry hit. The general rule is to wait 15 to 30 seconds before puffing again. For people who are trying to quit smoking, 30 seconds can be a long wait. In this case, you can buy e-juice with a higher nicotine level.
Why is my coil burning after 1 day?
Ensure Your Tank Is Properly Filled While this might seem obvious, the first port of call when your coil is burning is to ensure that it is properly saturated with e-liquid. Allowing your tank to run on empty while still vaping will inevitably cause dry burn, which can permanently damage the coil.
What is the best vape coil for flavor?
The best ones to go for flavour wise are clapton, titanium (if you prefer vaping with TC mode) or an Alien coil. The sweet spot for getting a balance of vapour and flavour is around 0.3ohms. Depending on your coil choice you'll want to up the wattage from anywhere between 50 and 100 watts.
Should you dry burn coils?
Nickel coils are used for temperature control vaping, so dry burning is much less likely to happen, but there is still the potential for oxides to develop if you do dry burn and your coils reach temperatures above 400°C (although this is higher than most TC devices will allow).
What vape wire gives the best flavor?
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. Many vapers also swear that stainless steel produces better flavor than kanthal. Stainless steel wire contains nickel so those with a nickel allergy should avoid using it.
Single Coil
I really prefer 24-gauge wire for single coils. I also prefer to wrap coils with a 3mm inner diameter. They are easier to build that way, and give lots of space for wicking and a bit of extra surface area. For the best compatibility across devices, I tend to prefer a target resistance of .15ohms – .25ohms.
Dual Coils
I prefer 26-gauge wire for dual coils. It has a higher resistance per inch than 24-gauge, and it’s easier to hit the target resistance across the two coils. You are shooting for the same target resistances that you are with a single-coil: 0.15 – 0.25ohms, and again keep it under .4ohms at a maximum.
Calibrating your device
Before you start vaping on your new Ti coils, you need to calibrate your device. Let your coil cool back down to room temperature. Five to ten minutes should be plenty of time to let them cool. Screw-in your RDA and lock in the atomizer resistance (older DNA40 devices do not have an atomizer lock feature.

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.

I use titanium on a sx mini s class (without TC) and I have no oxide formation in use.

In titanium, The lowest grade is the purest and the highest are alloy.
Is titanium oxide soluble in the body?
My understanding was that titanium oxides are not soluble and that the body has issues getting rid of those types of particles. It leads to the lung being overburdeneded and possible physical damage.
Is it safe to dry burn coils?
It is said to be safe if you don't dry burn coils, but yeah, with a dripper and an accidental dry hit? That might give off enough "byproduct" to not be so safe, generally. Since SS wire is generally considered safer in TC vaping and can withstand higher heat without causing problems, well, I'd probably start with that unless you are dead set to try and use it for flavor or something.
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.
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.
