What is the difference between TCR and TFR?
For TCR the "TC in vaping range" is what you want to use for TCR. You have to do the math to get the decimal number you need. For TFR you just enter in the number for each temperature that it presents you on the 213 from the steam engine wire wizard. They tried to make it like how you program DNA devices.
What is TCR mode on vape?
May 23, 2016 · My Reuleaux RX200 and Vapor Flask Classic seem to use the same value for their TCR. My iPV5 uses a completely different value and I just got the Sigelei 213 and its also completely different. What I'm trying to do in this thread is create a simple guide on how to determine the correct TCR or TFR(if applicable) for all of the different chips in ...
How do I set the TFR value?
It is the basis of all temperature control vaping. Props to Evolv for coming up with that sorcery. A TFR (Temperature Factor of Resistance) is similar to TCR, but is based on actual observed measurements rather than pure mathematics.
Why do different vape coils have different TCR values?
Oct 02, 2019 · What is TFR or Temperature Factor of Resistance? Some materials may not follow a linear TCR completely accurately, so a TFR is based on observed resistance changes at a series of set temperatures that often follow a slight curve instead. Here’s an exaggerated image showing the difference.

Thank you for the info! I have two Sigelei 213s, and I'll be buying a few more.
What is temperature control vaping?
Temperature control vaping can be an amazing experience. It provides the security of consistency that wattage vaping often lacks. No one likes dry or burnt hits, or vapes that get too hot with long hits. TC vaping solves that.
What type of wire do you use for vaping?
Next, you must vape with the right wire type. TC vaping generally uses one of these four types of vape wires: Stainless steel: this wire is very popular and readily available. It comes in various grades such as 304, 316, 316L, 317, and 430 but the most common is SS316L. SS can be used in wattage or temperature control mode.
What is the best wire for vaping?
TC vaping generally uses one of these four types of vape wires: 1 Stainless steel: this wire is very popular and readily available. It comes in various grades such as 304, 316, 316L, 317, and 430 but the most common is SS316L. SS can be used in wattage or temperature control mode. 2 Nickel 200: commonly known as ni200, it was the first temperature control coil but it’s less common now due to some vapers having sensitivities to nickel. 3 Titanium Grade 1: otherwise known as Ti. It works well in TC but the user has to make sure it does not get overheated. 4 Nickel ferrous: also known as NiFe, comes in various grades such as 48, 30, 52, 70 and can be used in either mode, but is not widely available.
Can you adjust wattage on a vape mod?
Prior to TC, most top vape mods could only adjust watts (another innovation from Evolv a few years prior.) Now in 2020, like wattage control, temperature control is a feature found in most vape mods.
What does TCR mean in vaping?
Putting it simply, TCR denotes a number that identifies how the resistance of a material changes as the temperature fluctuates. When talking about vaping devices, the TCR refers to how the coil’s (material) resistance changes as the heat increases/decreases.
What is TCR mode?
To put it simply, the TCR mode allows you to adjust your mod to be as precise as possible, especially with the coils and materials that weren’t manufactured to work with your factory set mod. So, if you are experimenting with unique coils, use the TCR mode for safety purposes.
Why is TCR important?
Importance of TCR Mode. It is a known fact that not all materials (coil) respond the same when there is an increase in temperature. The type of alloy in coils is responsible for establishing the connection between resistance and potential heat.
