Most advanced vapers will agree that Titanium coils generate the best flavor out of any other coils on the market. But this is an advanced material that should only be used with Temperature Control. If you’re looking for the pinnacle of coil wire technology then Titanium wire is definitely for you.
What are vape coils made of?
Jun 10, 2016 · Titanium. 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.
Which vape coils are best for temperature control?
Jan 30, 2018 · The only reason to use Ti is for temp control, and TC is especially useful for drippers. RDA wicking is much more forgiving of lazy wicking jobs because you don't have to worry about leaking. That means a higher propensity towards dry hits, which TC helps prevent. That said, I'd still coil with SS316L. Coastal Cowboy, Jan 29, 2018 #4 Like x 2

Why do vapers prefer titanium wire?
Materials used in the construction of vape coils include Kanthal, Nichrome, Stainless steel, Nickel, and Titanium. There are, of course, other options, but these are by far the most popular. Each of these materials have their own properties and are compatible with either Power Mode, Temperature Control Mode, or both.

I consider to try titanium wire for my coils , but I wonder how safe they are VS. SS316 ?

So long as you don't dry burn them you shouldn't reach a temperature you would need to worry about with it. That said, why choose that over SS?

The fundamental truth is we aren't sure. You can be "safer" by not dry burning your titanium coils. Is it safer than SS? My "guess" is probably not. Lots of people use it though, but as to long term effects, we just don't know yet.

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.

I tried one factory build Titanium coil that came with a tank / mod for TC. Used it for a couple of days, I didn't find it to be substantially different from a SS coil. So I stick with SS because with no additional apparent benefit why bother
What is the cheapest wire for vaping?
The workhorse of the vaping world, Kanthal wire is the cheapest to produce and delivers the best cost to performance ratio of any material on the market. Don’t be fooled by the affordable price though, because this wire definitely gets the job done.
What is the highest performing coil wire?
Titanium. The highest performing coil wires of all are made with Titanium. The reason being, TI wire heats up fast, and cools down quickly which is crucial when testing a new coil build. Waiting for other coil wires to cool down is annoying and time consuming.
Is nickel a good metal?
Nickel is one of the few metals that has zero resistance, making it extremely sensitive to electrical charges. This can be a great thing, but also a terrible thing. Nickel poisoning is a very real and dangerous issue and if you use these coils without a good Temperature Control system to regulate max temp, you could end up in the hospital. ...
Which wire has the fastest firing speed?
Nickel wire coils have, hands down, the fastest firing speed out of any wire material. Nickel is one of the few metals that has zero resistance, making it extremely sensitive to electrical charges.
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.
What is the best material for sub ohm coils?
When you’re shopping for sub-ohm tank coils, kanthal and stainless steel are the materials you’re most likely to see. Compared to kan thal, stainless steel has a slightly lower resistance and a slightly faster ramp-up time for a given wire gauge.
Why is temperature control important in vaping?
The main purpose of temperature control vaping is that it helps you avoid dry hits. Well, you can also do that yourself by vaping at a reasonable wattage and remembering to refill your tank. In that sense, temperature control vaping is an interesting gimmick, but it’s completely unnecessary for most people.
Is nichrome better than Kanthal?
The primary quality of nichrome that makes it attractive for vaping is the fact that, for a given gauge of wire, nichrome has a lower resistance than kanthal. That means it’ll operate at a higher wattage, and it also means it’ll heat up more quickly than a similar kanthal coil.
What is nichrome used for?
Like kanthal, nichrome is used for heating elements in a wide variety of products, such as hair dryers, toasters and space heaters. Nichrome is also common in kilns used to fire pottery.
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.
What is surgical stainless steel?
The most common "surgical steels" are 316 stainless and 440 and 420 stainless steels. There is no formal definition on what constitutes a "surgical stainless steel", so product manufacturers apply the term to refer to any grade of corrosion resistant steel. If you're thinking 316 SS, usually Chromium and Nickel are involved 316 stainless steel, also referred to as "Marine Grade Stainless Steel", is a chromium, nickel, molybdenum alloy of steel. 440 SS and 420 SS, also called "Cutlery Stainless Steel", are high carbon steels alloyed with chromium.#N#Titanium, however, is something being looked at.. But its resistance is fairly low, I do believe, and would take a temp controlled chip to work good. I believe there is such a chip coming out (GG? I think?)
