NiFe52 - Quick check

[davroz]

Looking to build dual coils for an Aromamiser. Is the link below supplying OK wire

http://www.vape-atomizer-mesh.com/products/NiFe52-Wire-.html

OR should I be buying http://www.stealthvape.co.uk/wire/NiFe30-wire

Completely new to NiFe so any help much appreciated

I think I type for all on here that you should go for the Stealthvape kit!!
Nife30 is the more recognised niffy wire I think. At least when I tried tc that was the stuff I used.

No TCR listed for the NiFe52 and it's very, very thin. I wouldn't use it.

I'd recommend NiFe48 (28-26g) from zivipf.com or NiFe30 (29-28g) from stealthvape.co.uk

I personally favour NiFe48, but both are good.

As danb says, more info around for NiFe30 from stealthvape, is what I am using at moment in 28g. The NiFe48 he links to has slightly higher resistance than the 30. Not enough info for that NiFe52 and as danb says that is very thin.

I'm with @danb on this, Stick with the known and trusted - I use the NiFe30 from @stealthvape - You can get all the TC info for it on steamengine too...

My NiFe48 arrived from them yesterday. 28 gauge, have only thrown a quick 8 wrap dual 3mm build in the Tsunami but it was very easy to work with - teensy bit more springy than NiFe30 I thought, but nothing at all to speak of. TC is very stable with it. Really nice, smooth, predictable, good range of adjustability, all that good stuff.
Much more testing required of course, just first impressions.

Excellent stuff guys, many thanks.

I'll kick off with NiFe 30 in 28g to start with, with a view to NiFe 48 when I get my feet under the table.

Cheers /bow/

What's the difference between NiFe and stainless steel?

 

[davroz]

The full answer is on this thread https://www.planetofthevapes.co.uk/...threads/tc-accuracy-and-wire-selection.87131/

TLDR - NiFe's resistance changes more when it is heated than stainless, so it makes for a more accurate temperature sensitive wire.

Personally I prefer NiFe to SS, but that's with my mod / tank / tastebuds .... you have to try it to find out
