Twisted n80 and ss vv/vw mode

[redmatt76]

Hi all can i use twisted n80 and ss wire in vv/vw mode and could it be claptoned around kanthal and used in vv/vw mode?
Thanx.

Can't see why not on the twisting, both are capable of power mode so should be Ok ?

Trying to clapton with a twist maybe tricky (never tried).
Twisting tends to make wire strong & springy which would not lend itself easily to clapton.
Could be wrong though.

Just read that before hitting post. What a waste of a reply / post - waffle and no definitive answers - mibees aye, mibees naw . Sorry.

Thanx 4 reply. It does work.
2 strands .1 n80, 2 strands ss304 .1 twisted and wrapped around 26g kanthal. 8 wraps, 2mm id @ .39 ohms. Nice favour decent clouds @ 27watts in protank 4 on x cube mini.
