Coil types in TC MODE *please quick help*.(OSUB 80w Baby)

hi, i got a osub 80w baby, and when i put it on TC mod, it then asks me for coil types, i have the one preinstalled, which i guess is ni200 if im right? and when i choose ni200, i can only take like half a puff and it switchs to watt mode automatically, if i choose a different coil type tho, like SS or Ti, it works fine. what should i do? should i leave at coil type SS even tho its not ss.

Those coils are either Kanthal or Nichrome, neither are designed to work in TC

Your mod can do TC, but your coils cannot

You can leave it in whatever mode works, but Wattage mode is simpler. Your coils work in SS mode because your mod thinks the coils are staying cool, because your mod doesn't read the temperature correctly - it may think your coil stays at 70 degrees no matter how hot it gets, so it will never stop firing.

i dont think i have an option for Kanthal or NIchrome on my setting, its just ss, ti or ni.
thanks for the help

Kanthal and nichrome are meant to be used in Wattage/Power mode only, you're welcome, enjoy your vape

The best wire to do in TC mode that I have tried is Stainless Steel. I've tried both Titanium and Nickel as well. I've had a *really* bad experience with Titanium. I tried it once when a customer came in with it. (A friend of mine owns the local vape store up the street from me.) I got curious about the taste, so he gave me some to try on my RDA. My God was it awful! It left a metallic aftertaste that literally had me gagging. And I find Nickel very hard to build with because it goes stupidly low on the resistance unless you know how to work with it. I ended up giving away 70 feet of the stuff to a comp vaper I met a while back.

TC wire are Nickel and titanium. POWER MODE or VW are Kanthal and nichrome.

SS wire can be used for both TC and power modes.
