Problem with SS back

I got away from using Stainless Steel coils before because they seemed to make me cough a lot. I really never figured out what the issue was but I could use the same setup and juice with Kanthal coils and I didn't have that issue. I gradually went back to using some Stainless coils and seemed to be doing okay when "Bam" it started happening again. I even started getting a heavy feeling in my chest. I rebuilt a couple of my tanks with Kanthal and I when I vaped them, I could tell an immediate difference in the feeling in my throat and absolutely no coughing. Does anyone else have a sensitivity to Stainless ? The heavy feeling in my chest is better but not completely gone but I think it will probably clear up after a few days if I stay with the Kanthal. I have eliminated by trial and error all the other variables that could be causing this issue and it is definitely the SS coils.

Interesting. Maybe try some wire from different places? Advanced Vape Supply is inexpensive enough give a trial run and their stuff is great.

I will probably just stick to kanthal for a while and see if I have any more problems. I am not unhappy with them but prefer to use TC in my squonker.

Once I started using SS316L I stopped using anything else and wish I could give the answer to the problem in a flash. At least with my builds and most of my TC factory coils. Still have many Kanthal coils but for my builds never use anything but SS316 now.
