SS Coils and Replay

I want to model a Fralien coil build in wirewizard using ss for Replay. But my resistance range is too high for an all SS build.
Has anyone tried a SS/N80 coil build and have it work with DNA's Replay mode? They say this combo works but I don't know for sure how much of the coil might need to be SS. I've read 1 wire, but looking for some confirmation.

Anyone built a ss/mix coil and see if Replay would read it?

I haven't had the liberty to even install Escribe yet, not free to really pick the DNA75C apart until Monday :sad:

Edit: I have a lot of tinkering to do, man Can't Wait

You just got a 75c Therion, didn't you? Congrats :D

I've been tinkering in wire wizard.
If I set it up right, it says 36 SS / 4x.3 N80 / 36 SS / 40 SS – 3mm-7wrps = .6ish .

I think SS has a lower resistance than N80.
And I think 36g for frames is too small?
Edit: OH, you just said that o_O
Wouldn't a nichrome ss mix result in higher ohm than pure ss build. N80 is higher resistance than SS.
And yes ! That's what I'm after.
A dual coil build that finishes up around .3 in resistance and will work with Replay.

I use a lot of mixed builds in replay. I find as long as like 75% of the build is composed of a temp control compatibile metal , all is good. Granted, I do notice a much better performance with a pure normal temp control build. It’s like the temperature throttling seems way more precise and less sporadic, if that makes sense. At least that’s my two cents lol.

Thanks for the input :cheers:

The wire wizard will also give you a TCR value for mixed metal coils, use that number for a custom material or tcr mode or whatever it is. I have my first dna coming tomorrow so until then I’m not sure exactly how but I’m sure everyone else does

Cool. What DNA did ya get?
 
Now I have a very similar question, for SS316L/KA1 Clapton’s . Will that work for replay mode? Currently at work so I can’t find out until I get home later. Hoping it works. I know it says any combination of TC & non TC wire but just looking for a 2nd opinion/experience.

It’ll work with SS cores and ka1 wrap. Just read the ohms while while the coils cold. As long as there’s enough more SS than ka1, the dna should let you replay it.
