You can all use A1 Ti wire for temp control and not even bother with the Ni discussion ^.^
Does A1 Ti work in the Sigelei? I only ask as in the instructions it just mentions Ni200, not titanium, and I know the D2 has seperate settings for titanium and Ni, so just worried the temp control would not work properly?
Hmm, ok, put it on the coil, and set it to a lower than normal to see what it really is kind of thing?Yep, think safest way to calibrate it would be with a Infared temperature reader (like for candy making / BBQ)
You can use TI on any mod that only has a setting for nickel. Just set it much lower - I run my TI coils around 310 on a Ni setting.
Ahhh fair enough, I like my vape quite cool ( at the moment with my throat and chest) so I would probably even use lower. That is good to hear it is not dangerous, I wonder why sigelei did not include a ti mode? Or will that be in the probably inevitable version 2, that I would also buy lol.I may run a TI coil at 525F on Ti mode but only 310-320 on Ni mode. I start low and turn it up, but that's usually where I end up with Ti on a Ni setting. It's not that it's dangerous, it's more that if it's too high it'll burn!
I get you now. I would probably have to write down a conversion chart to remember, I wonder why sigelei just chose nickel, and not both like the cheaper D2?IR thermometer is like this:

Fairly certain there are cheaper ones out there (or borrow/rent one for a day)
It will tell you the exact temp @ certain 'nickel temp' setting. Then adjust accordingly
I gotta ask, what is that? It looks like the standard 100/150, I know I am probably miles off lol, what setup you using in the RDA? And what IS that RDA? it is quite cool.All I can say is @ 20watts this rocks. Apple/Cherry. View attachment 27361
It's a 100w Sigelei with a Fast Tech 12.00 30mm dripper. Goliath I think it's called. Using 2 .22 coils. Need good lungs to use it. Almost no restrictive air flow. 20watts produces unreal clouds.I gotta ask, what is that? It looks like the standard 100/150, I know I am probably miles off lol, what setup you using in the RDA?

I think I may have to get one of these. At 20 watts? Thats insane, I remember my mini couldn't really power 26 properly, I think it might of had a problem from the beginning, I thought because it was low wattage it was normal, but now I mainly vape at about 40 watts, 50 max really, and realise you don't need silly amounts to produce a big cloud, and also it tastes much better, 17-22 watts a coil than 30 watts a coil (60 watts) as that just produced loads of vapour, but was so hot it didn't really create a nice flavour.It's a 100w Sigelei with a Fast Tech 12.00 30mm dripper.

I would say that this guy made a video about something he didn't know about. Not only ythat he owns a shop and says that you control the amount of vapor on the bottom of the ego he showed us. Really he should have said its a VV/VW not control the vapor. But seriously its the same all over opportunists getting in where they can. But on the Ni200 i remember not too long ago when people said nichrome was no good and now i use nothing but n80 but i just got the snow wolf and will be getting my ni200 tomorrow hopefully im not going to listen to all the BS on the Internet like some do. we do not push the heat enough to cause what most people say is the problem with it. I have learned to be careful what to believe when it comes to all this. I do know that the regular mods are now cheaper that TC is such a big thing. Thats something to be happy about. I would say wait until there is more solid info if your that worried about it. i on the other hand will be doing my own research. awesome community here i am new to the forums but have read them foir a while. thanks for all the people that put good info out there. remember that some might have reason to talk bad about certain devices, rdas, batteries, and all types of other stuff. Take what you are not sure about with a grain of saltCopied this video to post here for getting your opinion, so what do you all think about what he is saying?
I agree. I've been enjoying my horse and carriage and typewriter a lot lately... It's fine for me. Those cars and computers are scary.hmm got to be honest do as you see fit but i will never do Ni200 or ti coils. kanthal is fine for me. and after some research on Ni200 and ti sod that :S ppl pulsing Ni200 and using them on non temp control units and other horror storys. don't see the point in moving away from kanthal when it works fine
Sigh.....this is getting a bit out of hand with people spouting random crap they know nothing nor do they have masters or PhD in metals. We used to smoke, dip and chew stuff with 100+ chemicals. I know vaping is not 100% safe but it fulfills my nicotene needs, satisfies the blowing "smoke" I like and I feel 1000 times better than when I smoked. Shit nothing in life is totally safe. I say pick your poison and enjoy yourself because we all are on our way out, so act accordingly.
Ni has a different formula than Ti, so you would have to adjust the settings. saw the exact math on a Ti product forum post on fasttech
TC isn't necessarily BS, it's protection from cooking the piss of your wick / juice. Dual purpose for me, to build a real vapourizer for .. other things
Even if you short your coil and pop it we never come close to liquid metal that it takes to become toxic kanthal nicrome wire has a lower liquid temp and it's ok this is hoopla! Show me one test showing a mod even getting close to those Temps. It's like the fermaldahyde study let's keep the facts to around what we are doing, and stop with the scare tactics!I agree. I've been enjoying my horse and carriage and typewriter a lot lately... It's fine for me. Those cars and computers are scary.
You could always just not dry burn it, and make sure you use it on a temp control mod.

I think Big Tobacco has that covered.We need a Vaping Paranoia subforum.

So, if you use a juice with acids in it, the metals will leach, because there is a chemical reaction taking place...

ALSO: "Get a Cooking Pan, put about half an Inch of White Vinegar into the Pan, put an inverted Shot Glass in the middle of the Pan, Balance the Part on top of the Glass, and bring the Vinegar to the Boil ( DO THIS OUTSIDE, OR YOU COULD FACE LUNG DAMAGE AT LEAST, OR WORSE THE DIVORCE COURTS) put the Lid on the Pan, and Simmer for about 30 Mins, the Acid created by the Boiling strips the Nickel from the Brass. You might have to repeat the process a couple of Times, but it Works."
Acids and many chemicals used in flavorings will eat metals and guess where that metal goes? In a lab, these chemicals are normally used to strip metals, and this method is accelerated by heating up the chemicals. Most fruit and custard flavors (since everyone cried about Diacetyl) have acid's as the base molecule.
The reason they steamed the item was to remove the plating and not eat into the item itself.Ti won't leech because it forms a coating of titanium dioxide nearly instantly, which prevents it being in direct contact with liquid. This is why it's used for joint replacements. TiO2 is almost completely inert, and is considered GRAS. It's in lots of foods.
And in your experiment, acid isn't created by boiling. Vinegar IS acid, and in your experiment you're simply vaporizing it. It would be effective to just soak the item in the vinegar--the acid is already there, though vinegar is a pretty dilute acid.
