Stainless wire build

mreeveshp · Jul 20, 2016

What's a good build for stainless wire (like what ohm build) and what's a good temperature. I will be running it on a tarot 200

.2 Ohms is preferable on Regulated mods to get the most out of your device and be in reasonable battery performance also.

I built a .25 for my first and it was just okay so I built a .2 for the second and it's still just okay, to me it seems like I'm getting flavor loss.

But the other problem is I finally wanted to be able to use temp control and even at 500 it took forever to ramp up and when it did it was like there was no power to it at all.

And since you said that would be good in a regulated how about my unregulated tube mod or my parallel box mod

If thats how your box is setup then its out of your control..maybe try a .4 or higher then if it takes a long time to ramp up...some boxes are limited in wattage in TC mode.

On a Unregulated Parallel Box I like a .08-.09 myself but I like my vape a bit hotter then some so I would shoot for .09-.1 and make sure your using batteries that can handle 20a+ please!!

I would think the vasopresso tarot 200 could handle it like my sigelei 150tc seems to be working fine but I can change the joules and temp where the tarot I can only change temp that I know of. But I also wonder if it's because it's SS317 and when you go to SS mods on the tarot it says 316 but I dont know the other types of wires like I do kanthal

If it helps it's using the mad rabbit low resistance wire with the silver label

.2 to .25

Perfecto!

Currently running SS parallel with kanthal clapton @.25 and it vapes like a dream..

Do you use spaced coils for SS cause I just tried again with one that is .13 ohms and at 450* it still wasn't working and even at 600* the highest temp still not getting any vapor and it's like it's not even trying to ramp up, but in wattage mode it vapes just fine

I just wonder since I don't know SS wire but mine is SS 317 and when you go to SS mods on the tarot it shows 316 but I wonder if that's just the symbol instead of SS the manual doesn't say you have to use SS 316

No I do microcoils, lots of people say spaced but I don't like them for simple builds, just make sure to rake and squeeze your SS microcoils because SS tends to have hotspots if you don't.

I love SS. I do 8 wraps on a 3 mm bit. I also use it in VW more and TC more. The flavor is really nice

I did just get the X cube mini and that thing is amazing in temp mode I'm running those same builds that my tarot wouldn't at 380* to 420* and it's ramping up and Vaping just fine

Does the Tarot have TCR mode? If so enter 0088 for your TCR(usually will come up as just 88, or could have 1 or 2 zeroes before it), and try again. SS316 and 317 have slightly different Temperature Coefficient Ranges so you need to adjust accordingly to get the vape you are looking for.

The Tarot has Ni for Ni chrome, 316 when in SS mode, and Ti for titanium and all you can do is change the temp. I tried a Ti build and in my X cube which you can change the TCR it worked wonderful but my Tarot was like garbage even at 600*, now all the reviews I'm seeing say temp mode is way underpowered in the Tarot. Which only means one thing...I GET TO GET ANOTHER NEW MOD!!! Haha

Ahhh the wonderful world of vaping and empty pockets thanks to Shinyitis hahahaha if you're looking for small and cheap the iStick Pico and the VTC Mini both do temp control wonderfully. I use TCR for 317 on both with amazing results.
