All you 28 awg lovers

[Spydro]

Kanthal 28 A1 was the first gauge I built with nearly 3 years ago... what was recommended by someone when I first started vaping. Worked fine in my first gear, but I don't use it much now.

One of my favorite builds is high center parallel in atty's that allow them with all air intakes wide open for my DLH's. Parallels using same gauge and mixed gauge, ribbon, twisted, etc. I have all the KA1 gauges from 34-22, a couple of Ni80, several ribbon but no SS or Ti yet. I do some dual parallel horizontal builds in atty's that can't do the high center.

Awesome @Spydro

I would like to hear from you your experience of Ni80 versus Kanthal
And what gauge of Ni80 have you tried?

What atty is that @Viper_SA

The first pic was my Viper. The 2nd pic is an old Derringer.

I have 26 & 28 Ni80 right now (use the 26 more than the 28). Ni80 has less resistance per inch than KA1, so more wire in contact with wicks on the same net ohm value coil. It ramps faster, has lower power loss that is a plus for builds requiring longer tails (like high center parallel, etc).

Thanks @Spydro, sounds like a winner wire to me
