Atty' head identification?

[pedaldog]

In TEH KUBBERD I have the Smok Gimlet tank. I also have the Smok VCT that has interchangeable heads.
I have a few spare heads but the ones designed for the Gimlet are Ni-200, the others are Kanthal.
Problem is that the heads and the packaging dont have anything stamped or printed to tell which one is Ni200 or Kanthal, let alone any resistance markings.
I get the general idea that using a nickel head on wattage or a Kanthal on temperaturec mode could be a bad plan! Trouble is, they all look the same so How do I tell which us what? I can't do pic's just now so would appreciate any ideas, Ta.

What mods have you. I'm presuming you don't have an ohmmeter to check. If you have a TC mod then check them on that. And get the ohms. NI200 is usually 0.15ohms or less Kanthal is normally 0.4ohms and above though there may be some that are less.

Not sure with the smok coils, but other makes have blue seals etc

Cheers Syd'. I didn't actually think of doing that but have just checked and the one I Know to be ni is coming out at 0.26 and the one I Know to be Kanthal is 0.49 Seemples!

I'll have a look at some fresh 'uns when I Broach TEH KUBBERD in the morning and check if there's any colour differences too.
Cheers Glen.

I can't see anything useful stamped. Hospital still for 2 or 3 days so I'll have a nosey when I get home.
