Premade coils

[tsoko]

Hi

I bought these, do you have to use tc with them?

Authentic Kanthal A1 Nichrome Pre-Coiled Wires for Rebuildable Atomizers (50-Pack)

1.5ohm / 0.3mm dia. / 20*30mm leads ↓ details & specifications

[Postmodern Smoking]

Kanthal A1 is a FeCrAl alloy .... nichrome is a NiCr alloy (i.e. different material)
Both tend to be used for non TC purposes

[pipeman01]

These are NOT TC coils.... regular Kanthal coils like any others

Trouble is they are very black do not look like normal kanthal

[Postmodern Smoking]

As the 'specification' appears incorrect (i.e. if single plain coils they cannot be both Kanthal A1 and nichrome).... maybe they're actually just nichrome.
But I'm not sure though on the colour difference between the two metals.

That's what confused me the description, how can they be kanthal and nichrome, could be the translation from Chinese to English

Treat them with care if you intend to use them. I suggest you do not heat them to *glowing bright* temperature, as the alloy is unknown. Otherwise, use as Kanthal.

They are Kanthal coils with no resistance Nichrome legs (to avoid burning gromets) so are NON TC.

Thanks for the info.

Anyone want these coils? I think there is about 80 of them.

Don't know if Pepperty might be interested tsoko . . . . or @spikeyfridge, both ladies do use ready coils like myself.

I can barely see to thread anything through those you have . . . . . .

OK I think I might place another free ad for then sometime this week.
