seeing as I make my own clapton wires and have carpal tunnel (which doesn't help with some of the fiddly stuff) I'd go for 26/32 nichrome if you would like a faster ramp up and an easy to use wire. Should give you 0.32-0.33 ohm with 3mm x5 wraps. Kanthal would be 0.4?? a pair for the same.
Either are going to be easy enough to get hold of too.

hi, apparently it's a fairly common problem.
Have you tried cleaning the 510 threads, both mod and tank? Use a cotton bud dipped in rubbing alcohol to make sure that there is no accumulated pocket grime or old juice.

today I am mostly vaping........a 90vg mix of Red Astaire & blackberry.

sorry buggritt , a lack of information let our imagination run wild. What atomizer are you using? Does it have a factory coil  or are you coiling it yourself?
to be honest, I think that a 1 ohm coil is too high a resistance, is it actually a TC coil or a 'stainless coil'.  0.2-0.5ohms is fairly typical of a coil meant for TC.

Anyway temperature control can be a swine, stainless steel doesn't help as it has very little resistance change for the board to monitor.
Main issues that can affect TC are poor connection due to dirty or loose contacts, clean the 510 pin and mod with isopropal alcohol or similar.
And setting/locking the base (cold) resistance with the coil or tank already warmed up or hot. It just gives a false reading that can mean its 40-50 degrees out for a 0.1ohm difference. Obviously using more power overfiring and getting tad warm ......or not.

It would be a tricky one to wick thats for sure.

Exactly how it works out,  No voltage boost in TC direct battery voltage @ 4.2v max.
I dunno but I assume that the extended power profile applies to all TC materials? VapingBad ??

I stick to a resistance range of 0.15-0.5 with stainless, for me that covers most dual parallels and single coils with most of the power available. No isssues with DNA200s but so far my DNA75 seems to go directly to sag city when asked to TC above 35w.
