Maybe we should buy together so we can split shipping? Can use my Aramex Global Shopper account, pretty cheap from China to RSA. Roughly 3 weeks.

I've been in the same boat for years buddy. The only solution is to either import or, like the gentlemen in this thread, buy massive kg spools. Also, with SS, one has to verify it's properly annealed and not 'raw' wire, or else it's basically unusable.

Any chance of getting Clove(flv)‽

Good. Now that you have finished testing, time to send me the wires to 'verify' your results. :rofl:

Oh no, don't get the wrong idea. Very much appreciate your input. And what you've been told is not all that off the mark. As wire, the Chinese vaping wire we get here are absolutely rubbish. They are just not so rubbish that they throw off TC by an intolerable margin in temperature. And in the...

Why are we trying to deal with hot spots? When vaping in TC so 200 to 250° c, in my experience whatever effects hotspots have are pretty negligible if not I'm detectable

They not bad to that degree. I manage very stable TC with Chinese wires. Even on quite a few non DNA/yihi mods.

Beggars can't be choosers. I have no access to local manufacturers of SS wire so Chinese vaping wire is all I got.

Enjoying my dual titanium twisted coils in my manta rta. The annealing made a huge difference. Without that it's impossible.

*falls over dead......R1.2k cheap????!!! Are we in hyperinflation already?? I suppose you're used to lab grade ones costing 10x. My no name brand one that goes up to 400 degrees C is pretty cheap. Only R250. :--P

I guess I could wire up an atty with like half a meter of my titanium wire and use a mod on low wattage to heat the wire slowly. hmmm....

No, my SS430 is from geekvape.

Oooph......there is no way I can catch that dull red colour by using a lighter or torch. The wire heats up way too fast.

@Timwis I didn't do any picking at all. That roll was the only Titanium wire I've ever come across in the country, and 28G was the only gauge there was. It is indeed too flimsy to work as straight wire coils. I bought it thinking I'd make twisted wire with it but the springyness made the...

I would try to anneal it myself but I have no clue what 'dull red' looks like. My SS430 is also springy af.
