should I use non-res wire with this build or not????

[CLOUDRIDER-323]

I've heard some people use it and some don't and some who do and don't for different rba builds im new to all of this so kind of need help. here is the build i purchased. $7.67 IGO-L Rebuildable Stainless Steel Dripping Atomizer - double heating wires / 1.6ohm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

im looking to get into sub ohm building but for now just want to practice any help would be thoroughly appreciated.

i never heard of NR wire in a dripper build before especially the igo. get some 30g(mid to low resistance) kanthal and good to go

I agree with Thrasher, I can't see how using non-resistance wire would be beneficial in the igo-l. I could be wrong - wouldn't be the first time...

You probably already know this, but if you are going the sub ohm route, make sure you do lots of research on battery safety and have a way to check resistance without firing.

awesome thanks. @Aglet yep my dad taught me air conditioning when i was younger so i have a multimetter im looking to get one of the little ones off of madvapes but they never have stock grrr lol.

i just dont understand the need of non res wire i have an octopus-alike dripper and the coils have non res leads so it kind of confused me.

About the only reason I can think of to use no resistance wire in a dripper is if you're doing a multi-coil build. By cutting identical length pieces of resistance wire and attaching it to no resistance wire, you can build coils that are the same resistance. The benefit of this would be more even heating of your coils. In a dual coil setup, for example, if one of your coils is lower in resistance than the other, the coil with lower resistance will draw more current. Usually the difference isn't really noticeable. But it's there. Hope this makes sense.
