When choosing a coil type, we naturally have to evaluate it subjectively. Many people out there will say that Kanthal is better, or nichrome is better. Some even claim that Kanthal has a more "rounded" flavor, or nichrome has better flavor separation (layers).

From the experience of some vapers, the two don't have a significant difference and don't even improve the flavor at all. Their job is to heat, and as long as they do their job, the flavor will tend to be the same, plus these are the two most widely used heating elements in the world.

Choosing Kanthal and Nichrome Coils

Here are reasons you might choose Kanthal:

• You are allergic to nichrome
• You want to save money because Kanthal tends to be cheaper
• The nearest store only sells Kanthal

Conversely, you might choose Nichrome when:

• You want a low ohm
• You are not allergic to nichrome
• You want a faster ramp-up
• You can taste metal in Kanthal

About Nichrome Ramp-up

Although Nichrome has a faster ramp-up time (heats up faster, vaporizes faster), this does not mean it's better.

Everyone has a different drawing style, and for some, a ramp-up that is too fast can be startling and even cause coughing.

Some people prefer a slower ramp-up and a more relaxed draw.

Experiment with Kanthal and Nichrome Coils

Make 3 pairs of Kanthal and 3 pairs of nichrome, make a small mark on one pair. Shake them in a container and then install them. Can you tell the difference?

Of course, this method won't work for people who can already distinguish Kanthal and nichrome wire just by looking at it. You can also ask a friend to install them to help validate this experiment.

Conclusion

In conclusion, there is no significant difference between the two. No wire has a better flavor than the other, unless you are using the same target ohm.

Nichrome will require more wraps than Kanthal to achieve the same ohm. This extra number of wraps means a larger surface area and likely improves flavor due to more vaporization.

Ultimately, whether it's good or not is up to you to decide, and your comfort depends on the type of round wire you prefer. Simply put, don't worry too much about the differences between Kanthal and Nichrome. Nickel allergy? Use Kanthal. Can taste metal in Kanthal? Use nichrome.
