Ive been experimenting with nichrome both on its own and with kanthal. I love the different options it gives me for building. The LV nichrome works well.

Nichrome Series 80 Resistance Wire
Wire works great. Heats up a bit faster than kanthal which is exactly what I was wanting. Though it does end up being lower ohm for the same build which for the claptontype wires this works best with is something you have to keep in mind. Ive heard some people can taste the difference between nichrome and kanthal but I personally cannot taste any difference.
