I am starting to build a battery powered heating system (similar to a vaporizer), and need to reach hot air temperatures of about 200-250°C.
Right now I am not too sure about the heating element that I will use, but I was thinking of using 1W or 2W resistor, do you guys think that it can withstand such temperature without failing? How long do you guesstimate that such resistor could work? I suppose it will be some wire-wiound type. Hope to get some real-world answers, as I am not too experienced in abusing resistors.
I don´t want to use resistive wire, because the lenght needed to get 10ohm would be too great for the confined space.
Also do you have any ideas for some thermistor that could withstand these tempereatures?
