I am looking into using Nichrome Wire for a current project that requires a heating element. I did a little research and found out that Nichrome wire is the heating element most commonly used in toasters and hair dryers. Does anyone have any idea how long the heat up time is for this kind of wire? If a I put a large amount of current through it (a couple of amperes), could I get it to a couple of 100 degrees Farenheit in a few seconds?
