Gadget, you first link to that other site, there is a virus on that site.  Might want to scan your computer.  My norton picked it up and blocked it after picking your link.

Thanks Mark . I dumped Norton 7 years ago because of this  . I use paid Avast and paid Malwarebytes . It's not a virus . The guys site linked an Iframe ,probably one of the videos on there. I detect zero viruses only an iframe. Probable Iframe Injection that google flaged as a probable harmful site because it might inject ads or redirect you to another site. As always always use a good malware detector when Visiting any website , If you think you might have a virus or malware you can download malwarebytes here http://www.malwarebytes.org/lp/malware_lp_form  or www.malwarebytes.org and get it from cnet . Norton is good but it will give you false positives and won't detect all Viruses . Nothing will but i found that Avast will get more of them than Norton . Also the paid Mayware bytes runs in memory and will stop you from going to the iframed site and block you , You have to allow it and even then it protects you from anything harmful entering your system .

For those of you who bought 40 feet roll . The wire is in its unannealed cold drawn condition . This means it is not yet memory metal . You need to anneal it first . Take 1 to 2 inch pieces for start  and reread this thread for some good advice . I now use electricity to anneal mine but you can heat it with a torch . As mentioned by me the outcome will differ according to how much heat you put on these wires. you can overheat the wire and you will need Freeze Spray which is colder than ice to make your wire soft which then you will use more energy that you produce . Don't over heat the wire . I have fine tuned pieces to transform from 55f cold to 75f . The wire will turn a very pretty Blue/purple . I have seen it every color of the rainbow from yellow orange  green to dark red light blue and deep purple  and black. The light blue to deep blue was the best result for air temp work . If you do it like i do it takes 20seconds to anneal a piece 12 inches long from heat to ice water . Use a Container like a pie pan with crushed ice and water for large pieces and use needle nose pliers so you can drop it instantly in the cold water just after you heat it . . The quenching stage i found to be very important . Also the different quenching temps of the water affect the outcome of the phase transitions .. experiment until you get what you need .After that you can Train and exercise your Nitinol to be Very Strong and smart:)

Here is a Piece Of Nitinol showing the rainbow of colors you can get . I used a torch and this is the result . You get uneven colors and therefore uneven temperature transformations . If you can get it the Blue color or purple that is the best for using cool water or cool air as the martinsite stage . This is the soft stage where you can deform the the wire and it loses its strength and is a wet noodle .
Note . The 2 Pieces you see in the bottom corner i carry in my wallet . One is blue and the other is purple . I keep them with me to show people and made loops on the ends and covered them with white rubber latex so if i drop them they don't vanish. I have lost several pieces already before doing this .They seem to have a stealth property that blends in with the ground .
