I've had my subtank mini that I use on my istick 30w. It was working great for about 3 weeks up until now. The ohms keep jumping from 0 to1.4 to 2 on the istick resistance reader. I'm using the mini rba and it was .6 ohms the past 2 days but just started jumping around today. I've tried everything but can't seem to figure it out. Any help is appreciated.
subtank mini ohms jumping need help!

Make sure the post screws are tightened down. Sometimes they'll work themselves loose through normal use. 99% of the time when my ohms start jumping around, that's the cause.

Mine started doing the same thing after a re-wicking. Went from 1.0 to 4.4, bouncing around. What I found is that when I unscrewed the barrel of the chimney, I accidently loosened the bottom airflow screw that anchors the post. I stuck a micro screwdriver through the airflow hole and tightened it up. No more problem, back to .5 ohms. if you check out this Busardo's video on the tank, he was showing the differences in the insulator and was putting the pin back in. He shows how to tighten it down at 36:55 of the video

The post screws loosened over time. Once I tightened it it started to work again. Thanks
