you should use the supplied o-ring on the 510. different size will confound things and create more mystery variables. certainly won't help anything.
remove atty, switch, o-ring, 510 internals assembly. clean and dry everything.
install the 1x9mm o-ring, the switch and atty. "bottom" the atty "out" in the 510.
Install the "internals assembly".
watch the outside of your atty while you squonk (check both sides)
keep an eye on things and see where you first see moisture/wetness. that will be the best clue as to where it's coming from.
Go to 5.5 wraps if you need too...will up your resistance a bit and give you a little more surface area...
don't lose track of Slots' question there, kids.
I think you already know my take, Slots; but I'll add that I make a 28g SS single coil for the wife. 2mm ID and 9-3/4 wraps (just short of 10) should land you a whisper over 1Ω (hot, not metered).

Yea, next go round will definitely have another wrap ! 
I'm sorry - have a good night.

Single parallel coil, that is two 28g SS wires wrapped around a 3/32 screwdriver tight to 5.5 wraps. Coil usually comes out to about 0.41 - 0.44Ω and I position it centrally on top of the positive post a la Turbocad6 style. I also pulse the coil and pinch it together with ceramic tweezers to make sure it glows smoothly from in to out. Then I feed through it organic cotton not too tightly (just slide it side to side in the coil so it has light resistance) and snip the ends to the outer ridge of the Nuppin deck.Just for the heck of it .....
Although I've been using my Nuppins and others, for a LONG time, I have to fess up that I make the same coils for use in all my atties whether it a tank or a RBA ...yep, I'm a K.I.S.S. person
They all vape fine, BUT, what does everyone consider "the perfect wrap" for the RBA's
I use a single coil, because when I tried the duels, I didn't see any difference other than it took longer to change it out ... twisting didn't impress me either.
Basically what size to wrap on, how many wraps, and "placement of coil"
I know I'm going to get a dozen answers, but that gives me a dozen ways to try it.
I have every size wire, plus 28g SS so I'm up for experimenting.
Stupid is, as stupid does
I was trying to find a pic of that center coil setup but failed. If anybody has it handy I'd appreciate it.
Gracias!
I'm a weirdo, so...keep that in mind.
I don't like SS. I've tried it, gotten builds just right, just what I wanted - and I can definitely tell a difference - and I don't like it.
I've also tried a few different setups - including "twisted, single over the top"...
But I keep coming back to this - it's my happy place in a lot of atties:
Kanthal, duals, 27 gauge, 6-wrap, 2.5mm (in a Nuppin - or 3.0mm in 22mm atties) = 0.43 ohms.
Yep - down to the last digit- it comes up at 0.43 ohms almost every time, LOL.

The o-ring is simply to make your atty sit where you want it so the coils are pointing the right direction for you. As for over squonking I just hold up the atty and stop when I see juice. If even a little bit gets out it can cause some puddling.
I almost always build at .4-ish whether single, dual, 24 or 26ga, Kanthal or SS, 2-3mm ID all depending on the RDA. With the Narda being the exception. It seems to like .7.
Tami's is of course sexier than mine but there you go. 
Thanks, your other suggestions worked great.
Now, ...I'm glad to see you bring up the SS, I haven't tried it yet because I didn't know where to start with it.
Thanks again for a starting point to work from.
sounds like it's up my alleyThanks y'all! Those were it!
One more question, what size Allen bit? I keep flipping/dropping the one with the Nuppins.

always
WOW, haven't tried anything below a 1.3
I'll have to try some lower wraps ... I might like it too
