For a few days now, my Cisco 306 hasn't been getting very warm, nor is producing a lot vapor. I metered it with my DMM, and it's still reading 1.5 ohms. I'm running it on my Reo Grand with a AW 18650, under load its reading 3.82v so it's not a power issue. Is the atty just giving up?

The lack of heat and throat hit is bugging me, and I can't seem to figure this out since all the numbers look good.

I did blow it out and and powered it up, the coil glowed really quick and a nice orange/white.

I think it's time Rob designed, built, and sold atomizers. :D
If I had time I would :)If you mass produce them your going to have issues it happens look at ikenvape and avid vaper both good suppliers but they run into problems its the nature of the beast. Unless I made them myself I would run into the same issues

Put a new Cisco 306 on it this morning, and voila, nice and warm and smoke screens of vapor. I double checked the offending atty and all looks fine. I guess I'll never figure that one out. But all is we'll now.

Take a look at the coils... they could be gunked up... search "my atty resurrection method" ; works wonders on 306s!!

I've kept 306s running for months and months using that cleaning method... give it a shot!

I have to agree Chornbro. It works really well. I have recently started using it on my 1.5 ohm 306's.

I use 1.5 Ciscos and 3.5 IKV @ 3.7/6v... either one cleans up really, really well! I've been doing it every other night or so to "maintain" my atties rather than having to clean them and "fix" them when they stop working. The 306s dont seem to mind!
