Ive noticed that the rubber gaskets inside of the atomizer coil heads have a tendency to melt, slightly, especially if you are heavy on it or chaining. Here is a photo of what I am talking about:

I dont know if you can see it, but there are these dark spots where the coil wire makes contact with this gasket. I have thought about trying to use some 3mm ekowool instead, but it doesn't really work because it comes unbraided if you try to work with such a small piece. Some people have mentioned non resistance/resistance wire spliced together, but it's not really worth it, IF I could even make one that would fit. I am really not too concerned about this for myself, since I am aware of it I just go easy on my BCC and Protank, so this post is more for the purpose of educating others. This is a danger of chaining on your tanks. If you like to go through your atomizer heads in one day and aren't afraid of smoking rubber, be my guest. If there are any other ideas beyond the non resistance wire, please share. I searched for this topic and couldn't find it, so I thought I'd post this. Maybe a better atomizer head is available? Thanks again.
