Multi meter? That's not a ohm checker?

Have a look at this:
https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/how-to-use-a-multimeter

How ever, you may be able to accomplish the same thing by putting your deck with coil attached in your ohm checker and wiggling the coil and screws whilst watching the meter. Eventually you`ll touch it just right, and the meter, either the ohm checker or a MM will bounce, or fluctuate so that you know you have found the spot of bad connectivity. With the multi meter you could just go from connection to connection and find where the drop off occurs, If the deck and coil check out and you cant find anything amiss with them you would want to start checking out the 510 at the mod to make sure its grounding good, but that would require a MM.

My daily vape is a full size Lemo on a Hana clone box.

Some things to check for:

1) make certain the coil leads are properly secured.
2) make certain the center post screw is tightened fully to the positive block. I've found this loose on one of my Lemo's....
3) make sure the bottom base section is fully tightened for good contact with the center post.

For the Hana, adjust the 510 screw of the Lemo so that it is sticking out a bit from the 510 threads of the Lemo base. If adjusting the 510 screw for the first time, it might be necessary to hold the cylinder inside the bottom base section with a small pair of pliers while you loosen the the screw from the other side. Afterwards, it should adjust easily with even a fingernail.

EDIT: You might also check to make sure the coil leads are not contacting the postive block. Unlike the kayfun, there is no height offset between the positive and negative side, and it may be necessary to tweak the lead on the positive side a bit to keep it from shorting to the positive block.

That was the problem!!! I didn't holder the cilinder inside so it twisted also.

Thank you so very much!!

I'll have to mess around with mine some more. I did the same thing, adjusting the 510 pin to protrude slightly (which definitely improved things) but the pin was wobbly. The only way I could get the pin to protrude AND be solid was to insert a couple tiny pieces of o-ring under the pin/screw head and tighten. It's kind of a redneck janky fix but it definitely improved the situation - just not 100%. It's like I need a slightly longer 510 screw/pin. Grrrrr. I'll mess with it later. Hopefully I'll have some luck like Jet did.
