ok the only problem I'm having now is that the resistance keeps dropping. I started with 1ohms and over the past two days its steadily been dropping and is now at .6 ohm which i think is the near the very bottom limit, i think .4 is the lowest it will fire. Whats up? is this normal?
No, that's not normal, a slight tick up in resistance can happen, but it shouldn't be going down. Plug your build specs into steam engine and it should give you a rough estimate of what your resistance should be. If it doesn't match up, something is wrong.
