I bought the clone about a month ago. It was working good, I have silica wick from rba supplies. The expensive kind that cost like 12 dollars per foot. I put that wick in there, it was a really tight and hard fit. It was wicking okay, a few dry hits here and there.
I decided to dry burn it, and it just stopped working all together. I thought i broke the coil I tried to make my own. I had no non resistance wire. I had to wait a few days and I got some. I had 32 gauge wire, and bought 28 gauge nickle wire, just couldn't make a coil with it. I then bought 32 gauge resistance wire. Spent 6hrs trying to make a coil. I made one kind of, it showed R0.0 which is a short. I spent 2hrs trying to fix it to no avail. I had a friend who's really good at electronics look at it, he found a short at the connector. I guess one of the washers melted when i dried burned it(that's when it stopped working).
I got a rubber washer, had to cut it in half because it was too thick. Finally learned to wrap the coils good. Now I just get a burn taste. I thought it was the wire, i made another coil same thing... I tried everything... I can't figure it out. yes i made sure the wick was very wet... I measured the wire resistance at 1.2ohms, but when i put it on my device it says 0.9 ohms... Something is burning i think, i can't figure it out... any ideas, or help?
