help with igo-w

[mazelmazel]

Hey guys,

I just got an Octopus RDA and an IGO-W rda as my first rebuildable atomizers. The octopus works great and am building consistent 2 ohm coils with it and drilled out another air hole and it works great no problems.

The IGO-W on the other hand my ohms keep fluctuating around and I cant get a consistent ohm reading no matter what. I made sure the screws are tight, no coils are touching each other, coils aren't touching the posts, etc. and I still can't seem to get it working correctly.

Any ideas? I like how the IGO-W looks better on my Zmax v3 and how the IGO-W has a small drip well.

likes like a short. keep fiddling with the connections until it goes away

Are you running it as a single or dual coil?

 

[mazelmazel]

I'm running it as a single coil.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Sounds like a short, triple check every connection and wiggle wires to see if one is nearly broken but hard to see.

The screws can cut the wire pretty easily, which would be my guess as to what is going on. I no longer use the holes in the post, but wrap the wire below the heads. Works better that way. YMMV.

check the insulators a piece of machining steel might have gotten through there and is causing the short

Thanks TequilaLoved. I did that and it seems to be working well now. Mackievill, what and where are the insulators?
