Yeah it's all the way open. I tried editing my last post to respond to you all but I think I messed it up. The ohms are coming out a little over .4.

Did you rewrap your coil? You were at .4 ohms before & you're only a little over .4?
Yeah I made another coil when you said the other one looked too long. I made the inner diameter 3.5mm like you recommended and I did between 7 & 8 wraps. Hmm...now the coil is .36 according to the Therion 166
And I encountered a problem when I first put the wick in. The coil was originally a little over .4 ohms then it went to .2 ohms! So I was about to take the wick out. When I took out one of the tails from the juice well, the reading went back to .4 ohms. I lightly put the tail back in and the reading didn't change. Edit: LoL now it's back to .42 ohms. Should I lock the resistance? I remember reading somewhere that the resistance shouldn't be locked on dna stuff.
Did you make sure your screws are in tight & no leads are sticking out? The ohms shouldn't jump. I'm not sure about locking the resistance, I only have 1 DNA mod & I lock the resistance. How is the flavor now? And the dryness? You primed it well after the new coil & wick right?Yeah I made another coil when you said the other one looked too long.

Edit: also your coil is not touching the deck or post right.
I've never needed to lock resistance on any mods except the sigelei ones and the g class. If the ohms are jumping there is a connection problem somewhere. I'd start by putting the atty on another mod just to remove the mod from the equation. But sounds like a loose screw to me

Screws seem to be tight. I pulled the coil slightly before wicking and it didn't budge. The flavor is a lot better and the dryness has subsided.
@Herrick,
I went through something similar, I apparently had my 24g ss316L coil stretched to far apart. I kept on getting a slight dry cotton taste, wicked over and over but no change.
Made a coil that was not stretched at all and it works fine now.
note: this^ defies the logic I was using...in other words I don't know why my cotton seemed to burn so easily with a spaced coil, in my mind it should be the opposite.

Update: coil was touching deck. Raised coil. Immediate temp protection came on at every wattage. Wrapped new coil. Made damn sure coil was not touching deck. Made sure coil ends were secure. Rewicked. Ohm reading steady in power and temp mode. Took a little while but flavor and vapor are really good now. No dryness.
Yay!!! Mission Accomplished!
I left the airflow open last night. Forgot to close it. So this morning, I got Merlin RTA style leaking. Do you guys usually close the airflow on the EXO RTA when not in use?
No I just leave it. You mean seeping on the bottom that leaves a ring on your mod? Maybe not enough wicking?
Mine is wide open all the time & I also fill the tank with JFC wide open no leak at all
you might need to reconfigure your wick

Finally figured out a way to make this bad boy leak proof. I use rayon. That is probably why I've been getting a lot of leaks since rayon does not expand like cotton does.
I tucked a very thin layer of the wick under the coil so it would rest on the deck to collect any moisture accumulation on the deck.

I had leaking that one time but it hasn't leaked again after putting in the restrictor. I'm going to try rayon again (been using cotton) some time this week.
Couldn't wait anymore. I put some rayon in there. Seems to be pretty good right now. There's a slight wavery watery noise when I vape it but there's no leaking or spitback. Perhaps I thinned the tails too much.
It was leak free all day yesterday. Today it stated leaking again. The rayon is sitting on the deck just the way I wanted it to be too. Let me know how your rayon encounter goes.
Anybody using rayon without leaks on this bad boy? No matter how I make my wicks I get leaks.
That sucks. It leaked again even after you put the extra rayon in there? Do you have the restrictor in? I think Heartsdelight uses rayon.
