battery connector is sprung so making connection i have tried 7 atomizers and 4 fully charged batteries if i do a 2 ring coil i can get it to glow after 7 seconds if i make a 3 ring coil it will not glow at all glow the light flickers green dim then glows bright the electronics are not giving power to the connector has anyone had this problem
itaste 134 problem

I am going to assume by what you mean by a 2 or 3 ring coil is that the number of wraps is 2 or 3?? If that is the case, then your load/resistance is way too low for an iTaste 134 and it is shutting down, protecting itself. What gauge wire are you using? how big is the dia. of the coil? For an iTaste 134 you should be going no lower than about 1.2-1.5 ohms... use an ohm meter to determine how low your ohms are... adjust accordingly.

Battries are panasonic ncr 18650 2900 i have 7 different atomisers from 0.9 to 2.3 all giving aweak vape wa working fine till friday regards
Sorry yes 2 wraps glow 3 wraps don't tried 7 different atomisers from 0.9 to 2.3 regards
ahh ok now i see what you mean... sounds like you may be running too low on the watts try going to about 9-11 watts.
Ok - if you are using .9 ohms (which is to low for a 134 see BunnyKiller's post 1.2-1.5 Lowest) and you put it at 4 Volts you would be attempting to pull 17 Watts, provided the 134 even attempts to fire it. You arent necessarily exceeding or maxing your battery's amp limit - but you are certainly exceeding the device's capabilities. That, however does not explain the issue with 2.3 Ohms. So - are your batteries protected or unprotected?
Protected batteries can wreak havoc in a VV/VW device as they already have built in protection circuitry.
Hang on a sec - When you say battery connection is sprung - can you explain that a little further? Is there an issue with your actual spring on the bottom cap?

Hi tried all setting does not make any differance have 2mm drill bit and32gauge wire
Yes battery connect is spung so i know it is connecting to the atoniser regards
with 32 ga. wire, over a 2 mm drill, try 5 wraps first and check the resistance of that coil, just my opinion. But you do really need to have an ohm meter to check the resistance of coils you build, using that info, you can tailor your coil to your liking.
To test i done 5 wraps just got hot same for 3 wraps then 2 wraps glowed red after about 7 seconds the button is glowing green
Glowing is good, but how many ohms does the coil measure? You need this info to really dial in your wattage control so you aren't stressing your device, or trying to pull too many amps. Although variable wattage devices "automatically" adjust the voltage for a given ohm load, you still need to know that for a proper starting point.
I see - your firing pin is making contact is what you mean here - got it!
Do you have a multimeter to check out all of your coils? You have to push the button very squarely on some 134s to avoid a "partial activation" but my thought is - are you sure you have unprotected batteries? Protected batteries can cause this sort of problem in an already protected device?
on my mvp it's reading 1.8 just notice the button is flickering for 3 seconds then glows bright and stops flickering
Unprotected batteries - High Drain - IMR - your device is already protected. Using protected batteries can make it all wonky.
If this doesnt solve it - you *may* have a device issue or defect.
Unless, are you by some chance between settings on the dial and using an unprotected battery and still getting the red flash?
no the butto is glowig green i get a light vape after 7-8 seconds it was working fine up till friday
This really sounds like a battery issue. It sounds like your device is trying to shut off and protect itself. I am not certain if protected batteries in a protected device can permanently damage the circuitry or not.
Have you ever dropped it? And just to be certain - you are using the orbtronic hybrid 18650 pan right?
