Hello there! I just got this nebox 2 weeks ago, it is my first electronic cigarette. 2 days ago I bought 2 liquids and wanted to try the rba coil that came in the starter kit. The thing is I was using one of the regular coils also included in the kit and all was working fine, but once I replaced the coil it will not burn the liquid, like if it is totally turned off. I changed the settings and found the TEMP OFF setting will make it work again, but if I select one of the profiles with TEMP control it will stop working again. I tried to move and try all the TEMP settings, changing the degrees from minimun to maximun but nothing, and if I use the TEMP OFF profile, the liquid gets totally burned really fast, like 3ml in 1 hour, including the taste is not good at all. How can I fix that without having to replace again to the regular coil? Thank you!

It's more likely than not that you received pre-built kanthal coils. Check the manual/pamphlet that was included with your setup...it may tell you what the coils are. However, for TC to be not working, it's more likele than not an incompatible material. Can you show us a pic of your setup as well as readins on the screen as suggested above?

Thank you so much for replying! I will answer your questions.
I am sorry but, I do not know what is the type of the wire since it came already inside the RBA coil, I just had to put cotton on it. The RBA coil only says "KangerTech mini RBA Plus".

The Resistance states 0.21ohms, and unfortunately I lost the manual but I only found this paper. The Coil I was using before the RBA states Ni, to be honest I do not know what it means D:but that one worked with all the settings and the TC, also the liquid would have a good taste and will last longer, but took around 1 - 2 seconds to start burning the liquid. With the RBA it takes like half second but will burn it all and is not a good taste.

BTW, sorry for my english
