Problems with Smotech dripper

[regal55]

I bought the simplist dripper I could find as I have a hell of a time building Kayfuns. Well I built this https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10007487/1651801-authentic-smoktech-dripper-rda

I did 10 wraps of 30guage for each coil, my Trobeca DNA30 says 1 ohm. I tried 15 to 20 watts and got gurgling and heat but very little vapor. Any ideas what went wrong?

That dripper is meant for single coil builds. You said each coil; did you make a dual coil build? Picture of the build please.

Usually gurgling happens when the juice isn't heated fast enough in comparison to your draw.

30guage will take longer compared to a 26/28guage to warm/heat up and less surface. Airflow is also key to vapor production; make sure the airhole is large enough and positioned right where the coil is built.

It has three posts and is definitely a dual coil atomizer. Is it possible I over soaked things, it seams to be producing a little vapor now at 15w. At 20 whats it was just a gurgling cauldron.

I think a need 26 guage, the problem seems to be related to a slow warm up.

Your link is for a two post dripper...

Please clarify.

Well they sent me a three post RDA (I wanted a two post). I don't have a macro camera. But is definitely has three posts.


Do you have to align the air hole some way? As I said earlier I made to coils and the unit measure 1 ohm. It seams like it is making vapor but it isn't drawing out.

Is this the one they sent you? $8.24 Authentic Smoktech Scar Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping If it is dripping to much juice will fill the bottom airholes and cause gurgling.

You want a clear shot between the airholes and the coil.
Too much cotton and to much juice (I've noticed) will produce less vapor.
A 1.0 Ohm dual 30 gauge coil build is a lot of real estate to heat up. You will get better performance if you make it with a few less wraps around .7 or .8 Ohm.
Higher VG juice = more vapor
More air flow = more vapor

Good luck!
