Segeli help

[Masurao8770]

So ...I'm no newbie to building coils..but I'm new to the selgeli I have the 50w version and I'm building well with in its limits but for some reason this last build...is hopping around from .2 -.4 an and the V. Are also all over the place...when I measure the build, its a steady .27 nothing is firing wrong or over heating....just...numbers jumping and no errors and everything is tight n in place....

Any help would be so so appreciated

Hi and welcome.

It sounds like you have a short. Tighten the screws, check that your coil isn't touching the posts or isn't too high, and if it is still jumping you may want to just build a new coil.

Is there any way you can post a pic of the build?

Ya like suggested look for shorts... for me is usually the tail ends touching something

as they said, sounds like a short. TIP: ALWAYS Check your ohms BEFORE you vape. the ohm meter would have shown you jumping numbers. meaning a likely short. I'm assuming your device is regulated luckily. if it was a mechanical mod a short is a SERIOUS issue because mechanical mods don't have the protection you have. because your device didn't shut you down and ran, you probably don't have a dead short but more of a loose wire, loose connection,loose screw . something is likely loose. a dead short (metal touching metal, wire touching chimney ect) would not run at all. so go through and check your build. invest in a ohm tester with a 510 connection. Amazon has them very cheaply priced. hope this helps you out.

If sounds like your screws are loose on the coil leads. What happens is, when it heats up, the coils change shape and the power is fluctuating going through it. Using a resistance tester won't test for this since they don't heat the coils up.
