I don't know if anyone has had this issue. A couple things that should be known:
First noticed this when I put in my brand new Mutation X V3 and Mutation X V4 RDA's.
Does not happen with other older atomizers, like my personal favorite, my Cartel Stillare V3 (native 3-coil RDA).
I would like to think this issue is cause by the atomizer screws, making the connection/resistance jumpy. However, my ohms meter - stays the same, it does not jump around.
I'm using brand new authentic VTC4 batteries, I've also loaded new authentic Samsung 25R's in as well, batteries seem to have no affect on the issue - it still jumps around.
I'm almost positive this is atomizer related and not Sigelei 150w Box Mod related, but I could be wrong, and I'm wondering if anyone else in the ECF fam has ran into this issue. Another thing that should be known - I only sub-ohm drip, and I exclusively use OMG's W>T>F ejuice. I've flooded my atomizer a million times, so maybe ejuice got down to the board and caused this? The odd thing that kind of rules that out is that when I switch back to my Cartel Stillare V3 atty - the problem is GONE.
One last thing - When building coils, I use a ceramic tipped tweezers, so I can tweak my coils while holding the switch down - get the coils nice and snug. However when doing this with a Mutation RDA, I will drop the watts down to 30W, and the voltage will shoot up to 4.8v!!!! every time I press the switch it is different. It will go from 4.8v, down to 3.3v then back up to 4.2v then back down to 3.8v - as I get the coils firing properly, glowing from the inside out, the voltage stabilizes, but it still jumps a little each time I press the switch button.
My theory is that it is the screws holding down my kanthal, the connection isn't good, but the screws are tightened down all the way!! So I loosened them, nothing changed, still does it. After 5 or 6 builds, and a lot of wasted kanthal I gave up... this is just how these Mutation X atomizers fire... These are authentic Mutation X RDA's as well, not clones.
