Seems ok to me. I was able to tighten it a little though. What are you saying that would cause? The screws slipping or something else?
Mvp will auto shut down when shorting out.
Center pin looks just fine. If you wrap the leads once around then there is no way that the wire will snap off. I guess you had a bad luck with that one. They should replace the deck for you!

if the center pin is loose it cause the one of the posts to move around off the isolator and touch metal. this causes a short. or, maybe with your regulated device, to show screwy ohm readings or error-out.
See any issues with this? I did notice my cotton was a little hard to pull out. Would too much wick cause that? It read 1.8 after removing the wick and 2.0 after dry burning. Weird.
Don't worry, I just got my fogger v4 in the mail and it's a dud. I feel you man......
Frickin a. Same thing after re-wicking. After juicing the wick and assembling the ohms went up to 2.6. Then after filling and vaping it went back down to 2.0.
coil looks messy. is the leg on left (lower side) touching anything? kinda looks like it, but I cant see for sure.
try wrapping with this method instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7o7RFoTtw0
just follow the first method in the video precisely, step by step.
or maybe the ohm reading function on that mvp sucks..?

if it was a short the ohms would be dropping, not increasing.. increasing ohms indicate a loose connection
I don't think it's touching anything. I tried his method first but it was extremely difficult for me for 2 reasons:
1. He set the coil down with the ends of the wire on the top of the coil rather than the bottom - it was harder to get the wire around the screw that way.
2. He wrapped the wire around the screws counterclockwise which doesn't make any sense to me. Every time I screwed it down it pushed the wire loose. Common sense tells me it should wrap clockwise because then when I screw it down I'm screwing the same direction as the wrap.
What I mean is, he tells you over and over to make sure the ends are coming out under the screw rather than over and then when he tells you the ends that go under which screw he's essentially unwrapping the coil a half turn and essentially making the ends as if they were coming over, negating what he said.
Maybe I'm just missing something but right here in the video this is where he shows the ends should go.

Turn around the coil to the right for 90 degrees! Leads will be clockwise when tightening down. Upper lead on the picture to the right terminal and lower to the left.
Ya that's what I did actually. Although a crappy job at it. But hey this was my second coil apart from the couple times I rebuilt a kanger head.

The orientation of the coil over the airflow hole does not really matter, diagonal, perpendicular, parallel to the mounting blocks. Do what works for you. I wrap 6 times around a 5/32 drill bit, and it works perfect every time. Between 1.0-1.2 ohms depending on the length of the legs.
My buddy bought a clone (don't know brand, but it was a 3.1) and the positive screw hole stripped out. Ended up getting him an H-Cigar lite instead. However the entire rebuild kit was about $13.

They replaced the base. Turns out it IS a clone. The first girl I talked to just didn't know what she was talking about. Pretty well done clone though. Even had their logo and everything. No wonder it was $35 haha
Alright this one turned out better. Seems to be steadily at 1.5. How does this look?
Coil looks nice! Maybe i exaggerated with 5-6mm off the airhole, but it should be at least 2-3mm. Your is a bit high, but not a problem at all! Next time try to lower it for 1 or 2mm and you will see what suits you better.
So switching screws helped?! Nevermind. It was bad threading on deck...
