Sounds like you needed less resistance which you achieved by dropping that one wrap, but in doing so you made it too hot for your wick to keep up with pulling juice. You can use the same wrap on a faster wicking wick for one thing.Getting really frustrated...I started with a 3/4 wrap, was taking too long to heat up, had to take 3 or 4 puffs to get any substantial vapor or TH, so i dropped a wrap, way better vapor but the taste is not great, think it dries the wick out too fast....so I went back to the original set up, flavor is a bit better STILL not pure as it should be and very slow to vaporize....using 32 kanthal, maybe i should drop down to 30, I have some on the way....Anyways have sore neck muscles from straining trying to get a decent vapeI have the same juice in my Penelope and it rocks my world, big clouds and great flavor...what the hell am I doing wrong??? I really want to love this thing but it is really starting to irritate me. I still have things to try I suppose, maybe i will go back to a fatty wick, still waiting on the 500 mesh from the coop, using 325 right now....Anyways just had to vent a little as my wife just rolls her eyes at me

When you had the 4wrap of 32 did you see your juice bubbling a lot? If thats the case your original wrap may have been fine but your wick was pulling too much juice for your coil.
You can come at this problem from all different angles but I'm sure you know that. Personally I find 32g Kanthal twisted at a 5 wrap is perfect for me, roughly 1.5 ohms depending on width of wick.
