Hi, I just started using a smoktech rda mini & the wrap is good on it. It's 2.15 ohms & worked just fine until I took it off my battery & then put it back on again. The draw is really tight on it now & I'm not sure what I should fix to stop this. The air hole is still right next to the coil & not covered up. Not sure what's changed that's caused the tight draw. Anyone have any thoughts?

maybe one of the wicks is covering the air hole? the air hole on the bottom isnt lined up with the base and the cap?

Most likely that.
But Mine has also gotten real tight based on the position the wick is in. Popping the cap off and reorganizing the wick(s) can help loosen up the draw in that case. Trimming the wick down could also help if you have added too much.

Well the air hole was definitely not covered up (at least the one on the side. If there's another then that one might have been covered but I was not aware there were 2) and I never did figure out what was causing the problem. I ended up recoiling it & it worked properly the next time. The wick was sort of big so that might have been the problem & if it happens again I'll check that. But I also had it wrapped pretty tightly so I'm also wondering if that didn't contribute. Anyway, I'm not having it now. Thanks so much for your responses though. :)
