I got 2 new high resistance attys yesterday that Im using at 6 volts. One works fantastic. I tried the 2nd one and Im getting no vapor at all. I blew out the primer and as soon as I did that I noticed it was much harder to blow through than the 1st one was. I added a few drops of fluid and tried to vape, I get heat and noise from the atty, but no vapor at all. Any ideas?

Just an update. Ive been messing with this thing to no avail. Tried an alcohol soak but that didnt help. I notice that when I power it on, it makes a tiny pop like noise, the casing gets normally hot, but when you look inside where you normally see a red glow after a few seconds there is nothing. Im guessing just a defective atty? just not sure whats defective about it.

Check it with a ohm meter if you got one. Could be helpful to know what it is at. Maybe they made it too high
