What's wrong with my RDA?!

[Mandy_H]

Hello,
So I got a Drop Dead yesterday & the 1st build I put in was double Clapton that was .17ish & nothing, no coils activating I don't remember if it said anything. I contacted the company, not sure if I should say who but very nice & if it was DOA they were gonna help. Went to make a video as they requested so I put coils I made nothing special just .23 build & it fired right up, I was so excited!! Earlier today it did say low atomizer & no idea what it means but I checked the leads & they were tight, & somehow got it working. I was sick if my generic coils so I grabbed 2 pre-made juggernauts that ohm out at .08 & what ya know, it says low atomizer again. Is it the coils & they're too low ohm for my RX 200? That's the only thing I can think of?! Plz help as I only have a limited time with this company to send back. I couldn't decide between this & the drop but If it's the coils that wouldn't matter! It's awesome when it works! I really hope it's user error.. No leads are touching, everything is tight one of the leads is touching the right of where it gets screwed in at but that shouldn't matter cuz all leads will be touching the front after the screw is in place & holding it down. Yes, I know the build isn't straight,& perfect but I was gonna fix when getting out hit spots so no hating lol! Please, please, please tell me what's going on w/ low atomizer. Ty everyone!

My RDA is acting crazy!

Again this is where an ohm meter comes in handy. I don't know what the specs are for your mod but one thing you can try is strum the coils and then pulse them. See if the ohms come up. It might take a few times. Good luck.

Definitely make sure there are no clippings shorting out the positive post to the deck. It doesn't take much to cause a short.

Sorry but I saw the thread"what's wrong with my RDA" and about fell out . How do you get a broken RDA?
I do agree this is where an ohm meter comes in though.

if you dont have an ohm reader use another mod for comparison,

I suggest giving it a nice clean again, maybe theres some little wire pieces shorting something or making it go crazy everytime they move inside.

also according to wismecs website "0.1-3.5ohm for VW mode" so It might not fire that low.

Your ohms are simply too low for the rx200 probably. Should fire down to .05 but mine wouldn't fire below .17.

In VV mode the lowest you can go is 0.1,so a 0.8(I am assuming you have a 0.08) is too low to fire.
In TC mode you can go down to 0.5 though.

.05 ohm in tc
I have made and used juggernaut coils. They are nice for using high wattage and making huge clouds. They are big coils and even in kanthal are low ohms. I use juggernaut coils in my single coil attys.

check if the 510 pin is loose
