RDA Whistling RDA

[FastNick]

I noticed I have some rda's that whistle when I inhale. I just bought the big dripper clone and it whistle like hell. And when I say whistle I mean it. Is it from the build or is because of the poor atty construction?

On a side note. Do yourself a favor when you buy a new atty and WASH IT before build it. I was so anxious to try my new toy I completely forgot the basic rules and I regret it deeply. The taste was absolutely horrible and even tho I removed the build and wash it thoroughly I'm kinda reluctant right now to try it again. As soon I'l manage to kick the taste out of my mind I will rebuild again.
Never ever ever never build right out of the box.

I'm pretty sure if you take your coil/s out and try it, it won't whistle.

Whistling has alot to do with geometry, so just adjusting your coil position or wicking will change the whistle; the airhole size is quite relevant; if you like a tight draw, you're more likely to get whistling.

I have a few cheapo RDAs that do that. I hate it and rarely use them because of it.

my tobh did, and I tried countersinking the holes with a obscenly larger bit than the diamer of the hole (to round things out a bit)

it helped significantly, but as others mentioned, coil position does aswell.

Thanx y'all for the input. I'll try a different build next time.
