yesterday recieved my first did (griffin) atomizer and vamo from zainy china but i have problems.first of all i made my ss coil as shown on youtube.and wraped my coil(with the wire they sent with did)3 wraps 4 wraps 5 wraps 6 wraps even 7 wraps. 1.5/1.7/1.9/2.1/2.2/2.4 ohms. I tried all but i have a wired taste and very low vapor all the time.and sometimes ohm screen shows different ohms with same wraps (1.5 ohms 1.7 ohms sometimes 1.9 ohms).and after 2 3 puffs vamo shuts down itself and needs to turn on again.I also tried 3 different ss mesh and silica rope wick.with silica doesnt shuts down but same less vapor or ugly taste or bured taste.
what am I doing wrong?please help. I regret switching to did rebuildables so far.

The wired or metal taste is common until the wick and coil are broken in. It sometimes will take a tankful of juice to break it in. If your ohms are jumping all over the place then you have a small short somewhere. Be sure the wick isn't touching the bottom of the tank and try moving the coils around so there are no hotspots. You're devices may be detecting a short and shutting down. Burnt taste means your wick isn't wicking properly. RBAs are real fiddly and have a substantial learning curve. Keep reading and practicing and you'll get it.
