Recoiled Kanger atomizer won't fire?

[thebatfink]

Hi,

I recoiled a Kanger atomizer yesterday. I followed Shineys tutorial and used .25 wire, 11 wraps around a 1.5mm mandrel. The only thing I didn't do was blowtorch the coil together at the end so the coils are a little looser?

It fires OK in my VTR but on my Spinner II the light just flashes 5 times and won't fire.

What could I have done wrong? Is it not blowtorching it at the end?? Thanks!

What's the resistance reading when on the vtr?

Have you tried unscrewing it a bit from the spinner see if it fires then?

I have to put it on the extension tube as its inside a protank 3 but it says.. 2.2

That is fine thebatfink turn the spinner off and gently tease up the centre pin where you attach the atty, you can use a small screwdriver etc. This can get pushed down by over tightening and hence makes no contact.

This probably won't help but:

Over-Discharge Protection: The device will monitor the battery voltage and automatically turn off when the battery is discharged, preventing damage to the battery by overly depleting it. The LED will blink 5 times indicating that a charge is needed.

If the atty is open cicuit the button will just light as normal. A short will switch it off.

Could also be that you may not have trimmed the excess wire right back to the housing or grommet pin, even with a slightest amount protuding it could be touching something to give a short.
