I've been using boge cartomizers in my tank for a while and they have been working well for me, but recently I've noticed the longer I use the carto the ohms are lowering (using on a provari so can check the ohms). Is this something that happens naturally that I have not noticed before? The carto that I am using today started at 2.2 ohms and now it reads 1.6 ohms. Is it because the carto is getting "gunked" with my 50/50 PG/VG eliquid?

Where you least expect it....
Yes, it's normal for the ohms to change. The reason being due to temperature. Since the wire is being constantly heated during the act of vaping. Over time it will effect the resistance (ohms) of the wire causing it to either increase or decrease.
