Hello all, I posted here a couple months ago I think and haven't had anymore problems until now. And I know this may not be the right place to post this because it's probably not a "beginner question" but Im willing to bet there is an easy solution for this so I decided to post it here.

Anyway, I got my sigelei, got two good Samsung 18650 batteries, and the only problem I'm having is that it won't fire. Both of my Doge RDA's just won't fire on my sigelei. Both of the RDA's are built to be at 0.25ohms, and have been measured and seen as such, but whenever I've put them on my mod they won't fire and this message that says, "LOW RESISTANCE" pops up on my screen. I've tried adjusting the copper pin all the way down to its tightest position, and all the way up so that it's almost coming out, and various places in the middle. So I don't know what's going on. It's weird because my sigelei will fire on my mutation x v2, which is at around 0.33ohms. So can you guys help me out? I'd really appreciate it cause I'd love to not have to use two different mods for my different RDA's. Thanks so much guys

I thought it was 0.15. But then again that could be for the sigelei plus I guess. But I don't think so. For all I know I have the non plus sigelei
Just checked the specs and you are right but yours seems like it doesnt want to fire under .3. Are the resistance readings the sig gives you correct?

The 100w has a 0.15 - 3.0 ohm range, your within the range it seems. Possibly the device is measuring higher or your builds are lower then the reading says. Do you have an ohm checker to test these with? They both work on a mech? Seem like the readings are off on the box then what the build you have made.

Yes. I have checked the ohms on my Doge RDA's using an actual ohms reader and using the ohms reader on my MVP. Both of my Doge RDA's work on my Manhattan Clone. Could something be wrong with the sigelei itself? Is it fixable? I hope I didn't waste $90

Of course, your Manhattan clone is a mechanical, and will fire anything, even a dead short.

You didn't mention at what wattage you had your Sigelei set at.

well, if building below 0.4 ohms, there is no advantage to going regulated box, and one is outside it's optimal design specifications. Try building between 0.5-0.8 ohms, and I bet you'll find significant purrformance vape improvement. One could likely under clock a build on the Sigelei, but heck, she only puts out 15 amps max, so going that low one is demanding more amps the she's designed to put out. Just saying.


Vape long and Prosper.!!!
