I need a bit of advice please,I bought this kit from eBay.
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/322475630691
and the RBA deck keeps shorting and the ohms jump all over the place on my Cloilmaster tab and that's before I put it together which only just fits. I think the RBA is pushing the 510 pin out too far and causing the problem but I'm not certain. I have heard that some people file the RBA base down because it is too big at the base but I'm wondering if you guys could shed some light on the matter or if I need to get something else. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
PS I bought the 2ml RBA full kit.

My first piece of advice would be to screw the rba into the tank base without the the rba top cap and the tank base into the ohms reader. Then check the resistance to see if it's stable. The most likely cause is that the coils are making contact with the inner chamber of the rba when the top section of the rba is screwed on.

Check that first and report back.

I will try that now,thanks for getting back to me.

The ohms are jumping around from 0.54 up to 0.95. When I put it on my Smok Alien it says "do not abuse,protect"

I tried unscrewing it and put it back on and the ohms are different every time. That 510 really protrudes far more than anything else I've got.

I have managed to get a stable reading of 0.41 and just tried putting the tank back together in a different order by screwing the top of the RBA cap to the chimney(which was a bugger getting threaded) and then screwing the RBA itself with the base attached to the cap,its seems to be stable and my Alien accepted it. I am now going to wick her up and see what happens.

OK, so it does sound like a 510 problem. Unfortunately, I can't personally advise you on that. Never had that problem and never had to file a 510 down before so there are others here who have and are better qualified to offer advice.

Nope,still jumping,I've changed the coils too from the ones that came with the RBA,my CoilMaster tab can barely heat them up and is showing some kind oh hot error. I put two 0.4 ohm pre made coils in that I know are good. My RBA seems to keep screwing into the base a long way down. I would love to get this thing to work but I can't see it happening,I'm really disappointed with this one because I have two TPD 2ml Baby Beast tanks that came with kits,I just missed the pre TPD version which is a bloody shame.
