What dripper are you using and what ohms are you running at?

Without the info how can we answer. I would say build your cools a bit higher coz to get your dt warm you must be low but saying that the only rda I get a warm dt with is the Derringer so I use it with a delrin dt

If it is the rda you bought of of ebay it looks like the fastech one that sells for £1.83 it is their cheapest dripper, ft describe it as a 2.4 ohm dripper so I would not want to put a coil in it that had a low enough resistance to make the tip hot you are likely to melt the insulators.

When I was looking through your posts to see what dripper you had I noticed you are into mixing.
I would keep your dripper as a flavour tester.
First build a higher resistance coil that does not make the atty hot. You probably do not have to go as high as 2.4 if you only use it in short bursts to test juice. The atty would probably also benefit by enlarging the air hole a bit this would loosen the draw a bit and cool the coil more.
I also noticed that a while back you were asking about some unheard of battery. Given how long you have been on the forum this says to me that perhaps you could do with learning more about general safety if you are going to get into rebuildables. There is plenty of stuff on the forum and youtube about ohms law and battery safety.
It is well worth getting into drippers just do a bit of research then buy a better dripper.
The derringer is the dripper most raved about at the moment and clones are cheap. I like the Igo-l for learning to coil, also cheap.
Good luck.

Thank you for the replies i think i need to look in to things a bit more . And get the right kit as well .

cheers

Have a look at this

Anything on that page would be better than what you bought and many are cheap.
The page should be sorted by popularity if you change it to price lowest to highest what I think you bought was the first item.

And from the link Mr Hippy has posted, these 2 stand out for a new to dripping person:

The Magma is slightly easier to build on at first, but the Derringer is much more fun when you've got the hang of things. Both take a single coil which is nice.
I'd recommend a look at stealthvape for - Kanthal A1 Sampler Pack so you have a wee array of wire to practice with and to find out what works best for you.

What you've got is to be frank a piece of poop. Even with the airhole drilled out it is wank. Aye, I got one too...
