Smok Baby Beast AL85 RBA (HELP PLEASE)

I'm new here, not sure if I am putting this post in the correct place or not so please bare with me.
Today I changed my coils, and I used the RBA that came in my baby beast tank kit. The shop owner, where I purchased it from, helped me and showed me how to wick the coil, so it was already done for me..
I cleaned my tank as normal, took out the old coil and installed the RBA just as I would any other by screwing it in....
Once I filled the tank with my juice and began vaping again, I noticed that it didn't pull as hard as before. I have it set at 62W and the ohms are set to 0.301...
Am I supposed to change any of that when I switch to RBA?
Also there is a lot and I mean A LOT OF SOME SERIOUS POPPING GOING ON. Does anyone know what the cause could be? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you ;)
Oh. At 2.25seconds that's when it started pulling like I wanted it to but it's also when it started popping like firecrackers :huh::gaah:

Can we see a pic of the build? I imagine it's a single spaced claption of some kind?

I took a pic with the old wick in it and I took a pic with the new wick bc I rewicked it and added more cotton.. it doesn't pop as much as before but it still doesn't pull as hard. The higher I set the wattage the more it popped but it also pulled like i liked too.

You should not post the same question in two posts it only adds to the confusion. This is what I said in the other one

You may have to bump up the power or increase the preheat. Clapton's require more power to fire. I don't use that mod so I can't help with how. The popping could ether be not enough power to vaporize all the liquid or it's leaking and flooding the coil. I suspect the former since you said it takes a few seconds to heat up before you get a good hit. Also the coils that come with it are crappy I trash canned mine.

EDIT: Sometimes Clapton's will pop as long as it's not spitting hot liquid in your mouth it's not a big problem. (especially if there not wrapped tight around the core)

I'm not a fan of the included claptons either. I installed my own twisted contact coils and I really quite like it. I should mention that I'm using the Big Baby Beast, but I don't think it makes a huge difference other than that the coils are further away from the end of the drip tip, but I would think that would be in your favor. I don't mind popping so I don't necessarily notice as much as someone that does.
