Well I'll be darned. I took the tip off, looked at, and put it back on, tightening the nuts down EXTREMELY tight, to the point where I thought I would break something - nothing left to lose, so why not.
As soon as I pulled the trigger I noticed the buzzing was much louder. The temp came up to 454F in no time.
So all this time I thought getting the nuts
really tight was adequate. Nope, they need to be
brutally tight.
