3 ohm atomizers reading at 1.3 ohms????

[MiamiMom63]

I just got my order from Avid Vapers of 4 of their 3 ohm bridgeless Cisco spec atomizers and all 4 of them are registering on my Provari at 1.3 ohms??? They won't even fire on my Provari. At first I thought maybe somehow the extension I had could be affecting it, so I took the extension off and tried again. Again, 1.3 ohm reading. Does anyone know what may be the problem? Is it really possible that I got 4 bad atomizers or could my Provari be messed up? I am sooo bummed. And yes, I put 6 drops in and waited about a minute before trying all 4 of them. I'm an experienced dripper and have never had this problem before, but I just recently bought their 3 ohm atomizer that worked fine but it wasn't bridgeless and decided I would get 4 more of the bridgeless ones. Could they have somehow been messed up when they were debridged?

Hmmm. LR and bridgeless attys are almost always a DOA only warranty and when I get them I'll meter them before using with a multimeter. I'd guess you'll have no joy in attempting to return them, unfortunately, since you 'used' them and despite how you actually did use them, there are specific instructions for using them (as you know) for good reason. You'd almost have to have a video to prove otherwise. That said, you may very well have gotten a bad batch. It happens..... I'd try them on another batt or checking them on a multimeter before throwing them out.
