510 Regular Atomizer and Low-Resistance. Can You SEE a Difference Between the Two?

[MtnLioness]

Had a question: I have a Joye eGo. Can you see a difference between a reg atomizer and a low-resistance one? I ordered one from Mapvapes and it looks identical to my other atomizers.

Thanks! Also--it tastes burnt right out of the box. Any suggestions?

Check the battery connector. The LR one's usually have "LR" stamped on it.

Oh, I love my LR atty's on 3.7 volts. You have to keep them moist. Drop a few drops on the atty and then do your thing. I like both drip tips and with a cartridge. Some say they don't last as long as regular atty's, but I've found as long as they are wet, they last.

If it is not stamped some place, I would mark one of them in a way that you will remember.

Thanks for the quick responses and tips! There is no mark on it (hmm...so how does one know they're getting a LR? Can't really tell a difference).

LR should put out more vapor. You can always check it with a multimeter. LR should be around 1.5 ohms

I have a few identical ones also, the multimeter is the only way I know of to tell em apart.Other than taste and I dont like to rely on taste.

Yeah, I think I'm getting more vapor. I was hoping the LR would be obvious. I don't have a multimeter.

Add a dot of red fingernail polish or paint somewhere or scratch LR (grin).

I know that LR atty's may burn out flavors more than standard 510 atty's but, what about the taste? Do you tried, for example, TW juice with those LR atty's?

This may sound extreme but the best way to know if it is truly LR is to buy a cheap digital multimeter from radio shack. All LR attys are not created eaqual. I always check new attys. Have sent a few back and been refunded because a few of them were 1.9 ohms not 1.5 to 1.7 ohms. A multimeter is like a stethoscope for your PV, always a good idea to have one.

Crap just saw where someone suggested the same thing. Oh well. It can also be judged by performance alone. There is a significant difference. If you have a good LR atty, you won't need to test resistance with a meter to know it. Hope that helps.

Harbor Freight has multimeters for under $5. Thats what I have and it works fine.
