Cartomizers changing OHMs?

[cocacola31173]

I have been using a caromizer for a couple of tanks and already seen that it was a 2.0 ohm carto. Earlier today however I noticed that my Vamo kept shutting off. I checked the ohms again and it keeps reading 1.3? And this is causing the Vamo to underload and turn off.

What causes this? I have never noticed this before. It works fine on my Ego battery at the same voltage I was using it with. All my other devices are working fine on the Vamo so I know its not that.

Thanks!

This could be an issue with the vamo. I had the same problem. Eventually it will start reading ridiculous ohms and not fire. it is caused by the center pin being pushed down to far. I am about to sent my vamo back from repair due to this problem.

Same with mine, tank works on my other devices and other tanks worked on my vamo but still 1 tank read high ohms...If this is the same problem, it will only get worse...Are u within warrenty ?

Well, as a carto gets gunked up and/or is dying, the resistance can drop. The Vamo may not be firing because the carto's resistance is too low. An eGo doesn't have that feature. Do you have another device to check the carto's resistance? If not, I would believe the Vamo and change the carto.
