My second regulated mod was a Clouper 30 watt. Not sure the model. Probably less than seven months ago. It had been sitting for a couple of months, with no battery installed. Actually used very lightly and usually at 25 watts or less.
Put a battery in it for the first time in a month and popped on a Veritas. vaped at 20 watts then started going up a wat or two at a time. Then, I noticed the ohms reading was 1.2 ohms. I know I had two coils each at 1.2 so I figured one may have come undone somehow. put the atty on my omnitester/ build stand and for giggles, checked the build. Reading is 0.6 ohms. Even checked with my Craftsman multimeter and got 0.6.
Figured a loose coil connection and tightened the mounting of the coils. Back on the Clouper and still getting 1.2??? Check again with multimeter and getting 0.6. Oh yea, even with a fresh battery, verified at 4.19v with meter, the little battery indicator shows less than half a charge left. I did clean the contacts and apply some DeOxit.
Seems to vape OK, same as on one of my mech mods. Is the chip getting ready to take a dump with so little use?
