Until recently I have only had 1 hybrid mech mod in my large collection of many different mods. When I wanted to check my battery life on any of my other non-hybrid mech mods with an inline voltmeter everything was fine. The first time I used the voltmeter to check the battery life on my hybrid mod the battery instantly stopped working and would not work on any other non-hybrid mech mods and would not register in my charger either. I now own 7 hybrid mech mods and being able to check the battery life on them would be very convenient. However, I am apprehensive to check my hybrid mech mods with a voltmeter because I don't want to kill any other batteries. Do hybrids short out batteries somehow when using a voltmeter? Was this just a coincidence (that seems very unlikely though)? Jeff

    Does your online voltmeter have a protruding center pin? If no, the answer is “yes” but only for that particular inline voltmeter
    WOW, I can't believe I was that ignorant!!! The center pin is not protruding far enough for a hybrid. I have been vaping long enough to know better than to use a hybrid only if I have a long enough protruding center pin on my tanks 510 connection. Thanks for stating the obvious, Jeff
