Its the sigelie ohm meter, the one you can use with USB. The connection doesn't have a movable pin. I think its probably bad. I'll contact the vendor.

I have a DMM just not quite sure how to use it. Always stayed away from electricity for the most part. Could you tell which DMM ohm setting I should use to check coils beforehand!?
Ya... that shouldn't be with that one.. Most likely a bad meter

The setting at 6:30 - 200 Ohm.
Touch your leads together first to let the meter zero out, or, if it doesnt have a 'zero' function, it'll at least show you what resistance your leads have and you can subtract that from your coil's reading. IE, if you touch the leads and the reading settles on 0.02, you would subtract .02 from whatever reading the coil is. (1.82 would be 1.82-.02=1.8 ohms)
I should stay out of the threads when people ask what PV should I get. I read through and inevitably someone will suggest an MVP 2 and then a Prothingy owner will take a dump on them.
Why can't all us Vapers just get along!

That's the funny part Midnite, they just get even MORE uppity if you tell them that. I have no problem with Prothingy owners, but if you suggest ANY other device to a newbie, they take it as a knock on their device.
Vape what you like, but don't tell others that your device is best...too subjective a topic!
Willy Wonka said it best, "We are the Music Makers and We are the Dreamers of Dreams"
Because it's the internet and everyone's opinion is right according to them. Try visiting a political forum...this place is a breeze! LOL
Hey Capt. which one would you recommend for cheap cause that's me? I read somewhere that a digital multi meter would not read sub ohm's is that not true? Thanks in advance

I got a cheapo from harbor freight. To be honest, I don't know how low it will go. Never tried.
and another great thing about the MVP...everyone already has the perfect Mod holder for it, the simple "Shirt Pocket"
That's good for the guys, but women have a problem with it!
I guess I just became part of this group..

Welcome to the Innokin Army Midniteoyl, it's good to see you over here!

That depends... Is your shirt pocket sitting on top, or hanging?
Y'all use your bras for everything else. I'm sure it'll do for this purpose too.

My first convert was female. Seems she had a couple hidden pockets. The eGo would disappear on one side and her phone on the other.
I could make use of vape underpants. They'd need a 36-hour battery, a 30 ml reservoir and a hose that you could pull up through your shirt. This could probably be cobbled together with spare parts from a retirement home.

There you go:
Connect the black test lead to the jack marked "Common" or "-"; connect the red test lead to the jack marked with the Ω (Ohm symbol) or letter "R" near it.
To check the resistance of your atomizers:
1. Turn your multimeter on and select the lowest Ohms setting, usually 200Ω.
2. Look at the display; the left side of the screen should display number 1.
3. First, test the resistance of your leads. Touch to two leads together, firmly, and wait for numbers to stabilize. On the right side of the screen, you should see a number between 0.0 and 0.4, or so. This is the resistance of your leads. Remember that number.
4. Now, to test your atty. Position your carto firmly on your desk; you don't want it to slip and slide all over the place. Touch one lead to the hole in the center of the atty and the other lead to the threads. Again read the display after the numbers have stabilized.
5. Subtract the resistance of your leads (#3) from the resistance of your atty(#4). This is the resistance of your atomizer.
This process takes some getting used to. Steady hand helps. Just keep practicing and you'll figure it out.
There are many tutorials on Youtube--watch them if you're a visual learner:
I like this one by GeekGirlVaper:
If you only want to check the resistance of your atomizers, you may want to consider buying this Atomizer and Cartomizer Ohm Meter--a very nifty, albeit single use, device:
It can be used with all native 510 and 901/808 connectors; extensions or adapters are needed to test other atomizers (including eGo-threaded heads, which require a 510>eGo adapter). Many vendors carry them, including Smoktech, MadVapes, IndyVaporShop and others.
If you own an APV that checks the resistance of your atomizers, like MVP, Zmax, eVic or ProVari, you don't even need a multimeter.
Quality control for the product definitely needs to improve. The front mounted tank/bladder leaked twice leading to some embarrassing scenes in public places. However when the rear mounted battery vented...
