Hello fellow vapors, I finally bought a multimeter for my battery's and to also check my mods and voltage drop. Well I was checking the voltage drop on my dual coil juggernaut 2 coils each around .8 ohms. Well the battery that is in the device AW 18650 measured at 3.87 volts, When installed in the device and measured 2.3x volts w/both coils, tried again this time with only only one coil measured 2.6x Volts. What im not understanding is why such a drastic voltage drop. What can I do to correct the problem....
juggernaut huge voltage drop from battery to coils Please help

Put a fresh new battery in there and measure it again. You should get higher volts.
Did, doesn't change anything. Went from 3.8v battery to 4.1 and voltage on the juggernaut changed from 2.3 to 2.62
I had a big drop with my ea. I cleaned the contacts, threads and both batt ends with alcohol and noaloxed the threads. My vul came up .3v
I'll try that when I get home. Noaloax, Is that some diaelectric grease? I can't get over the voltage drop its not like its really dirty or anything.
Noalox can be purchased at Lowes... in the electrical dept for $3. A dab will do ya. My EA was dropping .6v under load right when I got it new. After cleaning and applying Noalox, it metered a .3 drop which is an acceptable drop under load. Clean the threads with alcohol and the put a dab of noalox on them.. screw and unscrew the device to work the noalox in, then wipe it off with a tissue. Hope this helps you!
Thanks, didn't get a chance to make it to the store today. Will be out tomorrow. Would love to get another .5v or more out of it. 1.4v drop is insane!
I'm having the same problem, I'm geeting 0.8v drop with a 1.3ohm coil. Did you fix your jugg?
I cleaned the threads out and I picked up .7v still sad that its dropping 1v but at least the coils heat up in 2 seconds vs the 5-6 before.
just the tread on the switch and the removable part? I have a little dirt in mine. Did you try cleaning the brass contacts? That's what I'm think of doing but not sure how. Maybe sandpaper
