kangertech 0.2 ohm atomizer not registering

[newton927]

I have a kangertech kbox nano, and 0.2 ohm replacement coils (disposable atomizers) and, when I screw them on too tightly either it will register but after firing it will display 0.0ohm, or it won't register at all unless it's loose enough to, preventing the guard from being screwed on over it, so I'm wondering why they won't work? the only difference that is apparent between the atomizers is that the ones that came with the kit are labeled 5i and the replacements labeled 5k, I can't find anything online about this and a website said nano is supposed to fire 0.3 (what it reads when it does register) 0.5 (0.6) and 1.5 (1.6) all of my atomizers register a point above their resistance, which I believe is normal... what do I do?

I don't think I understand clearly what you are saying but

if the nano is supposed to fire 0.3,
then sounds like it would not fire 0.2

...


otherwise, at first it was sounding like a depressed centerpin problem
(compounded by low ohm coils)

sounds like the .2 will fire when it has a bad connection(you leaving it loose) raising the resistance of the .2 coil by at least .1.

Use .3 or higher coil.

well what I mean by that is that it displays a point above the resistance meaning if I had a 0.3 coil, it would probably read 0.4 on my box, I thought .2 ohms would work fine in this, so I'm not sure if its these atomizers or the box that's rejecting them

another difference from the atomizers that came with the kit, these replacements have a smaller pin at the battery end, 5k on them, this is puzzling me because I can't find anywhere online that specifies what "type" they are, and I'm assuming my device requires the 5i atomizers..

What I am saying it that the Kbox Nano is only supposed to work with coils down to .3 ohms.
So it should not work at all with a .2 coil. By leaving it loose you are raising the resistance sometimes to where it will fire. This is not a good thing for the mod or the tank.

For the actual resistance of a blister pack coil to be off by .1 ohms is not unusual.

thank you, wish I'd known this sooner, before I ordered the .2's
