Ok anyway I got a sigeli ohm reader but no matter what I put on it it jumps numbers example I just got a pack of 2.2 ohm kanger heads for my mini pro tank 2 we put the first one on (all 3 are brand new never used) first one was jumping from 2.4 to 2.5 second one 2.2 to 2.3 and same for the third one I'm confused is there something wrong with the heads or the ohm reader?

Its only my opinion but you don't really need an ohm reader for those kinds of coils unless you're just curious.
I'm betting you vape on a variable device right? Perhaps wattage mode? if that's the case then anything you build between a 1.8 to a 2.5 will fire the same because of the power setting.

As for the flux: something is not tightened down properly. Generally on a larger Atomizer, like a genesis or a dripper. If the numbers run its means the terminal connections aren't tight.

So usually re-tighten. Then screw the coil onto the meter securely it does not have to be all the way down. 2/3 to 3/4 down is secure enough. The flip the switch. Kanger coils shouldn't have this problem at all. so if it continues regardless of kanger or a solid dripper build. Something is wrong with the internals of your meter. Nothing wrong with the Sigelei brand, I would just assume bad luck and ask for a replacement.

the ohm meter isnt a lab grade item, if it was it would cost 300$, if a coil is at the 2.49 ohm range it will bounce between 2.4 and 2.5. As for the other coils showing different readings, the quality control when making them isnt exact either. And when a coil is cold as compared to hot, the values change again. Even hi grade electronic type resistors have a 1-5% tolerance to them...

Oh no, that's not any jump; If the numbers were jumping from 0.2 to 2.2 THAT would be jumping; those numbers you quoted are not jumping, that is just normal on some multimeters/ohmreaders.
