Noble owners: what is the average voltage drop you guys are getting? Also, are any owners of some the early serials getting any pitting or corrosion?

I did a battery check on a fresh charge, and got 4.04, put it in the mod, and was getting 3.98.

Edit: just cleaned the Atty and am getting a 4.00. Needles to say, the drop is miniscule.

I see no pitting at all on mine.

I'm having some issues, any advice would be awesome. On a 1.2ohm coil I'm getting about a .7v drop. I'm measuring with a multimeter by taking the batt out testing it, then putting it back it, firing it, and testing it by putting the leads on the pos post and neg screw. Is that giving me an accurate reading? And if it is, is there something I can do to improve the numbers?

The thing is, I have some pitting/corrosion that developed in my bottom switch casing. I don't know how it happened, it was with someone for about a month and that developed. I tested the resistance of the switch itself, and it doesn't have any resistance so I don't know if that is the issue or not. .7v drop may be accurate considering the low ohm coil, but I'm not sure. My brass contacts look good, and there's some noalox on my threads.

That drop with SS wick and coil, or without? If its with, it makes sense to me. Maybe someone else could confirm.

Yeah using oxidized 325 mesh 28 gauge at 1.2 ohm. .7-.8 v drop. I just didnt know if those numbers were average for the noble with mesh and low ohm or if there was just something with my device causing additional voltage drop. Are you using silica or ceramic?

Neither, I use SS mesh. When I measured the device I didn't have a wick and coil in it.

I see the same drop when measured using the method you used... I assume its due to the resistance between positive and negative.

You are measuring the voltage drop of your battery under load. If you want to measure the conductivity of your mod, remove the coil and measure voltage at the two posts. Compare the voltage to that of the battery to see the drop of the mod.

Link works again. I really wanted to trade in my atty for a new anodized one until I read their little disclaimer on how the new swapped out atty will not line up with my original tube and button. Has anyone swapped it out and had this problem?

From the link:
"Exchange Details
The new atomizer is at no cost to you (except the cost of shipping it to us)
Switch / Airhole alignment may not align properly (Read below)
Once submitted, instructions will be emailed to you
Alignment Notice: each atomizer, battery tube, and switch are a set. The alignment of the switch grooves and atomizer air hole will most likely not align perpendicular once replacing the atomizer."

I wouldnt say they wont line up, just that they may not. and prolly more than likely wont, but better than having aluminum leaching into your juice.
with as big of an oversight as the bare metal exposed in the juice, I think it should have been a full replacement of the device or a send it for anodizing the old one to bring to current specs for safety reasons

it would make sense considering that they could easily rebuff and resell the product after anodizing it... well, they'd have to re-serialized it also.

maybe they could have said, send the unit in and we will anodized it and send it back. this would, however, take more time but the wick would align.

or better yet, give the buyer the option.

Hello fellow Noble 1 owners. Been using my Noble 1 for about two weeks now and I'm loving it. Was cleaning it earlier and I accidentally dropped one of the black o-rings that go on the bottom of the center pin down the drain. Clumsy me. Has this happened to anyone? I PMed vap3 to see if I can a replacement but is there any other place I can find this size o-ring? Thanks in advance guys.
