Ohm Voltage Meter for Box Mods

Coil Master 521 Tab - VapoRider
just came in the mail, $26...this is a heavy box mod, the Tesla Invader III, with a Wismec Theorem atty, and I didn't even have to hold it to keep it from tipping over ... the Theorem atomizer has the "stock" notch coil in it, supposed to be a .20 ohm, this is after 2 weeks of use and reads .23 "o" for ohms.

Above photo...the coilmaster 521 Tab reading the Tesla mod, that doesn't have a screen, at 3.77 "v" volts, Tesla says the lowest setting should be 3.7 volts, which is where I had it when I fired it in this photo, on the money...speaking of money, Ive quit smoking analogs for 5 weeks now, that's a savings of $250 for me, so I bought a gadget I really didn't need, Happy vaping.

Above photo...this is the "voltage checker" simply screws on to any 510 female thread PV mod or APV and plugs right in, with the coilmaster 521 tab having spring loaded center pins on both ohms tester and voltage testers, I don't think even with a box mod there will ever be an alignment problem with the two pieces of hardware hitting each other and not being able to test the voltage drop between the PV and the Atomizer.

I forgot to order an 18650 battery for this sucker...so I used the included usb adapter and plugged it into my laptop port, and was able to do everything (ohms, voltage, and fire the atty with my mod attached testing voltage drop) except fire the atomizer doesn't work without a good battery, or maybe a higher voltage usb port.

So there it is. Finally a picture, proof, of a box mod and atty mounted on a tester. That's me I guess, I have to see it to believe it. Without extensions, adaptors, and staring at a screen reading all week. Hope this helps someone that's like me.

Forgot to mention. I went to www.coil-master.net and was amazed at all the other products they produce. Low voltage items for cars, televisions, phones, etc. That said, its no wonder the 521 Tab works at a competitive price to anything else.

Wecome to ECF!

Not sure exactly what you're looking for. This might work though.

DOVPO Safe Link for Mechanical Mod and Atomizer - VapoRider

Wow, just saw this link...and it was on vaporider s site, the same site I ordered the 521 tab from...still will be getting one of these. Thank You.

(I hate juice on my mod, ever).

Ok. See. Someone else is just like me, I hate juice on my steering wheel, the empty ashtray in my truck that now holds only loose coins, the list goes on. Funny. You know, Eskie, there has to be some readers out there thinking, "come on, really, juice is going to get on the atty and mod, regardless"...but I say some hand sanitizer and free napkins from a convenience store is the way to go for me. Or better yet. Baby wipes. Happy Vaping brother.

Hi again Coffinnail
There are lots of testers on the market built for the vaping industry but if you are using a regulated variable mod why buy one?

Hi Smoke_too_much. Thank you for your input. You have helped to ease my anxiety of blowing my self up. Seriously. Im a safety freak. I like to work hard, and fast. Don't get me wrong. But at work, I also like safety. Its been a sort of quest of mine. To be safe. And efficient. At everything I do. Happy Vaping.

Reason 1: I don't like to guess. My APV has been off by almost .50 ohms. Drop your mod on the ground, cause a short somewhere.
2: Some day soon, I want a mech PV and would like to keep my fingers and face
3: Im a carpenter, and a machinist. Not many, but some of my coworkers are missing a finger(s) or a piece of one. Not for me. Knock on wood.
4: Measure twice, cut once. You get the "gest" of it. Safety first. I like a second opinion. And will be buying another ohm/voltage meter soon. I figure every week I get to spend $50 on Vape hardware and tools. Because that's what it cost me every week for 20 years. Well if you don't count the lighters, burnt clothing and furniture. Oh and lost loves because I smelled like the bottom of an ash tray. Yuk.

Thanks again for your help.

The other day, I didn't have a battery to put in my 521 tab to do a build. So I took the supplied USB chord, which is really short, and it works flawlessly. The week before, I let a friend borrow my battery charger. So I had to use the 521 to charge one battery at a time. Works fine. Even told me the exact voltage of the battery during the whole charge cycle. Left it on over night, it automatically stops charging when the cycle is done. Awesome battery charger, and a little faster than my Nitecore NewI2.

I also used a longer power chord. From another PV. Worked good. It has the same end as the power chord for cell phones. But I should probably stick to the supplied power chord CoilMaster sent me. Until I learn how to test other power chords for there voltage drops and inputs. Vape on.

I don't have my 521 out right now, but I believe it's just a simple micro usb port, so any usb cable that fits should be fine. I find the battery in it lasts forever. The only time there's any significant drain on the battery is when you're dry burning, and even rebuilding/rewicking several tanks at a time I never pay attention to the battery. I guess I should. I guess I'm just lazy about stuff like that.

Yes it is a simple micro usb port. Im going to dig out my ole phone charger chords soon Im sure. Im so lazy, I forgot where I put my LG HE4's that I used to use for all day vape. I want to dedicate them to my 521. Ill find them, some day, right where I left them. Fer sher. That's how I found out the 521 tab charges good. My new USVTC4's came in from RTDvaper.
