My Beyond Vapes Beacon mech tube mod came in the mail, and I like it a lot. When I'm vaping on it, though, my one little lingering worry is, what if the coil comes loose from a post in the atomizer? Just wondering if there is any chance of short circuit in that scenario, or does it create an open circuit where current just stops flowing or only flows when the wire is connected to both posts? It seems to me the latter would be the case and the mod would just not fire, or only fire sporadically if the wire still made partial contact, but to no ill effect. Still, I want to be sure.
Other than that, I think I'm all set for safety? I'm running a modest 1.17 ohm kanthal single coil; Samsung 25 amp 18650 with no flaws in the wrap or the top insulator; I check my ohmmeter routinely; everything is making good contact; I understand Ohm's Law and the relationship between current, resistance, voltage. Any other safety measures I'm missing here?
Sorry if these are a stupid question, open circuits vs short circuits etc, but I like my jawbone intact so I want to be cautious, even if it means obsessively checking every 5 minutes to see that the coil is securely screwed to the posts.
