Really need help w my AFS V3

[Titan Vapes]

Ok so im using a SS GGTS with AFS V3, i think im losing ohms somewhere because when i use a normal atty it vapes great without using the AVS. However when i use my AVS i get very low voltage, i have cleaned everything, tried diffrent attys, used noalox... Nothing is working, can the ring used to control air drop the voltage? This is the only part i have not throughly cleaned, also the piece that holds the atty on my AVS is brass, is the silver one better for conductivity? Please let me know what i can try to fix this small issue. Upfront i will say im sure this is my fault as Imeo makes nothing but outstanding products, i just need someone to tell me what i am doing wrong. Thanks in advance.

I don't really know. When I had that AFS v3 I used it only on my Provari and it worked great. Are you doing HV? and it's dropping very low?

Maybe your threads are to coated and creating a loss?

Ya im using 2 tenergy rcr 123A lifepo 4's

Does the air ring create a loss in voltage?

 

[silentt]

the air ring? are you talking about the air control ring that covers the holes? I don't know how that would decrease voltage.

so you are trying to vape 6 volts? how are you testing the voltage with the AFS?

 

[Poppa D]

Did you snug up the center pin on the center post of the atomizer? I suspect your atomizer is tight but the Center post might not be.

 

[Titan Vapes]

Yes its very snug. Yes im talking about the air control ring... I have not actually tested the voltage i just know its not as strong. Is there a way to use a multimeter to test the AVS? What setting do i put the multimeter?

 

[Poppa D]

To test your voltage with a meter set the dial DCV 20.
Ohms: 200

How do you know you are getting any voltage at all? A common mistake is to not unscrew the connector in the Collection Tank enough so it can make contact with the atty post extending from the AFS. Try unscrewing the CT connector some more until you are sure it is making contact (i.e. the AFS doesn't screw down as far into the CT as it did before) and retest it. See Imeo's video on the AFSv3 here: YouTube - ‪afsv3‬‏

To trouble shoot voltage, the best way is to get one of the voltage meters from COV here: COV Voltage Meter

It will give you a readout of the volts delivered to the AFS on one end, and by connecting the AFS on the other end it will tell you the volts underload, the voltage your atty is firing at.

The meter has 510 connections so you will also need a 510 battery extender to screw on the GGTS and a short 510 to 901 adapter to connect your AFS on the other end. GL
