Kat.....

Maybe you already have a multimeter, IDK. If not, I still suggest a $25.00 multimeter over a dedicated ohm thingy for 510 connectors. But that's me.

I'm sure Catt or I can solder up a 510 connector tester setup if you want one...all you'd have to do is clip the probe's alligator clips to the wires. So get alligator clips for the probes too.

You don't NEED a special connector though...you can just use the probes. Sometimes it's awkward to hold though.

This way, you can also test battery voltages off the charger. And they are more accurate for ohms.

What do you think Catt?

Morning :)


Simple enough Atty. But then again, I just use the Vamo to check resistance :D

The VV Saber Touch mod came with a similar setup to set the voltage - a male 510 fitting with leads attached. I cobbled together an "adapter" quite a while ago to test systems 'under load' - a male 510 connector wired to a female 510 connector. Attach male connector to mod, atty/carto to female connector, multimeter to connecting wires and fire it up. Could measure under load V, A and Ω.
