Stocking up

[ProtoType]

For those that are considering stocking up regardless by being scared by the big bad wolf (FDA) or for personal reasons, I have a question.

Do you guys test all the parts right away for a good amount of time or just leave them in their package on a shelf when needed?

Obviously, I am only talking about spare parts. I haven't tested my spare attys.

test them the day you receive them......IMO

I fire them up and then volt test batts and ohms test atty's

I have just begun stocking so when I do begin receiving my stuff I will be testing... cant be thinking I have spare parts only to find out they are duds

I hope by "fire them up" you don't mean to burn the attys. That's why you check them with the meter, so you don't burn off the primer. The primer is there for long term storage.

just a quick one....2-5 seconds......that primer stays for awhile

I leave mine undisturbed. I won't know how they are for a while. My present atty is going on four months.

How do you test with a meter? Is that just a standard voltage meter? What should it read? Did I miss that thread or sticky?

Tori;
It's a sticky in the Technical Issues Forum. Check out the thread, and if you have a question, post it. Help is there.

Cheers;

Same here. I check my batteries, but I'm leaving my attys alone. I'm going on three months with the same atty.

What they said is what I do. Why wait a month just to find out you have a bad part, TEST THEM AS SOON AS YOU GET THEM. JMHO

Seems to me from reading these posts,and from personal use and observation,that atomizers are lasting longer these days....The one thing one needs to stock up on IMO is Juice, if your using Nic Juice that is!The Wiz!(Sorry for "quoting" the previous poster)

another thing to note is some of the modders believe these may be LI-PO batts which should not be stored at full capacity....more like 50% (for what its worth)

I would never vapetest an atty and then shelve it. Forget the warranty.
