Will this work to show voltage to the atty under load?

[mcglock19]

What I'm trying to do is create a voltage indicator that I can screw inline in between my "battery" and my dual coil carto. I have a multimeter so I know what voltage my variable volt ecigs are at but I want to know what there each putting out under load and what the voltage drop is with dual coil cartos. I'm using the same voltage indicator a lot of you use (bought from madvapes). What my pic above shows is wiring it basically in between the battery connector and the 510 atty connector. When I fire the ecig with an atty attached would this give me the load voltage? Thanks.

The way that is wired it would be giving you battery voltage full time and then load voltage when the atty is activated...all depending on where your switches will go.

EDIT: Oops...I see your not putting it in a mod...sorry...skip the part about the switches.

The truth, no worries.

Yes, your wiring is correct. You will get an indication of the voltage you're actually getting at the atomizer when powered. MadVapes does sell an inline voltmeter for this purpose. Don't know if you just haven't come across it or you are aware of it and just want to build your own tap.

Guess it's time to retire my original load test adapter.

I think though RocketMan's take is worth exploring. It will check any voltage, high or very low and ohms too.

Like Craig said....why not just get the volt meter from Madvapes or get a box from Digi Key and build it yourself?
