More voltage meters

Made from off-cuts of wood and little plastic containers.

They look great!!

Would it be difficult to make something like this, do you think??

I like the idea of being able to test before putting on to a battery/mod. (Would try one but price and location putting me off buying, lol!)

[piper1]

No not difficult at all.
All the parts can be purchased from here

I'm just waiting for some parts to arrive before i make one.

Lol, thanks for the post, think I will just have to buy the completed version.... got lost during the first bit of the instructions:

"Pull the red and black wires back into the battery box (A). Cut 76mm off of the black wire. Strip both ends and save the excess black wire for later use. Strip the end of the black wire still attached to the battery box. Pull the red wire and the battery contact attached to it out of the battery box. Cut the Extra piece of Black Wire (G) to 25mm and strip on end of it. Remove the spring from Battery Contact (C)."

lots of pulling, cutting and stripping, and thats before you get to unsoldering and re-soldering!!!

you can just use a cheap multimeter to do that Di I use one of these

having said that, I do like the look of those dedicated atomizer ohm meter kits though

do you guys think you'd be able to use the madvapes ohm meter to test eGo style atomizers with a 510/eGo adapter, or would that give inaccurate readings?

From the above link

"Extensions or adapters can be used to test other atomizers or cartomizers as well as eGo style atomizers and cartomizers."

Nice work piper1. Was it you that was after empty 35mm film canister for something like this? If so, how did you get on?

I still check every thing with a mulitmeter.

Thanks for the link, have tried using my hubby's meter and find it very fiddly trying to hold a carto etc, and get two leads in the right place, lol, still think that the 'ohm meter' would be a better option for me
