Ohms change with use?

[silentscream]

Using an Ego V V3 (VV/VW always in watts mode) my ohms reading goes up all the time. I couldn't figure out why and now after watching it all a bit more closely and taking note of when it suddenly seems to jump up... I still have no clue.

My technical conclusion is 'it just does'. Hope that helps.

lol, guess doesn't matter,  I'm over it now, was just curious.

all my protank minis do it but iclear16s dont, guessing not MVP being broken so all good

All my protank minis do as well. No idea why. They just do. The Ego V3 gives an ohms reading every time I attach it to something and unless I've just put a new coil head in the mini protank or protank 2 it always gives me some MAD reading.

They're messing with our minds mate, we must not let them win!

Tried my mrs's protank on the mvp when realised readings where going up..... and gave no ohm reading...didn't fire either, first thoughts were 'oh ****, have I broke mvp somehow' then must be her protank has screw slightly higher so screwed down...

I came to the conclusion her coil must be well and truely fubarred, so I asked her....
...and she said 'oh yeah, I ment to ask you about that, Its not been working right today'
she had been using is without it firing, though not the same she had found it ok

It seems to me on a device capable of reading ohms the reading becomes less reliable the more you use the coil head. I suppose as it gets gunged up it's harder for the device to read which is probably fair enough. It hasn't made any huge difference to the vape it just seems weird that the ohms keep going up.
I got 7.9 ohms reading on a protank 2 tonight lol. But then it settled down, that's the other thing, the first reading is always wacky then it kind of calms down.

I stopped worrying about it a while ago tbh.

7.9!!
I was thinking the reading was probably more or less accurate, just heat and maybe gunk affecting the resistance, but I maybe(probably) don't understand it then!  I give up!

I think it just takes a while to settle down. It could be anything, the connection, the coil head, whatever, when it settles down it always vapes as it should. When the heads go bad and need to be replaced trust me you will know.
Really nothing to worry about if it doesn't affect your vape.
