Yes..If the button starts flashing and the vape cuts out you know you have a short..
How many coils of 0.2 did you use to get that high a resistance? How are you measuring your resistance by the way? If using a multimeter are you touching the probes together and subtract the internal resistance of the meter to the value?

A VAMO, Lavatube or similar mod is fine to try your re-buildables and rebuilt coils on because they have robust short circuit protection..
It's only the ego clone type batteries that seem to have a problem with semi-shorts, ie., where part of the coil shorts and demands high current. While many of these types do have dead short protection they do not seem to recognize semi-short situations and fry the circuitry.
The Twist and Spinner are fine too..I regularly use the Chinese genesis on a Spinner and I have regularly been using my Vertigo rebuildable with SS wicks for over 6 months and the AGA-S genesis on the Twist with no issues and when there is a semi-short, the circuit cuts off the supply without any damage.

The Lavatube is pretty generic like an ego and made by different manufacturers..
I haven't heard of a version 3 but does not mean one does not exist. The higher versions add things like higher amp (current) limit. The best one you can buy currently is the Lambo VV which is made by L rider who made the original LT.
There are other innovative LT's available in the market too which come with the controller head and two tubes. However with the Vamo entering the market with both VV & VW and performing exceedingly well, it is a choice that is hard to ignore over the LT.

Put it in your spares box..It's fine and not unsafe..The MOSFET is cooked..
Coil Rebuilds + RIVA = Bad Idea

No idea mate..
On one hand it says 2w to 15w on the other hand highest voltage you can set it to 5v. So it's quite confusing what's going on with this..Do I need my PV to tell me the date and time..Hmmm probably not..
A bit overpriced too what with the Vamo being sold for less than half the price of this kit and working reasonably well..I think I'll sit the first round out and see what happens..
