MVP2/VV3 ohm check?

[davidrollysonjr]

I am looking to start rebuilding my ProTank2. I have both the MVP2 & VV3. They both read ohms of my current tanks. Can I just use that to test my ohms on my rebuilds? I'm guessing I can. But, I figured I would check here in the name of safety.

That should work fine. I use my vamo to check the ohms of my new coils all the time, when I am feeling to lazy to go out to the garage to get my multimeter that is.

I have not actually got my meter out to test how accurate either of them are. I plan on doing it if I can remember to throw my meter(s) in my lunch box before I leave work.

I have heard stories of "reliable and accurate" all the way to "do not trust them"

I may just order a cheap ohm checker just in case lol! At least to see if they are accurate.

a cheap ohm checker - accurate.

That may just just give you the delta between two inaccuracies.

I have the VV3, I have the MVP2 I have my $200 meter in my lunchbox, I will check when I get home.

I use my MVP2 to check ohms, but not sure if it's 100% accurate!

It should be fine, especially if those are the devices you are going to use them on. They will read the resistance and adjust power accordingly (VW mode) so it should not be an issue.

I have an eVic, 2 iTaste VVs (v2), 2 iTaste VVs (v3) and an iTaste VTR. What I have noticed is that the eVic and the VV v2 are pretty consistent, BUT the VV v3 and VTR (when it works properly) are consistently +/- .1 ... What I mean is this, the eVic and VV v2 will read my 2.2ohm coil as 2.2 ohms, BUT the VTR and VV v3 will read the exact same coil as 2.3 ohms ... each group remains consistent though. I suspect this has to do with the power sensing algorithms, and either rounding up or down according to the device (purely speculation though).

Either way, it should not matter for the purposes you want to use it for. The readings should be close enough to keep you in the safe zone!

As always, YMMV!

Good luck, HTH!
