Reddit mentions of 510 808 Ohm Resistance Reader Meter

I started vaping on an unregulated parallel box mod as well. If you actually learn and pay attention to ohm's law, you're not going to kill yourself.

I started with a Tesla Invader II and a Plume Veil RDA clone.

Watch some coil building tutorials.
Maybe start here:
Then for advanced coil building from someone like Twisted Messes. I will shamelessly admit he's my all time favorite coil tutorial guy.

Make sure you use good batteries and read up on general battery safety from Mooch

Also and this is important. Get an Ohm Reader (Here for a cheap one. or here for a more expensive and much better one.)

Instead of an ohm reader you can opt for a Coil Building Station which will let you check your resistance as well as dry burn your coils. It's a much better option than building on your unregulated mod itself where a short can potentially end in you not having a mod/rda/hand anymore.

If all of this seems like too much, you can also sell that mod for a decent amount of money and pick up a cheap regulated starter kit that is pretty much plug and play like the kanger topbox or many others.


I think I've covered just about everything here, and if I haven't I'm sure someone will correct me.

Dude it's like electricity and stuff. When you have a current carrying conductor, there's resistance to flow which generates heat (used to vaporize the goo). When there's not enough of that resistance, the current goes out of control and can make that battery dun explode.

So, for vape stuff, make sure you use a sufficient gage and quantity to ensure that the resistance (in ohms) of the coils is high enough to prevent battery explosion. You can do this with a very cheap tester into which your mouth piece screws.

Good luck!
