How do I find out what the voltage drop of my mech is?

You need a Inline Voltmeter or 521 Tab Master....Test Output without Atty on with fresh batteries and then with atty on and then see the difference.

Good to see what ohms you are running

Test the battery see what what your volts are

Red on positive post black on the negative post fire the bitch up

The gap is your drop

Wouldnt you need to find it for the Mod your also using? Not just the RDA?

You can't test your drop with our a load

Seeing it looks like I can't post tonight to dam long in the truck
Well if the battery is putting out 4.05 like mine in the pic then you put it in our mod then test under load at the pins on ur RDA would that not be testing the drop from the battery throw your mod and at your RDA under load.

You are testing voltage drop without a load. it merely shows how conductive the atty and mod are when paired. Easy way to spot a problem before coiling up. (dirty switch, Et Cetera).

With the RDA on the ohm reader was only showing because the lower the ohms the higher the drop is you shod test at 1ohm coil

Am I missing something here I have a .16 ohm coil on that test as shown on the tester

I have a stand alone ohm reader. I know my Atty reading. I'm trying to see if I messed my mech when I put a patina on it. Seems weak.

That would be a good test for a Regulated Device, for a Mech Device you also need to test with with the Mech, RDA and a Build to check the Voltage Drop Overall

Yeah. I forgot about the inline ohm readers. I'll grab one of them. Then I'll know my system

Ya coil in the red on positive black on negative posts that's what I did on the under load part of the test
