Evic VT no atomizer found error

[daniel craig]

Last night I refilled my evic vt and screed the tank back on and the device said to atomizer found when the atomizer was connected so I just pressed the fire button a few time and after a while it fired and showed resistance of 0.25ohm (I'm using a stock 0.22ohms coil) and fired for half a pull and error came again. Then I unscrewed the Base cleaned out the 510 (was already clean) but fired up and showed me a resistance of 0.24ohms. I managed to get it to fire but the resistance reading is wrong, how can I fix it and get it back to 0.22ohms

@daniel craig , you have a loose connection / dirty connection somewhere , strip clean tighten .

 

[daniel craig]

Done all that, device works but resistance reading is wrong

Mine also reads 0.21 with a stock 0.20 coil.On my ohm meters its 0.23 and 0.24,I don't think its worth worrying about.
I had that same 'No Atomiser Found' message after taking a tank off and filing it,then I remembered watching something about the coil sometimes loosening as the base is unscrewed,that was the problem with mine.

Yeah I think that's what probably happened in my case

With use the coil resistance will change, usually it goes up as the coil gunks up etc with use.

Yeah I understand that, but my problem was that the coil was .22ohm then I just refill and the screw it back on it changed to .25 then to .24

The liquid settling in the wick can have this effect

Any solution for this?

 

[LandyMan]

Any solution for this?

Nope. Its natural to happen AFAIK

 

[deepest]

Perfectly normal i have seen it on both of my mods and ohm reader. Remember there is also some static resistance in your tank even with out the coil. So you will see variance depending on room temp and a few other factors.

Hi @daniel craig

I have a Sigelei ohm meter that has been my trusty ohm meter ever since i started building coils

When i screw in an atty to test the ohms it reads for example 0.85 ohms
If i unscrew the atty and screw it back in straight away, it sometimes reads 0.83 or 0.86.
Sometimes it reads the identical reading
When i tighten the atty on the ohm meter, it sometimes also changes by 0.01 or 0.02

@johan once told me that most of these reading devices are only accurate to about 1 or 2% or sometimes even worse if not stated explicitly in the specifications.

So maybe its not a fault just a slight inaccuracy in the ohm reader. Not saying that for sure, but maybe.

Yeah that's probably true since the reading is .1 ohm off.

If its 0.1 ohm off then there is a problem
0.01 is what i was referring to

Mines I didn't test it on an ohmeter, it is a stock coil at .22ohm I just refilled and screwed the tank back on (didn't tighten or loosen the coil) and the reading jumped ro .25ohm and then went to .24ohm

 

[deepest]

If it is a Ti or Ni coil the resistance is affected by different room temp aswell. I have seen on my VS DNA coils varying between 0.13 and 0.17 from a cold winter morning to a warm winter lunch. Atty lock resolves this issue for me.

I was in my room, the whole process was less that 2 minutes... after unscrewing the tank I pressed the button to burn of excess liquid and then screwed the tank back on and the resistance changed.

 

[deepest]

Yeah the tank/coil will cool quickly after vaping and warm up quickly even with just a split second of current through the coil. So even though you were in a room with no temp change there will be some difference from when you remove the tank after firing it to when you add cool juice and reinstall tank.

So the resistance change isn't anything to worry about?

 

[deepest]

Yip unless its a lot.

 

[daniel craig]

It was a .3 ohm change now it at .24 from .22ohm

 

[deepest]

So it was a 0.03 change Not enough to worry about i get the same thing on my subtank/dna 40 with Ni coils.

 

[daniel craig]

Refilled the Evic again and got the same error again. I locked the resistance at 0.22ohms and when I fire up and take a pull, half way through the pull it shuts off and shows 0.00ohms and doesn't fire up.

Have you tried another coil ? Also pull the tank off and pop it in an ohm reader and check that you get a reading on that.
If you have another tank with a nickel or titanium coil to test on the mod.

I did not try another coil. My problem only arises when I unscrew the tank to refill. The device will fire for a few seconds and shut off and say no atomizer found. I cleaned the connections and tried again. The problem goes away and then starts again when I unscrew the tank.
