thisbetterwork Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 How do you tell what voltage it's set on? What's the position of the screw for each? Thanks. Smokie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAYVAPE Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 You mean you don't have a multimeter? That would definately be one way to find out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisbetterwork Posted October 6, 2010 Author Share Posted October 6, 2010 WTF is a multimeter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAYVAPE Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 (edited) This isn't looking good... LOL. A multi-meter: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Equus-3300-Hands-free-Digital-Multimeter/14644665 There are alot of them to choose from... but a cheapo will do just fine. Then you can test the voltage of your device... and the resistance of your attys too! I highly recommend you get one... especially if you have the AV Joker.

thisbetterwork Posted October 6, 2010 Author Share Posted October 6, 2010 oh great, more szhit to go buy. thanks for the heads up. is there a rule of thumb for the screw position though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 (edited) IF you dont have a multimeter, you can buy a DVM from VaprLife. I have both and the DVM is just as accurate as the multimeter and is more convenient. a full turn (360 degrees) = roughly .2 V, although this does change slightly depending on where the voltage is currently at. http://vaprlife.com/jokerdvm.html Edited October 6, 2010 by Burn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAYVAPE Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 That's the kicker... knowing what it's set at right now. Do they pre-set them to 5 volts Burn? I know the Buzz was/is 4.5... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisbetterwork Posted October 6, 2010 Author Share Posted October 6, 2010 (edited) thanks. sooo, does anybody know what the dam joker comes preset at? Edited October 6, 2010 by thisbetterwork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eruelas Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Mine came preset at 5v, checked it with the DVM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAYVAPE Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Yeah, I'm just sure it's set at 5 volts. What are you wanting to set it at? What are you planning on using... atty or carto? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 That's the kicker... knowing what it's set at right now. Do they pre-set them to 5 volts Burn? I know the Buzz was/is 4.5... 5v confirmed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisbetterwork Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Thanks for the info gang. the joker actually isn't mine. i oredered it for a friend who's new to vaping, and he decided to go with the joker. I'm jealous! i wish i had an experienced friend as i would've ordered the joker off the bat instead of the ego. The joker is next on my list. It's awesome. He's using cartos. He started at the preset 5v but dialed it down slightly. Does it really matter if you "know" what voltage it's at? I mean, as long as he doesn't use LR atty/cartos it's all good at any voltage it'll provide correct? I'm thinking of trial and error for him as he's strapped for cash right now.

DAYVAPE Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Oh that's totally fine to do it that way. We know what they are from the supplier... then just give it a couple turns left and be good to go. At least that's how I prefer my cartos... 4.6 - 4.8 is great!

thisbetterwork Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 this bastage is rubbing the awesomeness of his joker all in my face. bahahaha. i gotta get one pronto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 LOL If your not the type of control freak that HAS TO KNOW, as I am, simply turning it to get to where you like it works very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAYVAPE Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Oh I hear that.... I have to know too! If I'm adjusting it, to say, 4.5 volts and I turn the screw some and it reads 4.596 I will make certain to tweak it till t's 4.5 even! Madness I tell ya!
