Finding Smokers

So this one has been bothering me for a while. How does anyone figure out they are a Smoker? I'm imagining the process of Allomantic testing in pre-Collapse days was the kid gets  beaten half to death to snap them, then is given metal vials while a Seeker stands by to detect any burning. But that Seeker won't detect the Copper. There's no visible sign of it burning either. So how does anyone find out if it worked or not?

The new smoker would feel the metal burning.

In case he does not to recognize that metal is burning...

Well, you put the Seeker outside the range of the Coppercloud and put another Allomancer (not Coppercloud, obviously) inside the range of the Coppercloud.

Then the Seeker can feel:

  • one source of pulses => kid is not an Allomancer
  • two sources of pulses => kid is an Allomancer
  • nothing at all => kid is a Coppercloud
