Depends. You using more batteries to facilitate that higher voltage?

If not, no real benefit as far as the battery's concerned.

Edit: Just saw the thread title. Only difference between VV and VW will be if the device is actively checking the atty resistance during use. In that case the wattage output won't change during a pull on VW while on VV with the V being steady and the resistance changing, the watts will change.

Though VV and VW both do the same thing. They both set the voltage to acquire the desired vape. Any difference in actual use is likely to be so minute it's imperceptible.

Sent from my device.

its also easier to tell someone else what power to try something at in watts, than volts as if they have a different resistance thier watts could be entirely different than yours. lets go with a aspire tank head. you are using 1.8 ohm heads and using 4.2 volts (10 watts) and tell your buddy to try XX's YY flavor at 4.2 volts. he tries it but is not satisfied with it because there is way less vapor than what you are using because his coil head is a 2.4 ohm coil. so his watts would be 7 watts. if you told your buddy to try it at 10 watts, he would need 4.9 volts to get the same power at the coil.
