3.6v vs 3.7v

[hcour]

Been using a Volt auto battery, which is 3.6v, since I started vaping a couple months ago. I love the X2 battery but I would like to get more/better flavor from my carto's & clearo's. TH and vapor are fine, but I want flavor flavor flavor. I seem to read a lot that the most common "sweet spot" for vaping is 3.7v, and there's a whole lot out there about 3.7v devices.

Is there really that big a difference between 3.6 and 3.7 volts? Though I prefer an auto battery, I'm considering the Altsmoke BB, which gets all kinds of raves and is a 3.7 device. I love its small size and craftmanship. And the button is supposed to be one of the best.

So, will a 3.7v device give me that flav that I crave? Thanks!

I dont expect a big diff. between 0.1V to occur, (unless one is regulated--meaning constant-- and the other is not) but perhaps you should really upgrade to something bigger,like a Twist.

What ohms carto/clearo are you using on that 3.6 v device? For me, ohms is what I change. Sometimes I use an atomizer & drip for flavor. But, I keep the same battery. I'm a very frugal Cowdog.

You will soon learn to appreciate the manual battery. Most of us started on auto analog looking tiny batteries.

I also suggest trying an Ego Twist or a Vision Ego Spinner with a manual button. Trust me, that auto batt will collect dust.

The inexpensive VV devices will enable you to use cartos/clearos/tanks with many different ohm resistances. You simply twist the dial till you get the taste + vapor u like best.

As martinc said, .1v won't make that much of a difference. The sweet spot is actually 6-10 watts (generally) and how many volts it takes to get there depends on what the resistance of the feed is. With fixed voltage you'll probably be looking for 1.5 - 2.0 ohm (using 3.6/7v)

Some juice vendors have options to "double shot" when ordering, making it more flavourful by doubling up the concentrate.

If your using a high VG mix doubling may help, since VG doesn't carry flavour as well as pg

I'm not sure where you've heard 3.7 volts is considered the "sweet spot" as I have never heard that.
Usually people say the sweet spot is much higher than that.

Back in the old days before variable voltage all you would here was that 5.0 volts was the sweet spot.

The only reason there are so many 3.7 volt batteries out there is because that is how lithium-ion batteries have always been made.
And that was the case long before they started being used for electronic cigarettes.

I use 2.3 ohm atomizers, and I have a Chuck that was built for 3.7 volt 18650 batteries.
But once I went to using 5.0 volt NiMH batteries I could never go back to 3.7 volts.

And when I use my Twist I nearly always have it dialed all the way up to 4.8 volts, and never under 4.2 volts.
Your mileage may vary though.
