What he is saying is that if you hook up a inline volt metter to your LT, you are not going to get more than 3.7/3.8volts if you are using a 1.5 DC, reguardless what you set the LT to. This has been proven in many youtube vids. You are saying you are getting different TH if you change the volts on the LT and using a 1.5. Unless your LT is faulty, thats really not possible.

I just ordered a volt meter from madvapes. I'm going to do some testing with different ohm DC's, to actually see whats achieved.

True true....but I THINK what the lava tube does that an ego battery does not...it pushes more amps. More amps is going to also create a bigger th. Another plus is extended battery life..

Check out phil's video...on the vv mod

I actually do own a lava tube and did some testing the other day and i found that at least with mine that under a 2.0 load it seemed to hit a wall at around 4.2 volts. Under a 2.5 load I was able to get the full range of voltage.

Thats about what i figured.... bottom of page on this link is an ohm's calculater...

I did some tests today my self... my lava tube won't let my 2.5 ohm dc go above 4.9 volts. It should go to 6... arrrg... But its does let my 1.7 ohm resurrector go to almost 4.2 volts, which is awsome.

My 1.7ohm resurrector meters out at 1.8.. if I set my Lt to 4.2, it will let me go no higher than 3.91 and then drops to 3.88 while vaping. Still better than an eGo I guess.

Another thing I'm fining on my resurector is that is doesn't get boosted. I only get 4.1-4.2v on a fresh battery. If my battery goes down to 3.8, so does the voltage while vaping the resurrector, and down to 3.5, so does the ressurector... wierd..
