I know that you do not need a LR atty with the Buzz but for those that do use one, what is your fave volt setting for maximum taste and vapor without blowing them?
Best Voltage for LR atty

lr is designed for 3.7v
on just that amount of voltage they already pop a lot faster.

I guess I should have been clearer with my question, I know what voltage is recommended by the manufacturer. My question is for Buzz owners, wondering if anyone has used different settings with them.
I have used 4.1 with the EM 510 LR with good results, and was then able to crank it back down to 3.7 and it still worked. Just wondering what others have experienced with the variable voltage mods and these attys. Thanks

depends how warm you like your vapor.
watts = voltage/ohms x voltage
more watts = more heat.
at 3.7V, i enjoy a resistance of 1.8 to 2 ohms, which will give me ~ 6.8 to 7.5 watts

Here's a chart to illustrate what ejoker's talking about.

I've only been vaping for six weeks. I was noticing a huge difference between the devices I was trying out. The plain 510 was lacking most of the time. My eGo tasted pretty good with most flavors. I bought a non-battery pass-thru that puts out a constant 5.1 volts and while it made a lot of vapor it killed most of the flavor. What seemed odd was the pass-thru I bought for my car (the cheap kind with a battery box) by far produced the best combination of flavor, throat-hit, and vapor.
I got curious and got out the multi-meter and found the PT with the battery box was producing 4.3 volts. At first I didn't think 3.7 to 4.3 to 5 volts would make all that much difference. But it does!
I'm still waiting for my Buzz (it's in the mail, WooHoo!).
I really look forward to adjusting things to my taste. I plan on adjusting where I like it best and then measuring, instead of setting a specific voltage and then comparing.
So far, with my fixed voltage devices, I have noticed that I like lighter flavors (tobacco and Mtn Dew) at lower wattages [low 6 watts] and thick, heavy flavors (german choc and other desert flavors like english toffee) at a higher wattage [mid 7's].
But I expect my taste to drive my settings, not the other way around. The chart is not my idea - I copied it from others here on ECF...

I use 4.5 with the LR 510 and they last a long time. Perfect v for them IMO.
But the EM5 LR have lasted me almost a month at a time..
I dont know about other brands. I tried the 1.5 ohm attys and they do pop pretty fast for me... These last a long time..

I am running some 901 LR attys I just got from EM and I am set @ 3.7 volts . I am testing them out right now just got 50 of them .
I run mine at 3.7 and for those way hot LR attys I turn it down about 1/2 turn and it calms them down without that burn.
PS: I have lost all my LR attys on other Mods.
I have not lost one yet on the Buzz. It likes them and I guess the constant voltage helps.
Another reason why I love this thing.....now for that Silver or Black....
