I got it in the mail this morning and am LOVING it. Is there like a way to calculate the right volts for the correct ohms that you want to use say like I want to use a 3.0 ohms carto what would u want to start the volts at.
Got mine TODAY....

Awesome, that looks pretty sick. Congrats 
I use the ohm's law calculator to check what voltage I need to be at. Its basically a combination of ohms and volts into watts, which is the actual power thats going to the atomizer.
Just plug in your volts and ohms to check your power(watts), or you can put in your watts and ohms and it will tell you what voltage will achieve that power. Sometimes you have to enter it twice and hit reset.
Check it out...most people vape anywhere from 6-12 watts. I personally like 7-8, but thats just me. So for example, say I want to vape at 7.5 watts, and my Provari is reading my ohms at 3.0. I plug in 7.5 watts, and 3 ohms for power and resistance respectively, and I get about 4.7 volts. So I crank my Provari up to 4.7 volts and bam, I'm at my sweet spot.

Thanks Just want to kinda get a idea to where to start...How would u calculate a dual coil carto thou? add the whaterever ohms by 2? So if it was a dual coil 2 ohms would I calculate it at a 4 ohms?

I am not math or tech inclined (am challenged lol).... so after more than a year of vaping, i still don't understand watts.
but i just get a feel for what voltage range goes with what resistance.
i.e. if i have an LR (not Provari material)... i know it must be in the lower range of voltage... 3.2 to 3.8 or so. Some people are using Dual Coil carto's LR at high volts... that's another animal.
SR attys and carto's etc will be where the Provari shines imo. 2.2 to 3.2 Ohms in the 3.6 to 4.5v range.
HV (3.2 to 3.6 Ohm) are nice with the Vari too; at 4.2 to 5.7v
HV (4.+ Ohms) will go up in voltage from there.
My specs are estimates and it all depends on the juice, the particular atty/carto/tank, and your mood.... wow, this is unscientific!
but that's the great thing about VV...

Watts are good, I was skeptical on the whole thing at first but it helped me understand that theres no difference between LR and HR and all that stuff. Its the combined ohms + volts that equals the power.
4.6-.7 volts @ 3ohms is exactly the same (rounded) as 2.0 ohms @ 3.8 volts, one isn't going to be hotter or more powerful, its the same thing. Except for the current thats going through the unit, which is another story, ultimately that mid-high range ohms will use less power than the opposite. But idk, I feel like once you figure out your wattage everything gets a lot easier, and though it will vary from juice to juice its always a great starting point.
