One of my Midnight Blue VVs is turning chrome. It has gotten loose and rolled around the car so many times, the rubberized paint coating is flaking off.
Halo VV???

I'm thinking of getting one, too, but want to hold out for the iridescent lol.
In my hot hands is my new, beautiful, Princess Pink VV! I'm already playing with it but wanted to kno from those who already have it, which ohms are you using?? I already had tanks loaded so tried those out and it's all been good but wondered if it can be even better.
My current tanks are 2.2-2.4 ohms but I bought 3.0-3.2 specifically for the the VV i just haven't started a new tank yet. Any others opinions on whats working for them would be appreciated. I know I can play around w/the volts too, which I have.
This is totally awesome and thx to all who said it was worth buying, because it was totally worth it!!!!!!

Lets back up for a moment Vaper Queen and start with some real world "reinforcement" and for the near future forget the ohms thing and all that engineer stuff and swaping heads and obsessing over same. Take a juice you have vaped before you got your new pinky, bolt it on, and turn the dial to 3.3 volts and vape. Vape enough at this setting so you can kinda make a mental note. Next turn the dial (red mark) half way between 3.3 and 3.8. Vape. Then 3.8 vape and stop vaping at half way between 3.8 and 4.3. That's 5 setting and vape at each one. Then your homework assignment for the boys and girls is to tell us the name of the juice and what your vaping observations were.
I might start with that mix you have of fusion and the tobacco name I cant remember
Or start with any juice you want and someone here will grade your test.
Notice, I haven't told you exactly what will happen. I don't want to put thoughts in your head or let your imagination run nutso. Maybe nothing will happen, maybe something will happen, maybe it will take you a few days to dial it in. It's all good at this stage.
Good luck

I LOVE having a private coach, but because my patience span is like a 2 yr old, I started playing before I read this!
So I did take my favorite mix of Fusion and Prime, took the current coil out which was a 2.2-2.4, swapped it out w/Halo recommended 3.0-3.2 and tried out the settings. Since I didn't have my coach, I had not idea you can set the volts half way..too cool, and mentally noted!!!!
What I found thus far, taste did seem to pop a little more in higher volts, but for some reason, my huge clouds I was getting have kinda backed off...on all settings, compared to the non VV. so either I'm completely screwed up or this is normal.
On my new 900 regular batt..still big clouds and tastes good too. I almost feel like I need a VV from 4.3-10.0! LOLOOLOL so a few quick questions:
would different ohms give me more vape/taste
Am I just screwed up
And does anyone know when you buy replacement Triton tanks/G6 minis from halo, are they standard 2.2-2.4 in them cuz I bought a ton and don't even know whats in them
Thanks Mr Miyagi, wax on wax off
I know one question the ohms are the same in all tanks even the g6 mini tanks. I asked halo directly i am secretly stalking this thread because im dont know if i should go for the 1300 triton or the vv. the vv is only 900 mah and i want the pretty rainbow.
But the 1300 is not a VV...I got the VV in the pink and its a cool pink. A little bit iridescent. Also the 900 VV is actually the same size as the 1300..learned that thru Cinder!

So....Vaper Queen LOL
It's been a few days since we last talked about your homework assignment. LOL What have you discovered? Have you found your sweet spot? Can I grade your test?
Where were you when I needed you!!! LMAO! I had a heck of a time all because I'm an idiot! I thought my batt was defective..couldn't get any vapor or flavor.
Mistake #1 don't try new toys after having 3 glasses of wine
Mistake #2 if you change out coils when its a full tank (or empty) make sure you screw in the new coil tight enough
Mistake #3 if you recharge batt, make sure it's actually fully plugged in the outlet or fully screwed into the charger
Mistake #4 see #1 unless you're not a light weight like me
After contacting Halo and Cinder
thinking it was defective, I played with it again on my weekend get a way, charged it again..fully in the outlet and fully screwed into the charger and low and behold..it works. LMAO!
I did notice; however, for whatever reason Midnight Apple on my VV doesn't produce as much vapor as my regular 900...that was the one I was trying out on the VV to begin with. Not sure why this is but I prefer that flavor on the reg batt not on the VV...So I'm enjoying and still playing around with it to see what flavors taste best with it and which volts! I can't tell yet what ohms I prefer. I'm not noticing a huge difference with that yet but do notice a big difference w/volts
Honestly tho, the low volts seem useless..like no flavor or vapor. Why would anyone even use the low volts? I still think higher volts would be better like 5.0-7.0....
By the way..my volt preference is 4.3-4.8 usually more 4.8. That's why I feel like I need even higher volts because below 4.3, its not doing it for me. did I pass any part of the test???

If you find the lower volts useless, then you can try the standard 2.2-2.4 coil (assuming you used the recommended 3.2), and push the volts higher (you'll hit a limit, but I don't know what it is).
BigBen you're the BOMB for info..I just wanted to say that. I did try it cuz that's most of the tanks i had bought previously to getting the VV.
I only have blank tanks (which I think have 2.2-2.4 in them) 2.2-2.4 and the recommended 3.0-3.2 replacement coils. I did change out several tanks to the 3.0-3.2 but also have many tanks full already that had the standard coils in them. I tried them all w/same results.
Best flavor/vapor for me was 4.3-4.8 volts w/3.0-3.2 ohms. Anything below, with the flavors I have, isn't much to me.

YIKES Vaper Queen!!!! LMAO!!!! I'm really getting confused. It MUST BE the water in your city. LOL
/jokeLets start with your perceived vapor issue. It just doesn't compute if you take the same tank with the same juice and fully charged bats then the vapor should be the same on your VV and 900 in the same vape session. The same holds true using a 900 and a 650. I've simplified my thoughts so as not to confuse. Vapor is a function of the PG/VG Halo mix which we do not control. You can tweak it but that's beyond the scope of this thread and NOT recommended at this point in your journey.
In a week I probably vape at least 12 different juices and my voltage across a number of mods and 4 different tanks is always between 3.3 and 3.8. During a single day my rotation is between 4 and 6 different juices. No tweaks/swaps of the heads for me. A total waste. I also regard charts as a waste for me. Or anyone else who will tell me what voltage I should vape a given juice at. My point with this is NOT that my way is the only way or the best way but rather it's what I LIKE to vape. The other point with this little story is that when I started my journey I used to get hung up with charts, OHMS, emulating others, the fad of the moment on ECF etc BUT all that did was confuse and frustrate me. It "blocked" what should have been my goal at the time which was a yummy vape. I suspect this may be the case with you.
So...forget everything girl! Next: Hydrate, blasts of Biotene, a brisk 30 minute walk around your crib with NO vape gear. Chill with your favorite music. THEN, grab your fav juice and bolt that tank to your VV and work your way UP from 3.3 in one half increments with your eyes closed. You should be fine.
I think it's a current limiter kicking in.
@2.2-2.4 Ohm, given a 3.7 volt (typical unregulated Triton battery voltage) : 1.5-1.7 amps
If the amp limit is 2, then the highest effective voltage is : 4.4-4.8 v (anything higher would either do nothing extra, or shutdown) on a 2.2-2.4 Ohm coil. [note: this isn't a terribly accurate representation, but it does demonstrate that it should be possible to hit the limit with a standard coil, if the limit is 2 amps. The resistance, while the coil is active, should be higher.]
A 1.8 coil should demonstrate this more effectively.
I'll run some tests this week, to see what's going on, with more details.

I'll be curious to what u find BigBen. As far as my personal Vape Coach..the test below are the results of using my fully charged Tritons VV and regular 900mAh both w/Voodoo, same tank switched back and forth, but I don't remember which ohms..either 2.2-2.4 or 3.0-3.2
VV set @ 3.3- very little vapor or taste. Mostly like a slight flavored air. Had to pull VERY hard to get vapor. Vapor seem cooler temp wise. It was definitely less in both compared to my normal 900 Trition
VV set @ 1/2 way 3.3-3.8- virtually the same as above except w/a tad more vapor
VV set @ 3.8- more vapor and more taste but not as much as my normal 900
VV set @ 1/2 way 3.8-4.3- more vapor and taste pops but still not where my 900 is
VV set @ 4.3- Good vapor and flavor. I would say this is almost identical to my 900
VV set @ 1/2 way 4.3-4.8- more vapor and flavor but at times get a undertone of burnt taste. Also vapor seems "hotter"/more TH
VV set @ 4.8-more vapor, flavor a little bit more than above and hotter temp. Burnt taste on occasion if I vape to quickly or too long of a draw, more so than above. And hotter temp/TH
So either I'm still not getting VV or IMHO, anything below 4.3 seems a little useless unless certain juices are better in lower VV's. I lean towards darker flavors like coffees, tobaccos and stay usually away from sweets like "cotton candy or peach". Voodoo is about the sweetest I vape.

Great work Vaper girl:
Your sweet spot during this specific vape session using your VV is:
You said: VV set @ 4.3- Good vapor and flavor. I would say this is almost identical to my 900
Use the above setting and enjoy. Vape and have fun. The "burnt" tone/taste is a clear indication (the magic word I was praying you would say) that you went to high so the vape is not enjoyable. This also happens to me and others and is also a sign that your buds (thats your taste buds lol) have matured/recovered enough to conduct our little test. If you had a mod that went to 6 volts like my ProVarinatti fan boy club Mod LOL it's the same vape and it ain't gona get better once you reach the burned threshold. Obviously you will eventually blow the coil/heads but the vape will just get more burnt/puky as you raise the volts to 5 or 6 and yes Iv'e run tests. Same tank. Same juice. Same session. The vape is the same for me with a Halo VV/twist and the ProVari to name just two cases. The neat thing about your VV is once you set it to 4.3 the vape will be the same during the life/charge of your VV bat because it maintains your 4.3 setting. The same can NOT be said with your 900 or any unregulated bat like the 650 etc. At full charge they (your 900) are delivering about 4.2 volts and as the bat charge is consumed/depleted during vaping they DROP to around 3.4 thus your close enough in the test considering its just ONE vape session.
You said: So either I'm still not getting VV or IMHO, anything below 4.3 seems a little useless unless certain juices are better in lower VV's.
You appear to be getting exactly what you are supposed to get! An enjoyable vape at 4.3 volts that YOU ENJOY. What the Hell more due you want????? LOL. NOT ME but that is the essence of vaping. Put a hundred drunk vapers in a Vegas club lol and some will love the same juice at 3.5 and others will love it at 4.3. THATS THE WAY it's supposed to work girl! Halo does not "tune/deliver" any juice for a specific voltage range or delivry device. This means it's a remarkable accomplishment when Halo juice is the rock star they are because they are vaped at different volts, every conceivable mod and delivery device and with many Halo juices with multiple complex layers and tones dancing around. That's a HUGE accomplishment.
You said: "Hmm, the VV would drop after a full charge too, correct?" NO GIRL! Please read above.
In summary, this is a good thing. YOUR setting works for YOU and keeps you off stinkys. That's ALL that matters.

Thanks guys! I totally get what your saying. Since I've never used a VV before, I guess I expected more taste and vapor at all volts. And yes, on Voodoo, I found my "sweet spot" at 4.3! It will be fun to load a bunch of juices and play around and see where each flavor tastes the best for me. I just have a strong suspicion it will never be at the low volts unless its a DAMN strong flavor or I change up ohms. I only see menthol maybe for those low settings and I'm not a menthol girl.
I did notice this morning, I actually prefer my coffee flavored one at a bit of a lower setting..maybe because its a pretty strong flavor and my taste buds aren't awake yet.
I'm glad I get an A! I've worked hard at this whole VV experience and learned a lot of lessons..wax on, wax off...
