Having (just about) made it through day one without an analog (it's been a beast, truth be told), I'm already thinking about getting more involved -- that is, if I'm really making the transition. For the purposes of these questions, I'll assume that I am.
Q1: Does hardware have a substantial affect on flavor?
I'm wondering, because, with the EVOD starter kit (+2 MPT2s) I'm using, I feel like the flavors of my juices have been muted, weak, or otherwise unsatisfactory. Could be the vendor, or me, but its impractical to just keep ordering sampler after sampler to see. So, I'm wondering if it's just this setup. People are always talking about VV/VWs (I still don't quite get it) and how the perfect settings are different for different juices. Maybe I just haven't found it the right method for me? I don't know. Oh, and I tried an atomozier for kicks and it not only kinda scares the crap out of me (it's leaky, it's hot, it clearly requires a level of finesse I'm void of) but it tastes even funkier than the clearomizers.
Q2: If the answer to Q1 is yes, then...
What's a reasonable step up? Should I just upgrade the battery? I'm confused. I tried to read up on things but people throw around makes and models and I just get more confused. It took me two days of reading just to decide on the EVOD kit. I actually felt melted brain dripping out my ear and considered a trip to the ER.

Q3: If the answer to Q1 is no, then...
Am I some sort of tasteless mutant? Is it the juice, mayhaps? I've tried a few vendors now with all sorts of flavors and/or PG/VG ratios. It's either sickly sweet and cloying or muted to the point where I swear I'm just tasting the PG/VG itself. Not necessarily true, but that's what the (un)flavor seems like.
Thanks for any help/insight. I'm hoping that someone has had similar issues and can let me know what did/did not work for them.
