Help understanding VV

[unirevolt]

I just got my evercool vv today from Silent Soldier and am having fun playing with it. I've got a DMM and know how to check the voltage coming out. I'm using CE2's 2.4-2.6 and 2.8-3.0......

Where I'm lost is... some flavors are really coming to life when set at about 5v, while other's ( 1 being my all day vape) taste like burnt garbage. The juices wick alright so I don't believe I'm running it dry, either way, it doesn't matter if it's my first or second puff, still tastes the same....

Just looking for some logic and ideas on this, aside from going back to 3.7 on those flavors.

Thanks All

You will find , all juices are different . I use multi-voltage type mods , myself . But anyway , ther eare juices that taste great on 3.7 , then taste like crap at 5 or 6 volts , and vice-versa . Some that don't taste very good at 5 or 6 volts , taste great on 3.7 . It's an exercise you need to perform , to find out how your particular juices stack up . Just try them on lower voltages , the on high , and see which you like the best .

On my variable volt Darwin, I vape between 4.5 and 5.0 volts with all my liquids. But all of my liquids are on the "light" side in color which might make a difference. But I have no issues with the different liquids in those power ranges.

Not all juices will be optimal at the same voltage, some mixes burn quicker than others or just taste better. For the most part I've found for me tobacco flavors shine at higher voltage while the more delicate/fruity, sweet flavors need to be a bit lower. You'll just have to check and see where your sweet spot is with each.

That's the beauty of VV you can do 3.7, 5, 6 or anything in between and I find my sweet spot usually in between which can't be done with a fixed battery mod.

Yup, thanks guys, looks like I'm in for a bit of trial and error... would going to a DC carto with more resistance help on the higher volts?

Dual coils might help a little at higher voltages, but you may still have to tailor your voltage to certain flavors. I have some flavors that only taste truly "right" in a certain carto at a certain voltage.

DC Cartos will give you a stronger hit and TH and work well at higher voltages, some people love em but I'm not a fan. The only absolute I can say is they will drain your battery faster. The only way to know if they are for you is to try them, you'll still have to find your sweet spot with different juices.

I use around 3.0 to 3.5 attys and cartos, I find that gives me the most usable range for VV while not putting to much of a strain on the batts.

So don't vape those at 5v. That is why you have VV. Also, in general 2 or 2.2 less than your voltage is low LR for that voltage. Anything lower would be extreme LR. So at 5v, 2.8-3ohms is the low end of LR. If you go lower than that with your ohms, try 4.5v or so.

Every juice taste different at different Voltages, as well with the CE2 Carto type cartos, for your daily vape you may want to try a good quality Atty to get more flavor then a Carto too. I have one of those mods you using and run an Iken i06 on it as well as a 510LR Atty from Iken and Eastmall, all 3 give superior flavor in my opinion over any Carto.

Juices taste better at different voltages. You just got to find the sweet spot for that particular juice. This is what makes VV so great!

Hope you are a Mountaineer fan and not a Terripen (sp) fan, lol. It sounds like you are near Cumberland. I drove through there many times when I lived in Washington, D.C. and went back home.

PS, I use DC's on my Darwin all the time. Very nice between 4.5 and 5.0 volts.

Why not use DC's at 5 volts??? Where do you come up with that kind of statement. You have never vaped at 5 volts or variable volt, so how can you make that type of comment? If you have only vaped on a couple of different small battery PV's, telling people how to vape on 5 volt PV's makes no sense.

There are hundreds (probably more) of us that use DC's with both 5 volt and variable volt PV's. It works quite well. I'm using one right now at 5 volts and it's nice and warm, not hot and works perfectly.

Yup, C-land it is... Don't really follow college ball, but definately a Mo-town fan.

Think I blew out 3 2.4-2.6's, not sure how, had it on 4.7 v took a few puffs, then dead. Too much power?

1.6 DC's for 5v?

You should be fine with a 1.6ohm DC at 5v. What I do with VV is just start at around 4v and then work my way up until it starts tasting off then I just back down a bit and thats where the sweet spot is. You will usually end up adjusting for each carto or atty. Hope that helps, that ss box is a great choice for a first pv

Thanks, definately pleased with everything about the evercool vv from SS. He bubble wrapped the heck out of it for shipping; woulda taken an elephant sitting on it to damage it (well almost, lol) I was so excited when it came, unboxed/unwrapped it.... and immediately dropped it on my hardwood floor. Heart stopped, panicked. Ran to put some batteries in and a carto on it. Didn't even phase it. Very nicely epoxied inside.

I use my DC at 3.7-4.0 on my provari and they work great
