I am using a lavatube, 50/50pg/vg liquid, I am using 2ohm cartos. I am still waiting for the 3 ohm cartos to come in. I have not yet gone above 5 volts, just not sure if a 2 ohm carto will handle it.

erm... on a lavatube, if u push it to 6 volt, the output will still be lesser than that as the 'protection circuit' will auto adjust the current output to the maximum allowed so no worries of shorting for that.
however , i would say somewhere 4.6-4.8v (estimated. didn't bother to use ohms calculator)

The problem isn't the resistor as much as the battery.
But most folks won't push a 2 ohm past 6 volts.
That's 3 amps for 6 volts. 2.5 amps for 5 volts.
The smaller the battery the less likely it can handle the higher amperage.
But the lavatube will be fine at either of these settings.

Yeah , the worst that can happen , is a popped carto . Not the end of the world , but 4.7 volts seems to be spot on , with a 2 ohm carto . At least to me .
Here is kinda a cool vid about Voltages and the Lavatube.
I don't have one, I'm waiting for the Mini-Lavatube to come out, so I can't speak to the numbers. But the thread it comes from has some people who have done some actual testing.

The LT will self adjust so you can run it as high as you want. It will lower the voltage where it "thinks" it should be.
