I just purchased and mvp 2.0 and I was wondering about the wattage and voltage settings .. Do you set both voltage and watt settings together ? Or are the separate options all together, such as separate "modes" like when it's at 3.5 volts that's what it will stay in , and once you've selected 11watts it's at 11 watts ... I guess what I'm asking is are they separate functions or do they need to work together ??

So, ohms law is (voltage^2)/ohms = watts

So with vv, you can set your preferred voltage, and it will come out to a specific wattage, depending on the resistance (ohms) of your atty. while variable wattage automatically measures your resistance, and sets your volts to the correct setting to produce that specific wattage. Variable wattage is what I use when I'm switching between tanks/cartos a lot and want a consistent vape.

Did that make sense at all?

So, if you're going to look at all the values together, it would look like this.

Wattage is a more universal setting for any topper that you place on the MVP. The chip inside the MVP will read what the resistance of your atomizer is and then adjust the voltage to the Watt level that it is set at when you fire it. It comes in quite handy when you are changing your toppers and don't want to check the resistance each time and find what voltage tastes the best to you.

Voltage is for fine tuning the amount of volts you want the MVP to fire the topper at. This produces a more specific wattage than just say 8.0W, 8.5W, 9.0W, etc... But like others have said you only need to set one and it will be fine. I usually keep mine set at around 9W and I vape mainly fruity liquids and sometimes bakery occasionally and that is my sweet spot. Just try the different ways and find what you like best then stick with it.

o.k. clear as mud, but its starting to make sense.. .. so with a different topper its adviser to change the setting, in order not to damage the coil or getting to run to hot??
So, different atomizers have different ohms (resistance) and if you switch the voltage (potential power) it will change the wattage (actual power output). Basically, you're always vaping on watts, and volts are a half step towards watts, while watts are always the end result. So say, cartos tend to burn at 12 watts, you'll want to stay below that, either by setting your volts, and measuring watts, or just setting your watts. Watts are the outcome.

o.k when you set the wattage your controlling the "potential " power out put.. and when you set the wattage you can "fine tune " the power out put with the voltage.. yes..lol..

:vapor:thanks for all the great answers .. the instruction you get with it, don't really say to much.. I was getting a little sick of the BURNT rubber band taste..lol.. so I decided to break my man pride and "ask" .. thanks again..:) I absolutley love the device, I just wanted it to work better.. :toast::toast:http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/images/smilies/toast.gif

Both of those should actually be voltage. Voltage is potential, and "fine tuning" (because it can be set more specifically) ACTUAL power output is wattage and ends up being more important to the resulting vape consistency. Hope that helps!
