Still, you should let the batt drain completely every now and again to conserve charging capacity... I was reminded of it by my local vendor when I complained yesterday. I'll do that today!

They'll soon be arriving, I'll see if I can get a taste. But my motto for vaping is still the same "no filler, and the least amount of wicks give you the best vape".
I buy from GotVapes or Stormy's vapor Cellar, Vapeonly BCC Coil Head - 1.8ohm [gv-Vapeonly-1.8ohm-CoilHead] - $2.75 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more
I started on 901 and KR808D, I think you'll understand my hatred on fillers and dripping, so much I debridge my 306 whenever I use one (not anymore, but I've got a couple to test juices).
When vaping Vapeonlys they come with a lot of flavor wicks, start low on voltage and go up. If you experience dry hits or burnt taste DON'T OPEN THE POST, just remove a couple of hairs of the top with a pair of tweezers, just enough to let liquid go through and give you a saturated vape.
I had a Porsche Turbo Carrera back in 1986. The beast had so much power to the rear end you usually ended skidding in every corner. Not for everyone. I tested suspensions in race cars for a long time... High powered cars should require a special licence to be driven... I prefer the nice Kia, or my beloved PT Cruiser... (oh, why on earth did they stop making them?!?)

There's some conflicting info out there, but from my research on Lithium Ion batteries they aren't supposed to need to be completely discharged, and doing so can actually hurt battery capacity. From what I've found it's actually best to keep them above 10%-20%, and charge to slightly below max capacity.
I have noticed that the "Drain Completely Then Recharge" vs "Meh. Charge it at night" is always an interesting argument.
Does that still hold true? Do the new high speed- low drag batteries still have charge memories like back in the Ni-Cd Power Wheels days?
Again. Asking cause I'd like to know. Not intentionally trying to kick a hornets nest. I want to do whatever will give my battery the longest life in the long run.

According to every thing I've ever read about these chemistry's, it is just like voting "Charge early, Charge often" ( My saying not Puff's
)There is no evidence that I have ever read that says we should fully discharge these Lithiums. In fact we should never FULLY discharge them as this can damage them.

It has to do more with the charge calibration rather than battery capacity. Some of you stated that when you unplug it it quickly goes from 4.2 to 4.1 and it stays there for a long time. It's more a thing of calibrating the meter than condition of the battery. Holds true of all things with inside charging circuitery, not just the MVP.

ya know I've read that charge calibration enough times I should
follow it now and again, but I don't so far...
but I feel it is a needed operation

My iPhone 4S batt improved so much since this. Not needed every time, but once in a while is wise.
This is exactly why I refuse to buy a dripper or try dripping in any way. I like my clearomizers just fine and I dont want to ruin it for myself
Interesting. Why? I have only the MVP right now (which is awesome to me).
Ive been really torn as to whether I should just get another MVP, or go for a mod with a bit more power. The main reason is my Russian (if I can ever get it to wick- thanks Puf for the links; isolators on the way). Id like to try so fairly elaborate dual coil and possibly even higher setups, and the MVP sees limits here. The biggest thing that I dislike is when a coil setup takes a while to heat up (say 5 seconds).
Of course heatup time is proportionate to thermal mass and wattage. I run 30 gauge 6 wraps 1.5ohms for the quick heat up. So in order for heatup time to be quick with dual or quad coil setups (especially using 30 gauge or 28 gauge wire), you need more watts.
Id buy an MVP 3 with 20 watts as I think that would be enough. Curious to know how/why you prefer the lower wattage setups though- I might be chasing a ghost.
It really depends on how long/deep of hits you take. I get 2 days and a puff count of about 500-600 out of one charge if I push it from one extreme to another (fully charged to dead), but I take deep lung hits. I am slowly moving towards shallower hits, and the battery life is slowly getting better. I am currently running a 30 gauge 6 wrap (1/16th drill bit) coil at 1.5 ohms @ 9 watts in a Protank 2 with cotton wicks.
Unless you are a total vaping monster, Im convinced you cant run an MVP dead in one day. As long as you charge it each night, you will always have a vape. And even if you forget a charge, it should get you through the next day just fine. And even if it goes dead, you can charge it off a laptop, a cellphone usb AC adapter, etc and use it while it charges.

haha, wonder where i herd that before
getting a good RDA and starting to drip, well let's just say it's like eating a perfectly cooked Porterhouse Steak for the first time
24 hours with my MVP and so far, so good! My Nautilus mini showed up in the mail room this morning and... WOW. Going from an eGo/2.4ohm Vivi Nova to the MVP and Nautilus mini is remarkable.
I'm running the MVP at 10 watts with a 1.8ohm BVC coil (reads as 1.9 on the MVP) on the third largest air hole. Awesome flavor and enough vapor production that stealth vaping in my cubicle just got a lot trickier. This thing is destroying juice.
I'm ordering another MVP for backup and a couple of more Nautilus minis. I'll be PIF'ing my eGo batteries and old clearos to a co-worker.
This thing is a great work/on-the-go device!

Have had the same 1.3ohm coil on my KFL since April at 3.7 volts on my MVP and I get Clouds and great flavor. No problems with Battery protection or any other problems since then. Vape how you want and dance like no one is watching
I love mine with the Nautilus Mini and 1.8 ohm coils. Works like a champ. Someone else posted a link here last week I think where you could pick them up at a steal.

Yay mine FINALLY arrived after being lost in the system (2 emails and no response but it suddenly shows up in my mailbox). Not really sure about that iClear 30 so I stuck one of my new Aspire Minis, waiting to make sure everything gets good and soaked with juice.
Okay I've done A LOT of reading here and yet I'm not sure where to start out, what to set the VW and VV at. I recall someone mentioning staying about 3.8 vv but????

I use the wattage adjustment. With 1.8 coils in the Nautilus mini I started at 10 watts which is ~4.24V. I kicked it up to the full 11W about an hour ago - that's ~4.44V.
My 2.4 Viva Nova coils don't like anything over 8W which is ~4.38V.
