I just ordered a Old Goat 6 volt bottom feeder. While waiting for it to come in the mail I am hoping to get some feedback from other people that use higher voltage bottom feeders. ( or bottom feeders in general .... Or high voltage in general i suppose) This will be my first step away from the easy to use v4l ecig and I love to hear "do's and not to do's along with opinions on attys and accessories and needs for it. I have a bunch of different ohm attys coming so I will be able to experiment a bit.
So please feel free to post your methods & experiences.

Make sure the atties are for HV vaping. I would say they need to be at least 3.5Ohms. These atties can handle high voltage vaping, but you need to make sure they stay wet. Dry atties = dead atties. They also go through juice faster because of the heat they produce, so just be aware of that.

I prefer 801 and 901 HV atties. I just get better flavor and a smoother vape from them.

If you've found your comfort zone, then try and replicate it!

For example, if you were using a 3.7v device before, with a 1.5ohm load (atty/carto) that would be around 9 watts or so. So, with your 6v device, you'll want a 3.5ohm-ish load to replicate a similar power rating, or wattage. Though the vapor will be warmer :)

Use Ohms law to figure out your wattage, an easy way to apply ohm's law when used for vaping purposes is

Voltage x Voltage divided by Resistance (Ohms in atty/cart) = Power or Wattage
3.7 x 3.7 / 1.5 = approx. 9watts
6 x 6 / 3.5 = approx. 10watts

so on and so forth :)
