Low voltage/High voltage...what's the diff?

[glenharris1971]

Question for the vets...
What is the difference between vaping low V/Low R. Vs. High V/High R? Seems to me that the vapor amount would be about the same. What is the difference?

You can adapt diff. voltage to diff. juices;

You wouldnt believe what your fav juice taste on say,3.7v with your std 2 ohms atty vs a 0.9ohm one or the diff. between 3.7 and 5.0V on the same 2.0ohms

Some juices come alive,some just taste awefull;some voltage lets you notice aftertones or notes in juices that you didnt had on std kits.

Comparo: its like cheap speakers vs high quality earphones

They are similar... but not exactly the same.

The LR stuff does put more watts in the juice... to "simulate" HV vaping. However, it's often a smaller coil (to get to LR) so the surface area of the coil is different.

Often, the devices are different too... how well they supply amps. So...1.5 ohms on device A may not get as many amps as on device B.

More voltage = more "oomph" IMO. My 5 volt stuff hits like a cig with 3.2 ohm atomizers (7.8 watts)

Simple answer:

HV gives more vapor, and warmer vapor. I mean more than a normal cig would give smoke. Also uses more juice, so you would be adding more frequently so as not to burn atty or carto.

LR on 3.7 gives a bit more vapor, but not nearly as much as HV. It will make 3.7 more pleasant if that is what you are looking for.

Thanks for the answers guys. I Just built a VV box and have a Bauway 510 Atomizer, 4.0 ohms in the mail. HV on the way.

You might want to try 3ohm also. I like 6V with a 3ohm carto...my sweetspot for 99% of my ejuice. LR on and eGo is fine but nothing like HV. It's suppose to simulate 5V vaping but unless you've actually tried 5V, there's no comparison.

This is what I'm hoping for!
