Did they discontinue root beer float or just out?
I ask because I pulled out a bottle of rbf
(no nic) so thought it wouldn't hurt to check
out reviews on it, and .... not there?
What happens if I absolutely love the stuff and can't live without it?

i bet you could mix root beer and vanilla ice cream and come up with a close match :)

ok so maybe you can help, or someone can? i have a mvp2 and i use 1.8 and 2.2 coils. about where should i be setting my watts and volts? right now i have a 1.8 coil in and have the watts at 3.5 and volts at 7.5 and it seems ok. just wondering if that is anywhere close to where it should be. thanks :)

I use mine just the opposite ....my watts are about 6.5 to 7.5 and then the volts set itself based on your coil.

looks like you have taht backwards but firing a 1.8 ohm coil at 3.5 volts is about 6.8 watts so firing the same one in wattage mode at 7.5 watts leaves you in the same ball park. You could try uping the volts to 3.7 which on a 1.8 ohm coil gives you about 7.6 watts which would be as close as the 7.5 you are vaping in wattage mode...Confused yet?

The most important thing, if it's good, then you are doing it right :)
The settings for Volts and Watts are independent, so if you are in voltage mode, it just uses the volt setting and ignores what you had set for watts, and vice versa. The general rule for voltage is to add 2 to the ohms, so try the 1.8Ω coil at 3.8 volts and adjust up or down a little from there til you like it.

Kelli, if you like your Watts at 7.5 then just leave it there and forget about it. When Watts mode is enabled volts mode is turned off so it doesn't matter. The MVP 2 fires about 1/2 a Watt higher than its setting so on another mod you might find 8 Watts is where you prefer it (in case you ever use another mod).

Similarly, when you are using volts mode then Watts mode is disabled.

I don't use Watts mode because I'm a pain in my own .... and Like to start off low in the mornings and increase a bit throughout the day. Also some of my liquids I like at different settings so Watts mode has no real advantage for me.

Hey Kelli, I'm running 6 Watts on my Vamo V3 using a 2.4 Ohm coil in a Protank version 1, for a really thick, dark, Innovape u.o.e.n.o 18mg juice. On one of my Provari, I have a Protank II with a 2.4 Ohm coil using a very thin, clear, NicVape pina colada juice 50/50 mix 12mg, I'm running at 4.0V which is 6.7 Watts. I'm often around 7 Watts. Some people prefer 5 Watts others prefer 10 Watts. If it begins to taste burnt back it down. If you can't taste the flavor, back it down. If you don't get enough vapor, pump it up.

oh wait, maybe i have them mixed up. is the one on top watts?

yeah! all this new tuff is confusing for sure......much more complicated than my eGO twist that I just turned up or down.
but I like the MVP cuz no matter which coil I have on it if I set it to 6.5 watts it sets itself to stay there. Almost easy :). ALMOST
