I would think you'd be best off to start with a standard resistance atty. It really depends on several other factors.

The point of a low resistance atty is to bump up the wattage through the coil when you don't have the ability to increase the voltage. With variable volt, you can increase the wattage with the voltage (confused yet?), so you don't need lower resistance.

Of course, I may be oversimplifying it, but that's the way I'd go. I use a Provari, and I order whatever resistance attys I can get cheapest, and adjust the voltage accordingly... In other words, I buy what's on sale, and go from there.

To really start to understand how voltage impacts your vape, though, you may be best to use whatever atty you're already accustomed to using. Then you can see the impact and know it's from the VV, not from using a different atty.

Just my thoughts... Someone who knows more will have more info, but I hate to see a question go unanswered!

Thank You so much Wil. The way you put it helped me understand better about the ohm's on them. Right now I'm using standard cartomizers on my Omega but wanted to make sure I got the right stuff for a Vv. I am looking at the Provari but I wanted to try something cheaper to see if I like the Vv before investing in a Provari.

That's the beauty of VV. You can adjust the voltage to match what's optimal for your hardware rather than trying to find the right hardware to work with your fixed voltage device.

I'm a dripper at heart so I use the 306 LR attys because they're more powerful than the 510's, and they're shorter too.

But I got 15 510 LR cartos from Crystal Clear Vaping for $20 and that includes shipping. Can't beat that deal! And those are the best cartos I've tried yet, after a month I've yet to have to 'clean' one, they just keep going. I condom fill them with the mouthpiece side down into the juice. Good luck!

Thank You! I'm gonna pass that onto my husband. He's the one interested in the VV. Someone else told me about the cartos from CCV and we are going to try them. I just bought some Boge cartos and I can't seem to find a difference between them and the other brand I have.

No problem... Glad I could help.

I love the Provari, but I find that I still use standard eGo batteries a good bit of the time. Just keep an eye out for true variable voltage. Some "VV" mods offer the ability to change out batteries, which might give you the ability to run at, say, 3.7V with one set and 6V with the other. If you want to vape at 5.0, you're out of luck. With true VV, you can select your voltage to the 0.1, which I find infinitely more helpful than having "High" and "Low" options. For True VV, you can't beat the Provari or the Darwin...
