Producing higher W using voltage settings

My question is can you vap at a higher wattage by cranking up the voltage on a VV/VW. Higher wattage than what you could using the wattage settings. For instance on the dna 30, if you have a .5 ohm coil you could only go up to 30 watts using the wattage settings(3.8volts/7.7amps). But if you use a 1.11ohm coil and set it to 6v you would produce 32 watts with a lower 5.4 amp current.

The device has a limit on the power (watts or amps) it can handle. If you set a wattage then the device checks the resistance of the atomizer and, if possible, selects a voltage. If you set voltage the device checks the resistance of the atomizer and, if possible, uses the voltage.

One of the things you get with a regulated mod, a VV/VW mod, is safety. The mod looks at what you are trying to do and if it falls outside what it thinks is safe it stops you. The dna 30 is built to be able to handle 30 watts and if you ask it to do more it will not let you. Watts and voltage are tied together by ohm's law. If you have a fixed resistance, your atomizer, you can pick voltage or wattage and get the other.

You can smash yourself on the head with a hammer as hard as you want but if a true friend has the hammer he will only tap you lightly, no matter what you say.
