What everyone is telling me then, that on vv you all can tell when the resistance goes up .2 or down .2? I have juices that taste better running at 3.7 volts and juices that taste better at 4.5 volts. How does vw help me in this case. I just do not trust most of the china made products. My YJ2.0 died after 2 months of use, never dropped once or mistreated. Until they put a product out they will stand behind, I can't afford to support them.

Actually they are. That's been confirmed by a number of independent reviews of the new vv/vw devices. Which is one of the reasons they've taken off. The Provari is the most accurate on variable voltage, but many of the vv/vw devices are so close that in practical terms there is no difference in terms of accuracy for the vaper.
With accuracy the game has lifted. That's happened just within the last 6 months or less, and I think seeing that accuracy on the vv/vw mods has been partly what has prompted so much interest from people in wanting to see a Provari vw. Whether they will bring one out or not at some point is anyones guess. For the moment they aren't planning to.
I haven't seen any side by side test comparisons between the vv/vw mods and dna mods so don't know if the dna performs any better - it has smaller increments for those who want that. My understanding is the DNA20 has a 4 volt minimum, and SR is recommended. That could be an issue for those wanting lower ohms on their rebuildables.
That's not an issue with the Provari, or with the better vv/vw mods. The Provari has I believe the best capacity for very low ohms - like 1.0 or 0.9 ohms. Unless a mechanical mod is used.

Wanted to add an edit but couldn't so will add it here - anyway, I've since discovered there are other pvs that will also handle very low ohms - under 1.0. And while some say the provari will, others have found it won't. So that point is moot for now I think.

You haven't said what resistance you're using. So its not clear if you're increasing voltage with different resistances or the same resistances. If its the same resistance then variable wattage wouldn't "help" you any further, other than you would just increase the wattage - and that's easy to do. It is variable. If its different resistances then with variable voltage you'd be increasing the voltage to achieve the same watts. Variable wattage would maintain the watts set and adjust the voltage for you.

I have a 1.5 ohm carto I use. The point was made to me " what if the resistance goes up". Usually it will only go up .2 at the most, and I just do not believe that flavor would change that much that a person would notice. I vape at about 8.5 watts based on 1.5 rest., and 3.6 volts and with my 2.5 ohm 4.6 or 4.7 volts. That is for one of my juices only. Its just different ways to achieve the same results.

I see - I wasn't sure if you were seriously asking or arguing a point. I answered in case you were just asking the question. I've vaped with a Phoenix where the resistance jumped by a lot more than .2, and I was using VW so the wattage maintained for me. It can happen.
A lot of people do like vw and if there is a Provari 3 then perhaps they'll add vw. Apparently quite a lot of people have been asking them if they'll do it. For now its still hypothetical.

If the Chinese can make a VV/VW Provari knock-off and sell it to their vendors for $50 then I'm sure ProVape can do the same thing, higher quality, more accurate, and with a better interface. Hell, I've been saying for months that they need to partner up with eVolv and stick the DNA20 or something like it in a Provari tube. Can you imagine? Provari, powered by eVolv? Best of both worlds.

That's a 1W difference in relation to your 8.64W baseline.
Yes, you would notice it easily.

This is very true and is a recent change. Look at Phil B's recent review of the zMax v2 and when he gets to the measurements and numbers, accuracy is spot on in both VV and VW modes.
