So I have been looking to get a new nod for several months. I currently have a Silver Billet and love it but want to take a plunge into Vw or VV. looks like the ProVari is the way to go for VV and the Darwin for VW. ProVari can be ordered today but who knows on the Darwin. Now I hear there is a new DNA20 in the works. Do I wait and see what mod is going to incorporate the DNA20 or just order a ProVari?
Pull the trigger?

You've already waited several months. Unless you are to the point of pulling the trigger now, wait aother two or three more months for mod-makers to get their products out with the DNA20 chips.
However, depending upon if you have a variety of different ohm heating elements or have settled on one ohm in particular, variable wattage may or may not be that advantageous for you.
The Provari can be ordered today and you will likely have it in your hands the following week if not sooner. It has been the gold standard of variable voltage since it was introduced a couple of years ago, and even when more variable voltage devices are out on the market, the Provari will continue to be a highly sought after device because of its quality, durability, and customer service.
I have the Provari. I use the same 3.0 ohm cartomizer in all of my cartotanks. That's all I need for a great vape. I have absolutely no use for variable wattage because I have settled on the one specific ohm heating coil.
Even if you get the Provari and later find that you want variable wattage, the Provari's have proven time after time to hold their resale value at or just below initial costs. Get verified and put it on the classifieds and sell it in no time.

Maybe its the technician in me.... but a Variable Voltage is in effect a variable wattage... v^2/ohms= wattage, ie by adjusting voltage and the resistance of your atomizer you have changed the wattage or BTU of your vape.. Or am I missing something???
A variable wattage device will auto adjust output voltage accordingly to whatever resistance of the atty you use basing on a certain wattage you manually set.
Yep, on a VV device wattage will change as you change the resistance of the atomizer coil. A variable wattage device would change the voltage automatically to maintain the wattage you set. It would be the best of both worlds.
That said, on my Provari I occasionally use a 2 ohm carto. When I do, I vape at 3.5v to 3.7v. When I go back to a 3 ohm carto, I vape at 4.0v to 4.2v. It's just a quick change setting that is easy to do.
Provari is the gold standard in mechanical excellence as well as the reliability and accuracy of the electronics. I don't know anyone who owns one that isn't fully satisfied with it.
Michaaar, my understanding of the main benefit of variable wattage is that no matter what ohm atomizer that you would have on your battery, the dialed in wattage would remain in effect. Say you like to vape at 12 watts and set the processor to provide that. Even if you change from one atomizer to another of different ohm resistance, the processor will provide you with the 12 watts, no adjustments necessary.
Supposively, with variable voltage, you have to do "the formula" to figure the voltage required with each different resistance atomizer.
One can always adjust voltage "to taste" too. Start low and gradually work your way up in voltage until you find you "sweet spot" voltage. Thing is, if you use a variety of different juice flavors, that sweet spot might be 3.4v or 4.8v. Variable wattage is not going to adjust for that.

So it basically does the same thing, all you are getting for the price tag is an extra calculation I can in a few seconds. 
Gotcha
Gotcha
Variable wattage can be adjusted as well. So yes, it would adjust for that.
Sorry for two posts, meant to reply to this. That's true, but also you can change the watts and not worry that the voltage is too low or too high when you do that, because it adjust the voltage. People keep seeming to think its just about staying at the same watts with different ohms. There is that advantage, but also the advantage of changing the watts and the voltage adjusting for the ohms you are using at the time.
With more devices coming out that have both - variable wattage and variable voltage - the best of both worlds can be had. This post by another member on the Vamo VW/VV pv is very interesting:

He gives it higher marks than his other VV or VW APVs, and he owns quite a few, as well as kicks.

whats your vaping budget? silver bullets will last you a long time. if youve gotten that far without a vv or vw mod, just buy a kick separate and make your silver bullet vw. if money isnt an issue or if you dont have a back up, I suggest you get a provari or zmax. they are one of the most effective mods and easily obtainable
I have a kick and sleeve for the SB and when it works it works great, but many times it just won't fire. I have sanded the sleeve and it helped but I still have the problem every now and then. I just ordered a LavaGen, resistance wire, and ss mesh and I think I am going to order the Provari today.
