Question on 3.7v / 5v / 6v?

[Toker]

Can y'all please explain the advantages of vaping at the different voltages?

I'm currently using Ego with the standard atty. I have a 5v PT on order, should be here tomorrow, I hope.

From what I understand, the higher voltages vaporize the juice faster and make a much warmer vapor.

So what are the pros and cons to higher voltages?

The higher the voltage the more likely you will burn out an atomizer unless you keep it wet all the time. And even then, don't vape at 6v without an ample supply of atomizers.

Personally, I don't like 6v, all the flavor goes away. 5v is my preference.

I prefer 5 volts or LR atties at 3.7 volts. Best flavor, throat hit and vapor imo.

What he said, for the most part.
I like 5v for my main vape.
Sometimes I just hasta has me a big 6v kick.
I'm even toying with the idea of purchasing a 7.2v device.
*evil laugh*

So what is the pros to vaping at 6v? There has to be something positive about it. Is it just a mongo TH?

Warm vapor, monster TH and a ton of vapor.

I'm only asking or inquiring, mostly because I want to upgrade from my Ego.

But....

I also want a much warmer vapor, without having to hold down the button before inhaling or taking a few primer puffs. Even with holding down the button for a couple seconds, I still find it more enjoyable to do primer puffs....about 2-3, before I get that super sweet hit.

I am with harpo on this one.
my GLV and 5v mod box.
just right vapor and heat.. lol

You have to try 6v to see if it's for you. Some people here swear by it and wont do anything else, and to some it is just too much...........just a matter of personal taste. No one can tell you for sure you will love/hate it............

Well, I got that 5v PT on the way, just so I can sample the different voltage.

Next step after that is to find a nice 5v mod, that is both heavy duty and not an eye sore.

Most of the answers you're getting in here refer to high voltage with a 510 atomizer. If you use a high resistance 901 atty at 6 volts you won't get a burnt taste and the flavor is rich. The reason is that the 510 HR atty provides about 3.5 ohms and the HR 901 atty provides 5.2 ohms bringing the current closer to that experienced at 5 volts. The 901 atomizer is a very good flavor deliverer and at that voltage it's amazing. I have 510 mods with HR 510 atomizers and it's good but nowhere near the same. It' hot and burns some flavors out. With a 510 you really need it regulated to 5 volts.

801 @ 6 Volt has very decent flavour and awesome vapour, personally I can't stand the 801 at any less than 6 volt.

By the way original poster dude, your ego only puts 3.2 volt on the coil.

OUCH! No wonder I prefer to take several primer puffs. The initial puff is weak flavor and weaker vapor.

The advantage to 5v is that you can use "standard" attys without the need to spend extra for HV attys...........

Just get youself a Buzz from notcig and you have the complete voltage range as it has adjustable voltage.

Finally got my 5v PT from Madvapes and I can officially say that my next E-cig has to have a 5v option. The warmer vapor has so much more flavor to it, IMO.

Now just have to save up for a good 5v ecig.
