I've only been vaping for a few months and I'm hooked!!! Just got my 3rd PV this month yesterday, a LT VV and I'm loving it.. Also this week I took advantage of Black Friday and Cyber Monday for juice deals. What I want to know is it a good idea to stock up on a bunch of carto's and tanks so I don't mix the juices up and when using a VV mod and different types of juice should I get different owm cartos for different juices? Do you just find that some juices taste better at a lower volt? If so what types and what owm carto should I get.. 90% of the juices I ordered are fruity juice with a couple non fruit.. Waffle and Chocolate Chip Cookie to name a few. I cant buy any more mods, like I said I have a LT and a 3.7 Inferno and have been mixing older juice together in the tanks but now I have a bunch of new juices steeping I want to taste those the way they're meant to be. Thanks for your input.:unsure:

Generally, with a VV type PV, you would want to use standard or higher resistance delivery devices because you can get a warmer vape by turning the voltage up. Whereas, on a 3.7 device, you would use a standard resistance for a cool vape and a low resistance for a warmer vape. Some juices do taste better in a cooler vape than others. I think most fruit vapes are better when cooler.

I happen to be stuck on loving the Smok single coil 1.7 ohm XL cartomizers, so I use them on my Egos and on lower voltages of my Twists.
I use standard resistance atty's for dripping, so I use those on my Twists so I can tune up or down the heat.
I use 2.4 and 2.8 clearos on my twists only.

Lately, I've been seeing 4 and 5 ohm carts at some vendors for high voltage vaping. I've never tried them.

I use a variable voltage mod also, a Provari from Provape. I use primarily cartomizer tanks. To me they provide the best flavor of any juice delivery device, plus once set up the provide mulitple days of use because of their higher liquid capacity (2-9ml of juice) and can be refilled a couple of times with the same cartomizer still in the tank. The cartomizers used in these tanks will need to have holes in them in order for the juice in the tank to get inside the cartomizer. The cartos can be purchased with these holes already in them, which I recommend for beginners. Tanks come in two major lengths, according to the length of cartomizer desired. Regular or standard size tanks use a 35mm carto; Extra long tanks use an XL 45mm length cartomizer.

I have a list of online vendors that supply cartomizers with the holes already in them in one of my blogs under my avatar to the left. For variable voltage, I recommend a 2.5 ohm to 3.0 ohm single coil cartomizer. I use both Ikenvape Platinum and Smoktek and have been quite pleased.

Do you own a bunch of different juices or put different juices in the tanks when its empty? I got a bunch of flavors steeping and want to get a good taste out of them and wasn't sure since I only have one VV and 1 tank that would be a good idea.

I own multiple cartotanks, each with their own flavor juice. Each with the same single coil 3.0 ohm cartomizers.

With fruit flavors, I find that quite low voltages work best: 3.4v to 3.7v. My favortite flavors are the coffee's, and with them I find that higher voltages bring out their flavor best: 4.0v to 4.8v.

You can view many of my cartotanks by clicking the link in my sig below.

Since I don't drip, I test new sample pack flavors in ce3's. These are generally easy to fill and remove juices, rinse out, and refill. Hold only 1ml of juice (that's all you need to sample new flavors), and are relatively inexpensive.

Yes, I do. The beauty of the 3.0 ohm carto is in its versatility of being able to use voltages throughout the variable voltage device's range from 3.5v to 5v.

Using lower than 3.5v may produce less vapor, but some delicate flavors like fruit flavors benefit from the lower voltage to produce more flavor and not tasting burnt.

Use the following voltage/ohm/watts chart to see what I mean.
