Some do and some don't. For me when I first started I had variable voltage pens and I thought they were great. You can adjust to heat to add or lessen throat hit and heat and to adjust for different resistance coils and flavors and adjust for what you consider the best vape.

You can also set it at lower voltage for longer battery life.

Not if you're happy without. I wasn't too happy with my vaping, thought I needed more power, and now I use vv/vw mods, but not with the results I expected. Especially with high nicotine liquids, I find I'm mostly vaping at a meagre 6.5W, giving me enough smooth and pleasant vapour. Yet some folks want 100W mods, it's a personal thing.

I recommend VV to all my new converts. Most people who start off on standard batteries upgrade to VV soon after anyway. Generally speaking, I decrease the voltage on light juices and increase it for colored/thick ejuice; then there is the PG/VG mix of the juice. Newbies will not know what their preferences in the beginning and VV gives them more options. Once you use VV you will not go back to standard batteries, at least the majority of people I know don't. Its not an "over the top" difference but once one becomes experienced with vaping it becomes important.

First you must ask, what are my vape goals? And how long do you want to vape for???

If just looking to quit smoking then quit vaping, or continue and improving your vape? The minimum I recommend to all vape curious people is either something like the Innokin VV V3 or MVP 2. Both are VV/VW, and may be all that you'll ever need. One a box mod, the other more ego size.

Variable is nice, allows one to dial in to taste. And if one decides to go the path of the rba, re-buildable atomizer, either can get started, but the MVP would be better suited for majority of rba's. Though something like the Taifun GS clone, would work nicely on the VV 3.

For me, a regulated mod was necessary, and is the safest way to vastly improve your vape and get stared on the rba path. Until I started building the Russian rba, I felt that something was missing from my vape, basically an adequate volume of vape to fill my lungs, don't have that problem anymore. :lol:

Best advice is to see what is vape possible, then decide what makes the most sense to you and fulfills your vape agenda. Once finding the style of personal vaporizer, then search for quality, and the best price, and go from there.

I would certainly recommend a variable voltage/variable wattage device to a new vaper. You have the ability to drive a wide variety of atomizing devices with a single device. VV/VW allows you to find the sweet spot of flavor and vapor for the particular juice you are using. Vaping is all about customizing the experience for you.

I am very happy with my CTS-B Twist. It's variable voltage, 3.2-4.8. I can adjust it to make whichever flavor I happen to be using taste the best, charge it while I'm sleeping & it lasts all day. It's affordable (about $30) and gives me the larger size and heavier weight that I like. As someone who's just not ready for a mod as an all day vaper, it's perfect for me.
