I am trying out the 1.8ohm head in a couple of them right now. Sure had to dial down the voltage. I would think the 1.8 would be great for folks with a lower voltage PV.

I am going to try the 2.8ohm head next.

Anyone else running a 2.8ohm head on a twist? If so how many volts are you needing to get a good vap?

Running a V2 on a twist at 4.4 volts on the 2.8 ohm head with good results.

will the ultrasonic take all the gunk off the coils or do you have to do something ealse with them ?

I run stuff through with just water. Do a water change and a couple more rinses at the end. I do dry burn when they are dry...many only need 1-2 burns....some, with sweet juices, need serveral. I used to start with 1/2 water, 1/2 white vinegar, but I don't see any difference with just water.

hey guys just ordered my 1st 2.5 version. I have the v2 and like it alot. Alot of people are talking about cutting the wicks down. Has anyone tried cutting down just one wick? maybe get the best of both worlds? just an idea

Well, now that's a thought. I'm also wondering if anyone has done this.

So not sure what the best way to ask this is but if I am looking at 7-8 Watts of power my math says I should use the 1.8 (7.6 Watts) on 3.7 right? BUT I have seen a lot of people say the flavor is better on the 2.4 O on 3.7 which would be (5.7 Watt) so be a cooler vape right? So wondering if the setup using a wick etc gives more flavor at the lower wattage. I get home tomorrow and I have 2 vivis waiting but wasn't sure where I should start. All my fluid is 70/30 on clearomizers they are pretty smooth so hoping for a minor improvement with these as well as a major improvement for refill and durability. I could also run at 6V but even 2.8 will put me at 12 Watts. My goal is Flavor not TH or Necessarily a hot/warm hit.

Ok Bad.... now that the new vivi is a hit... please.... please... please tell me.... When can we have 3.0 and 4.0ohm coils to use with our VV devices in the vivi??

I know the new stardust is going to have higher ohm coils. Will these be compatible with the nova???

Id truly appreciate a reply on this. I think I and alot of others want higher ohm coils.

Am I wrong everyone?? Or am I right??

I love my vivi the way it is. I was just wondering how short you guys are cutting the wicks? Maybe a pic? I think for my mtn dew incident last nite I may ruined the 2.4 head the little rubber sleeve came off and not sure how to put it back on the little metal ring came out too. Is it a goner?

Everything you are asking are going to actually be a personal preference... there is no math that will tell you what wattage you like the most with a particular juice. In addition... juice flavor A may taste better to you at a certain voltage and juice B a different voltage.

It almost sounds like knowing the wattage is almost useless but it isn't... it is a starting point that you will use with all of your juices and then adjust up or down to suit your own preferences.

High voltage vapors are now just starting to learn something... it isn't the voltage that is important, it is what wattage you can get at the coil that will affect the flavor and throat hit. This means that it will be a combination of voltage and the resistance that is needed to reach a wattage that you prefer ... and that wattage can usually be achieve with higher or lower voltages

So to add to that then a VV is really where it is at due to the fact that you can adjust accordingly for your preference right? I have seen the kick which appears to be a set it and forget it but like you said juices are all different so then aren't you just back to square 1?

Currently I have the Bombshell from HotVapes which is pretty badass. and a Panasonic 3.7 as well as 2x Tenergy RCR123As so guess I am gonna just have to play around with it.

Now the off topicish quiestion is has anyone made a screw on / add on to turn a standard base into a VV?

I have a love/hate with variable voltage... it is too complex making the user always do the math in order to know what their wattage is... to do that, you must first measure the voltage and then the resistance. But I sill love the ease of adjusting them.

To me variable wattage like the Darwin ( wich is an odd design ) and Kick are the right way to do variable whatever. The downside to a Kick is inconvienant to adjust on the fly. Still, I love my Kick and I'd consider a VV device a step back.

I'm hoping that at some point soon, the rest of the industry will quit thinking VV and switch to the more logical VW type of device. To me, it makes sense to tell me how hot or cool the coil is... not the voltage it took to get it to that wattage.
