VV/VW question about flavor

[Sector000]

Not sure if you're serious or why would you need one? The chart has watts on it. Not that you need it with variable wattage since it auto adjusts the voltage anyway. But say you were going to do one - you'd need every combination of volts and ohms that gives a certain power (watts) - so there won't be the same correlation as the volts /ohms chart has.

I agree a wattage chart wouldn't make sense. It would be just a single box that reads "6W to 8W".

The only watts i knew about before vaping were lightbulbs lol.

As you might expect, it's exactly the same thing.

Watt is a unit of power. It's the amount of energy transfer (to the light bulb) per second.

More watts = brighter light bulb. Likewise, more watts = higher atomizer temperature.

The reason you don't need a chart for wattage is because a watt is already a unit of power. The chart essentially answers the question, "What voltage do I need to achieve 7 watts at the current resistance of my coil?" For VW, you simply set the 7 watts, and your device periodically checks the resistance and "looks up the chart" for you. I think VW is cool because, really, who wants to look at charts?

I'm new to VV/VW batteries. I'm noticing that since I received my iTaste V3, my flavors seem to be muted. I use a Kanger EVOD with ohms being indicated between 2.0 and 2.4 on my iTaste. I have tried 7.0 - 9.0 watts. I mix my juice 50/50. The flavors that worked on my Ego battery and the same EVOD now taste muted, and I'm either tasting PG or VG a little more (I'm guessing that it's one of those two, not really sure since I didn't taste it before). I also notice that as my coils get dirtier, the flavor starts to return to the Ego battery flavor.

What voltage is your eGo? If you're using constant 3.3V, then the power is only 5.4W (2.0Ω) or 4.5W (2.4Ω). At 3.7V, it would 6.8W and 5.7W respectively. Even at the fresh-from-charger and unregulated max of 4.2V, it would be only 8.8W and 7.4W.

So, with the eGo, you're unlikely to exceed 8.8. So you should keep your iTaste below that. If you're sure the power is too low, then it's very likely your iTaste is actually outputting much lower power than its display indicates. Another possibility is the ohmmeter on your iTaste is inaccurate, and as a result, the calculated power is wrong.

variable voltage ...!!!

Without getting too in depth, factory wire, like in a stock EVOD head tends to be pretty thin, IMO thin wire can't handle too much power going through it, it gets too hot too quickly. So yeah, start low then work your way up, it's much better than starting high and burning your juice and getting a nasty taste that won't go away for awhile. I've only tried one coffee flavor, but I've heard they tend to do well with a warmer vape, mine has chocolate in it too and honestly I haven't found a good setting for it, too high and it burns and gunks up the coil, too low and it simmers... And gunks up the coil. It's possible it's just not a very good juice, hope yours does better.

Yup it's all about coil temperature and the ability of the wicking system to supply juice to the coil
