Taste, Vapor Production, and durability are factors I am looking for. Just ordered a Darwin and I am thinking of maybe getting a new atty for it. I know Cisco Ikan and Bauway are nice for lv atties. Just not sure which brand to get for the HV atties and not sure if it maters. Are HV atties the same as regular atties you get what you pay for or are these worth it? Sorry if this question was asked before. Just figured I should ask the veterans first before I get disappointed.

When I got my Big Brother variable voltage mod - @3.0-7.2 Volts, I got three HV Joye attys from heaven gifts. I got the 4.2Ω models (they also have the 5.2Ω models for higher voltage settings but I passed on them), ...and have been vaping the original one since January. The other two attys I haven't used. I'm more than pleased with that ohm setting on the Big Brother at around 6.5 Volts for 10 Watts and the highest wattage that I use. That's for my coffee blend - DV Doppio Espresso, BWB Espresso and Cappuccino which can take the heat. I drip only on that PV. I have tried other ohm'd attys and cartos but I can get just as good or better flavor on eGo-t tanks at lower wattage with my other flavors.

Although 6+V with the HV atomizers Kent mentioned puts less strain (i.e., current, measured in amps) on the atomizer than LR attys on lower voltage* ... potentially any atomizer or cartomizer can be used on a VV device (or regulated power device like the Darwin).

* See this article for background on this issue.
First priority in my book is the quality of the vape, i.e., what type of atomizer or cartomizer (regardless of ohms resistance) gives you the most pleasurable vaping experience. For me, that would be the EastMall 801 atomizer (with 510-to-801 adapter) or the Leo cartomizer (if there were an adapter). For you: ?

As for those Greenhouse One HV510 atomizers in your link, they are well priced, but I'm not sure I would go all the way to China to get them (and pay those high shipping costs). First-rate U.S. suppliers like NHaler and AtmosUSA (to mention just two) can provide you very good HV atomizers ... again, not that you really need HV attys for Darwin's regulated power.
