What's the benefit of variable Wattage?

[shatner]

I'm thinking about getting a VMax PV. It has quite a few features including variable voltage, which I'm familiar with. It also has variable Wattage. What's the benefit of that? Say I like vaping at 4.8V. What Wattage should I use?

Does anyone here know? Id ask in the mod section, but I like it here more.

Or should I just get a Darwin? What if the integrated battery dies on the Darwin? Can it be changed? Or if it's after the warranty period would I have to purchase another Darwin unit?

I really like how the Darwin works and would like to get one when I'm back to work and financially stable.

Where's Drott? She has Darwins and would be able to answer this one. I use the kick for VW, but don't do the math, just turn it until I like the flavor/vapor.

Depends on the atty carto.After warrnet Brendon will still replace the batts for a small fee.I don't know all the tecie stuff I just turn the wheel to whats good for me.Session is the tecie hopefully he'l stop by.

If you want a wood thats VW at a reasonable price CK this guy out.He also includes a wood voltage meter.I like mine.Hes going to be making one with a bigger batt.

The benefit of variable waattge is to be able to set the "heat" where you like it and the Darwin or DNA 12 will read the resistance of whatever atty/carto and adjust voltage to the resistance to acheive the watts you set. It's nice for me to be able to build a coil on my RBA and not worry about what the actual ohms are. I can wrap a 1.5, 2.0 or 3ohm coil nd it responds the way I want.

I built a bottomfeeder box w/DNA 12 w/micro-USB chrager and I built a bottomfeed RBA.

bottomfeed RBA, do tell! I mean show and tell!

Ty for stoping in and for explaining. I'm not good at that. But I agree100%. That's one of the things I love with the Darwin and the DNA 12 chip with the RBAs.Just dial in what you like. no err messages just perfect vape.

Believe it or not, it is not a particular voltage that you enjoy vaping a particular juice at, but it is a particular power level or wattage. Watts are a unit of power that is 1 Volt times 1 Amp of current. Due to this, when you change the resistance of the atty, carto, or whatever is heating your juice, the power level changes as well if the resistance is different. P=IE or P=E(E)/R where E is voltage and Ris resistance.

Variable wattage means that the voltage is adjusted automatically in order to obtain the power that you wish applied to your juice, regardless of the resistance of the arto/atty/whatever is doing the vaporzing. Less fiddling. I think what you are looking at is a ZMax rather than a VMax as well. Hope this helps!

Thanks everyone. I'm leaning heavily towards a Darwin.

Seems like they're difficult to get, though. If I can't get a Darwin, it'll be the Provari or Zmax. Probably Provari. But I will have a Darwin when they become available.
