There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

I'd advise playing around with the settings yourself, especially once you've taken into account other answers that can act as a benchmark.

For example, I don't have a vape where I can directly control the voltage, but I do have a Flowermate, which heats at three settings: blue, purple and red. The blue setting is quite mild and the vape is quite flavourful to the extent that I can readily tell the difference between different strains (I'm guessing that at this temp, the vapour is fairly heavy on terpenes).

In contrast, the red setting provides a much stronger hit that tastes much closer to smoke than the vapour produced by the blue setting. This makes sense, because I think the red setting is about as high temperature as you can go without risking burning.

If I had a vape where I could control the voltages, I'd be able to test it to find out the rough mapping of voltage to these temperature settings that I'm used to.
