    Default Who uses the extended cap on the reg provari v2?

    I just received my provari taday and i love. I also bought 1 18490 and 1 18650 battery with extended cap. I am a moderate vapor and want to know if you guys notice a really big difference between the batteries. If its not that big of a difference i might end up selling the 18650 and cap and just buy another 18490 battery.

    it depends on your usage ejaye. as a moderate vapor it might not be the worse to switch batteries and start recharging it right away. from my experience as a heavy vapor, the 18650s make a huge difference--i would venture to say you get like double the vape time than the 18490, especially if you use the ones that are 2000 mAH. i would hold on to the extension cap for a bit and experiment.

    Just my opinion, but I prefer the feel of the v2 with the extention as opposed to the regular end cap. Same on the mini. It's just a tad more rounded on the end that the regular cap. The way I hold mine, the regular cap sort of hits the middle of my palm and digs in a bit. The mini with the extention felt rather nicely situated too, so now I'm considering getting a mini for myself. I suppose I could just round off the edge of the regular cap, but it feels wrong to tinker with any part of a Provari.

    I use the extension all the time. Actually never used the normal end cap. What i like is the full 18650 power with all day playing. The size to me is not that big.

    Never tried the smaller batts. I don't even own any. 18650 is king in my world.

    +1 on the extended cap and 18650 batteries. It adds less than an inch overall but vapes for 2+ days before I have to swap batteries. Bigger does = better.

    Before I started vaping, I had flashlights that use 18650s. My first mod was the Silver Bullet, so the extension on the ProVari was a no-brainer. They're the only batteries I use right now. That is until I can't live without a piccolo or something.
