pretty sure the provari would blow out an error code at you and shut down
before it self destructed.

I sure Hope so.

thats Bob. he is the most un-cat cat in the world
I have this same issue with almost every carto i use. All i do is adjust my Provari voltage up/down according to how the ohms change. Eventually i find the sweet spot where it no longer fluxuates.
Got a mod that reads resistance a month ago, and it's showing my ohms go up. 3.0 ohm single coil carto registered at 3.1 when brand new and is now up to 3.6 after 1 1/2 weeks.
I sure Hope so.

LOL yeah, I noticed, too. Such a cute cat!
Just to add to the data, I use Kanger horizontal coil cartos in my tanks. They read ~2.5 ohms new. Using clear liquids after a week they are still at 2.5. Using darker liquids, the resistance creeps up to 2.7/2.8 after a week.
I think, per the discussions above, that the darker liquids gunk up on the coil so that after a while it can't dissipate the heat as easily so the heating effects cause the coil to build up resistance.

I don't think you have to worry about the Provari. They have short protection. That's one of the many reasons they are tops.
Any time I have the slightest issue with a carto, I empty my tank with a syringe, and do the same as much as possible in the carto sponge. I then put it through a cycle in my Ultrasonic cleaner (using only hot water) check the Ohm's on my Provariu, and if I still have issues, I toss it. Even though my Provari has circuit protection, @1.20 each I'd rather chuck a carto then have to worry about my PV.
