    Blue vs. Red LED

    I've always wanted one with the blue LCD.. Is there an option to specify color, or do you literally just need to wait until they update their product page with a new item that has the blue LCD in the description?

    How much battery life do you get from your provari?

    Usually 3/4 of a day, then I do the ol' charger swap. I'm using the 18490's and probably avg 20-30 hits an hour, more if I'm having coffee.. ;)

    Provari through airport security

    I brought mine through customs in a few countries, and a variety of airports (including IAD/ORD/MIA, which are all very security-sensitive airports) and not once did anyone even question it. Carry on, with tank, and a small bottle of e-liquid, all in a sunglass case. The rest of the stuff I...

    V1 or v2 what is the difference

    So, just to tack on another silly question.. :) How do I know which one I have? I ordered mine in January (2012).

    I'm at stage 4!

    ^ that's true, but once you get DC cartos at 2.5 ohms or higher, you can always hit 6V, though I usually run my under 5.5V for taste.. I can run 2 ohm cartos at ~5V-5.2V at the top end before I get E2. 1.5 ohm cartos E2 at around 4V, depending on the actual carto.

    I'm at stage 4!

    Yes, it uses a 510 connection. Downside? I guess maybe weight if that matters to you? Price? Delay in getting the unit if you want a specific color combination? Functionally, I don't see any downside. 18650 has a higher mAh rating, so it lasts longer (assuming you use them on the same...

    Probably already answered somewhere, but what does a Provari do that a LavaTube doesn't?

    Yep, I've run my 2.5 DC @ 6V, and I have a few 2 ohms that test out at ~2.1 that run at ~5.2V as well (on the Provari). So yes, I would add 'run a DC carto @ 6V' as something Provari can do that LT can not. That, and the Provari will still be working in a year.. ;)

    Finally ordered!

    Just got mine on Friday, this thing is great.. It's been a long road, I went through the crappy, uqbiquitous cig-style 510 kit, moved on to K-GO 1100mah batteries +cartos, stepped up to a 6V Indulgence, and now the Provari + DC tanks (2.5). Finally, I'm happy. Loooove the Provari! We'll see if...

    It Arrived

    Batteries didn't show up... grr.. Oh well, guess I'll have to look at the Provari and imagine vaping it until tomorrow..

    It Arrived

    Sweet.. this is not my first PV by a long stretch.. I wasted so much time and money on BS starter kits and EGO / kGO batteries, etc.. I finally got an Indulgence a few months ago and was stacking two RCR123a's to get up to 6V+ and then that POS died on me.. So this has been a long road...

    A complete Newb!

    Congrats! When you get tired of water, I like Gatorade G2 (don't get the full sugar stuff, crazy calories..)!

    Tank for the provari

    I looked at those a while back, very similar to the AltSmoke DC tanks, which are cheaper, but also have the flanged cartomizers. I liked the AltSmoke tank a lot, no leaking issues, and good hits on my Indulgence (which finally died on Tuesday). I haven't used it on the Provari (still in the...

    what it is about thr Provari

    When did you order? I ordered Tuesday night, and it's already shipped.. I just did the Satin Silver non-kit though.. David mentioned something about clear drip tips and 18650 batts being out of stock (at least when I spoke with him on Tuesday).

    It Arrived

    Well, provari wants $198.90 for the Satin + 2 18490 + charger. I got the provari for the $159.95 + 2 18490 + charger for $30 shipped.. When I said ~$20 I was looking at the full starter kit, so I guess I only saved $9 in that sense. Anyway, batts + charger were from rtdvapor.com. AW IMR...

    It Arrived

    Ah, I ordered the batteries / charger from a different place.. Saved ~$20, and still got 2 IMR AW 18490's. Didn't need the drip tip / cartos.

    It Arrived

    Here's my new definition for the word 'torture'. Provari USPS ETA - Friday 2/3/2012 18490 Batteries / Charger USPS ETA - Saturday 2/4/2012. I suppose it could be worse.. the batteries and charger could be showing up on Monday..

    Can we use Boge 2.0 Cartos?

    Thanks.. I ordered some 2.5 dual coils for my 6ml altsmoke tanks.. I figure that'll give me a decent range until I find a solid 3.0 tank setup that doesn't cost me $50. :)
