    canvape???

    EMT isn't that hard to do, once you get the hang of it, but I do prefer CC or PP. I'm hoping CV will get it's PP account back up and running. -- Glenn

    Provari

    Wow, you lucked out on the duty. I was talking to a sales person at a Toronto vape shop yesterday, and he said he didn't pay duty when he bought his Nemesis from the US. I guess it's a bit of a lottery. -- Glenn

    Kick 2 question

    I noticed that Evolv is selling off Kick 1's very inexpensively, and if you decide not to buy a Kick 2, I would recommend getting the '1' rather than one of the knock-offs. I have an SmokTech 'Kick', and I don't particularly like it due to that 33 Hz PWM chip. The Evolv '1' that I have delivers...

    I have the provari and the MVP

    I totally agree with your comments. When there are people in the new members forum wanting advice about buying their first APV, I've often suggested looking at the MVP V2. I've never even mentioned the ProVari, other than to newcomers who asked about it. My Vamo is literally falling apart...

    str8 up newbie question about batteries.

    In generally, possibly yes, but not necessarily. In my experience, I sometimes get longer battery time from high quality 18XXXs (eg AWs) than from a cheaper battery with a higher mAh rating. I've heard it said that some brands overstate mAh ratings. Here's a two-part blog on mod batteries...

    Advice to build my mod

    If you're new to vaping and planning on cloud chasing, please do some research on battery and mod safety. Here's a couple links to get you started. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/baditude/4454-7-information-resources-your-first-rba.html...

    I have the provari and the MVP

    Nice try, but I typically get an entire day and evening out of the house on a single 18490 battery (12+ hours). It's almost spooky how good battery performance is with the ProVari. Previously, with a mech mod, I typically went through one-and-one-half 18650s over the same time period. <Tag...

    Canadian PIF Giveaway Icebreaker

    It looks like I may not make the post office today, but I did pick up the merch, see below. ZDog i'll PM you the tracking number once I get it, to pass on to your uncle. If I don't get to the PO in time today, i'll definitely do it tomorrow morning. -- Glenn Edit; Um, that was 'pass' with a...

    Provari

    It seems that KAV has limited stuff in stock, in terms of ProVaris, but my understanding is that you can basically order anything from ProVape thru KAV. Not necessarily a huge advantage compared to ordering direct from the US, although it does take some of the uncertainty out of customs payments...

    I have the provari and the MVP

    I put together side-by-side stills of the two devices, to make the comparison a little easier. I've seen a huge difference in coil brightness, while doing dry burns during RBA rebuilds, between a Vamo and a ProVari (which is pretty much to be expected given the difference in PWM rates). The...

    Provari

    KAV doesn't sell ProVaris through the normal online order system, you have to phone or email the shop to set up the order. -- Glenn

    Ready to start using mods

    Greetings, welcome to the forum. It's always good to have backup devices, so even if the APV (or regulated mod) that you buy comes with a topper, you still may want to buy other clearomizers or cartomizers. I don't know much about the Lavatube, but like most APVs, it should be possible to buy...

    If I like bobas bounty

    Greetings, welcome to the forum. I just found a place that sells Alien Vision e-liquids in Canada -- normally we Canadian vapers have trouble getting US e-liquids across the border. I'm waiting to receive an order of AV's Gorilla Juice, which is described as having some similarity to BB. Can't...

    Provari

    Kick Ash Vapes in Niagara Falls also carries them. In the ECF/AVP/ProVari subforum that's now shut down, someone from Brampton posted the bill for his ProVape order, including shipping and duties. My recollection is that the total price didn't vary a lot, compared to what you would pay buying...

    Provape provari - best settings

    Depends on what I'm vaping. I was running at 1.4-oHm Genesis RBA at 5 volts this morning, with a very light tobacco-flavored e-liquid. Now i'm vaping a thick Papaya-flavored e-liquid on a 1.6-OhM KF 3.1 clone at 4.2 volts. BTW I just got my ProVape ProVari ring, and I want to show it off...

    E-cig exploding?

    Given the nature of E-Cig batteries -- at the risk of sounding like i'm editorializing -- it's definitely necessary to be mindful of safety issues. There's a good ECF stickie on this topic: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/19698-abcs-batteries.html I can't speak about other...

    This is what a KF looks like on a ProVari (mini w/ 18490 extension), with that new $8 ProVape ProVari ring. -- Glenn

    Innotaste SVD and Batteries

    I don't know about the SVD specifically, but regulated mods generally have a lower voltage limit (around 3.2 volts) below which they will not fire. So in theory a properly functioning regulated mod cannot overdrain a battery. One of the problems with many regulated mods is no after-market...
