    Okay, lets assume the SR single coil is 2.2 Ohms.. At 5V, thats 11.36 watts (Watts = "Heat") and 2272mA The 1.25 ohm DC carto at 4.2V would be 14.11 watts (Really hot.. Most likely burnt-plastic tasting hot) and 3360mA The same 1.25 ohm DC carto on its designed voltage (3.7V) would be 10.95...

    Flying, Airport Security and a new Provari - so not good :(

    Agreed.. I too am glad Provape is taking care of you.. They really are about the top on customer service of any company, in any industry I've ever worked with. Sorry for the birdwalk above.. I travel a *lot* for work, so I have to mind myself in airports.. It just really chops my hide, some of...

    Flying, Airport Security and a new Provari - so not good :(

    Stories like this burn me up.. Sure the TSA has a right to test your stuff for non-allowed substances.. But you too have a right, to get your stuff back in the same condition it was when the TSA took it.. Otherwise, why wouldn't they just "test" every bag coming through security by placing it...

    New ProVari User - Help!

    The ProVape team really seems to be doing it right.. The ProVari is *Hugely* popular, and I (hope) they're making money hand over fist on this thing.. The part that really makes it work, is It seems like, no matter the problem, no matter the situation, the ProVape team is on top of it, fixing...

    Provari button problem or not

    I have that same thing where the board feels like it shifts a teeny amount when I press the button.. I have no problem with this. If it becomes worse, then I'll consider sending it in, but it works fine, and since it ain't broke, no need to fix it :) A truely awsome product, ProVape..

    Can't vape at 3.7 volts

    Smaller wire heats up faster per the same W per mm of coil than larger dia.. Since most are taking 2-6 second drags (of power on) smaller wire is the ticket.. So, short lengths of smaller wire (high resistance) in parallel (DC and TC cartos) to cut down the overall resistance, and suck up the...

    Can't vape at 3.7 volts

    Surface area.. IMO.. Its more coil per ohm gives you the best experience. But, this is neither hard and fast, nor is it any more than my opinion...

    immediate assistance required please

    You will likely find (as I have) that as the Provari gets used more, and more, you'll hear the tone less and less.. :)

    immediate assistance required please

    All 3 of my provaris will make the high-pitched beeeeeeeep as the button is pressed. Its more noticeable at higher voltages (over 5V) Im assuming this is just noise from the EMF generated when pulsing the power on and off (PWM) rapidly to create the RMS voltage you have set. PWM can switch in...

    Help!!!

    Oh wow.. Partially fill the body with alcohol, and swirl it around?! Thats interesting, to say the least. I never would have even attempted something like that.. But if they say thats okay, then.. Well.. Good info to know.. Thanks for posting that link!

    Provari tips?

    Well, it all pretty much boils down to wattage.. More wattage = more heat.. Voltage squared divided by resistance.. So, say you're using a 2.2 ohm atty at 4.8V, 4.8X4.8=23.04.. Divided by resistance: 23.04/2.2=10.47 watts. I personally like most of my juices at around 10-11 watts. if you...

    Smallest battery/mod that will run a 510 LR carto?

    I have a "Mako Minno" (electronicstix.com) that I love.. Its quite small, and takes a 600mAH CR2. Its a bottom-button with a lockout, so its very pocket friendly. I've had mine for over a year, and its still working great. All I ever use on it is 1.5-1.8 ohm attys and cartos. Plus, you can take...

    What connection / 1st mod

    For what its worth, I might stick with the 510 connection on the device.. There are a whole host of 510 attys, cartos, and the like available, as well as every manner of 510 to xxx adapters. Plus, (personal taste) I just love the flavor / TH of a standard resistance Joye 510 atty at about...
