    EGO Threads?

    You definitely wouldn't be the first one to get sucked into the perceived superiority of a newer technology over an older one. Its human nature and we are all guilty of it. Look at the resurgence of large format photography and contact printing, a technology that has all but died out because of...

    provari 2.5 battery

    I think the flashlight market drives the demand for these types of batteries, 18650 being the more common size makes the other sizes a lot scarcer.

    Whats with all the Provari hate?

    I was counting the vanilla and cinnamon as being part of the vegetable group. They are aren’t they?

    Why are e-cig vendors so nosy?

    I've ordered from all three as well and have nothing but stellar service, especially from vape rev. I have ordered on the go with various addresses, yes I have had to sometimes clarify it to a vender so that my order would be placed; I have also had my number grabbed from an ecig vender as well...

    Why do people think it's acceptable for online vendors to shut down their ordering systems?

    I don't mind it, I have been able to score some hard to get a hold of stuff because of this system. Some do it well and keep to the schedule, some only seem to open when they feel like it, I’ve got no time for them. The instant gratification of the Internet, remember when we had to order out of...

    Provari vs. DIY

    I'm going to say it's the second one from the left. What did I win?

    Provari vs. DIY

    I just don't think the OP really knows what a VV/VW APV does..........by his line of questioning I get the impression that he thinks they are just a bigger EGO. Definitely a need for some research to be done. It's going to be interesting to see what his response is, the Chinese can't build a...

    Chrome or Gold Provari?

    This question comes up at least once a week and the answers always run the gamut of ambiguous to a flat out "No". Shoot Provape an email. They are always quick to respond. You could always get a satin silver and just polish it out.

    Provari vs. DIY

    Battery size? The battery size only really matters when we are talking run time or full mechanical Mods. (Which I would avoid till you have done a lot more research) I happily vape for 6 hours on a 18350, size doesn't matter with regulated mods (go ahead and laugh now). You cant buy sufficient...

    Thoughts on this magnifying FT glass & clips contraption for building coils?

    Iv tried something like that before, I got mine from American science and surplus. The clips don't hold the mandrel or what ever it is your raping your coils on tight enough. I just lock a 1/16 drill bit in a pair of large forceps, hold them between my knees and wrap. If I left any gaps, then I...

    diminished battery life on AW18650 using Provari V2

    I would clean the crap out of the cap threads and contacts, the 510 connecter may need to be lightly scraped to get all the junk off. If your batts aren't charging to a full 4.2 volts, then it's one of two things, the batts are damaged and I would stop using them at all or your charger isn't...

    HELP Battery Charger is DEAD! (Tenergy TN270)

    4.2 is what you want, to be safe, check all your batts when they are done charging with a multimeter if you can. The biggest problem I have found with cheap chargers is really crappy peak detection and under charging. To get a batt to a full 4.2 you might have to take it off and put it back on a...

    provari 2.5 battery

    There is two different 2900s that I have seen with out the "PD" ones protected and the other is a flat top. Run time for the PD2900 is crazy long, great folks, you order two they come in fitted foam with a free case. They don't seem to take much longer to charge then my AWs either. If they are...

    Do you still sneak a cigarette when offered ?

    Nope, I'm too weak willed, there's no way I could stop at 1.

    Whats with all the Provari hate?

    Whats with waffles, am I the only one who thinks their over rated? I mean french toast covers like three of the food groups. Not to mention Monte Cristo sandwiches, the pinnacle of breakfast food, and a perfectly legitimate way to enjoy french toast at lunch.

    Whats with all the Provari hate?

    I have no first hand experience with the Evic, so I cant really comment, it does appear to be pretty advanced. I like the idea of the vape profile setting thingy, conceivably you could replicate the vape that a low gauge low resistance coil gives you, a ramped hit. I have a lot of high hopes for...

    Only Wanna Use My Provari

    If you haven’t ordered a new charger yet, RTD batteries has wicked fast shipping, still going to have to do with out for a few days, hey on the bright side, with the right set up, even EGOs will vape really good. Give you a chance to play with them a bit. (not like you have much a choice at the...

    Let's talk grease for mechanical mods ...

    I like the locktite brand of dielectric grease, I have the same trouble with noalox, it gets clumpy and sticky. I have also used good old vasoline, while it works, once the mod gets warm, even pocket warm, it tends to flow out of the threads, loosing it’s effectiveness. I read a couple of good...

    Whats with all the Provari hate?

    You might want to re watch the video, I used the 4.6v as an example. It's long been known how vamos and other 33mhz chipped devices regulate voltage. So do some research, there’s a very long winded thread on it, they compare a Vamo and Provari on an Oscope. If you can’t make it past the forth...
