    Looking for HONEST answers

    if this helps: I had a vamo for less than 24 hours and sold it (really nothing special IMO), ordered a Provari, and am going to be ordering a second. I WILL NEVER buy another chinese MOD again, from here on out it's only Provaris, and I mean that. I didn't want to have to worry about not if...

    To Provari or Not to Provari

    I sold my vamo after less than a day. provari is the most accurate apv on the market. the vamo is not nearly as accurate. also the vamo cannot be repaired like the provari. I wanted something to last my a lifetime and like the provari so much I will most likely order a second down the road...

    A few questions

    I am still learning though I think I know what my perfect(ish) setup is. question 1: for those of you using (if you're out there) 100%PG liquid, do you find one hole is enough for your carto to stay wet while in a tank? question 2: (for anyone) after you fill your carto and get it in the...

    :(

    the use of a magnet sounds scary to me (newb here) so i figure i'll just be patient and wait for the second Provari with AW IMRs to come next week (long wait haha). Thanks everyone who helped

    :(

    I may try to pry the top of one of them if that would fix my problems. I just can't figure out a safe way to pry the center of the nipple upward without possibly ripping the nipple off. any ideas? i can fit something small under the nipple there are 3 slots around it that allow something...

    :(

    my issue with messing with the battery is i don't want to mess them up as I am 99% sure I have a buddy in town that would buy them for his lavatube/lambo. And since I have another Provari with 2 AW IMR's coming, I might as well use this as a life lesson to test my patience, something I have...

    thanks Dave! I just checked and these batteries nipple I don't even think sticks out past the top of the battery. Though they have a nipple it's almost the same as it being a complete flat top. It seems like that is probably the issue. So my plan will be to wait until the new Provari and...

    :(

    I am guessing since the previous owner was using it before me with AW IMR batteries, that it is the batteries. I looked closer at the contact and though dirty it's not as bad as i thought (after looking with LED light). I guess for now I will wait until my second (new/blem) Provari comes (with...

    Bloomington IL (please help if you live here or close by)

    I just got a Provari and am having a hard time getting it to turn on. I think it may be because of my batteries (panasonic CGR18650CH) and was hoping to find a fellow vaper that lived in the same town or close by (Bloomington IL) though Normal IL, or surrounding areas would work as well. I am...

    :(

    well here's an update. I got super fed up with this, bought a $8 fiberglass tipped pen and tried cleaning it. STILL not working. Since this setup came with 2 extension caps, I just said ....... it and bought another Provari off Provapes website (silver v2 blem with 2 aw IMR batteries). Gosh...

    :(

    would a picture of the batteries help? I don't understand if the guy I got it from had it working and I can't unless it's the battery issue and not the contact. I mean the contact is fairly not clean haha. I have tried cleaning with iso and a q tip, it's not getting shiny. Will the fiberglass...

    :(

    yeah nothing happens when the batteries are put in and i hit the button 5 times. I just got my Sysmax I4 Intellicharger and found that my friend's trustfire charger which the other day said my batteries were fully charged was lying. They were only around 1/3 bars charged and I doubt taht could...

    :(

    I just got a used Provari in the mail and popped in my fully charged Panasonic CGR18650CH batteries and nothing is happening. I am really wondering what the issue could be. Does anyone have any insight? The only thing I can think of is the connection is a little dirty. I tried cleaning it...

    Ovale V8 VV discussion!

    I think that one is less because it doesn't feature an ohm meter. the one Eric is selling is the newest version with ohm meter. I could be wrong i didn't look much at the arizona one but Eric's is the latest/newest version. I love dealing with Eric and may pick one of these up just for ....s...

    Volt meter

    no i don't have one and it won't work on your ego twist or vision spinner because it uses PWM, though a review on that site someone says they got it to work with their twist. I just want to know what one works on a Provari.

    Volt meter

    I know some volt meters don't work with devices that use PWM (which most now days do), i understand they say to use an oscilloscope for PWM devices. I want to get a volt meter to be used on my Provari as well as (for fun) on my 3 twists just to have and play around with. Anyone have a link to...

    Wow, that was fast

    my only issue with the v2 is the label and how it comes off over time. I hate the swirls on the v2.5 but really like how the logo is etched/engraved in there. I may just have to go with a v2.5 mini as my second.

    VAMO Owners - Pics, Tips, Tricks and Quirks

    Well I sold my Vamo, had to make room for a second Provari. The Vamo just didn't fit the bill i thought it would, and the VW is not for me, since all 7 of my tanks run the exact same carto. I gave it up after less than a half day of using it.
