    Well, I did it.................

    OK guys, I just bit the bullet and ordered me a Provari. Satin Black with 18650 extender cap, unit only, not the started kit as I don't need all the extras. I have a Pila charger and several 18650 batteries and all the other stuff since I have 2 Lavatubes............. I've been fighting the urge...

    Provari 18650 batteries

    Thanks guys. Looks like I can use 6 of my 10 batteries with the Provari. 4 of them are the Starfire 18650's that Wabbeln linked to above so I assume they won't work...... :( Well, I can live with that. The Starfire work just fine in my LT though so I can always use them there.

    Provari 18650 batteries

    I'm seriously considering getting a Provari.......... I probably shouldn't since they are pricey but I have 2 Lavatubes that I love but both of them have made trips to the "tube hospital". Exchange has been easy but I'm getting tired of the problems. One malfunctioning LCD display in April, then...

    Battle Pack first impressions

    Well, maybe it needs some steeping time. When I tried it yesterday, I got a pretty strong coffee/mocha taste and with the other undertones that I can't define yet, I was surprised that I liked it but it was gooooood and even though I drink coffee, I generally don't care for coffee vapes! I'll...

    Battle Pack first impressions

    Yep, so far definitely a coffee/cappuchino/mocha taste to it. It is gooooood and I usually don't like coffee vapes either. But this is delicious... Maybe I should let it steep a while before trying again to see if you are right and there's maybe no coffee after all? LOL!

    Hi everyone

    Congrats on the Provari!!! I want one myself but it's not in the cards to spend that kind of money right now in one purchase. So, I'm still waiting and happily vaping on my Lavatubes. I love them. As for tanks, I kinda like the Vivi Nova, got mine on Thursday but it does mute the flavor...

    Battle Pack first impressions

    Got my battle pack in the mailbox today and got busy right away sampling the flavors. I just couldn't wait.... So, here are my first impressions: Bianca's Bliss: YUMMMMMMM...... I like that one. I can't pinpoint what's in it (not yet at least) but it's gooooood.... Fruity, sweet but not too...

    Too good to be true?

    Is it 100% safe???? I don't have the faintest idea and neither does anyone else.... Is it safer than cigis? IMO - that's a wholehearted YES regardless of what my own brother tries to tell me (he's in Germany and is believing the scare tactics of some of the politicians)............ I believe...

    I think I have decided. Now more questions.

    I agree on the 1100 mah.... I'd go with Option 2, which includes the bigger batteries. As you get into vaping more, you will find that the 650's don't last you all day. Not a problem if you don't mind carrying extra batteries though. I would order at least one additional battery anyways, if one...

    Provari, VMaXX, or Chrome LT?

    I just ordered another V-tube from Apollo as my Chrome Lavatube shorted out last night and won't do anything but blink.... I love the LT, want a Provari but sorry, I don't want to spend $200+... I went with Apollo since their warranty is as good as Volcano (1 year) and the prices are cheaper. I...

    Apollo V-tube shipping times!

    WOW! I am thoroughly impressed! I ordered a v-tube (body only) an hour ago from Apollo as my Volcano LT decided to completely die on me last night. I still have a black volcano tube but I wanted a backup for the backup once I get to ship the Chrome tube back to Volcano for replacement so I went...

    TSA and the Ecig FAQ

    I doubt it. Just throw them in your regular liquids Baggie. That way they'll most likely ignore them as the cant tell if it's shampoo, conditioner, soap, hair stuff or whatever and probably won't give it a second look. When I flew to STL a few weeks ago I was only gone for one overnight stay so...

    ego-t and security at airports-

    Most likely not. Liquid tank in a "liquids" baggie, leave ego in plain sight for them to inspect if needed, all other liquids (less than 100 ml) in liquid bag, extra batteries also in plain sight for them to see, that way you shouldn't have issues. I got through security with a Lavatube and...

    Looking for a quick answer

    Tanks will last u for a good while but you will still need tank cartomizers to use in the tank. A tank is just a plastic tube that holds more liquid than a carto without a tank. There's no atomizer in a tank, nothing to fire and vaporize your juice. There are no attys that will last "forever"...

    What is the advantage of a VV?

    OMG, I'm sure you just opened a can of worms here and you'll get bombarded by much more seasoned vapers than me with suggestions to buy a Provari.......LMAO! For myself, I love my Lavatube but I don't have much to compare it to, I went there from a mini-cig. However, I like VV, it lets me "dial...

    Anyone try to quit vaping?

    No interest in giving up all the yummy juices so I can't say.... I'm assuming it would be quite difficult, at least for me. Nic is easy, you can step down and wean yourself off but vaping???????? THAT would be hard hobby to give up. I LOVE IT! :)

    Carto lifespan in tank

    3-5 days at the most, at about 4 ml's daily of my favorite juice. The other tanks, sometimes more as I don't vape them all day, just off and on. After 3-5 days, juice gets a muted flavor or burned undertone even though they are WET, I guess it gunkes up at the coil and I'm tasting old juice...
