    Ms T needs her rest. Please post here if you agree

    I'd say I'm totally on board with this, but it wouldn't mean much since I have a stash (my last order) that I haven't even touched yet. I think a lot more meaningful is those who think she should take her time, but are running low (or out) on juice. Still - take your time, Tammy, and be with...

    Website down due to family emergency

    I'm not glad she's feeling frazzled, but I am glad she's taking some extra time to regroup and take care of herself and her family. Whatever she needs.

    Transit cop tried to fine me..........

    Whenever anyone asks What's that? I tell them its what keeps me away from cigarettes. They usually congratulate me on quitting smoking. The ones who don't ask a lot of questions about where to get one and how much they cost.

    Weird provari problem..

    Not on the carto or the top of the ProVari, just on the threads between the screw-on battery cap and the body of the ProVari.

    Weird provari problem..

    OK - and did you put on some Noalox? It helps the electrical connection between the screw-on base (the negative post of the battery) and the rest of the unit.

    Weird provari problem..

    The body of the ProVari is half the electrical circuit, so it's possible. Noalox is your friend, you can pick it up at any home improvement center. I got a 6 oz container (smallest they had) for less than $10, and it's pretty much a lifetime supply. Every couple weeks I clean the threads with...

    Provari pre-order # ***please post when yours ships so we can keep track***

    My order (19016, pleased yesterday - 03/26/2012) shipped yesterday. Just some batteries, not a ProVari, but I'm happy. USPS says it's scheduled to be delivered tomorrow.

    Found some High Drain IMR-18650 2400mah batteries

    That's good to hear. My 1600mah are about a year old, and they're going a little flat these days. I don't get more than 5 hours from one. I just ordered replacements from ProVape and got the 2000mah ones, hoping they'd last at least a day. Maybe they'll last longer?

    WTF are all my people??

    So, would you mind a double wedding? You and her, and me marrying Hugh Jackman? He wants to marry me, he just doesn't know it yet.

    Provari pre-order # ***please post when yours ships so we can keep track***

    Order 19016, placed today, status is Processing. And, just because I was curious, I looked for my first order. Placed 01/08/2011, order number 3589. Since that time, they've had over 15,000 orders. Not bad, ProVape. Build a better mousetrap (or PV) and the world will beat a path to your door.

    "T's Family Chatter"

    I know what you mean. Inside I don't feel any different than I did when I was mid-twenties. Then I look in the mirror and there's this old man staring back at me. I think he's a stalker. Every time I look in the mirror, he jumps in and lets me see him.

    Please let her know that our thoughts are with her. She should take her time and make sure her son is all right.

    Lost My New ProVari

    I lost mine in a store, and I clicked on this intending to tell you not to give up hope - I got mine back. I can't do that. It's gone, buy yourself another one.

    ProVari essential battle rattle. What do you carry/need?

    Oh yeah. If I drop one (again) and it decides to take a powder I can't be without. A spare is cheap, if it means keeping me off cigs when the worst happens.

    Anyone been the victim of credit card fraud recently?

    There have been many card fraud news reports out here in SoCal lately, and I've read a couple of articles from a trade association I belong to (IEEE). In SoCal, thieves have begun making custom inserts that go over the ATM slot, where you put your card. As you pass it into the ATM machine, it...

    ☆Want To Laugh?☆

    This old family story always goes over well when it gets told. Well, Wendy doesn't think so, but that's because she grew up and married a lawyer and now she's respectable. So Wendy's mother (my aunt) takes her to church. She's about 2. Part of the church service is something called...

    ProVari essential battle rattle. What do you carry/need?

    Sorry, no camera on me, so no pictures. Maybe tonight. I was at the local auto parts store and saw a soft-side pack designed for a 7" navi unit. I bought it and store all my e-cig stuff in it. 1 spare ProVari (stored in a separate cloth bag, so it doesn't get scratched up) 5 spare 18650...

    Cut and paste fromreview of suppliers/ Taste of bad medicine

    Yeah, ditto here, and always in the worst possible way - it lands screw-cap down, so it gets a double slam. Once when it hits, and again when the spring pushes the battery back into the electronics. But it just keeps working...

    As a Provari owner...

    ^^What she said.^^ I have the GLV mini - a replacement for the one I gave away when I got my ProVari, thinking I'd never want another PV. But, it turns out I do turn to my GLV occasionally as a change-up. The mini doesn't do 5v, but they make a model that does.
