    Provari 3 battery life indicator inaccurate???

    That is so nice of you! I'm actually 3.5 hours away (Roanoke area), but very much appreciate the offer. If I were nearby, I'd be so into that. I also have so many juices that I've ordered and wish someone else would love them so I don't just trash them. ;) If you're ever in the area... please...

    Provari 3 battery life indicator inaccurate???

    That makes sense (re: COV batts). They definitely don't look like the real ones in the link. A few of mine do have the black AW sticker with silver rim. Fingers crossed. Wow, I'll be stoked if the new batts work!

    Provari 3 battery life indicator inaccurate???

    Just out of curiosity, Jim, why wouldn't you trust the batts from COV or Provape? I've totally sidelined the 3 yr old batteries from Provape because they're old, but COV is on the authorized seller list. Why do you recommend RTD exclusively?

    Provari 3 battery life indicator inaccurate???

    Thanks, Jim. You know, I sent a battery in with my Provari when I mailed it back for "repair", though. And the same batteries are working beautifully with my old provari, so I'd be surprised, but intensely relieved if the batteries are the problem. I'll give them a go. I can never have too many...

    Provari 3 battery life indicator inaccurate???

    Let's see.... 4 from Clouds of Vapor, 2 from KNR Wholesale (on ebay), and 2 which I bought with my first Provari 3 years ago.

    Provari P3

    I'll start this by saying that I have a Provari that is 3 years old now and has made me a big fan of Provape... in the past. That thing has been thrown twice by a toddler, knocking its head off, leaving me believing it was toast, only to vape easily after I shoved the works back in. It's a...

    Provari 3 battery life indicator inaccurate???

    I have the same issue with 18650 batteries. I bought two new AW IMR 18650s and a new charger to rule those out as the problem. Provari tech support told me to clean the contacts and sent me a new spring, but the problem continued. Cleaning it helped the battery IQ and seemed to improve the...

    The Mysteriously Rapid Depletion of Multiple Batteries

    Thanks, Ryedan! I do have an update... :) Provape recommended checking the IQ, which was.... poor. And I tested a brand new battery... still poor. And, if poor, they recommended cleaning the spring, contact, and threads. While they didn't appear dirty, there was a lot of grime on close...

    The Mysteriously Rapid Depletion of Multiple Batteries

    My coils range from about 1.8 - 2.5 ohm. Watts: 9 - 10 w. Not sure how that would affect anything but rapid drainage, though.

    The Mysteriously Rapid Depletion of Multiple Batteries

    I'm bedaffled. Here's what I have: 5 AW IMR High Drains (2 purchased in the last 3 months; 1 in the last year; 2 that are older than I can confirm with certainty) 3 Chargers (2 Nitecore Intellicharger i4v2014, 1 Trustfire with 1 working slot) 2 Provaris (1 v3, 1 v2) 2 Odysseus RBA The Problem...

    I'm relatively new to this thread, but have been vaping for over 4 years. My base for a couple of those years was Tasty Vapor. A year or so ago I ordered some from MBV based on reviews. Out of about 10 flavors I've ordered and samples I've received, I vape one... Graham Cracker. Not amazing, but...

    I just had to stop in for a minute here... in a rush this afternoon. BUT... Holy Vapes! Good Life Vapor absolutely nailed the crust on this key lime pie (aka "The Keys"). Wow, it's a refreshing vape right out of the box. Loving it!

    Interesting! What voltage have you found to be best to bring out the sweetness? I'll play with that using the frapp I have here from TPR, but I've also ordered 30mL of Ahlusion's Tiramisu, so I'm hoping that will be heavier on the sweetness and lighter on the coffee.

    Great thread! For my trials, anyway. Not my wallet! In my last two orders, my favorites have been the free samples! The Plume Room's Peanut Butter Creme Pie (free sample) and Vaopr Chef Colbert's Wonderful Nuts (freebie) are delightful! Just ordered 60mL of the latter and will definitely...

    Which insulator goes with steel connector?

    Thanks, J. I was thinking it was awfully nice of River to be so thorough in his help to find the right part. Kindness does flow around here. It's hard not to be part of it. :D

    Which insulator goes with steel connector?

    Sorry for the delay - here 'tis. I don't know if that's helpful, but that is where I have had the orings in the past and they were pushed up into the insulator in the process of connecting the two. ------------ Oh. LOL Now I see you said NM on the pic. Well, maybe it will help someone...
