18340s in ProVari Mini

[mndh1007]

Basic question is how long is the battery life in the 18340 ProVari Mini...

 

[Topwater Elvis]

Depends on the power & resistance being used, 18350's last me about 2.5 ~ 3 hours, my wife 4 ~ 5.
Some folks get longer some shorter.

I am a chain vaper, running a 1.3 coil at 3.6v on my mini, and my 18350 will usually go 6 or 7 hours before I have to change it out.

Mini doesn't take 18340s, it takes 18350s.

you should get about 3-5 hours vape time, depending on what delievery device you are using. Low resistance and/or dual coils will drain the battery fast

About 5ml of e-juice...

WOW!

And they say RDAs waste juice fast...

 

[mndh1007]

Itd be on a Nautalis

That's about a full day's worth of vaping...

I should hope so. That's about what I go through in a day... At 0.2 ohms.

I tested it once. I got 3 full 22mm IBTanked HalfLing tank fulls, 2.0 ohm coils, out of an 18350 on a Mini.

Depending on draw technique i could see that. Happen to remember what cartos?

Smok. The HalfLings have tremendous airflow, with a wide bore Cherry Vape drip tip.

2mm laser punched by chance?

2 hole laser punched. The ones IBTanked sells. Not sure about the size of the holes. Wicking is never an issue because I use high PG juices- like Halo and ProVape juice.

Then definitely doable with a provari. They're pretty efficient. Not with a vamo or most other toppers even on a provari though. IME, of course...

ETA: MAN! Do I wish a Carto would do it for me...

I vape those cartos at low power; 3.7v or less, depending on the juice..

Yeah, don't need much for a decent carto. I have about a dozen or so IBT Tanks myself... well... The wife does now.

I haven't found anything better for ease of use, taste and consistency. The wide bore Mings I mostly use really make a difference...

Agreed. Wife uses the cherry vape friction fit mings. Fantastic vape. Just for me doesn't produce enough vapor unless I up my nic substantially. I'm already at 50 mg for crying out loud. I highly recommend such a setup for vaping bliss for nearly any vaper.

I have to admit to taking a sneak on her provari (or my old.one) here and there for a nice, smooth, tasty vape from time to time. IBT & provari is definitely a winning combo.

Did anyone notice that the OP said 18340 not 18350, 18490 or 18500?
There is no such battery that I can find.
Now if he means 16340 (CR123A), they won't fit in a provari.

With AW IMR 18490s (1100mAh) I figure I recharge 1.5 batteries/day at my vape pace. So I would guess 2 to 2.5 18350s/day.
