Yeah I think I do like the carto tank combo when its fresh. And I'm getting some boges in the mail soon. Some cartos with two holes and some slotted. Ive heard the wadding material is less densely packed. I think I'll be happy with them. I just dont like being stuck where I am today. One spare carto to last me 5 days. And a lot of free time in which I find myself wanting to chain vape... and i ran out of 18mg juice. Only have 12mg juices left.
And as a Australian vaper I have to order my nicotine ejuices from overseas!?!?!?!

Lighter color juices don't seem to clog a carto as quickly as the dark ones do. I get my Boge cartos from here:
ElectronicStix.Com · 510 Punched Cartomizers
The filler is so dense I have to do the thermometer shake every couple of drops when priming.

Hi rushUNO. Anyone who has a provari will probably say provari.
I went with a evic because it was cheaper but covers most of the bases. I also ordered an mech for other options. I could've just gone with a provari for the price ive paid so far. And if I'm not happy with what I've got I might be tempted to go provari. And maybe regret not just get one in the first place. I guess for me, I just have to wait and see.
My advice to you is just read up on the different styles and different advantages.
There are heaps of nice APV'S. And heaps of nice mechs. Heaps of different delivery systems. All with differences

This won't be popular with many but I have the Evic as well as the Provari. I see no advantage of the Provari over the Evic but see many advantages of the Evic over the Provari. The Evic is much easier and faster to change settings, the information screen on the Evic vs the Provari is like comparing a HD tv to a 1960's analog tv just to name a few. I do feel the build quality of the Provari to be superior but time will tell. I suggest you look at as many youtube reviews as you can stand to watch and make a decision based on what you like.

Glad to read this. I couldn't afford a provari and a mech. Was questioning my decision to get a evic and a mech. But still a little worried about the evic's durability. I can be a rough at times. Like riding my fixed gear track bicycle while really really drunk, at full speed...
Straight into a five foot wheel!!! that was connected to a forty tonne excavator.

Got my magneto. Still waiting for the kick. Draw is a bit tight with the protank 2. But with a boge f17 tank loaded with a slotted cart the draw is lovely and light and pumps out surprisingly thick clouds of vape. Loving it!

Getting familiar with the evic. Enjoying 8.5watts. But getting temp warnings and the protank is still gurgling and the spitting juice when it crackles and pops. Read a few posts about flavour wicks needing to be changed, not sure im up to it yet but it seems like the only fix so I might have to give it a go.

Strawberry shortcake and grape surprise are the best flavours I've found so far. Grape was first, shortcake was a upgrade. Cracked a plastic boge f17 tank with a freckled lemonade flavour. Protank 2 is great except for the juice getting darker and thicker and coils tightening up to the point of needing replacement. RDA was a cheapie. I got my money's worth. Really thinking about getting a good RBA? RUSSIAN 91 PERCENT? But I can only find pre orders and they're expensive and I'm not too I'll be competent rebuilding compared with replacing the protank coils. Hmmm got some flavour samples on the way. In search of the mystical ADV.
The evic is doing great as my trusty sabre. Magneto with the kick is tuned into a hotter sweet spot and hangs out with me later at night when I need a bit more "Kick" and a variety of flavour. Definitely happier with VW over VV. Both the magneto and evic are great upgrades from the volcano inferno that I started vaping on...

" Pre ordered a Russian. Was a big struggle deciding between the russian and the magoo but I went with the Russian in the end. Both clones. Magoo was cheaper...but I'm not experienced enough for soldering non res legs. Or too lazy.. Can't wait for the russian!!!! sure I'll be after the magoo next time my vape habits throw a chunk at my vape budget."

Also got a diver on its way...
Ohh sh¡¥, im out of control.

or maybe I'm just getting use to being in control. Gimme some time to learn how to drive this bus

Been vaping about 3 months. Given that i should just be on cartos and maybe a protank but unfortunately i learn too fast and google too much. I already have a Vamo, SVD, Ego Mega V2 and three mechs. I must have at least 7 carto tanks, 2 protank 2s and 2 Protank 2 minis. I also have 2 aga t2s, 2 i clear 30s, igo W, a Trident Clone and most recently the ismoka Magoo.

I have issues.

I must say the Magoo with my homemade ready wires with 28g kanthal at 2 ohms wrapped around 2 2mm silica wicks with two more 2mm shorties wrapped in is rocking and rolling at 14 watts on the svd. NO LEAKS NO GURGLE just great flavor and TH all on my DIY 6 mg mixes.

Almost forgot just got 2 evods for my wifey...been harping on her to quit the analogs.

I tinker way too much but I love all this vaping gear that keeps coming out and I love messing with new coils and wicking materials.
