I guess the device he's using in the video posted could be something different, but it looks like a Provari to me.

Edit: I'm still fairly new to vaping (in comparison to a lot of people) so I'm not doubting you; I know more is always better, and I'm not trying to argue against that. It's why I went from Twists to a Provari.

Its a Percise + 18650 with a MNKE battery. AW IMR is 10 watts continuous and the MNKE is 20 watts with a 30 watt ceiling. Im not trying to cause drama or a debate. Just trying to give you a heads up. We are all learning. I am using a Provari right now as a matter of fact. Wish I had known before I bought it, that I would soon want or need more. I am a huge Provape fan but its just not a good fit for my "More is better" style. Like I was saying. My ProV has been pushing max watts since I got a Genesis atty. One time I even got it to push 15.8 watts. It has a 14 watt limit.

Hey Striker, correct me if I'm wrong but if you wrap a higher resistance coil, say 1.8Ω and run your Provari at 6.0 volts you would be at 3.3 amps and get 20 watts. I don't quite understand why everyone builds ultra-low resistance coils when higher resistance allows you to achieve higher watts without excessive amps. What am I missing here?

I was told by someone at Provape that its limited to 14 watts.

doubledown & Kazkonut , we have tested our tank with some pretty harsh cinnamon juice, let it sit with a full tank of cinnamon for 4 days straight, and had NO issues. :) Since our design has no o-rings supporting the tank area, there is zero tension on the plastic, unlike every other tank system in the world that uses o-rings to support the tank, which is your #1 issue with cracked tanks.

Hmmm, sounds interesting, and thanks for the quick reply. Glad to have a Carolina boy in the game :) Another hurdle I have is I need a tank with a OD of less than .825". Does your product meet this? And last is price and release date lol. BTW my birthday is Sept 28, can we do something by then?

so rip, is there going to be a midnight release? :p

i can't wait to dabble into my first real genesis. i got the vivi tank, and the only thing that worked for a while for me was the hybrid ss mesh wrapping silica wick around it. it still burned the flavor over time and gunked up my coils very fast. maybe i should rewatch how to make coils on your yt channel OR it could be i have limited space to work with.

from the teaser site you have, i see that you can take the whole cap off to expose the coils and screws without it being in... anything, correct?

also, i like to experiment, and i want to do a dual ss mesh wick with dual coils. any way you could machine me a custom.. umm top plug is the phrase i'm trying to use, yes top plug with an extra hole for a mesh and extra negative screw post? might seem silly; but even einstein was considered crazy at some point in time.

last thing, is it top heavy? and will the positive post connection to the battery bend in any way? i keep my vmax in my pocket most of the time and i've broken a few of my tanks like that bumping into things.
