I still think we need super hero color scheme tips! I'm pretty sure I still need a Spiderman tip :D





Also on a health note: iced coffee and oreos made my headache go away, so they must be magic, and they taste far better than excederine loil

I couldnt agree more i vote Super Hero line to match my IBtanks cant wait to show you all when they come in.

Thanks guys, it gives me a idea what to expect. I have had the Provari over a year and never cleaned it so I suspect that is the problem.

Hey sweetie,
I was having the exact same problem. I use the AW IMR's on both my mini's. I use the extender also, so I use both size batteries.

I found that if I took a q tip and saturated with alcohol and really cleaned the battery connection inside the provari, it helped quite a bit. Kind of hard to do since the connection bar is way down in there and the q tips are short. I got alot of black sediment on the q tip and I also made sure I did the same with both ends of my charger.

Hope it helps a bit. I'm about ready for new batteries I think.:)

Yeppers....clean the ProVari contacts :).....Inner tube and Bottom Cap Threads and spring as well.....when it's all said and done the bottom cap/spring/tube is a conductor as well as the positive pole way deep inside :)

I use an Electrical Contact Cleaner.....it's an Aerosol ..... just spray your all of contact points (including threads) and the inner tube....wipe and voila.....better conductivity. Don't worry if you flood the positive pole a bit, just invert it and the stuff will evaporate in like under a minute. As far as battery life.....hmmmmm Clueless

A product similar to this can be found in auto part stores in Auz :)
CRC QD Electrical Contact Cleaner Aerosol : Amazon.com : Automotive

When my AW IMR 18350s were brand new in December, I got a shocking 10+ hours of use on my ProVari Mini! It's been three months and I've noticed use time has reduced to 9-10 hours. I hope that helps :)

WOW! I just came across this video, it's a very interesting watch, but I have to say that the working conditions are atrocious. No respirators when working with mass amounts of powdered glass!? People shoveling coal into a furnace all day, and seemingly no concern for the safety of the workers!? Please remember this next time you buy a piece of glass marked Made in India. Thank you all for supporting the American Glassblowing Revolution!

So when will you be here?
We'll arrive early Friday morning and leave Sunday afternoon :)

I used my own cheat sheet in San Diego to get a room at Torrey Pines lodge did a little research on 5 stars in La jolla and happens that its the only 1 worked out perfectly:toast:



Don't own a Provari myself but the best batteries for vaping are either the AW IMR's or the Panasonic's but the pan's only come in 18650's
If you are going for battery life in a Provari I would suggest those same Panasonic CGR18650CH's. Make sure to get Nipple top tho as it is required for that battery in the Provari. :)

Vegas + Vapefest + Tripsters = Yippee !!!!
Dude I didn't know about Vegas Vapefest til I read this post! Its in September and we can totally go to that! I think its gonna be me, Kali, and a couple of our friends making the trip I already talked to them about it :D

Evening Tipsters, How is everyone?
Three days of rest, although some of that time in hospital but I am okay now. Back to Radiation tomorrow plus some other tests so I am off to bed in a minute. I will just do some reading and see what I have missed.

Sorry to hear this ... I'm glad your home and feeling better . My aunt is going through all this also .

Hi folks. Sorry I've been away for the last week: things got crazy. I'm not even going to bother trying to catch up on the 60+pages I missed, lol.
On the vaping front, I got my FM red fatbottom tip from the site. Love it, although it doesn't quite match the red in my pipe. I also got my new Phiniac tank to put my BBHD on. Wish I liked it as much: the blue's much brighter than it looks in the pictures on the site, and it definitely clashes with BBHD. I should've just used a plain sandblast design, rather than going the color design route. Short term, I'm gonna take the ss caps off of it and put them on my textured tank. Long term, I'll probably put it on the classys and re-coup some of my funds from it.
Speaking of funds, it looks like I'm gonna be replacing my cell phone in the near future. Anybody got any impressions about the Galaxy Note II? Yes I know it's big and is a phablet rather than a phone. That's part of what I like about it. Apparently I could use it as an e-reader as well as a mobile hotspot. The other big complaint I've heard is that, as my nephew says, it's a "delicate flower". Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Reid, is your textured phiniac a regular size? If so I would be intereded in it. Got a picture of it?

Oh sorry didn't see your question about the Note II. I love it :) Me and the Mrs each got one recently and we don't know how we lived with iOS devices before.

Right now its basically the best phone on the market in terms of hardware. 2gb of RAM, a 1.6ghz Quad-core Processor, comes with 16gb memory but can be upgraded with an microsd card for up to roughly 75gb of space. I read books everyday on mine wheich is why I love the size. We haven't had any build quality issues yet but the first thing we did was purchase nice cases for the phone. Thats always first on the to-do list. If you break your phone and it had no case on it you have nobody to blame but yourself ya know?
