TJ, I love your sentence in red at the bottom of your post .... I could have been more careful starting out but I have to agree with you on sticking to repeated tweaking of the original newbie purchases except perhaps for those who went to a mini e-cig like those with the simulated 'ash' tip to perfectly imitate an analog. Nothing one can improve on there I don't think ...
I'm a battery freak so I still don't regret the six 900's for outside or emergency backup use, and you get 2 of those in a starter kit anyway, and I bought two starter kits mostly for the needed clearos and the two starter chargers.It took a month to learn there even existed 2200mAh penstyle
batteries. So yah, I guess I could have afforded a Provari, from the very beginning, but as it is I could have a party for 9 vapers and provide everyone with a vape unit . At least I don't have to panic now every time a battery finally reaches end of recharge ability, nor depend on absolute perfect daily working order of just one Provari or similar mega unit ...
