Hi - fairly new here at ECF and I have a question. I have a Provari ordered - should get it by the end of the month-3 week lead time. Just curious as to what is the best cartomizer to use with this. I have an eGo-T right now and use the Smoketech dual coils or a LR atomizers. A little advice would help me out. It's a bit confusing for this non-electronic minded woman!! Thanks!:confused:

    I'm vaping my new provari right now with a LR dual coil carto 1.7 ohm (provari reads it @ 1.5) from Ikenvape,with voltage set to 4.2 and i can only compare it to possibly trying to vape the stack of a steam locomotive. I'm about 2 hits away from passing out into a vapor coma. GL with the Provari, you're going to love it

    I've been using the SmokTech regular duals and eGo Mega duals (with the eGo adapter) on my Provari. Depending on the specific resistance I can run these up to about 4.1V or so. However tonight I'll be ordering couple handfuls of these. They're higher resistance so ideal for use on higher voltages, and they're still pretty big.

    If you're not looking for dual coils, I'd get some Boge 2.5-3.0 ohm cartos and blast them at 5-6V.

    Those are beautiful, I cried a little when I saw them....

    I haven't really found much need for the 1.6 ohm dual coil cartos on the provari. I prefer straight dripping on it, or using a tank system. Cartos are convenient, of course, but when you get a carto really hot you can end up with a crummy taste, or wicking issues.

    Once you find your "all day vape", check out some of the tank systems out there, like the MAP, or the Liquinator. You'll probably find them to be a perfect fit for your Provari. If you're still looking for the perfect vape, and swap juices a lot, dripping on a 306, or a good 510, can be really nice with variable voltage.

    Aren't they, though? Not quite the capacity of the EMDCC but still good enough to last me most if not all day, and clear means I can disassemble to clean. They're a big pricey but I think they're going to be worth it.

    I'm all about the convenience personally, so I love cartos. However I am looking at the possibility of a Liquinator.

    The only problem with that is I do a lot of driving and the 2 tanks I tried (MAP & Storm) the minute they tipped a bit they leaked like a sieve. Add to the fact that Provari is already top end heavy and it would be like ASKING for a lap full of juice for me.

    The liquinator won't do that, however I've heard people complain that it can leak if left in a hot vehicle all day. It doesn't have the same issue as the MAP for leaks/flooding, but instead uses a regular cartomizer inside of it (like in the picture in this thread).

    Right now I am using mine with a 3.2ohm High Resistance Ikenvape Atomizer. I am using it with a 3in black and sliver gooseneck, Empire Mod Drip Sheild and Vapemate. (scares the children) Found this makes huge vapor at 5.8-6v, and the vapemate has always overdripped for me but seems perfect when you are burnning through the juice at 6v. I also love my MAP tanks at 2.8 ohm on 4.2v, though they are a little gurgley when left on their side, I guess I figured out the tricks on them and they don't leak.

    I have to say that the SS liquinator is uber sexy and it looks great with the SS tip too

    I really like the SSL. My main concern is using it in the winter. I'm afraid of being outdoors in the freezing cold, taking a vape and accidentally reenacting a scene from A Christmas Story.

    Nice, looks like the 3ml best suits the profile of the Provari, just about butting right up to the bevel. If and when I get one, I think that's the one I'm going to grab.
    When u order one, make sure u ask for it (unassemble)., makes it easy the first time. And use vaseline on rings too.
