I just ordered a provari from provape and after just 2 days of light use around the house the top metal cap has come loose off the body! after spending $200 on this damn black mini I am very disappointed and pretty shocked to how it fell apart so soon.

it still vapes but I can tell the cap will probably fall off completely soon. I just contacted provape and hopefully they will be able to help me out without me having to spend a load of money on shipping it back and forth.... :(

I'm sure they will take good care of you. They are the best when it comes to helping the customers.

man, you're really strong!!!

Sorry, just kidding. I would be really upset too if this were my first ever experience with Provari. But with a 1 year warranty you'll be fine pretty soon. Good luck!

I emailed them and they got back to me in about 6 hours which was really quick! and I did what they suggested and I put a wood block on top of the provari and lightly tapped it with a hammer and it went right back into place. Then I did my best to try to take it off again and it wouldn't budge! so overall I am pretty happy with the service from Provape and I will be ordering from them again :)

Here is there helpful email for anyone else out there that may run into like this.



This is odd. I'm sorry the top cap has come off. It's actually press fit into the tube and it would require having a heavy tank on it and knocking it over to loosen the top cap.

This can be fixed from home if you want. If you take a flat piece of wood and put it on top of the top cap, you can then hammer the top cap back down and into place without damaging it.

However, if you would rather send it in and have us look at it in case it is a defect in the ProVari, here are the instructions:

Let's have you send it in and we can take a look to see what's going on.

Just include a note with a brief description of what is going on and a copy of this email with the return so we know it's
yours and send to:

ProVape Inc
14751 N Kelsey St., STE 105, PMB 199
Monroe, WA 98272

We'll quickly turn it around and have you back and running shortly.

When returning your device, include ALL the items you want us to look at in a list format. Example:
1. Please look at this
2. Please include this
3. Can you also check out this



Items to Include with the package:

1. Your Order number:???? Or where you purchased it from.
2. The device
3. Original end cap
4. A copy of this email so we know it's yours.
5. MAKE A NOTE OF WHERE YOU WANT THE DEVICE RETURNED CLEARLY PRINTED ON THE INCLUDED LETTER.

We don't need any other items or the extended end cap unless this is the only cap you have.

It's very important to make sure your address is current on your online account. This is the address where the items will be returned. If you have moved, just login to your account at ProVape.com and update the address then let us know that it's been updated. **IT'S IMPORTANT THAT YOU EMAIL US IF YOU UPDATE YOUR ADDRESS SO WE CAN CHECK THAT THE SYSTEM PROPERLY UPDATED, OTHERWISE IT MIGHT NOT GET SAVED.**

**We recommend using USPS priority mail with tracking for the return.**

If the repairs being done are going to be outside of warranty service we will contact you by email and let you know how much the repairs will run before we perform any actions.

Kindly,
Cecilia

It can be frustrating, especially with getting a new toy but that is a rare occurrence.....I don't think I could pry mine off if I tried, not that I'm going to. You will be taken care of.

same here, my gf and I dropped both of ours numerous times at vapercon with lots of different heavy tanks/Z-atties and theyre both solid as a rock...

but im glad to see you got it resolved, im thinking it might have been tossed around and it happened in the mail, I just watched a 20/20 not too long ago and was surprised/angry to see how USPS/UPS workers treat their packages.

My gf dropped hers down the apartment complex stairs the other day w/ a stardust attached to it, and the provari literally ate the stardust and ego adapter, just devoured them. they are both all bent up and ruined, provari mini not a scratch on it.
