Does the Provari seriously break this easily?

[kas122461]

If you like the pro-tank and how it works, you could try the tatroe tank with tatroe bottom cap from cig techs, all stainless. They have several designs, I like all of them, the only change that they made, is a slightly tighter draw with their bottom cap.

Hi all,

"We" (as in the handyman I have working in my house for some repairs) were able to look at the youtube video and apparently unscrew the stupid thing quite easily with a single screwdriver (2 weren't necessary). Thank you for all the help. I am using a simple cartomizer for now so I don't have to put up with this because me being as clumsy as I am, will be knocking this thing around quite a bit and I don't want a repeat of this episode.

The forum seriously, is about as good a topical forum as exists on the internet. From my first post where I asked for help choosing an e-cig (since I had NO CLUE what to buy) to this, it has been nothing but great, to the point, helpful & knowledgeable posts. Bravo everyone and thank you!

And yes, I edited the title of the thread but frankly, the provari people sell the protank in a package deal as if it were their own product. So they should either take responsibility for it or develop their own tank and stop selling this crap.

This is a very easy fix. Just wad up a paper towel into the connection. Push it in there till it is very, very tight then twist. It will catch on to a piece of the thread. Then push down and twist it out.

It looks like the bottom of the tank's 510 connector sheared off. I think I'm seeing the 3 airholes. Show us the bottom of the tank.

EDIT: The pencil eraser trick seems like a good one to try.

bingo!!!!!

Thanks for that. That is an excellent suggestion.

I'm going to have to second that emotion. For me, at least, the flavor and build quality are as good as it gets. It won't break.

I just ordered my 3rd variation, while my son just ordered his 2nd. Adding the bottom cap option is essential though - don't skimp there if you're going in the Tatroe direction.

That is a sweet mod. I have a two protank 2's. but when I am at work or out running about I use my Tatroe tanks they hold more juice and yes as u can see very durable.

I had to resort to finding a flathead screwdriver that was just the right size to wedge the tip straight down into the broken threads to thread mine out.

I've broken threads off of cartos into the Provari a number of times. Sometimes you can just press your finger in there and twist it out, or use a nail, toothpick, screw driver, etc...
I have also dropped the Provari a number of times on pavement, cement and tile. Barely ever scratched it.
About a week ago, I made a very dumb move and placed it on the trunk lid frame while loading groceries. While I returned the shopping cart, my better half closed the trunk on the Provari. What was she supposed to do? It was totally my fault. Anyway, the trunk lid pressed it against the rear window completely smashing it. It bent the trunk lid a little too. My poor lady was so upset, feeling responsible. I assured her that it was 100% my fault.
Once again, I could not find a scratch on the Provari.

U know when I read stuff like this, it makes me glad I spent the extra money on a Provari.

VERY nice. I'm personally quite surprised at how pleased I've been with the Tatroe tanks. I seriously HATED everything "clearo", and the ProTank was an improvement, but not something I truly "enjoyed". The flavor, consistency and (obvious) durability of the Tatroe are quickly making me a believer.
