Welcome to ECF Kelly and to the Provarinati. I have just spotted this thread and was going to answer your original question but I see that Bassnorma has taken you solidly in hand and has expertly walked you through this maze.

This has been one of the most entertaining and rewarding reads of a thread I have had in quite a long time. Bassnorma, you are to be commended for your teaching abilities and your follow-through with Kelly.

Kelly, I applaud you for your persistence and willingness to learn. You have had quite the ride. And you made it in style!

If you would allow me, Kelly, I would recommend you stick to the gear you have and get to know each piece intimately before changing anything up. Now you can explore juices and flavors to find out exactly what you like. It took me 6 months and several hundred dollars of gear before I bought my first Provari and 2 more months before I bought my first rebuildable Russian 91%. Now I have the perfect setup for me. You are well on the way to having yours.

Congratulations!!!

Hey Cindy!!! Vaping is a journey. You will get little bits as you go...:) Pretty soon you will look around and find there is a lot more that you know. If it were not for people being patient with me, I would not know much myself.

That is what is so great about this community, the people who are willing to be nice and help.

When you get your vape PHD, don't forget to pay it forward! ;)

Yes she has led me down a fabulous road, im not jumping off any cliffs and only curl up in fetal position rocking back and forth in the corner A few times a month! As for juice OMG....I consider it an addiction i may need an intervention for! i have packages showing up everyday! at this point i dunno what i even have..its just a huge box of juice, that most of the time im not even sure what they are! (i like getting packages!) As far as equipment...if you read last nites post, i firmly learned my lesson while possible choking/poisoning myself then came back to my vapeing teacher with my tail firmly tucked between my legs!

Is she your "Mr. Miyagi"? I bet she can wax on/off, whilst catching flyies with chopsticks, whilst feeding baby birds, whilst slaying dragons and chopping off heads of zombies...she sounds just that good

View attachment 388188 this is the crazy stuff i just won en ebay, even tho i dunno what half of it is!Comes with provari mini, 2 tanks, pink case, 4 cartomizers, 2 batteries, 2 tips and juice so YEA ME!

You have some more carto tanks there hun...Can you get the hubby to measure the height of them? Then I can show you which cartos to order from IBtanked....

Also, were batteries included? As it stands, you need 18350 batteries....

I would recommend an extender cap though and some 18490s...longer vape time.

Usually when I buy batteries, I buy two. That way one can be charging while I am vaping the other one.

That comes across as rude...do you realize that?

Personally, I have a DNA 40 Flask, XPV, REO and Two Provaris...and yes also an istick

It was the right choice for Kelly and is in no way outdated. Plus she is happy with it...so no raining on parades please.

Truth isn't meant to be rude... I never wanted a Provari, and with this last inception I think it's more outdated and more orverrated than before.

But she likes her's so why would you feel the need to burst her bubble? I think that was the rudeness of it. It's Kelly's thread one where she asked for opinion's and help (look them up in the dictionary if they are words that confuse you), not judgment and condescending comments. Snarky is snarky...rudeness...

Not trying to sway you one way or another...but. If you take some time to read the previous threads in my Why Provari? blog, you'll find a very high number of current owners of a Provari who say they wish they had started out with a Provari from the very beginning.

I second this. I started out with ego-styled batteries with Evod tanks, which were just "OK". I did a lot of research, and decided that rather than getting intermediate devices that I might have to replace over and over, that buying a Provari would be a good investment. The thing is, they're reliable, and they give you the same experience with a battery that is just about to die as you get with a fresh battery. Provape gives you a great warranty.

I've also been happy with the Aspire Nautilus tanks. I use the full sized with the bottom vertical coils, but the minis use the same technology. I can't be certain, but I imagine they give the same experience in a smaller form factor.

Of course, if you don't have the budget to drop money on the Provari and/or Nautilus tanks, don't do it. All said, getting set up with a Provari, 2 batteries, a charger, 2 Nautilus tanks, and maybe a bit of extra juice cost me about $300. That's nothing to take lightly.

Only you know if you can afford it, but if you can, and you don't need to go above 6 volts right now, I doubt you'd be disappointed with a Provari.

Edit: I didn't realize how old this thread was. That will teach me to reply before finishing a thread.
