Help with Provape Titanium and batteries

[fright88]

Ok so I bought this Provape off someone on the forum came with no batts no biggie so I ordered 2 14500 batts from Madvapes Ultrafire 14500 900 MaH 3.6 volts. Anyways these batteries/mod are very disappointing. My Riva battery with Boge lr cartos last me 5-6 hours same cartos on the Provape only last about 2.5 hours. Which confuses me considering the batterys are bigger. Did I get the wrong batteries or am I just expecting to much from them? Thanks for any help.

Provape suggests the use of High Drain AW IMR batteries. The Provape has built in discharge protection, and so do the Ultrafire batteries. More than likely something is causing the protection circuit to kick in early.

So something like this instead? AW IMR 14500 3.7v 600mAh High Drain Li Ion Battery


Sorry for the dumb questions still learning the battery thing.

Those are the recommended battery yes...

Thanks I'll pick some up when they become available. Also going to try a higher resistance carto to see how it does.

If they are out of stock you can get them from here. That's where I bought mine and they ship pretty fast, not to mention that battery is actually a dollar cheaper there.

Or you could go to Provape and get the black AWs. I use them in mine and they work well. I believe Super-t has them also.

Stick with AW IMR batteries for all your mods, they are the best, whether they are 14500, 18650 etc. You may want to try a HV 3.5 atty from Ikenvape they work well with the Provape and the Provari.

I agree with Liv2ski, I do use the AW blacl as well they have a higher voltage, for example, the Red AW IMR 14500 are 600mah, the balck are 750mah, SuperTmanufacturing or RTDvapor usually have them

Thanks for the replies I went ahead and ordered one from Provape to see how it does. The Ultrafire ones last a bit longer with standard resistance carts but not sure I like them as much. Leaning towards a tank system just can't decide which one yet.

Well the batteries aren't really bigger.

Here's a UF14500 tested for mAh at a rather modest .8A draw.

Only 592mAh. TrustFires (the Flames test at out at about ~700mAh) are a better choice over the Ultrafires. For LR, especially with a single 14500 the IMR's make sense, but don't expect significantly longer vapetimes, some slightly higher initial volts though. If you are primarily a LR vaper you should have gone for a larger battery mod.

Provape suggests the use of High Drain AW IMR batteries. The Provape has built in discharge protection, and so do the Ultrafire batteries. More than likely something is causing the protection circuit to kick in early.

I just looked I saw no such suggestion, and the batteries they supply in their kits are just standard 14500s.

I'm still playing with attys and cartos so far for attys I like 2.2-2.4. I just started using cartos a couple days ago and so far have tried out a LR boge and 3 ohm boge. Both seem to last longer on my Riva batterys. Will try some other batterys though to see how that goes. Waiting on a GGTB to come in so I can try out my AW 17670. Again thanks for all the imput Knowledge is power.
