:offtopic: but How does that cool fire rank? I just got my brother to start vaping and he is big into military/Macho stuff...I was thinking about getting that for him as a B-day present but I want to make sure it's a rock solid device..?

I like mine, looks good with an RDA on it. Battery life is... well 18350 battery life. I got it because GRENADE!!!!!!!
If it was my only device I would need a backpack for batteries :)

It is one week old and has not failed yet, except for the battery changes of course.

Bought it for the fun factor, but it is actually a nice little mod. It only takes 18350s, but that's ok. It is VW and I do not really notice too much battery drop off. It's got a Cherry Vapes limited edition drip tip on it in camo. Proceeds go to the Wounded Warrior Project.

Smaller 134s are also coming out soon, in 18490 and 18350 mode. Need a bullet drip tip for those.

But I do seriously like that new iTaste 134 mini.... Very nice....
I'm sorry, but that thing is so hideous, you couldn't pay me to use one.

I don't mind stuff being ugly if there's a functional reason for it to be ugly. E.g. a Protovapor is not beautiful, but every bit of it is what it is for a functional reason, whereas the iTaste 134 (and mini) reminds me of something like this.

I'm awake. I can play that game too, Lion.

Those are posers. No juice in those tanks. :p
Don't you love the disillusioned look on her face? It's some of my early work, but an inspired effort, if I do say so myself...

To be honest, I wasn't exactly paying attention to the face either. :blush:

If I didn't use a ProVari, I'd still be a victim of BT. Rock solid. Every. Single. Vape. It's the analog puff of the electronic age. You don't get a bad puff from an analog. I don't get a bad puff from my ProVari, pure and simple. This isn't fanboyism, it's real life.

Provari threads are always the best!

I don't use mine much anymore, but they are still one of the best vv's out there as far as build quality/longevity.

Old school black chrome with a MAP DCT carto tank (remember those?!) The finish is now beat to hell, but the device keeps on going...and going...and going.


That's a fantastic Pic...Did you take that or was it a stock pic somewhere? (P.S. someone will complain about the fit soon just to troll us all again)

So I'm new to vaping.. I started with an ego and a pt3 which works quite well for me.. I like how it works and the hit is pretty nice so I got another as a spare.. All this talk about Provari's seems a bit over the top really. I appreciate that it is US made though.. and studying it online.. you can see it is a quality device.

It just looks so big.. I watched some reviews on youtube and that is one hefty device.

Is there anything of comparable quality with a smaller form factor?

I like the size of the ego.. it fits my hand and pocket very well.. but I do want to try a vv device to see how that tastes.

I don't care what it costs, but to get quality does it have to be so big?

No, you don't have to have something so big to get good quality. From what people say in threads far more useful than this particular one, the Itaste vv v3 is a quality piece of gear. You don't have to carry around the device and spare batteries, it can be vaped while charging, and it seems to have an easy to use interface. And to be honest, in my opinion, it has a leg up on the provari, it has ego threading so there's no need for an adapter.

Zoe's underwear wins for making me spit coffee onto my keyboard.

Phil Brusardo also had his ProVari at Vape Bash in Chicago last year. I have a photo so it happened.

I have 3 ProVaris, 2 MVPs, 2 VTRs, a 134, and a Cool Fire2, so which side of the room do I sit on?

I don't know which side to sit on either...

What's an ideal source for such an o-ring?

Hardware store, especially like Lowes - plumbing section - Faucet repair kit area they have just about any o-ring you could possibly need to replace or modify anything in our hobbie.
Just match up thin o-ring slightly smaller than the head of the center pin.

Nothing has to be taken apart and nothing gets interfered with. You just sit the o-ring on top of the pin and work/stretch it until it slips underneath. May need to tuck/center once in place.
