Fab I can get shocked on my provari from using a protanks?

As near as I can sort out the shock thing. I think it depends on the head in the protank or nova or whatever. If you have a head with a short (or something not right going on) and use protank (metal mouthpiece) or nova with a metal tip. THen yeah you probably could get a bit of a shock.

I am no expert but that is how I sorted it out in my head.

I tried to help that thread I put in my two cents about the bounty of kangerland. Easy to set up and easy to vape and easy to keep running. God I might be a fanboy ::ohmy:;

I really like my kangers also, but I don't go out of my way to insult and demean someone who doesn't like them or has had a bad experience with them. Makes me a fan of Kanger, but not a rabid fanboy.

Good, that might have earned you a few points....

I have heard that the anodized metal of the tip is not conductive. I am not certain that this is true, nor could my brief search for specifications find anything definitive. Her Highness will know, she will be here before too long.

Exactly what prompted me to start this thread! FULL CIRCLE, again! I wish we weren't stuck in the Lounge, people could actually read posts such as these and understand where simple is usually the best thing for a new vaper.
Unfortunately, it was serious. Someone offered personal help, which was just as well; the real questions (what atomiser/volts/resistance was being used) didn't get asked until the pro-prothingies had mauled the thread.

Poor noob, exactly why a new vaper should just get an ego or something. No the problem was not the Provari, but it doesn't make it easier to get the thing working when the user doesn't know about volts and resistance, and people spend time defending the battery case instead of finding out what the real problem is. (Not enough liquid in the cartomiser)

Guys I think I might take a break from forums for the rest of the day. Between some crap on the 3 forums I follow I am finding I am just not in the right frame of mind to not get cranky. I am so not ruining my weekend over various forums.

Have fun everyone and see you tomorrow.

Hope your day turns out nice, and you're right, no point in ruining your weekend.

Thanks guys! I was just curious on the time frame. I'm not in any rush to get it just found it odd. So used to the usps DC saying "processed through sorting facility" yada yada in the same day heh.

I'm getting some t4s chelle suggested. I can't wait to try rebuilding them.

I also ordered an airflow controller yesterday for my EA from some supplier in CA. I don't believe they are registered here so I won't mention their name. I was a bit nervous but with a quick search discovered they had a few b&ms so that tells me they are on the up and up.

I have no idea why a supplier wouldn't want to be registered here. The word of mouth advertising must be very helpful.

Hi!!! Butters!!!!
My stuff seems to be "stuck" in San Francisco. The hang up once it gets to the US is dreadful. Let us know about the T4s. They are coming down in price so much, they are almost getting to be "disposable."

I will. I'm not even going to use the stock head I'm going to rebuild it lol, some people don't like spending the time and effort doing it but it's fun to me and keeps my mind busy. I also feel like I accomplished something.

Been waiting for weeks for something to blow up so I can rebuild it, just can't bring myself to kill a working coil just so I can resurrect the device.

Understandable. The reason I do it is because my coils out perform the manufacturer. I found high quality silica from a vendor finally. Plus the fact I use kanthal. I'm sure the Chinese save as much money as they can by using nichcrome and fiberglass.
