Obviously that's an electrical connection issue between the 510 center pin connectors of the Provari and iClear 30.

Take a look at the center pin of the iClear 30. It should be the same length as the outer 510 threading. If the center pin is shorter, it needs to be teased down with a small flathead screwdriver. If the center pin is longer than the threaded outer ring, it should be teased inward to be shorter.

I have a MVP and three Provari's. I've not had any problem with an iClear 30 on any of these. My guess is that the Innokin MVP & 134 use a slightly longer outer ring on their 510 connector rings, as myself and others have to frequently pull the center pin up higher to make connection with other juice attachments. The 510 center pins on eGo batteries are notorious for being loose; over-tightening clearomizers on too tight often makes connection with other clearomizers not make contact.

The Provari's center pin is not adjustable (to my knowledge).

So I have an iclear 30s that works fine on my mpv, innokin 134 mini, and ego twists, but when I tighten it on my provari I get no ohm reading and in wont fire. I can back it of a bit and it works fine but it is loose. All my other tanks work fine. Any ideas?

I have the same issue with both of mine as well. My ProVari lit up the E1 error message the first time I had a problem. I found (via Google) others experienced the same and recommended backing off just a tiny amount (not loose but not too tight either), it works great and feels secure.

The iClear 30S is a good clearo, but it's very touchy. I've gone through probably close to 4 packs of heads for mine, and every single head has had connection issues. I think it's one of the reasons why they pushed the 30D out so quickly.

Oh, and before you get curious, don't waste your money on a 30D. Those things are pathetic.

Yep I changed the coil. Still having the same problem. It must just be the design of the iclear 30s. As long as I back it of about 15-25 degrees it works great, just never had a problem with any othe apv and the iclear so I was a little curious. Still the best vape I have had though.

For the hell of it I just tried the iClear 30s with the beauty ring .. tightens all the way, looks pretty good, and I like the draw better:
