Jingle Bells on Thanksgiving Day (the "family" grew).

[Spydro]

Got word my first custom stealth tank was shipped yesterday from Phiniac. Have two more in work that will be made from my exhibition woods.

AND...

I ordered two more ProVari's from VaporForce today.

A Stealth V2.5 and a Metallic Bronze Mini V2.5, both with green LED's and black extension caps. Going to black them out same as the Tan Military and Stealth Mini with black bottom caps and Loki rings.

Brings me up to four new ProVari's in November... so I'm ProVaried out (well, until Christmas anyway).

 

[DetraMental]

Wow, it does sound like you have your hands on a few provari's, lol. Nice! Happy vaping for sure!!

Can't wait to see the pics!!

I probably won't bother with pictures until I get all the tanks, etc here for them for a family portrait. Since it's taking a good month for some custom stuff, and some hasn't even been started yet for one reason or another it may be next year. Some of the hold up is on me, I have to get things decided on and shipped to them before they can get started. Some is on them for still not getting back to me again again a month to get the ball rolling. Those I will probably just write off and do without, or see if I can find someone else to do them.

Did get 3 more Loki rings, 2 more custom drip tips, a couple of Diver's and 90ml of premade juice to try out from a new to me vendor ordered though.

I really need to get back to the DIY that I have not done any of since this ProVari nonsense started.

I am simply amazed!
I'll be finally ordering a plain back up Provari, and just don't have the yen (need?) for bling or matching anything!

 

[Impulso]

I have to ask, but why so many? Given that these things last forever, why buy 4? I don't want to sound as though I'm not agreeing. Its curiosity.

Because if one is good, 2 is better, and 3 is even better. It's like collecting anything you like, one is never enough. It's like lighters. If you have nice lighters (like engraved metal ones), you want more nice lighters. If you bought Bic's, you don't need more til the one you have breaks. In that sense, Provari are a collectible, while other batteries tend to be utilitarian.

I like a lot of flavors and don't like switching tanks, so a ProVari for every flavor in the daily rotation is a requirement.

I have the same excuse.

 

[Impulso]

Given my screen name, I wouldnt be surprised if I end up with the same..

Is changing tanks really that hard with the provari or is that the same excuse I'll be using with my wife when I'm in the same boat?

 

[stevegmu]

No, the threading is silky smooth, especially with Tatroe caps.

It can lead to carpal tunnel, is the excuse I would use, however.

I wish the lighters analogy worked for me. I have tons of lighters because I usually used to have no idea where one was when I needed it, and now I find them everywhere when I don't use them anymore. Story of my life.

I'm gearing up to get one on cyber monday, so I'll probably end up agreeing wholeheartedly with all of you.

I just got my first one 8 days ago and I wish I could pull off more. At this point is be happy being able to rationalize the money for a couple more tanks. Instead I plan to keep on ordering one every other week and just hope they go unnoticed.
You sound like you've spoiled yourself though. Congrats

 

[Ozwald]

I have 2 with no plans to get any more. My reasoning was that should I ever have to send it in, I'm not going to torment myself for a week without one.

When I started vaping... I really tried to be frugal. Wasn't sure if I'd want to keep doing it, if it would work, and I stuck mostly to what other people considered tried and true. When I realized I had REALLY quit smoking... I was REALLY going to save that money from cigs and health, I went a bit nuts buying stuff. But after I got the things I needed, I slowed down. And I know I'm well stocked for a long time now. I think that happens to everyone, it's expensive at first, but it gets better.

I am the same way. Right now I really would like to get some different different "tanks" mostly because the mini pt 2 just looks funny on it. The grand vapor clone my wife got me looks nice but is hit or miss on working. For now I just have to wait since it is Christmas and all and I am sure the wife would like me to get her gifts and I not get stuff for myself. Lol

“Bling…”
Whatever works for a person is what is right for them. Gaudy bling, not on my watch.

“So many…”
Simple, I was so impressed with the first two that I wanted more of them.

“Excuse…”
I don’t need any excuses… I don’t answer to anyone but myself.

“Spoiled…”
Just enjoying the pleasures I still can with what’s left of my life as much as I can.


Personal choice...
All of my first ProVari's are/will be "blacked out" with black top/bottom caps or rings and will wear matching tanks, atty's etc. When they are done I'll add a new polished SS, maybe a satin silver or titanium white for the SS, chome, brass, etc top gear.

I had Bic lighters (I never used any other kind after I lost my Zippo) EVERYWHERE because damned if I was ever going to find myself without a lighter...lol

Now I have a whole bunch of lighters that I rarely use.

Yah... but you can start collecting candles now...
