LOL, my said wife close to the same thing reading this over my shoulder trying to see what I was giggeling about
Mine should be in the mail box as we speak. I went home for lunch crossing my fingers that it would come, sure enough walking into the house and the mail man was right behind me, like a kid at Xmas I ripped the box open, unwrapped the mini from it's cocoon of bubble wrap. Then started digging through the packing peanuts looking for the rest of it. Damn it's tiny! Of course anything would seem small after carting around a bombshell stinger. So I go to try it out and realized I hadn't charged any batteries. On my fith and final batt I got 3.9 v success! So now It needed a hat, first try .8 ohm, crap five more devices and nothing over 1.2, crap. No time to wrap another coil, then I remembered my AGI. Screwed it on, clicked the button and 1.9 ohms, success. Mabee it was all the buildup or the excitement but that was the best vape I ever had! Of course my wife had to come in and ruin the moment, her first words were "oh how cute"! I'm glad I orderd the Le cap with the skull on it. It's not cute it's one bad .....
That would have been mine; I'll post them again since that thread is likely buried by now. Also note the Pro Rings on both Provari's, and also the new colored pyrex tanks for the AGA T2's.
I have both a red and a green tru-stone drip tip awaiting delivery from Drip Tip Designs to finish my setup's look. http://www.driptipdesignz.com/tru-stone.html
Above is my regular Provari and Mini with a Tatroe base (18350 battery).
Above is the Mini with Tatroe base and one extension sleeve for 18490 battery use.
Above is the Mini with Tatroe base, and two extension sleeves for 18650 battery use. Note that regular Provari battery cap can be used instead of the Tatroe base.
Closeup of the Tatroe base and two extension sleeves. The Tatroe base is perfect for home use, especially for the top heavy AGA's. Much less chance of tipping the devices over. Also useful for my car, as I can now put the Mini in my car's console cup holder and not worry about it tipping over during a hard turn. This means I can now take the AGA's out-and-about with me as they can leak juice when not kept upright.

So here she is, all Tatroed out!
And next to my Bombshell
And being eaten by my Bombshell
Defiantly no buyers remorse, even if there was, it disappeared after the first vape.
Just waiting on my Hippo ring and drip tips from Atmistique and I'll be set. It is a fine piece of equipment. I didn't realize it was solid stainless steel, I don't know how I missed that, I don't know why I thought it had an aluminum body. Bonus!
I really though hard about getting the Tatroe base, but in the end I figured I was to lazy to put it on and take it off when I left the house and wanted to pocket carry......I guess I just rationalized getting a second Provari....

Only down side is, I think I have become an unwitting Provari salesman. I can't help it, I have to share the love. I'm trying to convert every vaper I know!
I've said it here before, but I never wanted to become a device "fanboy". However, since getting my first Mini, I have a want to convert everyone to the ProVari club here.
But I still realize that the device isn't for everybody and I have to keep telling myself that when offering advice to others. There are a lot of other good devices out there, and I own a few of them. They'd make a lot of vapers happy that aren't ready to spring for a ProV or really want VW. But it won't stop me from talking up the ProVari in general. I love both of mine and wish everyone had at least one to love too.
I think that "fanboy" has more to do with attitude than with being enthusiastic about your device. A fanboy to me is a "Nyah nyah, everything but MY device sucks and is useless, and you are useless too if you don't have one." Unfortunately, once you get a few of those types in the mix, even merely enthusiastic people start getting lumped in with them. Not fair, but true. Then again, some people get off on just being kneejerk anti-fanboy, and trashing any enthusiasm at all, as their own means of feeling superior. Those people are just as annoying as the fanboys are.
Rule of thumb in vaping, in politics, in sports, in religion (or lack thereof) in whatever: Just don't be a jerk. Most people can tolerate a pretty wide range of views, so long as you are not an a**hole about it.
Agreed guys, now I see the temptation that causes posters to say "just get a Provari" in every thread inquiring about what to get.
I've got to resist the temptation to become one of THOSE people.
