I think I lost my mind after placing my most major e-cig order just now lol. After much contemplating and temptation to purchase a Provari I finally decided to bite the bullet. I am psyched but also feel guilty spending so much of my hard earned money and feel the need to go into super savings mode to make up for the damage lol. My reasoning behind the purchase was I really love vaping, it truly was a lifesaver for me and I was tired of going from one sub-par product to the next wasting money on various devices and minor upgrades. I hear the Provari is THE vape to get in terms of quality, durability and consistency. I wanted to purchase something that is going to last me for a while especially having a few vapes fail on me. Here is a breakdown of some of the stuff I purchased.

Provape:

1* Silver Provari Mini V 2.5


iKenVape:

2* IKV 2.5 oHm 510 atomizers


RTD Vapor:

1* xtar charger
2* AW IMR 18350 batteries
3* 510 to 510 shorty adapter


Halo Cigs:

1* 30 ML Torque 56
1* 30 ML Belgian Cocoa
1* 30 ML Voodoo

Even though my pockets are hurting, I could not be more happy about my purchase. I guess I justify it by reminding myself how much health and money is eventually saved from vaping keeping me off smoking. Also it is something I very much enjoy. However, I have had my fair share of troubles in the past with device malfunctions coming in the worst of times and having no replacements. And spending money on various others in search of something that performs better. I just wanted something that lasts and won't let me down. After doing some extensive research, I found this is what suits my needs best. I have not been this excited for any other vape I've purchased. The other stuff was just a bonus to go with my new toy :)

Coolness! What's the 510 to 510 adaptor for?

I have never purchased one before, but to my understanding, and I could be wrong.. The 510 to 510 adapter I plan on using to protect the Provari's threading from stripping. I will screw it on and attach my atomizers on top of that. I found on some of my other devices, the threading seems to strip little by little over time from the constant screwing/unscrewing of atties. So I rather wear down the threading on my adapter than on my provari. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this adapter can be used for this purpose right?

It's a ProVari. You don't need to worry about things like that. :)

I've only owned mine for two months so far, but if you scroll down and look at the ProVari forums, I don't think I've ever seen one post about the connector threads stripping. I screw carto tanks on and off mine multiple times per day and the threads still feel like brand new. The build quality of the ProVari is head and shoulders above the cheap Chinese mods - I laugh every time I see the reference somebody made about them saying "We make cheap. You buy. It break, you buy another". :D

The adapter will be useful because some atomizers do not have an adjustable pos pin and will not fire on the provari.. The 510-510 adapter itself may not work on the provari, it has a flush 510 pin as well and if you adjust it then your back in the same predicament. The better adapter is the 510 ego that provape sells.. There is no worry if it strips threads send it back and in a few days its totally refreshed and like new again. Thats huge reason why purchase a provari... Plus its not purdy with that adapter lol..

Nice buy..

Btw your gonna love those 2.5 510 attys from I ken

Peer pressure for a reason...---->
You have to purchase an IGO-L its the big daddy of 510 atty's and will look amazing on your provari..

Oh yeah I love atomizers from iKenVape. It is the one and only place I will ever purchase a standard atomizer from. Have never tried the 2.5's before, only low resistance 1.5 oHm ones. Figured I step it up a notch since going to be using a variable voltage device. But overall, IKV makes the best atomizers in my opinion. I do have an IGO-L actually just waiting for a replacement from fasttech because the one I had got stripped threads. That happened from pulling the IGO-L cap off while it was attached to a mod. (never doing that again lol) it was sealed super tight with 2 o-rings. Also good to hear the threading on the Provari is much more durable.
