Hands were shaking, heart was pounding and palms were sweating but I was unable to stop myself once I had added it to my cart. I may get divorced in the morning so I hope me and my new Provari will be happy together. How long will an 18650 last a heavy vapor on a 3ohm SC in a 6ml tank? I don't know how many batteries I need to designate to it for a hard days vaping. Hurry up and reply so I can order my batteries before my husband wakes up and takes away my debit card and puts me on time out.

I'd think you could get most of the way, if not all the way, through a 6ml tank with the 18650 and 3 ohm carto. I can get 2.5-3mls on an 18350 which has much less capacity than a 18650. Hope you enjoy your new purchase! I remember the rush from ordering mine, I stayed up late to get the very first batch of the minis (with blue LED).

I use the AW IMR 2000 ohm 18650 batteries on my Provari and I use Boge 3.0 ohm cartos at 4.8 to 5.0 volts in my tank. All my juices are 50/50 PG/VG and I go through about 5 to 6 ml's per day, so I consider myself a moderate to heavy vaper. I vape all day long everywhere I go (I'm retired) and I always get more than a full day with each 18650. That comes out to about 16 hours per day (allowing 8 hours for sleep) and I get about 18 hours before the "low battery" light starts flashing. But even then, I can still get 2 to 3 hours more vaping time before the battery stops working completely at about 3.3 volts.

You are going to love that Provari! I use Joye SR 510 atomizers @ 2.2 ohms seting my Provari to 4.7 volts(just over 10 watts).
I have never killed a 18650 battery.. I put a fresh one in every morning and vape until the next morning.....

It's better to recharge before cutoff than stress the batteries from exhaustion and full recharge. You are doing your charging in the best fashion. Li-ion and IMR batteries don't like to be stress-cycled.

I have the aw 1600 mah batts. Think I can get a full day out of them? I always charge my batts at 7 pm and babysit them till done. I have never had any change in how they perform doing it once a day like that but the Provari is gonna eat it up faster right? I will change them as soon as I get the slow blink so I am wondering if I may use more than 1 in a day so I would want to have 3 in total.
