If you have this much trouble with a ProVari and nautilus, I don't think 100 watts and a rta would be a wise move, but that's just me..

maybe its the .... the chinese are selling and passing off as quality... as i said it worked perfectly then the flavor disappeared out of the blue and spit into my mouth lol..

I would recommend keeping the ProVari and getting an IBTanked carto tank, unless you want to cloud chase. For me, the flavor rivals that of a KayFun and they are relatively easy to use and can go through a lot of juice before replacing the carto.

im looking for 100% flavor, the vapor production doesnt matter at all to me

so this ibtanked carto tank is easy to use, reliable, and produces great flavor? if so ill look into it..

Yes, they are fantastic. A carto in a quality tank produces a rich, flavorful vape. And made in USA... A lot of ProVari users stopped buying attys when they got an IBTanked. I just primed and filled one and started vaping in under 1 minute...

thank you for wanting to help me! so i am trying to decide between the ipv2 and the sigelli 100w.

i really cannot thank you enough, i will be ordering the subtank and stuff tonight as soon as i make up my mind. are the 18650 batteries that i bought from provape for my provari good batteries?

The AW 18650 batteries from your provari are not going to work safely for you for sub ohming. Also, your provari will not fire the 0.5 ohm subtank coils. You will have to go with the 1.2 ohm coil for the subtank.

so you are 100% sure it is just as good of flavor as a rebuildable or any of them out there?

It can be very time consuming and costly to find the right setup to get off the stinkies. For me,the things that finally worked for me were and still are a provari and a kayfun clone. With the help of some youtube videos on rebuilding the kayfun. The provari/kayfun combo is a damn fantastic vape still to this day and it is a very basic setup.Jumping into sub ohming now would be a mistake. IMO

Try to keep things as simple as possible. The provari is an all around fantastic device even if some would disagree. The problem lies only with the tank you put on top of it. To go back to your original post,i personally think you should consider a kayfun light plus or russian 91% instead of a kayfun v4 clone. They have less internal parts, are more simplified and very low maintenance once you get the hang of it. They should be cheaper as well..
Your in the right place to get as much help as you need from the great people on here while you go through your journey to become smoke free.

There is also this. It is virtually the same as a kayfun lite plus. And yes, i own multiples of both..

the link didnt work

In stock, you'd have to get a 5 Pawns edition---

Vaperev Shop - Kayfun Lite

I would just try an IBTanked first, though...

Cartomizer Tanks

im going to watch some youtube videos and see the ease of setting one up. im afraid to blow another $10-20 on nautilus BVC coils because ive read thousands of people having the same problems..

are the IBTanked leaky/gurgley or anything at all?

The only problems I have had were when I left a tank in the car while at work when it was brutally cold outside and the e-liquid gelled; the ProVari wouldn't even fire it was so cold. When I took it inside and it got to room temperature, it had flooded. I normally use high PG liquids, though, but just got back into 50/50 Vaper's Knoll e-liquids and haven't had any issues. I use 2 hole Smok pre-punched cartos, 2 ohm and usually vape around 3.7-3.9 v.
