I have to ask, Why so low?! You're in dangerous territory with the amount of strain that you're putting on the battery and the risk of a meltdown (explosion) are increased exponentially. Why would you want to go that low in ohms?

I wonder the same thing! Wonder if he missed the number in front of the decimal.

If he's using twisted 28 in a 3x4 wrap, then it is .4, nothing else. With all the safety issues with batteries, that's just asking for trouble territory!

Isn't that too low? Wouldn't that give off burnt taste?
I'm not happy with the outcome. GOnna do another.) GOtta make it perfect.

Works great! Not tasting burnt at all. But it's very important to have great wicking at low ohms, you have to make sure the coil isn't too tight around the wick. I did 5 wraps of 28awg A-1 around a 3mm screwdriver, and I'm using 2mm silica doubled over. vaping Pluid right now. :)

I've ordered another Provari. Mine worked great till about 4 pm. Then it started flaking out again. After I get the "Blem" PV, I will create a ticket and it will more than likely go back to Provape. I thought maybe the button was not making connection but with the battery out I can see it hitting no prob. I've also ordered a new battery, I don't think that is the problem though. I have two of the extended and two regular, none made a difference.

As I was trying to get the thing to work, a slight panic set in thinking about having to send it in again. So I bought another one, a blemished one. Red LED so I can tell them apart, after the one gets to working right. :facepalm:
I had a Provari Version 1 and when the new 1.8ohm Vivi Nova came out, the board couldn't take it and it went permanently whacko
they sent it back "repaired" and it still wasn't fixed and I sent it back a second time and they put a new board on it. So I'm in the club of users that have destroyed 1 Provari. I won't count the second time I sent it back.

I sold my pluid. Didn't have enough to tank it but now having the reo regret that move.
Quick question can the little bottles in the reo handle pluid?

Yeah, the bottles Reo use can handle Pluid, even Murdock himself said so, he use the same kind of bottles for Pluid samples. :)

MNKE batteries can handle that drain. I would hesitate using AW at .4 ohms but on paper they can do it. I wouldn't go near any other battery unless you want a hazard. MNKE 18650 are basically the only battery you can use to safely do ultra-low resistances like that.

Y'all better leave robin alone. I got you girl I got you

Well to be fair, she should be :

"Thread Killer and Provari Slayer, Mistress of distress, Ms Robin".

I actually considered this earlier but decided against it because I wanted to avoid the innuendo of her being anyone's mistress. I submit it now only a gender clarification, with no implication of impropriety for the noble (if clumsy) Robin. As for the rest, if she asks me to stop, I will do so without hesitation. I suspect she will not because she thinks the ribbing has been well-earned.

I Vape 100% VG and standardized on the Kanger T3.

The Innokin something or other 16 that came with my new Itaste MVP was also very good if you like something smaller.

Where in the hell have you been!!!

Have you ever tried magic fairy from good life vapor? It is similar to pluid, just as good , and you don't have to sell your first born child for a chance to buy some when it's in stock.

Sounds like I should be ordering some. Hardware is more important at the moment though.
