But the protank tasted terrible, and I mean awful. So I went to the volcano store and bought a cartomizer tank so now I have this:Attachments
I started a thread on here about what to get with the provari that I was going to order. I was quickly talked out of the protank route and talked into catomizers. But to sweaten the deal a awesome guy on this forum named Telly R said he would send me some cartos. So yesterday I went to the mail and found this:
I'm active duty army and he is retired. Those coins that you see on top of the box are something that higher ups give to soldiers when the do something right. So the significance was not lost on me. I am also led to believe that those cartos are hard to get a hold of too.
I got so much good advice from the people on this forum, and the cartos and coins were sent to me just because and free of charge. All i can do is say how cool the people here are and that I have every intention to pay it forward.

I'm still waiting on my loki ring and 22mm ibtanked tank to get here. At that point my little mini will be decked out in black. I'm struggling a lot with my flavors right now, but I was using a dripper before this. I havent wasted one of the good cartos yet as I wanted to work the kinks out with the freebie from the crappy volcano tank. I'm still trying to fine tune this process so that every hit I take doesnt taste like either burnt paper or burnt aluminum. But I'll get there and I'm sure I'll get all the help I need from the people in here.
How very cool! It's so much smaller than I imagined....I can hardly wait for the day I get my hands on one. 
I get the 7th group coin, but can't make out the black and white flash. 5th group? Although the 5th group flash is all black now.
Carto's and IBTanks were a good choice IMHO.... Carefull you dont bend the end of the carto tanks while in your pocket while doing stuff. Those screw ins can bend and separate and your juice will flow out if your not carefull. Rebuild the Protank with your own coils and cotton for a better taste and use it when you know you are going to beat it around some. It wont be the same taste as the carto, but will work in rough situations.
Grats on the black Mini and the incoming IBTanked. They'll both serve you well. I too salute your service to our country. 
Cartos are the way to go man. I am active duty myself so I just throw it in my little pocket inside my cargo pocket and press. Unless I wrestle around on the ground I dont foresee any issues. Getting into and out of cars is somewhat problematic but you can just adjust the provari a little and you wont have any issues.
I ordered the stealth provari from vaporforce.com and they set me up right. I am running the 22mm standard IBTanked carto tank and it is phenomenal. I have smok single coil laser hole cartos in it right now but I ordered some boge varieties as a trial. The smok carts have a flange on the bottom and it really helps the tank not slip down and leak. The boge dont have that and the F16 cartos I ordered are 45mm instead of 35mm so they wont fit on the IBTanked tank.
Also, check out the tanks that Big Daddy Vapor offer. Both them and IBTanked are pricey per tank but the risk if worth the reward. I have had ZERO leaks and ZERO issues with either tank on the provari. I got a DCT locking tank for the 45mm cartos and am vaping on that (like a 17 dollar tank) and am not having any issues either.
From one veteran to another; thanks for everything you do and continue to do.
PS I am a little jelly you got coined

Hahaha, This was and is the only issue I have ever had with ProVari, Some of the flavors I liked on my twist and other PV's tasted awful on the ProVari because it makes the flavor so much clearer and brought through awful undertones that existed in my juices... Not by any means the ProVari's fault, And same thing with old dirty heads from before I had my ProVari, Just put some clean heads in there and tossed out my nasty juices and all was good.
I used to have a serious collection of coins. It always seemed that I was in the right place at the right time to get one from a way high up. But then someone kicked in my front door back at Lewis and stole almost everything we owned, including my impressive collection. So now my collection is nothing special.
Yeah I've actually had that theory myself. Just couldn't imagine that someone would pay to do this stuff if it tasted so bad. That being said cigarettes taste like things I'm not allowed to say on here and we all still had our times.
I placed an order from my baker for 3 new flavors. Gonna try dripping them before I waste a carto. The volcano juice I've been vaping just isn't the same anymore so I'm in the tortured soul state now where I'm looking for the right juice for me.

Your hand really makes the mini look mini.
Yeah I didn't realize it until I posted that picture but it really does. That's exactly what I was looking for. I like being able to hide it in my hand. It's perfect for me. I do go through about a battery and a half each day but that's worth it for this thing to be so small.
I just carry around an old Oakley case that has batteries, juice and now a spare carto in it. My buddies call it my "smack pack"
