Looks like Next Payday is Going to be A Provari One

[tA71ana]

I ordered a mod from FT and got it and it works great but the connection is well...strange.
I don't feel good about using it (Luckily it wasn't spendy).
Eventually I may fix it..who knows.

What I do know is that I am tired of quality control problems-misfiring buttons mainly.
I have worn out a vamo and three Zmaxes in two + years.
I give up.

I'm getting a Provari Large.
At least if I wear out the button I can get the dang thing fixed.
What I want to know about is the passthrough setup.
I KNOW someone here has one, lol

Have your experiences been satisactory with it?
Part of me is skittish about throwing down that much cash but hopefully it is worth the money, lol

If you are saying you got it from FT, as in Fasttech, they don't sell Provari's there, they sell a provari clone there. This was discussed a few months ago, I had to search for the thread, if you are going to order one, order from here.

Just get a couple of 18650s, and the extended end cap. You can't possibly drain one of these before the last one recharges! That's just gotta be better than being tethered to what appears to be a laptop power supply. Heck, you can get SIX 18650's for what that Pass-Thru costs.

Good point...I never did like to be tethered to anything, lol

I'll do the set for 212.00.
Wish they had the Large with the teardrop design like the mini but heck...can't have everything, lol

Be sure to check out the clearance section also. They have some discounted now...they call them blems but both of mine were and I never could find what was wrong with it.

She got crap from SlowTech & appeasing the vaping gods by making things right with a Provari. [/translate]

As for the passthru, I only know of one person who got one & they weren't very happy with it. Both the 490's & the 650's will give you plenty of life, even chain vaping on them. Get 3 batteries & you'll never have to worry about it. 2 will suffice, but that 3rd is always good to have in rotation & for those inevitable oh crap I forgot to charge my battery moments.

Cool you scared me.

Oh yeah!
Thanks for the reminder about the Blems...I totally forgot about those!
I have heard a lot of folks who got blems but couldn't see the blemish....

Yes I believe the Vaping Deities are pretty torqued with me, lol

Yeah..I followed the link and saw that clone...pffft
I'm looking for performance..I hit my PV literally all day long.
I need something that will hold up to the punishment of my pressing the button 1000 times a day

Well I bought my first one a full size satin silver over one year ago, it was 7-3-2013, to be exact, it still works as good as new. I work in construction, and it still has no scratches. If I am awake I am vapeing with it.

Impressive!
I checked out PBusardo's vid of his Provape tour and liked what I saw.
That pretty much sealed it for me.

Your gonna be Haaaaaaappy.

Very few people, I think, have gone for the passthru. And I know one that wasn't happy with it, something about the connection having an angle, or not having an angle...I dunno. But I agree with the others - it's probably more convenient to pack an extra battery, or get the extension cap and use an 18650. I personally like the SIZE of the 18490 setup - but I still only bring a backup battery for a very long day. A fresh battery gets me through a normal workday easy...

Now I think I will just get the body only with the extended cap.
I'll go to RTD and buy like, 5 AW IMR 2000mAh batts.
I wish AW made a 2250 or a 2900mAh

I would at least order 1 battery from provape, you don't want to be waiting for the batteries, after you get the provari.

If you add the Tatroe extension tube to a Mini (available at Provape) along with the extended end cap, it comes out the same size as the big Provari - and accepts 18650s. Same feel, same battery life, but with the Mini's engraving.

I put up a pic under the sticky "Provape user photos" with a big ProVari and a Tatroe tube equipped Mini side by side.

There are other options for doing this, but the Tatroe tube has worked well for me.

Ah, okeedokee
Perhaps 2 Tatroe tubes with the original bottom cap should work too?
Provape must be out of the tube...I did a search and what they have now is the stabilizing bottom end cap.
I did find the Tatroe Rings at Cigtechs.com, though

Two of these should work as well. I like the Provari extended end cap, as it's rounded edges are a little more comfortable to me, but others like the small end cap too. I've bought one each from Cigtechs and Provape - they're definitely the same part. Yeah, looks like they're sold out at Provape. Figures - they were a little cheaper.

 

[opsguy]

I hightly recommend the Provari. I recently got a Provari Mini blem. When I received it I looked at it with magnifying glass and could not find any issues. Well worth the money IMHO.
