I have a hunch it will fit any 18650 charger.... i have a tf 138 and a Pila ... both work... they're longer and it's snug but they fit...

I have a quick question if someone would be sweet enough to give me some info...I'm dying to place my order but, I'm holding my trigger finger still lol....

I want to order the new 2500mah batts.. But I don't own a Pila charger.. I bought the other one that they offered for 24$ (high performance charger)... I also have a Tenergy multi charger- model TR-001...Will either or both of these work?...Thanks for any info guys (smile)

Ahhhh... Bout to pull the trigger on a new one myself. Chrome Provari, Pila charger, 2 short batteries and 2 Provari Power batteries.

You get by with only ONE battery? You should always get at least 2 to swap out.

I always buy at least 2 of everything (cept liquid = at least 6 of everything lol) Just couldnt make up my mind and had to try it out asap lol


ohhh that chrome one is nice looking so is that black!

Hehe yea... I was worried at first about the chrome finishes getting scratched up or peeling. But then I came up with a solution. Just wait till you see the case I have in store for it. Textured high strength carbon fiber, with velvet(or silk, not sure yet) liner inside(so the carbon fiber won't scratch the chrome). Custom made by yours truly.

I'm just hoping they come up with something like this in an 18500 model. I'd like to keep it shorter. For now though I will be getting the extension cap and Provari Power batteries for road trips.

 

[RazorNribbonz]

And where you going to store this gorgeous custom case?...Just curious :: Angelic smile

Seriously that sounds very nice...You have me looking around, I have velvet!.. just not sure what> Textured high strength carbon fiber is or what it would be for lol...What are you using as the box? Hand made?

And I agree, love the 18500 shorter version.. ahh but the allure of longer batt life can not be ignored

 

[Dalton63841]

I will show it off later when I actually have the thing. It won't be like a box. Imagine like a laptop hard shell. It will be made to fit the Provari snuggly. Carbon fiber is an EXTREMELY high strength, lightweight material. You can google to know more about it.

Batteries couldn't have come at a better time, 30hrs without power. Could be 10 more days before power is restored. Thanks again for getting to me so fast!

Wow... The only time I've been through anything like that is in 2009. 14 days without power. After an experience like that, I got a generator, and 2 universal power supplies.

Well, I can confirm the battery life is pretty amazing so far as it has lasted me over 1.5 days. Still have the warning lights indicators go off from time to time after the battery dips below 3.8. Taking the battery out trick still works so I suppose it's a minor annoyance.

well, 2nd time recharging the battery and fully charged came in at 4.2. however, the warning lights came on again at 3.8. good news is that by removing the battery, looks like it might have temporarily "reset" it as it still reads 3.8 and can still vape. i'll report back to see how long the battery will last me, so far, been about 1/2 day.

So far getting a little over 7 hours of vaping out of the new batts (or 8 1/2ml's of juice). With the imr's would only get 4 1/2 hours or so. Really loving the new batts.

shortly after starting to use these new batteries (2500), i'm starting to get low battery warning indicator at around 3.8. On my previous batteries (18490), the warning indicator typically used to start around 3.2-3.4, although today, it started blinking at 3.6. Anyone else with this issue?

I'm having the same issue. I changed to the new spring, popped in my new battery and started getting low batt warnings at 4.0 & 3.9 V's. I tried all three new batteries and the same for all. I couldn't even recharge them, because the PILA was reading them as fully charged! So, I thought, maybe it's the spring. So I changed the spring back to my old one and I'm getting the same problem. I don't even make it down to 3.6. I have noticed that if I take the battery out and immediately put it back in it seems to reset and then I'm okay again for maybe another tenth of a volt, but the provari will completely shut down around 3.7 V.

Anyone have an idea what the problem could be? I'm gonna go back to my AW IMR's tomorrow and see if the problem then continues. FWIW, I've never used anything but the 18650 size battery and previous to Thursday (when I changed the spring) the ProVari would start warning me at 3.5V.

Just checkin' back in for an update....

So I switched to the old 18650 AW IMR's w/new spring and early warnings continued (3.9 & 3.8) respectively. The problem also continues with the ProVari Power batts. While I can reset by removing the battery briefly, it's pretty annoying.

So unless anyone has some ideas what the problem could be, I guess I'll contact ProVape... I'm sure it'll work out, I just don't want to be without my favorite PV for any amount of time I guess I really do need a backup 8-o - hopefully they won't need it because it was stupid user error!

 

[ukeman]

I would defenitely contact them...
I just received a new unit... yep... love it... the LED letters are a little smaller than the first run (which did not have the early blinking issues) and the button clicks more definitively imo...
No early blinking issues.. that's 3 units that i've had all good.
I put an IMR AW 18650 in the new unit... it blinked at 3.1v !
If yours is a new unit or not, I would have it fixed. Without the new batts, the only minor complaint i'd have had was batt times...but i chain vape.

74 hours without power, 2 Provari's, new batteries (that I got to cycle a couple of times) = 3 batteries used in 74 hours. Awesome!

Just of out of curiosity... Are all contact points including the bottom threads clean? My ProVari started developing these symptoms a while back and the culprit was a lack of good conductivity. Since then I've been maintaining it regularly, treating it like an all-mechanical MOD, and the problem has disappeared permanently.

Good point- not a bad idea to clean the battery too with a bit of alchohol on a paper towel...

Thanks Vaporologist! I bet that's what it is... Now just to get home and try it out
