First off I would like to thank the vets for all the help and direction they have showed me in the past. I went from a mall brand to a kr808d to a bigher cigar looking type model to an evic to an eroll and finally to an ecab. I live my ecab but I am feeling like there has to be something better. After chsrging the batteries over and over it hits real weak. I am on bstteries 5 and 6 now. But I am thinking about stepping up to a more top tier device. I am not a huge fan of those bigger models such as the evic. I felt like for me the ecab was better. But I ordered 2 vivi nova tanks and since I sold my evic I dont think the ecab is powerful enough for them. So I was thinking about getting something with more power. I think the ecab maxes out at 3.7 volts. Not 100% sure on that. Just wondering what you coukd recommend me. Is the provari that much better than everything else. Money isnt a problem. Just got a huge check from a car accident and want to get myself something nice. But dont want to fork over a ton of cash for something that stinks. I do prefer the smaller ecigs but I know i wont find anything powerful that is that small. I vape johnsons creek e juice if that makes a difference. Is there a mini version of the provari or something similar? Just looking for some facts and opinions of some pros before I come to a decision. Keep in mind I am not a do it yourselfer. Anything that requires mechanical skill is out for me. Thanks for your time.

Of course a Provari is awesome but if you dont want to shell out the dough the SVD at fastech is worth your while I think this Video applies


you might also give the Joker at Vaperlife a look not so big and American made. They have some of the best customer support you will ever find!

The standard Provari and Mini Provari have the exact same inner electronics, they just take different size batteries and thus the two Provari's differ only in their length.

Wow. For some reason I thought they were a lot bigger. Where did you get that tank. That looks awesome. That is exactly what I want. I do have a question though. The mini takes a smaller battery so does that take away from performance at all or does that mean you just have to change out the batteries more frequently?

Just change more often because its regulated and built in protection for both the mod and you. The performance issue between a 18350 vs a 18650 only comes in to play in a mechanical mod and only then using sub ohm coils. You have a Amp draw limit on a regulated mod that will in most cases shut the mod off way before you reach any thing close to the amp limit draw on any given battery.
The short answer is no no change in performance.

Thanks so much. I am figuring on just going with the provari. I appreciate everyones responses but I feel if I got an innokin or a joker I would have wished I got the provari. I was on their website and do you know anything about the price difference on them. Like a silver one is 20 bucks cheaper and they have a starter kit but not for the mini. Since you have a provari could you let me know what to get when I am building my kit for the mini. And what you recommend using as far as cartomizers and tanks go. I have 2 vivi novas but I dont know if there are better tanks suited for a provari or if the vivi nova will work fine. Also can I use those ego c attys with it? I know it is 510 threaded, I just want to have the right tools to get the most out of it.

if your clearo has a ego threading or a skirt to fit ego threading get a 510 to ego adapter. 510toego.jpg If you want a carto tank check out youtube theres tons of videos. Brands Phiniac with ss caps are one of the best, IBT, but a smoke tech pyrex carto tank is a good place to start.
http://www.rtdvapor.com/online-store/battery-chargers/nitecore-intellicharger-i2-detail Here is a good solid charger
and RTD is a trusted battery supplier I recommend AWs

PS you might entertain the thought of an ext cap and a couple of 18490 bats as well as the 18350s The silver is unpainted so a little cheaper every thing else color led is just cosmetic it has nothing to do with performance. Just what you like and if you want to spend a couple of extra dollars
