Yes I would! And you would have deserved one.Bronze would have given me a pat on the head
Thank you!

Bronze gives pat's on the head? Whodda' thunk it? Huh? Who??
No lambs are basted, nor any other animals harmed, in the making of a Provari.

- Damn, I knew I was forgetting to tell you all something. In every Provari, we put some bacon taco shell crumbs. That's the secret to those buttery smooth threads and its the main ingredient in the lube.

Bacon isn't an animal. It's magic.
Jackie is sleeping or I would ask her directly so forgive me if I get this all wrong. She has a Kayfun V4. Before getting our P3's she used it on her ProVari Mini. The decision to get a P3 was she expressed a desire to use her K4 with a P3. Early Christmas present and of course I needed one for myself to get to know so I could advise her on the use of hers...
Anyway, it connected perfectly to her V2 Mini with no problem whatsoever. With the P3, she had to adjust the center pin on the K4 as it was not making a connection. Last week I had the brilliant idea of using up my prepunched tank cartos by using a carto tank on my P3. I had to, "pull the post" on the carto as it did not make a connection. Aside from the nuances of carto tanks, it worked fine after that (well, the connection did.)
She's using the 510 connector, btw.
Thanks for the info, but with mine the 510 pin on the KFL+ was definitely in contact with the 510 pin on the P3, and it still wouldn't work. Also the 510 pin on my P3 seemed to be in the same position it always was, and the o-ring didn't seem out of place either (ProVape did have me try and fix it myself by repositioning the o-ring). Not to mention I had been using this particular KFL+ on the P3 for around 6-7 months with 0 issues, and then out of the blue it just started not connecting (by that I mean the P3 was acting like it wasn't connected, even though the 510 pins seemed to actually be in contact with one another
I just hope ProVape can figure it out and get it fixed
It sounds like you're thinking of something ProVape mentioned to me when I first e-mailed them, they suggested it might be the o-ring getting compressed so much (when I tightened the atty all the way down) that it would get pushed up above the 510 pin, essentially preventing any connection. So I did try to reposition the o-ring on my own, but it seemed to be in the same position it always was (after that they gave me the go ahead to ship it in).
I vaguely recall reading about that somewhere, but unfortunately I don't think that would've helped me fix it, as the 510 pin and the red o-ring on my P3 both seemed to be in the same position they'd always been in.
Anyways, thanks for trying to help everyone! I will post once they let me know what the problem was.
Oh! I just discovered VapeCon West is this weekend. I missed the one last year. It's funny, but I used to dream of being able to go to a vape meet; now, not so much. We have a high-end vape shop in town, but I rarely go in there. There is so much vapor you can't see your hand in front of your face. Despite the chants of "it's not smoke!" it's not oxygen either and I get lightheaded. I have a feeling vape meets aren't that different.
My Ms. Lot, the major vape meets are like brick & mortars on steroids. Bring a mask. And a fan.
My last large event was ECC. We were evacuated when the vapor set off the smoke alarms.
It's a BIT vapey at these meets.

Regarding Efest batteries... Yes, they've been tested and proven to be nowhere near the specs they claim. However, at the power levels typically used in a ProVari, they're perfectly safe. I would never use one in a mechanical mod though. With that said, I would NOT recommend using the Efest 18350 at 20W on a P3. With the 3V cutoff, and assuming a 96% device efficiency, 20W would be pulling 7A from the Efest 18350 (as found on ProVape's website). That particular cell is stamped "10.5A", which is supposed to be a peak value, like most cells are rated. I personally wouldn't use it at more than 50% of that rating, which would limit you to around 15W on the P3 - more than enough for most of you, I know.
I completely agree...would only do this with a new version AW 18350. But if you were to try and do it with the Efest, wouldn't the P3 6.5 amp limit kick in before you hit 20W/7A?
The amp limit is for the atomizer. When ProVape decreased the minimum atomizer resistance to 0.5 ohms, they needed to increase the amp limit to 6.5A in order to achieve 20W at that load. Actually, it would be capable of delivering 21W before hitting the amp limit, but they built-in a 20W wattage limit too. The resistance of the atomizer has absolutely nothing to do with the current drain from the battery in a regulated mod - the wattage does.
I've got the futons, Willy. I think I can cover pretty much everyone in the thread, but I don't think I have enough to hold all your Provi's.
That would be BAD.
Truth, Ms. Kitty. You ALWAYS speak it.
What about goats?

Do you know something about vapey meets, Kat?
I dragged Charlie to the Tampa Convention Center for this year's Vape Convention. I felt like a duck out of water, that's for sure. While it was interesting and often times hard to see inches ahead of you, I didn't buy anything and don't think I'll need to go again. It was mainly out of curiosity. It's definitely geared to cloud chasers.
Almost four years vaping and I've yet to either (a) step into a B&M shop, or (b) attend a vape meet.
I catch grief for both, which bothers me exactly ________ (MadLibs it if you wish).

Thank you!
I would give you a kiss, but that might get me sent to the Gulag.
I can feel the shells in the TI threads.
