Official ProVari 3 Thread - P3

[The Ocelot]

I just finished watching The Conversation. My rainy day movie theme continues and, oddly, almost seems to fit in with the current posts.

BTW, anyone figured out if you can edit the Puff Counter? I messed up (not that it's important anyway), but the number of smokes missed does scroll up fast and I wound up putting in way too many.

@Vape360, can you reset the puff counter and if so, how?

If you go to puff count and hold the button down it will keep going up and eventually come back around and you can get it to where you want

It only takes about 1 minute holding the button to roll it over.

Thanks Provape. I'll reset the counter. But how do I determine how many puffs are in a cigarette? Do I just pick a number I think I would have used? For example, since quitting smoking, I've not smoke 21,000 stinky's. Would I use about 10 puffs/smoke, and set it at 210,000?

EDIT: Unless I'm just not getting this (quite possible with my pea-sized brain), it would be easier to change the number of cigarettes not smoked, than changing the puff counter. I know when I quite smoking. I know how many smokes I smoked in a day. But I can't seem to change that number. I can only up the puff counter. Am I not getting it?

I did the same thing and gave up. The numbers start off slow then wow it flys by what I wanted.

I guess we should be happy we're firing on any cylinders, huh?

Last check I went from 8 cylinders to 5. Lots of misfires.

I have just one Erlkonigin, and I love it. Taste is awesome! Wicking is a bit fussier than the KFL, but once you know how it needs to be done, you're set. Just like everything else, I suppose. .

Ping is done. Please do not mention other atty's. Thank you LB. Golf yes...

I just refilled my KFL+ with the top fill on the new top I bought for it. Boy was it ever easy and I didn't have to take it off my P3, turn it upside down and take out that teeny tiny screw, which I've dropped on the kitchen floor more than once. Those little suckers can sure roll into places one doesn't want them to. Like under the stove or under the refrigerator. This is so much simpler, that's for sure!

I still don't understand why changing the top on my KFL+ produces so much more vapor. It really is amazing!

Will you take a polygraph on it having more vapor??

Al Pacino's performance is amazing. It was his breakout film and got him the role in the Godfather.

When I first think of Pacino I go back to Sea of Love and Dog Day Afternoon.

Adding cigarettes would have worked so much better, then let the puff counter take over.

Ping. Yes and I'd pass it too! Yes I would

See......sometimes my pea-sized brain actually works and makes sense!

Yes, but LB isn't done - with attys, anyway. She is confident that you can ignore her atty-related comments. Golf may be another thing altogether. Given her play last night, she should be done!

Shall I dare ask what your score was?

The "flash when dead" is extremely pointless. Press button, no vapor, oh, red blinking light is on - must be out of battery power. Duh.

The dead battery flash is actually useful. If it just goes dead with no flash, one might wonder if their atty is making connection. Some attys are touchy. The flash confirms it is your battery.

I wouldn't go that far. I've worked in professsional QC, and can see a single bad pixel in Ultra HD at video/film speeds. So that's 3840x2160x23.976 = 198,866,534.4 pixels/second. Think you can see what I see? I would never claim to be as good as someone else in their life-long profession. This is my profession, and yes, I could see it in yours too, assuming there were no hardware changes between the beta units and production units. That being the case, I ***GUARANTEE*** yours is doing it too - it's just that I have very trained eyes due to my profession.

I used to do color matching for a living way back when. I'd compare a current production run to a standard. After you do it for a couple years you see things that 99.9999% of the rest of the population cannot see. I'd look at it and say, "It's got too much red in it". Anyone else would say, "Huh"?

14 years ago I told myself I should be done with golf too. It was probably the 1,000th time I said that. I finally listened 14 years ago.

You'll get her to fess up to her age before her golf score.

You are missing out on 3-5 hours of aggravation.

I totally get this. It's not ego or bragging - it's simply a fact that when you narrow your focus to one 'thing' for a long period of time, you get very, very good at it. I drove truck long-haul for 20+ years, and I can predict someone turning (or other changes) long before a passenger in my car can - simply due to all my years watching traffic.

Thanks. At least two people, publicly anyway, get it. I agree 100% to the 99.9999%

Sigh.......You TOTALLY missed my point. You may be able to leap over tall buildings. You may be more powerful than a locomotive and faster than a speeding bullet. I never for a moment doubted you see an issue with the OLED screen on your P3 with version 38. My issue is you categorically stated it's a software bug with version 38. It may or may not be.

Perhaps it would have been better if you had just asked if anyone else sees what you see. So, I'll throw that out. Does anyone else with version 38 on their P3 see what John is seeing on his?

What am I looking for? I have always had the brightness set at 2.

The average is 15, so I would set it to 315,000. You can only increase the puff count then it figures out everything else. Once you get the puff count wrapped around and set to 315k, then you won't have to make any changes, it will keep track.
