Cleaned it all again and showing 76 with the P3 connector now. I dont have any batteries in sizes other than 18650. I'll see how it holds up. I also have this on order from amazon. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000YD0O5Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 it was recommended on one of the provari threads here.

That's a much better reading. Some of the things you did made a huge improvement.

Sometimes twisting the spring tighter into the socket on the end cap can make a difference too.

You will get much better results by using the stronger spring.

A few quick thoughts on my P3 and maybe more!

- Thanks ProVape for a beefy end cap spring. I only run VCT5s and it works like a charm.

- Day two and IQ runs from 97 to I think the lowest I have seen it was 94. Bat life so far with a limited run time appears to be very good. Boost set to 3. Yum!

- Respectfully, I can't say I'm in love with the Menu system /lol but fortunately and thankfully anyone is ready to vape by simply selecting either the up arrow or down arrow A which fortunately and well thought out are the first options you see after 4 clicks. Even my Grandmother could learn this. /lol

- Fit and finish are just as I expected from my current collection of 2.5

Vape360 is working on Sunday! WOW! Kudos. Please take a break. The rest of us can keep things under control while you smell the Roses.

:)

We are always open to suggestions. If you have a thought on how the menu should be, feel free to email us a ticket with your functionality.

Fiddling with the spring brought it to 80. If this fixes the battery empty issue, i will be thrilled. Love the device otherwise. Thanks for the help!

It may be because I've grown used to working over the years with various sometimes cumbersome menu systems on many types of devices most of them not vape related, but after overcoming my impatience to just play with my new toy I actually took the time to read the docs and understand the P3 menu system. I think it's actually pretty good for a one button control device. It's not like I have to fiddle with it very much after initial setup.

IMO, I could not have built a better menu system for use with one button.

I would expect to see Battery Charge, Ohms, and IQ in RCL -> INFO; however, since that is already pretty crowded, and these items have to do with power and firing, I understand why they're in A up and A down

In A up and A down, the arrow changing to the reverse direction then back again adds considerable time to the selected value locking in. However, I'll pay that to have the option to correct an overshoot in adjustment.

All I have to say about the menu is, "Good job, ProVape!"

I would rather put up with a less-than-ideal menu than put up with more than one button. Single button is so much easier to find. Any multi-button mods you have to look/feel for the fire button. And since I spend far more time firing than I do fiddling with the menu, the single-button operation is far more important. :2c:

Sucks. I just had to open a ticket with provari. The battery issue is ongoing and constant. 5 different batteries and it happens very often. Additionally, the screen is not flush with the device. :(

I for one would like updates as your issue moves along. Would like to learn the outcome you get please?

Just think on the good side your new Provari P3 will be two days newer then mine.

Nice try. There is no good spin on the USPS getting my hopes up then crushing them with a lie. I'd rather be *using* my P3 today. If you 'really' felt for us, you'd not vape on your P3 today out of sympathy for us. :0
