Happy Thursday!! This week is flying by.

Looking ahead - Friday will be a break from photos and a fun announcement about the contest that I think you will enjoy.

Tuesday - We will have the website launched and pre-orders start at 10am PST.

Photo Time!

Last photo is of the Ghost White. Made with real ghosts :shock:

We found out yesterday that one of our vendors is delayed on getting some of the parts made for this one. Maybe they are having a hard time finding ghosts?
The ghost white won't be ready for a few weeks. For the pre-order, we will have the black, red and blue available and then the white will join the family in the near future.

I see some comments about TC and the big question...Is ProVape ready for TC?

Temp Control/Temp Limiting or as some refer to it as 'temperature guessing', I see a lot of comments on both sides. Please don't do it or I really hope you have it.

What I can say at this time regarding TC is until it's been perfected we won't put it out. I've heard about a lot of negative experiences with TC and many have commented that they are tired of fiddling with it. Sometimes it works, other times it does not and everything in between.

It has not been perfected yet and until it has, we won't put our name on it just to say we have it.
Once we feel it's ready, accurate, hassle-free and a great experience, then it will be the right time.

Oh boy! Now the color choice dilemma really starts - black or ghost!? Decisions decisions....

I am interested!
I believe it was mentioned that it is a battery release. However, if you look at the Ghost White model, I believe I can make out a green battery at the end of the mod, not the middle. This is just my observation, nothing has been stated from my understanding.

Sony VTC5s are green :)

Would a TC mod work better if the mod had a tank built just for it? Maybe some kind of sensors, that goes from the chip to the tank.

That thought had crossed my mind actually. When you're designing a mod for temperature control/limiting, you have a sweet spot, and deviation from that sweet spot causes calculation error. That's why the TC heads for Aspire/Kanger/etc. that VaporShark sells have the Evolv logo, and are all 0.15 ohms. YiHi however recommends 0.065 ohms - less than half that of Evolv. I still use the Evolv heads on my SXmini M-class though. Other people are using mods with nickel curves, but using different wires (there are many, besides titanium), just setting the temperature much lower. The curve is WAY off by doing that, but you can still dial in a sweet spot. That's probably too much information... :p

Anyway, sure, it's possible ProVape are making their own tank, and their own heads, with resistances that fall in their sweet spot. Only time will tell.

That's a shame, I'm sure it's doable just financially unviable, made out of ti I guess it would end up costing a small fortune then. :(

Ok more realistic wish, stainless steel or carbon fibre body with titanium bottom, top and button plate.

I'd settle for just Titanium top and bottom.

Maybe, maybe... But we have to keep in mind, Ti is a ....* to work with.
We don't know how many parts the so called frame has. We don't know if the weight loss would be substantial enough to make one. We really don't know much abouth this anticipated device, do we.

Hmmm, three buttons. If they've gotten rid of the menus, I might actually get one.
Really?

I imagine for simple adjustments a menu will not be needed.

But, when you want to make some real changes, you'll need a menu.

Lol ... yup, already settled on buying one, and I don't even know what it does yet.

Oh well ... call it a backup to the backups ;)

I was soo happy with my 3rd P3.
I have a "plain" a Ti and a Ti Stealth..

I thought I would be good with this setup.

Now I _need_ the radius, my life is not complete if I don't get it..

Sigh.. vaping is hard ;-)

p.s. As I am a Ti guy, I sure hope there will be a Ti version.

Ti too.

Two.

To.

Tutu.

:blink:

I prefer Titanium ProVape vaporizers t... right along with ya. :thumbs:

Yes, really. My mods have three buttons and do everything I want and need them to do.

That's what innokin is doing....proprietary connector with an in line thermocouple.....to truly regulate via temp.
