So now I'm definitely back on the fence, about to fall off. My thought process in this moment is that maybe I need to work on finding good tanks/drippers/ etc and get a good satisfying flavor, find the "one" before I spend the money on a Provari. Because no matter the device, if my delivery system isn't up to par a Provari isn't going to change that...right?!

It starts with your device. You don't need an assortment of tanks & drippers.

Honestly you can take any of your existing toppers, put them on a ProVari, vape & relax.

All of my juices, circa before ProVari tasted meh... Afterwards those same juices became WOW!

Everybody's vape journey is different..


I'm mainly using inexpensive iClear 16's & iClear 30's on my ProVari these days.. Why? Because I have a bunch of perfectly good ones, they work well, are reliable little work-horses, and give good to excellent flavor. They both have their pros & cons, but will continue to use them a while yet to get my money's worth.. what I have left will start dying off one by one... Eventually I'm thinking of going the IBTanked route, but still exploring options...


In the meantime, I'm not much concerned about the ProVari causing me issues.. provides me with a good, consistent, reliable vape in a sturdy, rugged, quality device.. I feel a lot more comfortable not having to think/worry about it (like my slowly-deteriorating Chinese-made back-up PV still does)... The ProVari is just on auto-pilot, sort of like how analogs were for me

Because after a while at times it's like, okay, I just want to vape mindlessly & effortlessly, and get on with my life..

Until the next new vape thing comes along, anyway... :D

The perfect delivery system is the most sought after unicorn there is.

This is why I saved it for last..

Excellent juice brand first, excellent PV second.. and finally the topper world -- probably the most complex & time-consuming component out there.. There's a lot more to it than many people realize.. I also believe it's probably overall the most undeveloped of the three at this time in the vaping world...

In 10 years what we have now will look so crude and inefficient.
And who would of thought it would be so difficult to vaporize an eliquid on a heated coil??

I doubt it will even take that long for the whole thing to change completely.

Remember, vaping only really began around 2006 and it's only been within the last year or so that it rapidly changed to the more efficient devices and toppers.

I DO agree that one needs an excellent juice AT FIRST, but later down the line it becomes device first, topper second, and then juice.

As we vape our tastes become accustomed to the "taste" of vaping and it changes.

The way I look(ed) at it, this is the stuff that's going into my mouth, over my tastebuds, down my throat, into my lungs and then out my mouth & nose

I wanted to make sure I got that part right 1st, no matter how efficiently or reliably or effortlessly it was getting into my body

The wrong juice can easily drive an aspiring vaper back to smoking...

After only 4 months I was able to understand that plain juice is far better than yucky tasting juice and still performed the job. That's probably why it's not as high on my priority scale, although I never would have stopped smoking without finding the cinnamon juice that made me a believer.

I don't much care for the cinnamon now, at least not for all the time.

I go through phases with juice. I have a couple go-to's, but I'll go a couple weeks of all melon flaves, get sick of 'em, go a couple weeks on bakery types, get sick of 'em, go a couple weeks on fruity stuff, get sick of 'em, go back to melons, etc. etc. etc.
Admit it, you just have a thing for "melons."
