So there I was, walked in with my ProVari in hand (because it's amazingly reliable and because it's a ProVari). I was there to buy juices and just browse the shelves as most people do, since I heard so many great things about their juices. But I'll get to that in a second. Anyways I'm looking and walking around and the lady who initially tried to help me before being whisked away by another shop keeper, came up to me and said "Oh nice battery holder but I think you should take a look at our mods". Then the 'provarinati' came into my head and said "Beat this woman with your all powerful ProVari!" As I clenched my fists I looked at her and kindly replied "Ma'am, I don't think you know EXACTLY what this is". Her face turned pale and the stupid look she had then faded. Now, knowing what I know now, I just popped the top off my Z-Atty Pro, pushed my fire button and showed them the "Last Man Standing" Coil. And watched as one of the guys immediately spotted the ProVari logo and the Zen~ stamp on the top cap and on the inside of my tank and he quickly pushed her off to the side and said "I see you're a builder and that's a mighty fine coil you got there, what's the Ohms on it?" And I told him what the Ohms were and how many wraps and strands I used to build it before finally asking to try some of his e-liquids.

The point of the story is - some folks just envy the beast mods. And some, just don't know what the !@#$ they're talking about - or have never seen it before. If you don't know what it is, don't pretend to know, ASK!

Other than that - their liquid selection was pretty good. They have a pretty wide selection of stuff, and for the most part I had a pretty fun albeit expensive trip. In which I got my wife to start vaping. She's not a smoker, so she picked up a bottle of 0 nicotine Strawberry - which tastes like - no joke - strawberries. They did have quite a few clone products in house, which for someone interested in that kind of thing - were priced fairly. Also noted they do have quite a bit of chargers, drip tips, tanks, coil heads, etc. Not really a place to go if you're needing mass quantities of stuff, but definitely a good range of liquids for sure. Overall a good experience. And I DID lower my nicotine levels with these new liquids so - wish me luck. I will however go there next time rocking my Semovar and Kayfun Lite+ to see maybe if that lady calls that a "battery holder" too. :laugh::vapor:

"and for the most part I had a pretty fun albeit expensive trip. In which I got my wife to start vaping. She's not a smoker," lol yeah stop wining about the costs, you started it. Wait until she starts complaining about the costs involved. You guys may be uber rich and this is meaningless to you, and if so more power to you. But why on earth anyone gets someone to start vaping who isn't trying to get off cigs baffles my mind. More power to you tho if that's your thing ;)

They are mixing the Provari kool aid kinda strong these days, yes? :D

Humility would have been a better angle to play here, OP. No need to clench fists when someone calls your battery holder a...... Battery holder.

/sarcasm

wait, it's a battery holder right? and a chip that regulates it? I have one coming in the mail tomorrow, and I just thought I bought a regulated battery holder for my vaping needs. I had no idea I bought into some kind of elite group. Sweet! Can't wait to go to my local vape shop and swing it around like a symbol of my manhood and the people there bow to my choice in a regulated battery holder. Glad I have it coming, god forbid I walked in there with my MVP2, a stupid regulated battery holder :(

I still plan on getting a Provari, hopefully this year yet.

First have get the final estimates on the new garage. I'm having it built to house my motorhome. I just hate when people call my motorhome an RV, I mean don't they know the difference. It's like when they call my BMW a car. I prefer they call it The Ultimate Driving Machine, after all a car is what those other people drive right.
