Hello Everyone,

The internal wires on my Ego Twist just ripped and now I'm ready to buy the Provari mini from Provape. The cart is loaded, but I though I'd post here first to check that I have everything I need before finalizing the order. This will be delivered to Europe, so I'd like to order everything I'll need in one shot as it'll save on shipping fees.

This is copy pasted from my cart:

ProVari™ Mini V2.0 with Digital Display - Blue - Original Design
[Charger?:Yes, Add MultiCharger][510 Atomizer?:Yes, Add a 510 Atomizer][510 Cartomizers?:Yes, Add a 5 pack of 510 Cartomizers(3ohms)][18350 batteries?:Add Two 18350 AW IMR Batteries][18490 Batteries?:Add Two 18490 AW IMR Batteries][18490 Extension?:Yes, Add the 18490 Extension Cap - Blue][Display and LED Color?:Red Display and LED]

Do I need both battery types, and how many of each? Also, has anyone tried the ejuice from Provape? Maybe I should order some too since I'm paying shipping fees anyway. Any other accessories you can recommend to a noob buying their first Provari?

Thanks in advance for your help!

You don't necessarily need both battery types. One fits the standard cap, the other the extension cap. If you want to use it both ways you need both, otherwise no. You want at least two so one can charge while you're using the other. I personally prefer at least four, so you can charge two while using the other two and then rotate them. They last a long time that way, since any one battery is only getting charged every two or three days.

Richmond, Va...Right in Altria's back yard.
You can get the batteries and charger for much cheaper at RTDVapor.com ....if you order on the same day you will likely get the batteries and charger before the Provari.

As far as their e-juice goes I would skip them. Ive never heard anything good about them.Id look around for a vendor selling a nice sampler pack that will ship to Belgium.

the only thing I can think to add would be a tank (if you don't already have one) or get more cartos as these are more consumable than the batteries are (3 ohm cartos are going to rip through your batteries charge as you will need to vape at high voltage to get the right flavor - IMO)

By the way your link went to your shopping cart so I added provaris to be shipped to everyone who replied to you

JUST JOKING - it wouldn't load any screen at all

With regard to batteries, I have 4-350s, 2-490s, and 2-650s AW IMR batteries in rotation for my 2 Provari Minis. I use the 350s when out and about. I use the 490s when hiking and either at the archery or shooting range. I use the 650s at home.

With regard to an battery extension add-on device, I use Twins on one of my Provaris and am looking into the Tatroe for the other. The said both afford the use of all 3 noted batteries.

With regard to the charger, you might consider upgrading to the Pila unit. It is probably the best charger you can purchase for the money. Initially, I purchased my batteries from Provape. Now, I purchase batteries from RTD Vapor. RTD offers better pricing and an ECF discount, as well.

With regard to cartomizers, I highly suggest trying the Ikenvape cartos. They are the best out of all the cartos, which I have used.

With regard to carto tanks, take a look at OCD's tanks from IBTanked. For the money, they cannot be beat in the fit, quality, and finish department and they come standard with pyrez tubes. I have a few $70 to $80 tanks, which simply look fancy. However, they perform no better than my 7 IBTanked tanks.

Sounds like you are on the right track. I am getting a full day out of an 18500. I usually have to change it after my 14 hours at work when the light starts blinking, but with regular use, I am comfortable having 2 18500 batteries.

I would strongly recommend spending the $ to get the Pila charger. It will stop charging and indicate when it is done doing its thing. The batteries also seem to sit more securely in the charger than they do in the other chargers I have used.

I can't speak to the quality of the Provape juice. There are a bunch of vendors out there. Check this thread for a good idea of what people are digging: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-liquid-discussion/304212-top-5-vendors-e-liquid.html

I have really been enjoying the liquid from Highbrow Vapor and if you like cocktail flavors, Pink Spot is a good place to look. Their customer service is exceptional as well.

Good luck and enjoy your new Provari.

Of course you need both size batteries as you will want to order the matching extention cap... Get the V2.5 is much nicer as the logo is engraved...
