I tried a panaroma picture from my iPhone as I was cleaning and building a couple coils last night, here's a not so good picture I took in the kitchen!!

Nice! I would bet it is safe to say you like the provaris :). Where did you get those leather sleeves. I like the brown and the tan one kind of in the middle.

I do enjoy them! Those case are from For ProVari - Parish leather cases
They are nice but allow about a month for delivery!
Those two are a nubuc/suede leather. I also have a serenity sleeve, not pictured, that is also nice!! I also have a dark brown "croc" leather case from Parish that is not pictured! These two will be in classies soon as I am about to sell a few odd and end items!!
Thanks

I watched the silver crimp beads to hold the wire together. It's amazing how much jewelry stuff is used with e-cigs. I'm so surprised. Not that I'm going to be using silver crimp beads. I save those for jewelry making...

Very nice collection homie but I feel like I should also laud the beautiful counter tops. I'm doing a back splash here in the next week or two and counters are my next project after that. I dig your style.

I have both as well, along with the v1. I much prefer the Diver v1 to be honest. The Sophia provides a warmer vape, which I do not care for. (I prefer a cooler vape)
The flavor with the Sophia, IMHO is pretty consistent and is about the same as the Diver as well. I will be getting rid of my Sophia.

Don't list the Sophia on the classies till I get verified!!! LOLOLOL. I think that's why I love it so much. I prefer warm vapes

Using the crimp beads would not be my choice at all, at best a last choice. Way too easy to just twist them instead of fiddling with threading, positioning, crimping tiny wires through micro hole beads. The Zapper V2 will make it even easier/faster, and with the tidiest micro joint of them all.

Quick question for you provari pros. I'm interested in getting a zombie finish model. I was wondering if the finish is a hard slick enamel type, or a softer satin type. It's hard to tell from photos I've seen. Thanks for the help.

Wouldn't say that it's soft but it's definitely not slick. Cerocrete grips pretty well and is durable.

I am happy to say I might have some provari porn to share in the next week :). Ordered a titanium white standard out of the blem section and also got a tatroe top ring for it :). My kayfun in mini mode should compliment it well :)
You will not be disappointed!! :)

I bet they would be difficult, though with tiny crimp beads and using crimping pliers, it probably could be done but usually what happens is crimps rarely turn out perfect and if they off just a bit, there's no way they will fit through the hole. That's why I cover my crimp beads when I make jewelry. A Zapper V2 would be much easier for sure.

Agree, would hate to fiddle with trying to crimp ready wires.

Still waiting to find out how well the Zapper works thanks to the USPS. It got into Los Angeles on the 5th, but is still caught up in the USPS snafu there. As slow as Royal Mail from the UK normally is, they got it processed thru/out of country and all the way to LA in 49 hours, and after 3 full days USPS still hasn't even got it out of LA yet to make the last 270 miles here. It's not a customs hangup, this one is all on USPS. So it'll be next week sometime before I get it.

Left: ProVari v2.5 w.blue LED / GP SnP tank / Sophia w.Lips ext tip ByLeo / Atmistique Twins ext (Velvet Cloud Vapor, Caramel Swirl juice)
Right: ProVari v2.5 w.red LED / GP SnP tank / Sophia w.Long tube ByLeo (Vapor Chef, Honey Pearry juice)

Love these set ups! Curious, do you have any issues turning the juice flow of the Sophia in the SnP? I have the SnP red orings in and the first time I set it up, no problems. This time, the Sophia is very hard to open up. It's weird. I know byLeo is making a short body Sophia but I would think its gonna be super hard to turn w/out any of the stem sticking out!

And I was even trying to turn it w/the byLeo nail :confused:

"..SnP red orings..." (plural) is probably your problem if you are using two of them. Just use one of the SnP red's in the bottom groove of the top cap, leave the upper groove empty. That's what I do, and the Sophia in the SnP is the easiest to turn of all my other Sophia/tank combos... including in the little Slim Pro from By Leo. We've discussed it on the other forum many times, including lately - guess you missed it (must be another one of those "AJ" persona things). ;)

LMAO!!! AJ thing....remind me to smack u later ;)

Actually I meant SnP orings versus the byLeo ones. I do have one SnP red oring in, but I put it on the very top. It worked awesome the first time I did the set up. But now that I cleaned tank, changed juice, new cotton in Sophia, reloaded the tank, it's a bear to turn.

But I think I figured out why. I don't have a ProRing so I need to lift the SnP tank up slightly for airflow. Once I try to turn the Sophia, it's actually unscrewing off the the entire tank from the ProVari and doing nothing w/airflow control. So I have to push the tank down, then try turning. It's a little but of a PITA, but working better. Not as smooth as when I set it up the very first time, but better than it was yesterday morning.
