I was going to order one maybe , then this happened
The old 'let's rip off the Canadians or not give cheap shipping as an option' move.
My ibtanked order that shipped the other day was 6$. Screw you Provape.
LOL... this sucks, sorry man.
How can you not for 6$ right ?? I wish there was a matching clear drip tip but I didn't see one. I'll grab one at some point.
Yikes on ship to Canada, that's nuts. Shipping in US was $2-something or I would have passed on it...
Don't have high hopes, except hoping I'm surprised and maybe ProVape developed a nifty ring idea - it IS odd that there seem to be air gaps BELOW the bottom of the ring - I don't get it. Will post pix when I get it!

There are some vendors like ibtanked that are awesome and offer the slow 6$ option, then there's the Provapes of the ecig world
sadly 6$ shipping is VERY rare to canada, but I know it exists so it's annoying when it's not offered.

OK, so the pic is ugly. ALL their pics are ugly.
Still, I've been saying for a long while that ProVape should make a ring - and they did. So I ordered one...
I hope it's not that ugly...it kinda looks satin, too, which would be weird - it should have the same finish as the CAP, not the same finish as a Satin ProVari. Well - it's $10 shipped, so we'll see!
Thanks for posting that Train2...I too ordered X2, but while I was at it I ordered the Satin ProV standard! I have been on the fence about it for a long, long time and put it off!
So soon I will add ProVari #5 to my collection....this will be the only one with a Red LED, but that is what I wanted, plan on topping it with the R91
In other news...
Ya ever have "one of those days" with new gear?
Just spent like an hour fighting with my new (used) SnP tank. It was in fantastic shape - in fact, I'm doubting if it ever got used, because HOLY COW was it hard to get a carto in. And then out, because that one wasn't primed right and burnt. And then a new one in, and then out because it was a dud and flooded. And then in with a 3rd, and FINALLY. That makes 2 of my tanks that are just SUPER tight... Maybe it'll loosen up a bit, or maybe I'll actually bother to change an o-ring.
But it's finally up and running, and looks awesome.
So - - new (for me) SnP tank and new (for me) Stubby Loki tip.

Looks great!! I have the same experience with the SnP--even after using several times, they are tight. The vape is awesome though!
That is not consistant with what MiniEcig told me last night. According to them the MicroSticks are out of stock worldwide... they have none (except for a couple with flaws and no engraving), non of their vendors have any, and the next run of new one's to be made has been rescheduled for in April sometime.
So if Vaperev thinks they will have them in stock again within 2 weeks, either they or the folks that make them are up in the night without a clue.
Just saying........
EDIT... I sent an email to Vaperev for clarification. Sounds like they "thought" they were going to get some within 2 weeks, but will not now because the production schedule has been changed. I'll let you know what they say if they reply back to me.

OK, I have been going back and forth with MiniECig... even with the communication breakdown the answer appears to be that Vaperev will not have any MicroSticks in 8-14 days, no more will be made at all until in April sometime plus shipping time to vendors after they are made... so it may be late April before any more MicroSticks will be available anywhere. The reason... MiniECig is going to be moving their operation to a building in a different location.
I just checked the site and got the same shipping quote Thats totally strange! the shipping for a Provari to Canada is 23 bucks and includes 100 dollars insurance Why would they charge more for a tiny ring only worth 8 bucks ? If anyone from Provape reads this maybe you can explain?

Thanks for the follow up. Sounds like you know more than Vaperev about the MicroStick production. 
Guess I'll be waiting longer. When moving to another location, seems like things usually take longer than quoted.

Vaperev just got back to me a little while ago too with the excuse that you misunderstood 8-14 days instead of 8-14 weeks "because they never quote anything in days". They did not confirm they were telling folks 8-14 weeks. So I read it as an excuse, especially since I had already got the answer from the MFG themselves and had told them so before they got back to me. All moot points... there will be no MicroSticks available anyplace until at least the end of April per the MFG.
You might be right about that. I was told a little more than a week to two weeks when I first asked. I then asked what would be the best way to be notified when they would be in stock. I was told to call back so I asked when I should start calling to minimize the phone calls because I was on hold 9 minutes before I got a live person. This is when I was told after 8 days. I did ask about the notification on their website and was told this was an option too but calling would be the best.
I definitely did not misunderstand "days" and "weeks". I know I repeated 8 days and Chris - the person I talked to said yes.

Any of you happen to be using the Atmistique Gemini on top of a Protank 2 and could provide me with a picture of that setup?
I figured, that since that drip tip is pretty much "made for ProVari", it would be okay to ask about it in here
Thanks in advance.

I THOUGHT I had a photo with that. And I did!
Just a warning - I've found that Gemini to be about the tightest fit of any of my tips - you really have to push!
I have it in black, too

Thank you so much, just what I was looking for
Although I love the "drops" design, I don't think I'm a fan of how it's sticking out, sadly
And yeah, I would think it was a tight fit, but the standard tips are just so wobbly and loose - tried wrapping kanthal and insulation tape under the o-ring, but no dice.
Oh well, that's a whole different story, I got what I wanted, thanks once again

Depending on your style preferences, THIS is one of my FAVORITE ProVari-themed drip tips.
I use it in lots of tanks, and have ordered another...
Even the "tall" isn't really tall... The short is really extra short...

They do look pretty sexy yeah, and smaller in the "base" as well - you wouldn't happen to know of a European reseller of those by any chance, would you?
