Finally, 3.5 hrs later. Ive got two fully charged 18650's. I'm like full on making out with my Provari right now. hahaha

I decided to first try the same Smok Pyrex DCT that I've been vaping all day first so I can have a clear comparison. My current ADV is still Banana from Tasty Vapor, and my one issue has been that it lacks TH. Apparently what I was experiencing was a lack of Hz on my eGo, because now the TH is perfect.

I frikken love the Tatroe foot. I can set her off to the side without even looking and be confident that it will hold itself perfectly upright.:thumbs:

The green LED is like HD crystal sharp. Top notch quality.

I have a little disappointment with Zen.... I haven't tried it yet, but I want to say for $140 the thing should have came with a drip tip. And in his video on Provape he talked about 6 extra wicks of each size..... Well now I guess they changed that to one single extra wick.

And lastly, I went so nuts with ordering devices, tanks, tip, and hardware, I slacked on my juice order. I'm a little bored with my first 6 juices.... My MBV order (6 new flavors) will show up on Monday along with my Satin V2.0 ProVari.

I will play with the ZAP soon, but I like to take my time and spread out the fun for a bit to make it last.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!

I was just replying in a roonie's thread about LED color choice.
IMO) It's VERY different than what I'm used to seeing on other devices.
You nailed it perfectly; HD crystal sharp.

Oh...they maybe should post something on Provape website about charge time.
I hope slow charge time is "safer" than rapid charge (pretty sure) alas, Patience=worth the wait.
I learned abother tip from the ECF library http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ecf-library/129569-rechargeable-batteries.html
I read to let the batts cool down before use.! I didt know its not recommended to go straight from charger to Pv.
(which I'd done many times before).
ALl the best with your BEAUTIFUL new gear.

Tips? Did you remember the tips, or does the Z Atty come with?
Lots of, no, LOADS of choices out there.
i like Drip Tips - Phiniac Rugged Pyrex Glass Tanks and also
https://rtdvapor.com/online-store/drip-tips
as 2 places that will ship out quick and give you some choices.

Comes with no tips. ZERO. Meh

I have a variety of derlin and aluminum tips I've already accumulated, but putting one of those on such a lovely precision calibrated and crafted piece of Stainless Steel feels like a sin.

But trust me, I've got plenty vapemail on the way. I ordered a stunning orange/black blown glass drip from Etsy..... I know, Etsy seller's take their sweet time. I love many of the options from Atmistique and all of the Loki tips.

I am currently rocking the Prive Special with my ProTank tip. I must say that the Prive fits the Provari more seamlessly than the ZAP. it's apple and oranges (RBA's and Cartos), but it's the little details that win my loyalty.

I am very sorry for your and your wife's loss. So sad. I'm glad that the vaping community is helping you some. Hugs!!

Well why not.... But first let me explain why I have spent money like it was close to it's expiration date.

I am an addict, a recovering one, through and through. I'm not gonna lie, at 5 weeks, I'm still having occasional fits of analog cravings. I HAVE NOT given in, but that is partially why I have to keep my interest up by buying exciting upgrades. It keeps me targeted on my vaping future. Also, I don't have some never-ending supply of money. But my wife and I just lost her pregnancy at 3 months (miscarriage) and I tend to shop compulsively to cope with pain. And pain doesn't even describe what we're going through.

So there you have it, a brief summation of why I have removed the child-proof lock on my bank account ATM.

The Cingulum Compleo came out to ~$100, but multiply that by 2 because I bought both the polished SS AND the brushed brass.

The week's total surpasses $1k. @ 2 Provaris, ZAP, multiple tanks, and LOTs of beautification accessories. So far, no regrets.

I vape thin juices, so I prefer laser punched. I could never get holes that tiny on my own.

ETA: I use flanged mostly, but this might be a good deal. Boge 510 SR Stainless (Laser Punched - 2 hole) - (1 box)

The shipping is free if the order is over $10.00, otherwise it's $1.59.
BTW :2c: if you havent gotten your carto punch yet, try remember a filler tool also. There's the "Slapyamoma" that pbusardo
talks about/reviews. I've been fine with the Phiniac tools, I like the "angle" on the fill tool for juice fills (even o carto tanks with top fill holes)
Punch? Lots of choices again the Phiniac is like KirFs w/out the opp. "peep hole".
I vape various juices from sweet rasberry/blueberry/Choco/vanilla/etc to some very thick/dark mochaccino/tiramisu/cafe au lait.
because my tastes are so diff. thick (all VG) to thin (50/50 PG/VG) I really like to tap my ownBoges. I also switch from LR to SR.
Mostly i use one tap fr PG/VG; 2 for all VG and thick juice. i keep some prepuched around, have tried from 1.5Ohm to 3.0Ohm.
If you go with the KirF Cartotanks- Try a single self tap on your berry juices, see if that works best for you. compare to the prepunch.
Cheers!
[Currently: PV 2.5 reg. w/18490 batt; small pyrex (2.5cc)Green Tank/Titanium caps w/Boge 3Ohm self tapped single hole; jade tip;& Mochaccino Organic Premium dark .]

Are you talking to me or the OP? I have no plans to punch my own cartos, and if you want to see a "Slap Yo' Mama" in action, click on the link in my signature where is says "swap it like an ocelot."

It's Tasty Vapor Banana Cream Pie. It may be the lighting or the frosted pmma tank affecting the color, because its a mild pink for the most part.

I saw PB's review on K Fanis' punch. That's the one I want but they are out of stock. I have an average one in vape male limbo.

I drilled the 2.0 cart that came with the Prive myself with a 1/16 bit. It works fine, but it's tricky not to damage the internals that way. I was careful, but it's not something I want to do often.

I'll try your suggestions with holes an resistances. I have a whole assortment of cartos coming so ill be able to dial in what works for me and my different juices..... Most are 50/50 pg/vg.

Loads of fun ahead for you! BRAVE!!! (taking a drill to the carto)..doesnt pbusardo show off a kind of "homedepot" plumbers tap?
I dont beleive there's any diff between the Kir & the One Im using (that I could tell) except that Kir drills in the "peep" hole ad then signs the punch. I wanted the Kir also, but at the time I wasnt willing to wait for restock or S&H&Customs from UK...I was getting on a plane.
His work is indesputable= good choices. :vapor: Doesnt ProVape only recommend the 3.0Ohm? b.t.w. the PVs dont like the real low 1.5s
Cheers!

Ooh, how foolish of me to have missed you in da corner :facepalm:

I'd love to be the Lady in White;)


I'm not in the pic, but I can be your knight in black leather Milady. ;) Perhaps ride-off on my fiery black steed, called XL1200S.... :2cool:


Iron breasted he
Bore them down into
Triumphs path
Enter victor
Squint eye and flash of tooth
Adamancy in smile a broad wind whence hear
Clapping of gods and thunder
Rage that climbed ever upward in some spite
To storybook conception
All forgot all powerful
All sin redeemed or so seems
Perish in no regard
The sleep the waking task so simple
No formulae to entrust to give brace
