Both of my new ProVari's have black stealth top and bottom caps (and extention caps), both were obtained through VapeForce. One is the Stealth Mini V2.5, the other a one-of-a-kind factory prototype hybrid I'll share the details on when I do pictures of them eventually.
Protank/ProVari - OK or not?

I have the newest provai mini with the protank2 just got it. It fits flush and tightens all the way down. Air draw is similar to my protank mini's on kanger batteries. I have no complaints with the fit.
Mine have always been airy as well, but I have read too many posts lately by people who have had a problem with the draw being too tight to answer with Well it didn't happen to me, so it can't have happened to you. That kind of garbage runs rampant on the forum.
Inadvertently, I was one of the first 400 people in the US to get a Protank, so I have witnessed all of the issues that have come up - from the glue being messed up on the first run to the bases snapping off. Since the too tight of a draw issue is something recent, I have a strong feeling it has to do with the update of the bases more than the devices being used. As stated in the Sweet-Vapes product listing I linked to:
"2 versions to choose from:
Version 1 is the original base on all older V1 ProTanks. This has about 50% larger air holes.
Version 2 is the base that comes standard on all V2 ProTanks, and possibly newer V1 ProTanks. This has about 50% smaller air holes.
The only difference is the airholes, if you prefer a tighter draw, choose version 2. If you were happy with the airy draw on older protanks, choose version 1."
It's quite possible that on some devices the newer bases don't get enough airflow, it happens. I just discovered tonight that the new Aspire BDC Vivi has no airflow with the Bobo.
I don't have a fix for the draw being too tight, but I do have one for the draw being too airy, so I have no issues with the draw on mine. I still think the flavor is muted, but I only use the Protank for unflavored, so it doesn't matter.
Well thanks to ALL for replies.
Still unclear - even ProVape acknowledges that there's variance in the stems, and a PTank may well leave a gap.
I ordered an airflow thingy, which I wanted anyway. I'm still saving for the ProVari (black mini in my future).
And...dammit...just in case...I'm now shopping for my first cartotank too. lol.

Get some of the tatroe bases. I just got 3 of em for my protanks and it made a world of difference.
When I tightened the tank with the stock bottoms all the way down I got almost zero airflow. The tatroe bases are a bit tighter than the stock bases on my vamo but not bad. I can't use my protanks without the tatroe base on my provari unless I leave a gap and the new bases let you snug em all the way down.

Where do you get that? Do you have a link?
I just got one Tatroe tank and base in the classies.
They're like Solid Stainless ProTanks.
Tatroe tanks and bases, etc.

Ohhh...so its a replacement piece for a protank. I was hoping it was like a base I could just screw the whole tank onto..hmm :/
Right - but you can use just their BASE with a regular ProTank. A lot of folks say it's better all around than a ProTank, for airflow and strength (Protank bases used to actually break - leaving the 510 threads stuck in your mod).
I'm finding protanks really mute the flavour for some juices. For menthol based flavours they are great, but i also like a lot of sweet / dessert type vapes and i get nothing like the flavour in a protank (or any clearo) that i get from cartos. One of my favourites - toffee apple is virtually tasteless in my protank 2.
