"With the optional 18490 extended end cap the Mini will accept a single 18490 AW battery for longer run times."

Extension cap and 18490 would be solid. you could use the regular mini batterys while out, or use the extension at home. I dont have a provari ... Just bored :) Unless you must have the best ... The provari isnt needed though. Lavatubes are completely fine for those who dont need the Nike Air Jordans of ecigs lol good luck to you!!

I'd consider looking at the Vario (which doesn't come in a mini size, sorry) if you can hold out a little longer. It has a higher amperage, and a better design than the Provari (better airflow and allows for stardust clearomizers that screw into ego threads without an adapter). We'll know more in 3 weeks(ish) when it comes out:

I got the mini 2 batts and a charger. I also got a vivi nova, it's awesome. The 700mah battery lasted me 3 hours at work (5 to 6 minute vape every hour or so) then another 4 hours of chain vaping cause I was geekin out at the fact I'd turned into a steam turbine.

I'm giving it a real world test tomorrow...up for breakfast putting my battery on charge since I don't trust charging over night yet since its new...vaping the fresh one till it dies I'll check back tomorrow and let you know if you haven't pulled the trigger yet.

P.s this is the blue mini with nova

Depending on your charger you may need an adapter for 18350 batteries. I forgot when I got my Provari mini and Pila charger and didn't notice the adapters on the site. Had to wait a week to be able to recharge and use them. Luckily I had the extender cap and some 18500's

In a pinch you can use a stack of pennies as a spacer at the negative end of the battery to make the 18350 fit and charge.
