To each his own - a lot of people like smaller mods and aren't concerned about battery life. I can take a 10440 mod to work and make it through the day on about 1 1/2 batteries and they are 350 mah.

And I fail to see how the kick has any effect in this whatsoever - if anything it means the timing on this is even better. A kick will shorten the battery life on existing mods an keep the size the same - and the shortest mod you can use with one will need to be able to fit a 18490/18500 length battery and will use an 18350. Most people will be using it on 18650 size devices, which means a regulated VV using an 18350 battery will be in a totally separate class as far as size is concerned...

New class of Mod, well sort of I guess. Same diameter and .65 inches shorter?? Doesnt seem that much smaller...

And yes there are 18500/18490 mods out their that will accept a Kick with a 18350 IMR battery. and they mesaure 3.5 x .78 inches... vs. a Mini Provari 3.48 x .90....

Im not here to bash Provape, infact I bought a Provape1 when they were first released 2 years ago... I love my Provape, I was just pointing out that the Mini Provari isnt that much smaller than the Provari... For just an extra .65 of an inch you can get a bigger battery, with the option to use a 18650 with an extended cap......... But if you think its cool, then by all means order one... I do like the new grip look it has....

Yes, I do think so - when you're talking something that's only 4.1 inches to begin with, that's almost 20% shorter. That's a noticeable difference. If you need a little more battery life get the extension cap and it's still smaller than the stock provari.

Read my post again, I did mention using a 18350 with the kick - again you're going to end up with an 18490 sized mod anyway.

We get it, you're not getting one. Why does everyone always think their needs/wants are the only "correct" ones out there?

I have taken my 18650 provari to work for the past 2 days with 1.25 ohm dual coil (probably the quickest way to run a battery down) and the battery is still at 3.8 volts. Meanwhile, it's heavier, unwieldy to use while driving (too long to fit where I want it to rest when not in use), and is a little too long for my pocket to be comfortable.

Just so I dont have to change a battery at night? Which takes 5 seconds. The trade off isn't worth it for me - I could easily use a mini provari throughout the day, and have a smaller lighter, quality VV mod. Why wouldn't I want this?
 
Fantastic ProVape! Exceeded all of my expectations! Just when I thought damn provari isn't going to get any better after I buy my V2, but now A MINI ONE?! Frickin AWESOME!!!! Which battery is the bigger one? And How much Mah does it have/ how much hours do you think it lasts. Just amazing!!! Seriously I want this with the blue LED so Frickin bad!!! Haha AHHHHHH!!!!

I can't see the cost of a Mini being much different than the Standard. Same amount of work, same electronics and it looks like more work went into the body which probably offset the cost difference in the material, which is not that much.....15mm of Stainless. I think is priced right.

This is exactly the case. They actually take longer to make on the machines than the original, costing more, because of the design work, and the small amount of material saved doesn't really add up to much, but its a really nice form factor and run time is excellent with the 700mah :)

Really a Provari mini? . With the 18350 IMR 700mah, battery life has got to be short. And with the extension cap it will about the same size as the Provari...And at the same price, seems like a waste of time to me. With the Kick out now it might be to late for a Provari mini..... To each his own I guess....

And yes I am a longtime Provape fan,, been there since the begining of the Provape1.....

The 700mah is actually pretty darn impressive with its run times. I get almost a full day on one battery at 5 volts :)

I have a self made Mini Provari. I run it on an 18350. I think most people will be surprised at the battery life they get. I run 3.0 Boge at 5 volts and it rocks. I never carried a Provari out of the house because of the size....But now it's my all day mod. I carry an extra battery but never really have to use it. I change it when I get home and I'm good for the night.

I want one just cuz i like the design and its new ! It may be too short though . The Provari is already short imo and the weight on the reg provari is perfect for me . I still want the mini though. Is the mini going to come in chrome with blue display ? I can suffer the smaller batts for the cool new design. The kick doesnt really compare to the provari to me . It puts out around the same power but the kick is gonna be a pain in the .... to adjust the wattage. You gotta keep taking your mod apart to change wattage internally . That will get annoying. Yes you can set it and it stays the same no matter what ohm you use but you cant adjust for different juices like you can on the provari. I dont really consider it being variable voltage or variable wattage if i gotta disassemble the damn mod to adjust. Its should be called changeable wattage rather then variable wattage
