Exactly. The Provari is the best all round mod. It's simplicity is fabulous,It's safer than most and you get the same throat hit and vapor each and every time.I really like the fact that it gives an error code when something is not right. I just go to the Provape web site and look up the number.How simple is that?I find it amazing people are still fooling around with screwdrivers and kicks and all the booster stuff.I know some of the wood mods are nice because of their aesthetic design but I'm not looking for art. I want consistency ,throat hit and flavor.I found it in the Provari.
Is it the 15th yet?

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
 
I'm really in a jam. I love having long lasting batteries, 3 18650's. I'm afraid with all my chain vaping these smaller batteries won't last long enough, if I buy 4 batteries I'd be fine righ? I bought this mini pouch that's hooked to a keychain and 3 18650s could fit, so I'm thinking of going for it. Also I want to try and not use the extended batteries, if I'm going mini I'm going hardcore mini, you think 4 of those little batteries will hold up from 7am to 12 PM? How long do you think those little batteries last? And when they're charged completely are they going to start out at. 4.2V too?

First of all, it's going to depend how quickly you "chain vape" ... You can also search for the IMR 18350 Protected batteries with a higher mAh that may add a little more exposure time for you.

Then there's always a portable charger / USB and / or DC converter if you search. (No pass-throughs that I've seen as of yet).

5 Hours of run time on the mini really shouldn't be all that difficult to achieve with 4 batteries.... even for someone destined for the Chain Vaping Hall of Fame... IMO One may have a better chance of torching an atty or two - or - going through their mobile juice supply prior to baking 4 batteries .... then again... history can very well be made...

Lastly... stock performance starting voltage with the 18350 is 3.7v with a Peak Voltage @ 4.2v.

If anyone knows for sure....

Is there a legitimate shot for the P-Mini to meet up with an 18650 extension in the near future?

If so... approximate time frame?

Along that line... any idea when optional color schemes will be available?

Is the Satin Silver matted...or closer to Brushed Chrome?

I'm just trying to get a real visual on this unit... being as I have not yet held one or seen one up close in person.

My Birthday is coming up in a few weeks and I'm considering treating myself to one or two... P-Minis over the original P-Big Stick.

The P-Mini can be concealed much easier than the P-Big Stick and taken on short runs around town, or dining out, etc... while adding the mid / full extension with 18490 / 18650 while at home in the luxury of your own living room.

I may consider purchasing an additional P-Mini as a backup or fail safe if all goes well.

I've seen that the P-Mini will be available on March 15th but I didn't see a ship date or shipping length on the site.

Anyone in the know have a time frame on this?

Also additionally the V1 units making the jump to V2 (which I would imagine is incorporated into the P-Mini design) were any additional internal structural mods implemented into the V2's other than the voltage depth? (ie better seating of the circuit board internally, internal circuitry shielded better from impact and shock....?)

Any and all valid input is greatly appreciated.

I haven't seen an image that shows what it actually looks like in person. It always looks 'duller' than it actually is in pictures. Not brushed chrome...satin is really the best way to describe it. It's very difficult to give you any more accurate description.

I hear ya Frick.... but thanx for the attempt though...

I've seen a couple in preview videos that some beta testers put out on YT and some blogs, but most of the time the lighting in their videos suck... and it appears that clarity is not an option.

There was one that I saw was extremely shiny - Polished Chrome, but don't know if it was a custom kit job (like the gold plate kit).

I almost feel as though I'm attempting to purchase this product in braille. I'm a hands on guy, and I like to pick an item up and get a feel of it prior to purchasing it, but seems to be near impossible without being able to hit up the corner store and go check one out.

We'll soon see...

If you saw me, you will know at that exact moment I vape. The things always in my hand. I go through about 6 30mL bottles of MsTs Strawberry-bubble gum in maybe 3 weeks, with a tank, alot faster. I'm on 6 mg so no more crazy vivid dreams. I'm an ex-addict, never put a needle in my arm, never stole or robbed anyone, i was just a sponsored skateboarder at a young age, fell into drinking, skateboarding wasn't a big enough "rush" while 360 flipping 13 stairs, went and became apart of the sport of skydiving, winter season came, no skateboarding or skydiving to feed the rush and fell into Oxy contin, quit when I was 20, 21st birthday I was sober, and march 17th is my year anniversary, and for addicts, its a known fact that you get a sweet-toothe, and I've tried alot of different flavors and vendors but nothing matchs MsTs strawberry and strawberry bubblegum. It's getting to be way to expensive dishing out 200$ a month to her, I just want to find a cheaper vendor without that gross PG after taste and that way to potent taste of Too much VG, trying to find that right ratio-whatever juice is a topic I'm going to get into after I get done TOB with my new setup, but I do think that's why I vape so hard. my new p-mini set up is a little gift to myself for my first year of sobriety(age21)lmao. Should I just grab 4 of the 18350's, then maybe add the extension cap and 2 18490's for home? That seems good right? Won't burn out my batteries... Right? I'm throwing a Procise 3mL tank on it with some standard 3.0 ohm boges and some 2.0LR boges. 50/50, so I my carto's only last maybe 3 days, which I think is still good (even though I hear them lasting some people 7-10 days) which I can't see that really working too good. Unless you go outta your way to buy a 200$ mod just for social vaping, might as well use a analog, but kudos to them. Just me getting paranoid, want everything to be there and work, haha I'm even making a fail safe for my new PV haha. Let me know if you think that'd be good, thanks so much, and sorry for writing a biography!

Congrats on your sobriety! I think you'll love the P-mini! I've recently discovered ECBlend juice and it's crazy cheap compared to , well, anywhere. I've ordered about 12 flavors and enjoy all but one. You can adjust the flavor level, pg/vg ratio, menthol/cool hit, add extra flavors, etc. Use coupon code 10020 for 20% off and their 5ml bottles are only $2! I'd say it couldn't hurt to give them a try. I think your plan with the batts/tank/cartos sounds perfect! You should have exactly what you need with that setup. Good luck either way and thanks for sharing your success story! Good luck.

Does anyone know how sales will be handled on the 15th? For the Mini that is... Will they be available on the web site at 12:00 am? 8:00 am? I want to know so I don't miss out. :vapor: Thanks.

Chelly

Don't think anyone knows yet (at least nothing seems to have been posted). I think the general consensus is that everyone will be stalking the website come 12 AM EST (9 PM PST) until it pops up for order. Not much different than stalking the mailman I guess. :p

I just hope that we don't kill the server all trying to order at the same time. :ohmy:

I thought I saw 'ProVape' post in another thread it would be available midnight Pacific time not midnight Eastern time. And don't forget there's a 1hr clock shift Mar. 11th for a lot of us - clock go forward 1 hour.

When I seen a provari mini I was expecting it to be not only shorter but also thinner , maybe something using a 14mm wide battery . I don't know what the longest 14mm batter is though . Is it that much harder to use blue or even green led screens ? I would prefer those over the red used now . I have the satin silver one now so I may get a mini but I think I might wait for the satin black to come out . A blue or green led and I would be in heaven but red will do .

Bdbodger- I emailed them asking is there a way I can ask for a customized provari where I can pick the color and the color of the led and maybe pay as much or more than the 24k gold one, they said the parts are to small and they handle these in the thousands and one customization cannot be done. Don't look forward to it in the future, bc if be all over black with green. But grey with blue is actually a really good mix too, like a font color with a grey backround makes the blue pop out more, I DEF WON'T BUY ANOTHER RED ONE, not liking it at all. Hate that color

Wow you sound like me with almos every sentence you said except different sports. Congrats to you. Msts strawberry bubblegum is awesome.Her shortcake is similar too. I havent found anything to match the quality and richness of msts juices though except my DIYing. You will love the Provari.I could never go back to a non vv mod.
