That thing is wayyy cool.'

Okay so the 2.5 is 10 power amps, and the 1.5 was 16.6666!, i did it using 5 volts.. so wow, it is the opposite of what you would think. okay i'm definitely getting the 2.5 ones. wow, that calculator is neato jetto'. thanks BluSwatch! I bookmarked it. its fun'.

meems - here is this ohms thing .... LOL I remembered someone showed it before. You want to keep your amps low, I think, for longer batt life, so you can plug #s in and see what's best. :)

Here's an example you can use to remember how voltage and resistance work - now this isn't actually how voltage, resistance and ohm's law work, and I'm sure an electrical engineer would kill me, but that's not the point of this example :p

Think of a rope - you're holding one end of it, and another person is holding the other end. We'll call you "voltage", and we'll call them "resistance". You're trying to pull them towards you. Now the harder they pull back on their end (or the more they "resist") the harder you have to pull to get them to come towards you. If they don't resist as hard you don't have to pull as hard. The greater the difference between how much they resist and how much you pull, the faster you are going to pull them towards you (power, or "wattage").

vaptamist - but isn't keeping your amps lower how you increase battery life? We can use that to get a general idea how what we are using is going to effect out batt life, right?
I have all kinds of cartos (all single coil) so I can see what combo gives me the best deal, correct? (I am getting a headache LOL)

LOL, i'll bet you dollars to donuts, i'm going to be doing the same thing. i'm hoping 4.7 or 4.8 is it. but i've never had a provari so maybe its higher..or...lower..hmmm...
so tell me what you like about it? tease me til i get mine.


Meems

What's giving me a headache is clickin' this little button all over heck! :laugh:

I will be soo happy when I find the best spot, and can LEAVE it there....... uh, not to defeat the whole purpose of VV or anything. :facepalm:

I'm hoping I will be satisfied with 3ohm boge's at 6v for 12w... Right now I'm using 2ohm at 4.2v for 8.8w and I definitely want to go hotter. If I'm happy at the 12w hopefully the 18350's will last me a while. They should at least last me all day at work as I don't really chain vape (at work).. I have no problem swapping batteries when I get home and charging the other.
Plus I got 2x 18350's and 2x 18490's just in case :)
I really hope the Provari comes tomorrow! And I hope my 3ohm cartos come too!
Keeping my fingers crossed!

meeems - I like how small it is ... that is why I want to stick with the 18350s. I got the ext cap, but hate to put it on ... might as well go full sized then. It is heavier than I thought it would be also. I am used to GLVs, and this is heavier than my 5v ones. It works great, does what it's supposed to. I went and read the instruction manual, just so I could say I did, and it's very straight forward.

subver - I have alot of 18350s because I also have a Mini LT, so I can carry a couple with me if I am out. I will probably take an eGo or Mini Glv in the car, but think I would also take the Mini ProV..... it's so cool. :laugh:
I do like the full sized one also ....

Awe Str8, maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised and it will show up tomorrow. at least you get mail on saturdays. we dont get mail here on saturdays.

Andy, i'm so excited, cant wait!, lavatube is built by a blind guy with no hands'... my top has come off so many times, i've just been lucky that the wires havent disconnected, i'm using 18650s with it of course, and i'm literally changing batteries every 2 hours, because the voltage goes down so much. like i said, i cannot wait for this provari mini, my very first provari, i cant wait to play with it in the dark with the blue led'. ooh boy!

Meems

Still didnt get a tracking . Guess i may be waiting a couple weeks.The difference a hour makes

Any chance you could take a pic of the mini with the VPX on it?
btw, what colors did you get?
i want pink, but theyre out. bummer.

Meems

I will, when I get the mini in should be today or Monday. My VPX tanks are all satin, one frosted (custom) and one tinted(I am sure out of stock but bought from Nhaler as is). (kinda like car tint, dark grey) (too many parenthesis)

Here's one I found
79428d1329541523-bdv-whos-your-daddy-tank-my-provari-bdv-provari2.jpg


Not bad, but actually looking at that PVX one, I like the tapered end caps better! Hmmm, decisions, decisions... :p

Tell it like it is! I loved the Big Daddy Tanks...they are so 7 months ago. The lips are just sticking out to far to look awesome on the Provari.
