I'm holding out for colors.....I fight myself daily not to hit the "buy" button:oops:

My email from Provape is that the mini will be made "in other colors" but that they do not know the date yet. That I should check back in a month (email from March 20) I had asked about RED and they said "as for colors like red- we may be surprised".

Why wait? Make your own. :)

I started it one day and was vaping it the next.

Oh are you the guy that did it with the 3-part spray paint type deal? I was thinking of having it sent to someone to get a powder coating or something.
On the other hand, I don't really think it looks bad or anything, but I wouldn't mind getting something different! Not sure what I would want, though.

Yup, that's exactly who I had in mind. Just curious as to what types of things I can do myself. I remember seeing a thread about someone who used a 3 part spray paint kind of thing, it turned out to be a nice blue-purple sparkly, color changing hue - it looked really nice.. wonder what other stuff there is out there.

That was mine. It's the Duplicolor Mirage paint.

breaking my refresh button
- I like the saddle valve. Admittedly, I just started using it yesterday. If it gets blunt, I'll have my husband file it or something.

Retracting. It can be made to work, and I did file mine to keep it sharp, but there's no way to know how deep you've pierced the carto. I know there are some nice carto punches out there, but I can't see paying $40. My husband has made a rough version. I'm thinking this is something he can do for a lot less money.

I ordered a 510/ego adapter at the same time so I could use my stardust, (visions eGo clearomizer). The carto's work perfectly on my eGo batteries. When I put the adapter on my mini and put the stardust on, I get no power whatsoever. It won't fire at all. Also put the adapter on my box mod and tried the startdust... same thing, nothing. It's like the adapter isn't making contact at all with the carto. Do you think it's a bad adapter?? The provari mini works great and the stardusts work great. The adapter seems to be the problem. Anything I can try or just see about getting a replacement for the adapter??

Also, at first the firing button was trying to stick a little. Go to push the button in to vape and it wouldn't depress. I turned the button in a clockwise position to kind of tighten it in place and so far, no more sticking. Almost felt like the button was a tiny bit loose at first.

Any thoughts on the adapter??

The adapter is adjustable, From here:

Also, you may have to adjust the center section pin of the adapter to ensure it makes contact with the center section pin on the atomizer. To do so, screw the 510~eGo adapter onto any 510 e-Cig battery and then just turn the center section pin with the slot in it, out (counter-clockwise) with a small screw driver about a 1/4 of turn. This will extend the center section pin out far enough to make contact with the atomizer. Adjust as necessary to ensure it makes contact with the atomizer. Screwing the 510~eGo adapter onto a battery first keeps the other half of the center section from turning while making the adjustment.

The adjustment to an adapter as described above needs to be performed only if the atomizer does not fire when using the adapter. This adjustment works with most adapters and may affect the draw as well.
