Provari pre-order # ***please post when yours ships so we can keep track***

[Dalton63841]

Provape is the place to get it in the US.

AW 18500's, although it is generally a wise idea to get the extension cap with the Provari Power 18650's. Atomizers are your choice really, although you should get standard resistance to have the widest range of voltage options. For the charger, the Pila is the best, but any Li-Ion that will charge 18500's and 18650's will do fine.

The Liquinator is okay. There are so many options for a cartomizer tank and frankly they are all the same minus small variations.

To be honest that lube is not necessary. It is dielectric grease. YOu can pick up a small packet of dielectric grease from Auto Zone for $1.79. The spring is for people who bought their Provari before they came out with the new spring.

The warranty is a good idea if you intend to keep the Provari for a long time...It extends the warranty to 2 years long.

There are no discount codes.

Satin Silver is the most "wear-proof", but ultimately it comes down to what you like the best.

I personally went with the extended end cap and the 2500mah 18650 batteries. Got 3 of them but I think I'd only need 2 after using them. I'm still on my first battery 30 hours after putting it in.

For chargers you can get the pila one or the other they have available. I went with the other for the car charger option. Not sure if the batteries were partially charged or not when they shipped, but each of them went green in less than an hour on the charger.

Can't speak on the atomizers since I don't think I've used one properly yet. I just picked up a few 5-packs of the standard 510 cartos. I'll also be looking to upgrade to a tank eventually, but I'm still searching for an all day vape flavor to make it worth it.

I got the bottle of lube, but as Dalton said it's cheaper elsewhere. It comes with a 1 year warranty, so no problem there.

I personally went with the satin silver so it would be textured a bit and not show fingerprints. That's personal choice though. If they still had textured black I'd be all over that but they sadly discontinued it.

Let us know what you decide to go with.

I also recommend the extended endcap and the Provari Power batts. Great performance and excellent battery life. Don't worry about the spring and spacer, you'll get one of each if you order any of those batteries. Either charger they sell will work fine.

As for the warranty, if you feel you need it go ahead. It certainly can't hurt, but the unit is already warranted for 1 year without the extended one. Up to you, really

For tanks, they all pretty much perform the same, most of the differences between them are cosmetic. I find my liquinator to fits together a little loosely for my taste, I prefer my cartomators, but it still works fine

For color I went with the black chrome, but this aspect is all personal preference, just go with whatever color YOU want

Getting a good quality atty is key. For me, the IKV1.8 510 is dripping perfection. Reads 1.9 on PV and set to 4 volts. Unlike other attys this one does not require as frequent replenishment of juice. Also when it runs low it doesn't give that burnt harshness. However it does change the tast to let you know you are low. IKVs attys are the way to go.

I'm currently enjoying month steeped BWB RY4 on this setup and is about as good as it gets, IMO.

While I prefer the 2.5ohm atties set at 5.6v, I have to agree. Ikenvape makes the very best atties out there.

Placed my order on Sunday for a black Provari with extended cap and 18650 batts. Just got an email that it has shipped. The only thing that sucks is that I have to go to Boulder CO. for a wedding this weekend and won't be home till late Monday night. Mypoor baby will be be three days waiting for me to get home.

Oh well, at least I will have a lot of fun when I get home.

Is there a "Provari for dummies" thread anywhere? I would be cool to read tips and tricks from other users.

Pretty much the whole Provape subforum really... Anything specific you need help with?

 

[Paulie P.]

You name it. I started out on an 808 on july 12th. Graduated to an ego one month later. I mostly use cartos but have recently discovered attys and dripping. Dripping is a hassle but the flavor is much better.

I guess I just need to figure out what everyone reccomends as far as which attys and voltages. I ordered a big daddy tank to go with it. I wanted a torpedo tank but I haven't had much luck with CE2's.

I will continue to read the incredible wealth of info that is available. One thing is for certain. The vaping community is more helpful than any group that I have ever seen.

GOD I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT TO COME IN!!!!

[Paulie P.]

Got home from Colorado last night where my brand new black Provari was waiting for me. Special thanks to me neighbor for holding my mail for me and protecting my delivery.

I threw both of the new 18650 batts on the charger before bed. Woke up around 3am to go to the bathroom and noticed that the batts were done charging. I couldn't wait till morning. Threw a batt inside and hooked up a fresh atty. Dripped some bountyhuner on top and vaped away. So there I was vaping in my kitchen at 3:25am and my wife comes in. She says "what are you doing, couldn't you wait until morning?". I told her that I thought I could but I was wrong. She shook her head and went back to bed. She doesn't understand.

Have to say that I love this thing so far.

yeah i can relate, told wifey that i was getting a provari and she says WHY! , that i have other mods to use, she just doesnt understand...

We need backups. And backups to the backups. If the unforseeable happens, do they really want us to have to go back to smoking? Think of our health...

Oh yea I think quite a few of us can relate to that....unless they were in our position, how could they ever know.... a Provari vs another mod...its like comparing a Lamborgini to a Yugo lol

 

[santo19586]

Well, it's here, The Provari looks beautyfull... set at 3.3v with 1.4ohm .357 atty and it ROCKS, by the way , i got the silver chrome PROVARI. and it took 3 days to get here, in massachusetts

Got my Provari on Monday and was shocked to see the way it was packaged. Everything was bubblewrapped and stuffed into a USUS Priority box. I figured that the company selling the best PV available would have their own branded packaging. Not a big deal. Just suprised that they haven't made the investment in branded packaging.

[Killjoy1]

lol, Paulie I was a little shocked with mine, too. I passed over all the bubble wrap bits at first and went straight for the fancy black box . . . that was the Pila charger. I can't complain, it was all packed pretty securely and obviously there was no damage, but I was quite flabbergasted that the battery charger was packaged with more pomp and style than the Provari itself

 

[Dark Jester]

If you want a fancy box, the price likely will go up to $180+ for the brushed model, and proportionately on the others. Packaging costs money. I personally like the way they do it. Save the money on the fancy frills, the hardware is sexy enough on it's own.

A fancy box either just ends up in the trash, or collecting dust in a closet somewhere. Think of ProVape as a green company, not sending out extra landfill fodder.

 

[Killjoy1]

Heck, they could have shipped it in a burlap sack for all I care, as long as it got to me in one piece I just got a kick out of the disparity there, is all
