ProVari rookie question.

[fxmunoz]

I just got my Provari from an ECF member and he was kind enough to include a 18500 battery but I notice that the bottom cap does not close completely. Is this normal? I guess I need to buy an 18490?
Just let me know what battery to get and leave a link please.
Thanks in advance.

You want an AW IMR 18490 battery. They have them on the Provape website, or rtdvapor.com, or several other places. The 18500 is probably a protected Lithium Ion battery. The protection circuit on the end of the battery adds a little extra length. AW IMR's are chemically protected, instead of having a PCB in the end.

Hey, two options. buy and extened cap from Provari or order from RTd vapor, make sure it's a awr IM battery. Sorry could not provide link, but Provari sends all their batteries sales through there

You might have problems getting USPS to ship the batteries internationally, so you may want to try finding a local supplier for the AW IMR 18490.
