Volcano E-Cigs actually sold me some awesome AW IMR 18650s, the same that Provape sells. This hobbit hides in the shadows, and knows what to look for.
Provari V2 vs V2.5, and related questions

My provari will inevitably see concrete at high velocities whether or not I like it. It is the fact of life... The Lavatube V2 dies everytime after hitting the concrete, so I need a more reliable unit...
You folks sure do like to vape at weird times or got problems with gravity like my ex's cause I never dropped any of my mods except on carpet once in a blue moon, even my Reo which is indestructible gets treated like gold. I'd worry more about the delivery device breaking than a mod breaking
What can I say? I am a klutz. And what is this about "vaping at weird times"? Sure, I would love to treat my mods nicely, but inevitably, they always see concrete.
ElectraClyde says that the ProVari V2.5s inner diameter is slightly different than the V1 and V2, in this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/provari/409960-provari-mini-more-options-3.html
Also, GR-Modders has a listing for an extension cap (extension 18650 for mini Provari v2 By Kir Fanis - Gr-Modders), where they write, ATT!! Only for v2.Not for v2.5. This also suggests that there is a physical difference between those two versions.
So, if that info is correct, then some threaded attachments, designed for the V1/V2, may not work with the V2.5. But, things designed for V2.5 should work with all three versions.

I saw this on GR-modders and found it curious since both of my end caps, extension caps and my Twins by Atmistique are interchangeable between my Mini v2.5 and my regular v2 with no problems or tightness. Now I understand why. They must all be made to 2.5 spec.

I just e-mailed cig-techs, as soon as I saw this post, I ordered one of those extension tubes today, on their website they just say, its for provari's
To my understanding, the only difference between 2 and 2.5 is simply cosmetic, and that is why I ordered a blem. The only issue with mine was a faded logo. That is fine with me 
For what it's worth, I have two complete Tatroe base/extension sets from Cig-Tech. They work on both my v2.0 Provari and my v2.5 Mini. Threading, fit and finish is a fine as if Provape had made it.

I got a silver blem in February. I never found the blem. As for different versions, many of us (myself included) like the v2 looks better on the full-size. The ProVari logo is the only difference on the minis. Any way you go, you will be happy with your purchase. I have a full-size and a mini. No regrets.

The Tatroe bases are a really nice addition because they allow you to stand 'em up on the desk without knocking them over. You can also use the rings with the original endcaps. WIth 2 rings on an 18350, you can get the 18650 size. No pictures, the rings were out of stock when I got mine, but I will be getting some on my next visit.
I would have ordered the extension with my 2.5 if provari would have had it, but they didn't. Then once I received my 2.5, I realized that I really need it, if I am wanting to use my longer batteries with the base. I really wanted the tatroe tanks, and I was going to hold off on ordering them for a few weeks. Then friday I just thought, with my luck if I waited, they would be sold out of the tatroe tanks. So I was already ordering the tanks, just added the rings to the order. The post that had the link to gr modders, just mad me panic, I think that gr, must have some of the older rings, and cig techs must have the newer ones.

I could actually use that taetro base, especially when I have my RSST loaded onto my Provari (I like to get mine @ 2.0 ohms.) I don't see the big ooh ah about Bottom Coil stuff, and sub-ohm stuff on Mechanical Mods. Where can I get one, IN THE USA??!! The last link I found was for Europe, and well... I don't live there quite clearly, although I would love to... Europe has their politics in line...
If you are asking about the tatroe tank cig tecks has them. They are in the usa, they have the bases also, if that is what you are asking for.

I just received my Twins extension yesterday and it threads really well into my V2.5 Mini. I didnt try it on my V2.5 standard size, but there shouldnt be any differences.
Sorry kas, I didnt intend to cause anyone to panic I just thought that that info may be helpful to someone.
BTW: Did your Cigtechs order ship? I placed an order early in the morning on July 5th, but it still hasnt shipped yet. Since this is my first order from them, Im not sure if this is typical or not for them.
Thanks.
There may also be some manufacturing issues with some of the Provape extension caps.
My satin silver Provape extension cap is a bit rough about half way through screwing it in. Mine screws in all the way, its just not as smooth as I was expecting from Provape. My blue Provape extension cap, however, screws in really smoothly.
All of my Provape regular (non-extension) caps are really smooth.
