whoo hoo! My provari just arrived! For the internationals waiting on theirs, mine shipped last Thursday and arrived today, so that was about 8 working days. I'm in New Zealand. I can not be happier! I've been using a little sister for about 4 months now and although it is a good mod for what it is, the constant battery charging and changing was getting a bit much. Will still use it when I need a less eye catching device though.

From opening my box to vaping took all of 2 minutes. Took another 5 minutes to find the user guide, read and check out all the extra functions. Very user friendly and easy to understand.

I am very impressed! This a gorgeous device and well worth the cost and waiting time.

Mine didn't come. The horse and buggy that carries the mail from Columbia to Myrtle Beach probably got tired. Tomorrow, I guess. I usually don't go to my office on Saturday, but I'm making an exception...

Does anyone here run a MAP tank on one of these? If so, what resistance do you have? What voltage do you recommend?

I do 3.1ohm at 3.9-4.0v
U really can use any ohm due to the VV. With the 2.5 ohm I would run 3.4-3.6v

I've got a MAP tank that measures at 2.6 ohms and I run it at 4.0 volts. It's great. I've got my name on the notify list at COV to get another, and then I'm making myself a whole slew of them with ends cast out of food grade epoxy and the clearomizers that promised much and delivered nothing.

Mailman stalking today. Actually left a sign on our box outside that 'We are open today if you have anything to deliver that won't fit in the box'.. Lol.. Not kidding..
I'm on the COV list as well. Well, I'm disappointed to hear about your experience with the clearomizers... I heard many places that they had fewer wicking issues... So I ordered some. Crap. At least they're easier to take apart...

Are you casting the epoxy yourself?

Well, no Provari today. On the bright side, the cartomizers that I ordered on the 27th from Ikenvape and MadVapes both came in. The Ikenvape 510 drip tip cartomizers look wicked... The clearomizers I just got are going home and not coming out of the box until I have enough time to soak them in PGA, boil them, take them apart, fluff the wicks, clip the wicks, and wave a dead chicken over them while chanting.

Off to sulk till Monday...

Yeah, I do that quite a bit for odd parts for cars I'm working on (weekend hobby) and found out it's pretty easy once you know the tricks.

The clearmizers have cracked, leaked, dry-wicked and generally underperformed, and you can't fix them with a syringe mod because the bottom isn't large enough. I'm going to cast the bottom into the epoxy to prevent leaks. It'll mean I have to throw the whole bottom out when the element goes, but epoxy is cheap.

Went to post office this mornin to pick up mine. Batteries were already charged !!! Vaped it all the way home.

Well worth the wait, the best money I have ever spent in this industry. Makes every atomizer/cartomizer I have vapable. Makes thin or thick ejuice just right. Finnaly 1 PV that makes everything good. Now I don't have to have seperate mixes for different atomizers. No more voltage spikes burning my fluid on a fresh hit on a fresh charged battery.

I have almost every atomizer and cartomizer made, from every manufacturer in china. I've been ordering and testing to stock my vapor lounge. I can take the crappiest atomizer I have, tinker with the voltage a bit and make it hit like a LR 306. This thing makes the whole hobby better.

From this day forward, it will be a crusade to help people avoid wasting money on some POS PV they will just replace in a few months. To everyday, help noobies and vets alike avoid the pitfalls of some supplier and his boyfriends posting thread after thread how their rebranded junk pv is the best there is.

Nothing is better then this Provari:
Unless you like suckin on an overpriced wood box.

Feels like I should be charging a battery or something... 13 hours later and I'm still on my first battery. I must be the lightest vaper around... And it's the smaller batteries. Running at 4 to 4.2 V.

I never quite realized how nice a constant voltage supply would be. Dial in to the perfect voltage and it stays perfect. This is vaping nirvana.
