New ECF acronym: "VGIGS" (pronounced vee-gigs)
So, I usually don't suffer from VGIGS but the ProVari seems to be giving me a rare taste of the disease!
hahaha.. Maybe VGIGS should be laser etched on the side?
It will probably have a different warranty, I'll find out more on this.
Evidently you have not been using the CE2 cartomizers. Some of these things can put out more on 3.1 volts than an LR atomizer. I prefer to vape the 2.5Ω versions between 2.5 and 2.8 volts.
Hi Jimi,
Nick is correct in that most people prefer smaller. Smaller is better right?
We wanted to start out as short as possible then if you want you can get the optional extension that will screw onto the bottom and allow you to use the 18650. It makes it more universal that way
While I can understand the logic, I do not understand the chose. The 18500 battery is not as commonly used on PV's as the 18650 is. Plus if set for the 18650 would that allow it to be able to double stack a 18350 or the 16340 better and not have to deal with an extension? Just may be my simple way of looking at it?
Filed the copyright app on-line right after posting. But I can be bought, say for one ProVari? Color to be chosen after I see your options!hahaha.. Maybe VGIGS should be laser etched on the side?
I like it. I'd really like it if the first 50 posters here got a free one to test and report back on. (Hint, Hint)
a free 50 huh??? welll yea sound like a GREAT idea.... lets see what vape says about it lol
While it sounds like a great idea, probably won't get that one approved. I do admire the creativity though

gotta aim high lol
Cash In hand, car keys in hand, and willing to drive from vancouver down to you guys to pick it up the minute they are ready. In fact we should have a launch party, i am sure there are enough in the pacific n.w. to make this a great kick off to what looks like a great mod. Maybe whomever set up the tacoma meet last month would send out some invites?
That would be fun! I think BigIceDog and MeganVon setup the Tacoma meet??
Question: I sometime's like it a bit hotter than 8 watts, some times 10, sometimes 12 works well. Would this be able to hit 11/ 12 watts if it were presented?
Another question/concern: Some times atties create a "semi-short", inherently reducing the resistance. In these cases wattage would rise at the voltage set point. How far can one go with a shorted atty? IE: will the unit shut down at any point a certain wattage and/or amperage is demanded or will we get that "Holly Cr** - YUCK -- what just happened?) experience?

Oh well it was worth a try. Perhaps a contest so you'll only be giving 3 or 4 of them away. You know you can always back charge them to the advertising dept.
We are planning for the converter to be able to supply 12.5 watts max.
The unit monitors for an output over current condition continuously. If one occurs due to an abnormally low resistance then the unit will limit the current to 2.5 amps. It will also look for a short (an atty with a very low resistance); if it detects this condition it will shut itself off. The shorted atty condition will be detected within approximately 1/3 of a second
Nice! Sounds like it will be another quality piece from you guys. The wait is killing me but it sounds like it will be worth it.We are planning for the converter to be able to supply 12.5 watts max.

Cool
Ironically, I JUST experienced an event that this feature would have, most certainly, been appreciated. I suddenly went from 4.9 Ohms down to 1.7 on my atty (which happens folks). Needless to say, with that occurance, my multimeter came out and I started testing. My measurements and calculations told me at the 6.3 volts i was vaping at that I went from an cool 8.1 watts and 1.28 amps to a horrendous hit at over 23 watts and 3.7 amps. I adjusted down to 4.0 volts and still to this minute are running nicely (crossing fingers). The 2.5 amp cut off [if the (your) chip enters a fast hicup mode] would have put me right at a little over 10 watts. Seems one needs a flashing warning/error alarm that'll tell us when we have gone into protective mode.... Just a thought.
Thanks for your response Pro..
