I think what happened was with the economy the way its been a lot of companies waited until last minute to have parts made and its overloaded the system to create a backlog.

The article you read Jim, it sounds like its been piling up for a couple of months and gridlocked.

LOL....ya. That sure helps the situation.

Actually it was on CNBC - going into Q4 they had some of the execs on saying that they already had backlog for the rest of the year.... I tried to find it but it was several weeks ago...... point being you're not alone with this problem.....

This has to be the saddest news ive got all week lol. ORder number 3051 i was so stoked thinking it would get out this week.

Hey All,

Here's the latest. We have all the metal work done and were ready to roll on our end. We are just held up on circuit boards at the moment. Our supplier is backed up due to the holidays and its causing us to be delayed. We are clawing and scratching at their door along with their other customers and its now a waiting game. Were on your side and want to get these out sooner than later but its that wonderful time of year where things get delayed. I'm hoping by Friday this week we have a update as to when our order is going to be run then we will have a better idea of when orders can start shipping. I'll keep bugging them and keep you all updated as soon as I know more.

They misrouted your package. It usually takes them a few days to figure it out.

Hopefully we'll get an update tomorrow.

My question is, if they are waiting on PCB chips, then once they receive them how long does it take to assemble? I mean if everything was on track last week and they got the news early this week, this tells me it must be a pretty quick process?

Hoping the updates provides a little more specifics like that as well as how long it takes to receive them once the supplier provides a shipping estimate, but again I wouldn't think it would take long since everything was on track last week.

Oh well, Vape On

I got my device, and I'm loving it. Going from a Riva, then a Wetbox, the ProVari is a huge upgrade.

I do have a question though. Would it be possible for us to get a complete list of the error codes? I've been trying various attys that I have sitting around, and have seen a few codes that weren't listed with the included instruction booklet.

Does it actually matter?

Not really. Our lass had ordered me a PS Icon for my xmas prezzy. The kids were getting me the Provari.That has now become a new year prezzy. At least i get a new mod on xmas day (Icon is here and wrapped). So Provari have metal but no pcb's and Infinity have the electonics but no metal. Who is gonna get there first?

Good idea on the complete list of error codes....maybe they can post it ?
