Yes you are wrong. Consistently charging to 4.1V should prolong the longevity (allow for more charge cycles over the long haul).
And I would expect that the simple act of turning the ProVari on to check the voltage, will in fact drop the voltage from the raw reading of only the battery with a meter. The unit needs power to operate and there will be additional resistance introduced by the device itself.
Again how do you know? And which meter is the accurate one? The cheap multi's that most use or the ProVari's?
I just checked a cell with two different meters.
- 4.14
- 4.16
Those numbers are basically identical for our uses. But the ProVari will round them off. It could be seeing either 4.1 and 4.2 and still be right. And depending on the exact reading, with the rounding off, Scotts drop could be as small as 0.06V.
Whatever problems Scott is having aren't going to be diagnosed with battery readings.
Thanks for the info. I was just grasping at straws to try and help the guy if I could. And you're right, I don't know which is more accurate.
Send me that cell... I wanna check it myself...
I probably won't send it back, though... (this is how to get free batteries without going to the PIF)
Hey igetcha! You may have already mentioned this but how many 18500 batteries have you tried with the Provari? I mean, if you've only tried using 1 or 2 then it may just be a bad battery or two. If you have other 18500's or 18650's with the ext cap try every bat you can to see if the problem remains.
for a newbie considering this PV, if you know how to drip and have a i.e. reg joye 510 atty (2.2 Ohm), set at 4.4 volts on the Provari, you will get the most fantastically satisfying vape I've ever tasted/vaped.... yow!!!
hi mate,
ive got two of the recommended 18500's and both do the same thing. ive got a pile of other 18500's but none fit as i didnt bother getting the extension...........didnt think i would need it, lol
cheers
scott
just had contact from David at Provape and they will be sending me out another unit along with a return box for the old one 
fingers crossed it has a speedy delivery

Good to hear Scott. I wished they'd expedite it for you. Can't wait to see your review and your crazy smoke ring skills at full display with the provari.
Man thats some bad luck. It's good to see Provape take action like that though. Hopefully we wont see this happen to many others.
has anybody else got their provari yet? what was the last order number to be received?
Happy New Year everyone.
Since we are waiting on parts, took a few days off to get some rest. Sorry If I missed any questions, bump them if you didn't get a answer.
Some of our suppliers are on short schedules this week from the holidays. Well get a update next week and plan to ship another batch here in the next week or two. I'll keep you updated as we get news.
Have fun and be safe tonight!

this is probably a silly question but...on average how many would you say you usually get out with each batch?
It's been different with each and they are getting larger. We won't know until the boards arrive and they past test.
o ok np , hopefully im not being to bold here but where does the provari actually ship from, like what state?

GREAT video, i think i had like a solid 10 minutes of being able to drool over the provari haha and it was great getting to see it at all the different volt levels. EXACTLY what i was lookin for, ty hifistud

Don't tell Imeo, but it's just about all I've used since it came - and I've got around fifteen other atty/carto combinations to test before it gets a whole hour-long show to itself. I'm discovering sweet spots on various atty/cartos that I never knew existed, and it's just so simple to set it where you want it. I am very favourably impressed. Got to get a UK supplier for it!
