Sure thing!

The foam inside is really soft so even with the bigger battery and extension you can just kinda squish the ProVari in there. Can also do the same with the carto/atty attached without having to trim any foam. Or, you can easily trim the foam for that custom fit and look. These cases are designed to carry...uh...glassware so the shell is fairly firm with very soft foam inside.

Thanks for stepping in there for me. Was out to lunch....literally....LOL

My pleasure!
I was actually in the process of ordering my pretty blue trimmed one when he wrote & I know what it's like having to wait when I see something I really really want to check out.
It also helped to write out my assumptions for correction in the case I was wrong LOL

Thanks again for the great find & the pics that sold me on it!

huh? you mean you take your Provari's out of the house???

i don't trust myself... it stays put right here... i got less valuable for runaround vaping... (eGo), and my favorite bottom feed (the gravity fed one btw)...

so i have some use for my LR attys too. actually i use all three at home too... different juices, and while one cools off ... lol.. i'm full on "chained" to my vapes.

I've had three of those cases so far, I just sold one with a ProVape 1... They are great protection and look excellent too. And you just can't beat the price.

Currently the ProVari is the only PV I use. I've even put the passthroughs I built away along with my self-built box mods. In fact, I'm starting to lose the "I" in the "ProVari" logo...LOL. This unit has survived a few falls and regular pocket bashing. No issues. The nicks and scratches don't bother me too much anymore.




Vape it like you stole it!

It would be no problem at all! I use the 2ml Clear E2 mod with at 3.2Ω and find, for me, the perfect setting is 4.0v. Cigarbabe ....you're going to just love it!

If I ever get one I'm sure I will!:laugh:
If anyone hates their Provari I'll buy it!:p

Actually, it does. I bought 2 AW IMR 18650 batts with my ProVari order and it's happening with both batts. The batt voltage gets to 3.5-3.6 and the ProVari won't vape. It's happened several times now. It doesn't happen all the time but enough to make me wonder what's going on. I remove and re-insert the batt and then it vapes again.

When it happens I check Cb and it won't read the volts. The display shuts off with Cb still showing. When I remove and re-insert the batt the ProVari will vape again. I then check the Cb and the volts read 3.5 or 3.6. I haven't changed vaping voltage or my carto. Sometimes it just goes dead til I remove and re-insert the batt and sometimes it will go all the way to the 3.4 volt cutoff and the button flashes red.

Other than that, the ProVari is working aok.

We originally thought this was due to the protected batts but what's happening is at the higher voltages when the battery gets down to the end of the charge cycle, 3.55-3.4 volts and below, its making a very steep decline to the end of battery life. A lot of power is being drawn from the battery to pump the voltage up and more so when the battery is low.
This is where the device will shutoff and its time to change batteries. The voltage drop is happening very fast and you are seeing it turn off when the voltage tumbles down to the cutoff point. When the device has shut off due to being out of power you can still get into the menu and change some settings but the CB and AO modes won't display anything because they both need power from the battery to operate. These two modes won't work when the device has turned off.

At the lower voltage settings there is a much slower decline to the end of the battery life, so you have a little more time from when the led flashes to when it cuts off.

When you remove the battery and reinsert it you are able to get a little more power out of it because batteries will recover some. At this stage in the battery cycle you might only get a few more puffs until it turns off again.

Uke i can just picture what we look like when we are vaping and hitting this thing out in public. I was going to the VA hospital yesterday afternoon and i was at a red light. i dripped a couple of drops onto my 306 atty. Then i noticed the car on my right, the lady was watching me. i have a Honda civic so low to ground she had a van type so she was higher. Then i started hitting it. Noticed she was still watching me and shaking her head lol. i really liked the vape so i hit it hard and many times turning my head to see if she was still looking. she seen i spotted her looking and just gave me a look. i smiled and i held out my MOD (wasnt the Provari) and showed it to her and i gave the notion like hey you want to try some. she turned her head quick and looked straight ahead. This was done faster than how i typed it but this woman thought i was hitting some other stuff. I could picture myself here i am a 60 yr old guy hitting this thing in my hand and hot boxing it and blowing vape all over. People are really funny the way they act. BTW this light is at a major intersection and is kinda long but believe me i thought this w2as funny. I get looks and then i dont get looks. but most people just mind there business but the others well i think its funny. some people just are so ignorant tghey think the worst. btw the music was loud on the stereo and i am digging the music so you can see this lady thought i was a wacko lolol. and ya know she couldnt have been much older than me. frigan prude lololol
sorry for being off topic i just thought maybe some wanted a laugh. i thought it was hilarious. just the looki she gave me was worth a million lol
Happy Provari days to all

You can't really blame people for thinking like that, though.

When I started vaping, I thought to myself that I would never get a mod because they look like fancy bongs. Three months later, and 3 mods later, I really don't care what they look like but I can appreciate the fact that most people will think your smoking some sticky icky...

It's a PV, not the Crown Jewels!

My watch costs more and I take it out of the house... I don't have an indoor watch and a telling time around town watch...

I can understand having nice things and keeping them in good condition, but... WHY not use it everywhere?

Once I got the ProVari... everything I had except for my trusty Buzz went up for sale...

More boards coming in tomorrow! It will be a busy weekend. Keep your eyes open for ship notifications sometime this weekend.

We also updated the photos on the website, so those who need some new material to view will have some better photos to look at. :)

How many more boards? What's the estimate of how many will go out? Inquiring minds want TO KNOW!! :)
