Baditude, thanks! That's a sweet one you have, what is that tank? Blue and orange ... if it were a darker blue it would remind me of "Da Bears" especially being football season is here. HA!

Thanks, I'm rather attached to this tank. It is a Bella Elegance tank from Hoosier Vapes. It is somehow crafted from solid blocks of acrylic plastic by the creator. The top end cap and mouthpiece are one and the same, and filling is accomplished merely by twisting off the top.

After doing some research, I found out that the clear custom pyrex glass tanks from Phiniac would fit the Bella tank. I ordered one with a colored sandblasted design. The green juice inside is Juicy Vapor's Ecto Plasma.

I have the Provari and am extremely satisfied with it. When I got mine I ordered the kit, which comes with 2 18490 batteries, and I also got the extension and one 18650. I have found that the 18490 battery lasts a long while so I hardly ever use the 18650. Also, the extension doesn't look as nice as the original end and the unit doesn't sit upright as solid with the extension as it does with the included end. If I had it to do over I'd forgo the extension and 18650. It also fits in my hand much better without the extension.

I like it a lot better without the extension but I definitely need the 18650 some days. I knew I wouldn't like the extension but I guess it's a good option to have.

That's an interesting thought about the extension cap and the bigger batteries ... might be able to save a little up front and then if it's discovered we want the bigger batteries just buy them with the extension cap. We'll see how it all turns out tomorrow. Maybe I'll just order 2 or 3 or the regular batteries a piece. We'll have to see ... either way I know I'll be happy. :)

Baditude - that is even more wicked looking with the up close and personal view of the tank. WOW! Nice choice ... going out to hoosier vapes now to check out the tanks. Thanks for the information. :thumbs: I'm just a number of questions ... how does Juicy Vapor rank with their nicotine levels. I've been vaping 18mg from Johnson Creek, got some 18mg and 12mg from Virgin Vapor coming my way. I noticed Juicy Vapor has some in between nic levels too and 18mg is actually considered very high compared to high from other places.

You're going to love it. When I'm not fiddling with the did, I'm using exactly what you've got coming, all the time on both devices. I've spent too much money ;) trying to figure out what I like best. I'm pretty sure I am done for the time being. Vivi 2.5's on the Provari = awesome combo! Enjoy:)
Ps - I've got a couple of the replaceable heads drying out after a good washing, not sure if I'll go that route or for the price just throw a new one in as needed. At any rate you'll probable want to have a few spares. I think someone already pointed it out, but you do get three heads with the vivi (all different resistances however). Not that will matter much with your banging new mod, just dial it back into your sweet spot :)

That is very nice. They never appealed to me until they brought out the colors. I might get one for either my 6 month anniversary or 1 year. Course if I do it for the 6 month I get a purple one sooner. :laugh: I thought I'd maybe get a celebratory mod - even tho I'm quite happy with my vape gear as is.

Nice setups Synthros! I understand about the cash, about 6 weeks ago, getting into the electronic cigarettes, I ordered from 2 other companies and both my husband and I wound up going back to analogs and sending both back because they just didn't hit the spot so to speak. We went with the VEA system, which has been GREAT, has kept both of us off of analogs for 2 entire weeks now. HOWEVER, I have caught myself looking at other systems and going back and forth to spend the money on something cheaper and hope or just break down spend the money and get the ProVari. Finally, my husband said, let's just get it, if it's working for that many other people and lasting that long ... it's got to do the same for us. :) The money up front is a little tough to swallow but the money saved in the long run will be most excellent!

LMAO Spicy ... 4ohms and 6 volts eh? Yeah, I could imagine my retinas would blow up!!! HA HA HA! And I agree with filet, you're name is EPIC!!!! <heh>

kiwi - I say you're 6th month is around the corner and go for it. Looking at your banner, check out all the money you've saved, you could buy a few ProVaris. :lol: Besides, what a nice gift to yourself for being off analogs for that period of time! :thumbs:

Z_ghost - glad to help ... this is a terrific forum and my experience has been nothing but positive.

So, with that ............ the deed is done, the 2 ProVaris are ordered and I have received e-mail confirmation. The only thing I changed was to skip the extension cap with 2 18650s and went with 3 of the 18490s per ProVari instead. This was just after reading a few other people's opinions about the extension cap and the feel while vaping. I figure if a couple bigger batteries are needed down the line, I will order them and the extension caps, but for now just take the new "toy" as is. <heh> Thanks again for all the help and comments everyone ... you all ROCK!!!!

Let the waiting game begin ....................................... ;)

I hear you, imho the price is too high. Having said that I don't regret buying them at all. I can honestly say that unlike some other purchases I have made when I actually had it in my hand and used it for the first time, I was very ok with my decision to buy. The provari has really hit a sweet spot of rock solid build/reliability and features/safety, imo. I can get those in something else, but it is extremely difficult if not impossible to get them all in one unit and be able to just "click it and get." availability was the clincher for me.

YAY! WNCmotard. I just saw the tracking and it said it is supposed to be delivered tomorrow and expects a signature. WHEW! Good thing hubby will be home ... bad thing, my tank may not be here until Friday. DOH!!!! I really figured the tanks would be here before the ProVari's. :lol: Maybe I'll get lucky and both will arrive on the same day ... please oh please oh please oh please. HA HA HA!
