I wonder if Zen still has his Provari collection. He's pretty much slipped from view, but I seem to remember he had a facebook page with really infrequent posts. No, I don't remember its name and don't know if it still exists.

I had forgotten that I had saved this, until your post.
Zen's collection.

The lines between collector, obsession, and fetish are very, very thin.

Thanks!!!! for posting that shot. Guard it with your life. I remembered it but thought it was pretty much unfindable today.

And an interesting mind game. If, for some illogical reason, you were allowed to pick one from that group - and only one - which would it be? I haven't even narrowed it down to 10 at this point.

On the first shelf, the ones with the lines on the sides, there is a gold plated one, it would have to be that one.

I can't argue with that at all. It must be a very early one before I learned much about ProVape simply because I don't remember any with that small of a diameter. But I'd also be tempted by the one just to the right of it that looks to be a pearl white. And maybe another 10 or 12, too.

Edit to add: On the top shelf, now I'm wondering what the top row is sitting on. Surely there's not another row of those behind the bottom row we can see. But, as Mr Longo noted, things can indeed be taken to extremes.

I only remember him posting this one picture.

It is a very early one, and it is actually 24 karat gold plated. I think that @FringeChief68 has one of them also.

OK, so I actually spent some time looking on facebook. He is still active, under his real name. But you have to dig a bit, since there is also a TV weatherman from Oklahoma, a player for the Seattle Seahawks, and a baseball player with the same name who also have pages.

I only scrolled back a year or so, and the content from that point up to a couple of days ago is 98% music related now. Nothing vape related in any of them. I remember at the very end when he showed a snare drum he had hand engraved - this must have blossomed into his new focus of interest. There were a couple of posts that gave me the impression he might have actually been in a band at one time.

So some background that is no help in verifying the collection is still intact.

Top shelf far left corner. A black provape one. I've only seen pictures of the colors for the one's never had a shot at one. But I do have 4 silver one's.

Yeah if I got to choose 2 of them that one would be my 2nd, I kind of remember some one talking about them. They had a very different control board in them, is all I remember.

I had a pink ProVape 1.
It was my first step up from 510s and eGos.
I started having some intermittent firing issues and it went back and forth a few times...then they replaced it.
buy...sadly they replaced it with the heavier newer silver colored one. I tried like crazy to get my pink one back
Granted, it was nice to receive a brand new and newer version...but dang...
(the newer version weighs like twice what the pink one did) Never used it much - I got something else.

My memory does still work!
Although I forgot that you had a Provape 1.
Those two were the ones from Zens collection,
that I would want if I could.

Talking about the beginning
If you take a close look at the tanks on the 24k Gold, Satin Silver, SS Mini, and SS Mini Dragon,
those tanks are all made by Kir Fanis and take cartomizers.

The 24k You can see the hole in the Carto

 

[FringeChief68]

For anyone that doesn't know or remember Kir Fanis

He made tanks, drip tips, beauty rings, and extensions just for ProVari's.
Do a forum search and you find some old post like these,
