I've seen several speculate and wish there was one but no official word. I personally don't think it will happen UNLESS they are planning on eventually doing away with the V2. I don't think many would continue to buy a V2 when they could get a Mini with all 3 battery options.
Provape has already said the units are very similar in price to manufacture, and they are priced the same. If the "full-size" Provari were to be supplanted by the Mini, they'd still make the same profit on each unit sold.
I think an 18650 cap will happen.
The mini has the V2 upgrade right? And also there will be a blue led option when first released right?
Just checked the Provape forum and it looks like from what everyone is saying the Blue LED Option will be available on the 15th.
So are you guys going to go with the 14500 batteries? If I'm going mini I want it small. I go through an 18650 2,500 MaH battery and SOMETIMES a quater of the 18650 AW IMR 1,600 MaH battery while only using my provari at around 4.0-4.7. I know I'm a huge chain vapor, but will 4 of the 18350 700MaH batteries be enough for me? I have no prob carrying 3 in MsTs bottle buddy that just hangs onto my keychain, as well as a bottle keychain so I got my stuff good to carry, just need to know if 4's enough
That's how I understand it.
I don't know why Provape hasn't come out with a XL Ext Cap? So a Mini can run either a 18350 or 18490/18500 or a 18650.
I think if they did, many people who are on the Fence Price Wise would go for it.
So I buy the extension cap while checking off boxes for batteries and carto's and everything, that end cap will hold 1850 AW IMR Batteries?
Yes the end cap will extend the Mini from 18350 to 18500. The same end cap will also extend the V2 from 18500 to 18650.
There's some confusion here: There currently is no cap available that will allow the Mini to use an 18650 battery. The 'standard' extension cap will allow the Mini to use 18490 batteries.
So your going thru a 2500mah + 1/4 of a 1600mah = about another 400mah so about 2900mah total give or take
4X18350s @700mah would equal 2800mah so it would be close.
These figures are useing the stated mah which might be different then the actual mah of the battery used, Just because a battery states 2500mah it may actually be plus or minus this figure. They usually degrade over time and use as well maybe starting out between 2400-2600mah and after a months use only recharge between 2200-2600 and continue to degrade over time.

Yea I did the MaH math, I'm going to buy 4 of the 18350's, the extension cap, 2 18490's, and I need 2 18650's bc my "provape 2,500MaH) battery has a short circuit or something, the charger is showing it has a short circuit or something so I'm not going to touch that one anymore, I'm lasting on just 1 2,500MaH provape battery and one AW IMR 1,600, I think I'll be alright with more than enough batteries and options
Didnt think the 2500mah battery was recommended for use in the Provari?
