Provari Mini came back from Provape today, good as new board and contacts, new LED (blue). Nice job....$65....no more voltage drop!
Just got this emailed to me, apparently a picture from the svoemesto guys....
This was apprently posted on the svoemestos creators facebook page, which I dont have the link to? (if anyone has it, please post it)
A closer look
Looks like the Kayfun 4 is getting prepped for prime time...?
Kayfun 4...can't freaking wait
Nope. I will let you know immediately with Pictures!, right?
Hey man, you know the rule....pictures or it didnt happen.
Yeah me too.... and I just picked up another KFL+v2 on the classifieds last night..........................................hi my name is phone guy, and I have a problem.
I am going to try and buy more authentic stuff, thats kind of my promise to myself.... That being said, I have a KF31 clone from FT that I dremelled out the lousy shallow juice channels on, to something more appropriately sized and now it wicks like a dream............ vapes outstanding, its a nice atty for super cheap. I even took apart a damaged fill port and rebuilt it to work again on a clone..... I guess I got to the point where sometimes a little surgery on the tanks is no big deal.
I've been fixing cellphones for years (hence the name) at my shop, so I get pretty comfortable under the hood, so long as I understand the concept of how it works.... ie: why are those juice channels cut deep? why is there a ball bearing in the fill port....LOL

Well not sure about that, but I will tell you that on the 3.1, on the fill port, that bezel where you insert the syringe, is basically a set screw with a hole in it, so it unscrews... then theres a tiny oring, ball bearing and finally a spring.
took off the bezel (hollow set screw or grub screw if you like) by using a small hex head driver
the oring was out of place, had to fish that out with a kanthal hook of wire...
popped out the ball and spring
cleaned everything, and put it back in reverse order.
leaking fill port that would not seal, now works and seals just fine. Also realized why you shouldnt use a metal needle, it moves the oring which is what happened on this one, the plastic tapered needle doesnt disturb the oring, and the pressure of the juice moves the ball, not the needle. Been filling with the plastic needle and so far no problems

I got word today that it just left Los Angeles. I ordered this about 3 weeks ago, so it got on the slow boat from Germany. I can't wait. I think someone said two weeks for shipping. it's going to be closer to a month. As soon as it arrives, likely this week, I will shoot it and show everybody, and give feedback. Believe me, I'm ready. On another note, my Provari came back better than ever. New board, clean, no voltage drop to speak of, blue LED (the one I sent in had a red LED). I like it even better, and only $65 for everything including shipping. Pretty good deal I thought. Can't wait for the P3, though. And really can't wait for THE EYE!
The P3 just doesnt excite me........... looks nice, but too many negatives. The biggest to me would be that 510 connection ring unscrewing with the atty all the time..... that would drive me more crazy than I already am.
I have not seen an official price either, might be cheaper than expected? who know's.... The whole mod scene had changed sooooo much in the last 6 months. Wattage is sky high, prices are dirt cheap.... Box mods seem to rule the scene right now? a lot has changed. Provari will sell a ton of them, no doubt about it..........but I just don't think it would be a good fit for me.

Vaping arts was selling it at $300 but they didn't have the 22mm ring, which I consider essential!! Congrats on the rebirth of your Provari...sounds like it has evolved or something

Our distributor in Egypt told me today that retailers will have the freedom of pricing it between $230 and $270. He expects most retailers to start high and then after a brief price competition it will be around 250. Not bad IMO

Yeah, I get it. Different strokes and all. Like me, I don't like mechanicals (other than to fire coils), or box mods, so I get what you're saying, my friend. On the other hand, I do like higher wattage tube mods at 23 mm, fully regulated, but that's just me. I'm seeing super subohm builds on clones everywhere now, and cloud chasing'itis. Talked with a guy last night who made a .02 ohm coil in preparation for an upcoming cloud competition. I explained that ohm meters less than 3 digits are generally accepted as off by .07 ohms. I mentioned this along with the fact that he's going to hit somewhere over 60 amps on his build, and he explained that he just wanted to see if he could do it. Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot? Do what, make a pipe bomb for your face? Cloud competitions? Yeah, there are many changes going on in vapeland, and we may all very well lose as a result of it. Glad I make everything but my hardware, I'm going to need them, a lot of them, and probably soon!
Hey guys im wondering if theres an official semovar thread? Or is this basically it. My wifes Semovar just s**t the bed tonight, as far as I can tell. I just sent a contact request to Svoemesto. Is there anything else I can do? Any experience out there with a fried chip?
This is the only Semovar thread in ECF. I personally haven't heard of the nivel chip being fried before,but I understand it's very easy to replace
