I have been vaping for a few weeks using a Galileo mech mod with a aerotank and a protank with a aero airflow controller.

I like the set up so far but the local shop I went to said I should think about getting a rba. Never thought about it before but now I am. Do you guys have any suggestions on which RBA's I should be looking at?

Also I find myself wanting a Provari. Should I jump into RBA's and should I get a Provari when I've only been vaping for a few weeks?

Thanks in advance guys :)

Ahem... Do you really want to know what I think? :)

I've been vaping for 4+ years and I still have no intention of winding my own coils, going sub-ohm, soldering or acquiring a mechanical mod.

I have a bunch of regulated variable voltage and wattage batteries, from eGo-C Twist to ProVari and Sigelei Zmax. i love them all and I use them all the time. I use stock atomizers and I'm a happy camper. I like Kanger BCC lineup, Aspire BDC and occasionally I enjoy a carto tank. Life is good.

But that's just me--I vape in order to get my nicotine fix, a familiar hand-to-mouth activity and nice flavors.

YMMV, of course.

Welcome and good luck!

First, get ProVari for AeroTank and enjoy the consistent vaping.
Second, get IGO-L and learn the basics. Use ProVari initially to drip safely. Once you learn the basics of battery and able to coil consistently, you can use your mech mod to drip.

ProVari+AeroTank and Mech+RDA. That is a sweet setup even for veterans.

Thanks for reply guys.

My budget for the rba is up to 100. I'll probably get the provari first while I learn what I need to about rbas.

Any suggestions where to get the IGO-L from?

Also should I get the Provari straight from their site?


To Katya, my intentions when I started was just for the nicotine craving as well. But now I see myself looking at new things all the time. Not sure if thats how it is for everyone hahaha.

Nah, get yourself a Sigelei Zmax V3 or V5 like I did. Less cost, better features and with good care will last you just as long as a Provari. Then buy the best atomizing device and batts you can.

Love my Sigelei mini. I like the dual 510/eGo connection, I like the vv/vw options and I like the OLED display. Never had a problem--maybe we're just lucky.

I been happy with my Kraken clone now for a while. Sits on top of a FT Nemesis. This along with a modded Chobra are really the only things I use. The egos, the carts and clearos along with the Vamo sit in a box and collect dust. The Vamo gets more use as a multimeter for coils and batteries than a PV. I'm done with cloud chasing since I've found it in 0.8 - 1.0 ohm builds. I just cant see the point in another electronic PV.
