Hi there everyone, I'll try to make my question simple as possible... I have a young june mini LT now. I'm thinking of getting a provari only because i think it would give a batter vape,flavor and throat hit. Is this true? Or atomizers/clearomiziers or those genesis type atomizers are the ones that give good vape and flavor? For me, vape and flavor is No.1 priority .

so should i get a provari or just get a good atomizer or genesis type atomizer/clearomizies? is there a difference in vape,flavor compared to the LT and provari or the atomizers are the ones that give the vape and flavor? thanks alot

Prepare for the wars to begin:) . As a Provari owner, It's just a source of power for whatever you screw into it. It is built like a tank and does have excellent regulation so that it is consistent from when you first put the battery in until it shuts down from low voltage. It is accurate as far as what you set is what it will put out under load. But as far as taste or vapor, you won't notice a difference until you change the part you put the juice in and suck on.

I can agree with that second post. I got two Inokkin Itaste VV that will do everything my Provari will. Go on and take your best shot all. It all boils down to the delivery system. Am I sorry I got a Provari. Heck no I want another. But it's still what's hooked to the end of it that matters the most.

thats what i wanted to hear ;). guess i'll be saving $200+ and $100 on shipping and invest that into some good atomizer. thank you

p.s: I sure hope no war starts out ;)

I don't think the battery tube will improve your air flow.

The Provari will give you a good read on your resistance and allow you to adjust your voltage accordingly.

It is also very well built and a pleasure to own and use. But there are a lot of other real good devices.

yes from what i have read in the forum, the build is good and not to mention the constant voltage delivery of the provari, but as my main concern is flavor and throat hit. if the atomizers or whatever i put on top of the PV is going to give me that, maybe i'll skip the provari now for the time being and get it when i'm more into vaping. For now , my LT could read the ohm reading, show the battery level, does also have short circuit protection etc etc i think it's best that i hold on to buying a provari... Unless of course if it's going to give me a much better vape and flavor than i'll be getting the provari. So ... so far it looks like the atomizers or clearomizers are what gives the good VFT.

If your current battery tube is functioning good enough-put it off. If you want a better burn and better airflow get an RBA. You can get a cheapone that works great for twenty bucks. Your bad vapes are your tanks and carts.

Sorry for the noob question but what is a RBA, oh ok wait i think i figured it out.. rebuildable atomizer? if yes, could you please recommend me some good ones? i current have a vivi nova and i'm not really liking it and also i would want to use a ss mesh . Heard that it provides better vape and flavor? correct me if i'm wrong, thanks

You can put SS mesh onto the Vivi, works well. I've tried both #400 & #500 mesh and both were vaping great, excellent flavor.

A7, Pheonix, AGAs, a few more I'm forgetting. But there are plenty of good intro level RBA.

Oh i didnt know i could use ss mesh on a vivi nova, that means i save even more money now haha, but i think i should try some others too to get more experience. is the cobra genesis clone any good? Saw it on a website...And are they big? My LT is a mini and don't want the top to look huge ;)

thats a phoenix clone can get em everywhere, get a cheap AGA and mesh it up and KAPOW!


and about the provari, im not going there but when you think of it compared to other APV's -think the original hummer, nothing pretty, nothing fancy, but indestructible. and wicked customer service.

another poster today washed his with his clothes and it came out with the battery light still blinking!!!!!!!

if ya want a cheaper APV that kicks it get the VAMO, got that too and i must say for the price it is very hard to beat. slap anAGA on there and youll be swimming in vapor clouds.

then check out the peter k method for rewicking/coiling and youll be on it in no time.

I'll be frank with you, if you've learned on a LT then your good to go to any mod really. The LT didn't have the most accruate settings so you've likely learned to vape by taste and not by numbers. This opens the field up to just shy anything...
I'd say look around, keep in mind what your going to be doing with your mod...obviously if this is a constant bang around, beat up and take a punishment mod...then yes ProVari as they are built like tanks and I don't think you can kill one (Without a lot of work). If your medium to light weight on your mods then consider something a bit less expensive...JoyeTech, VAMO, LT v.4 and I-taste are all good options....
Light weight to collector, look to the Zenisis mods,IHybrids and wooden box mods as these are pricey...they work well however require a bit of modding if you want VW/VV as well as advanced knowladge of PV's.
Pocket friendly and works well may want to consider a Joyetech Twist, its small and does the trick.
Really its all up to you, I'd read through the forum and internet, figure out what fits your needs and go for it...basically speaking they all do what they are supposed to do, fire and atomizer and keep you off analogs. The remainder is quality of build and what you feel comfortable with.
Vaping, is vaping...you make it yours with the choices that you make. :)
Hope this helps out some...keep on vaping and keeping off those analogs..

Sorry but let me get this straight. You buy this RBA and all that needs to be replaced on it are the wicks?
How long will the product work for?

Just wondering because it is $20 for one

BTW the provari mini looks like a beautiful device doesn't it?

yup 1 piece of wick and a 20 cent piece of wire and will hold up for about 2 -3 weeks or so for silica wicks and a month or more for wire mesh wicks if not constantly changing juices.

theres really nothing to wear out, an oring? a screw? maybe, on the better ones they use high quality hardware so possibly be months before something goes easy.

this is why after the cheaper made 20 dollar ones people go cool this is sweet and get an expensive one that very well made, you invest in a nice one and your done.
roll of silica wick about 4-5 bucks for like 2-3 feet. roll of wlre, 2-5 bucks for like 4 feet lol suddenly theres not alot of money to be spent buying carts or clearo heads or other junk. take 20 minutes and whip up a coil and wick then good to go for the month.

There is NO difference in 'vape and flavor'. It's just a battery holder. The flavor comes from what's on the top and of course - the ejuice!!!
