Put your provari in a small suitable sized plastic bag from the cap end up. Bring the plastic bag up past mid section of your juice delivery device and wrap with a rubber band.

Obviously, this method only works with RBAs, as their air intake is located in the cap of the device. This is the method I use when hiking and shooting or I bring a ego c twist or a sigelei Zmax.

I wouldn't even worry about it. Provaris are fairly water resistant already. The top is sealed and the window is practically sealed. You only have to worry about the button hole and the hole in the bottom cap which shouldn't really let water in. Just keep it in a pocket when you are not using it and keep the bottom hole covered the best you can with your finger.

I have used mine in the shower before.

There have been stories here of a Provari getting dunked in a swimming pool and going through an entire wash cycle in a washing machine and still working after allowed to dry out.

Getting water on the inside of the Provari isn't a big deal as part of the Provari maintanance program is to pour isopropyl alcohol directly into the Provari. I'm not sure how the battery/electrical circuit would like water added to the mix, but if allowed to dry out there should be absolutely no damage done to the Provari. I would think just getting the body wet from a rain shower would not be an issue.
