a big mod like a vamo with 18650 and an XL cartotank... good conversation starters at the bar. stands out.
+1 usually for r2d2 wrap...

Built-in battery devices may seem practical at first, the performance is "ok" but they cost way more in the long run because you have to replace the whole unit once the performance start decreasing.
With a MOD you get more features, more performance, longer lasting bigger batteries that you can replace for a much lower cost.

Right now these taste exactly the same.
Maybe that's because they are set up to taste exactly the same.
Ok stupid/noobie question time. What attys are those?
hmmmmm being a gamer I have been considering having a symbol of the HORDE or Sauron's eye JWrap made for my Vamo. Might be interesting to see what those do to flavor.
Gah, you play Horde?! Long live the Alliance! (Though I can forgive you as long as you're not rocking a Panda... LOL)
And this is a good thing? I wouldn't know.Provari. I have two (and several other mods) and the Provari's get 90% of my attention because they provide me with the most consistancy and dependability from the others.
More expensive initially, but consider a Provari has a longer warranty, and that Provape will continue to service a Provari for as long as you own it. None of the Chinese mods can offer that, once they break after warranty you can toss them in the recycle bin. So buy once, cry once...regret buying one never.

Squishy mod?
The REO Variable Voltage (VV) Grand is a personal vaporizer milled out of block aluminum. The benefit is a nearly indestructible unit that can take a beating. This particular mod also carries a Variable Voltage chip made by NotCigs (maker of the Buzz Pro), giving you the ability to adjust the voltage that best fits your needs between 3.5 volts and 5.5 volts. The chip also has a 15 watt maximum power output, wheel adjustable voltage dial, reverse battery protection, over current protection and over temperature protection. It carries a 6ml bottle on board (and comes with one extra bottle) that holds your e-juice, and runs on two AW IMR 18350 3.7 volt batteries.
Here's my silver VVG I held hostage for ransom, the newspaper was proof-of-life

Actually after 7 years in WOW I have played BOTH factions just not on the same server. I am still too old school for that.
Actually I rock a troll rogue LMAO. I am very popular at thanksgiving turkifying time and frequently park outside org to let people hit me with their turkey shooters. Horde and ally alike.
Black and Silver do taste different. I learned that when I was a child
I also heard if you put stickers on your honda it will add +3HP to engine performance.
If I know TJ they are probably cheapy addys with a drip shield probably from empiremods and frankly those taste to me about the same as a hh.357 hybrid on a non-bottom feeder, I think the cisco stuff holds a drop or two more

Point well taken Baditude, thanks for the advice. Provari it is then.
Was kind of second guessing the provari. I was at Disneyland last week and sat next to an Asian guy smoking an analog. I pull out my spinner and start vaping away. He asked how much I spent on my setup, I told him about $40. He then pulls a provari out of his bag with a nova on it and I am wondering why he is smoking an analog. Guess vaping just does not cut it for everyone. Anyway he was a really cool guy but that kind of had me second guessing the provari for some reason.
helping noobs on here is fun, but i eventually need to go to college..
the skinny is that mods use replaceable batteries. the egos and cigalikes just die in 6 to 12 months and then they are disposed of. With a mod u dispose of the battery and keep on using the mod. the allure of a high quality mod like a provari? go to provape and read what makes provari special when compared to other mods. Its got a smooth vape that many of us whom have been vaping for a looong time, find just a little bit superior to the ways some of the cheaper mods function. It also feels good to own something that you know will LAST. u can send a provari or a reo or a saber touch in for repair whenever something breaks. U cant do that with china mods, egos, ect. Mods are fuuun. even the cheap ones. I started on a black lavatube. Looked like a little pipe bomb. I hate the way it looked to this day. But I was so excited to finally try variable voltage and see how long an 18650 mod would last me that I had to get it! That is another thing, mods give you BATTERY LIFE. Big time. You dont have to worry about running out, or making SURE that other bat is on the charger lol. Even though my main mod is my provari 18350 which takes up to 4 charges/switches a day... its easy to carry an extra bat w/u. 18350s are 650-700mah, roughly 5 hours of vape time. A mod is a mod, is a good thing to have. It will benefit you both at home (long maintenance free battery life, bigger tanks look nice on it, so more juice can be held for at home or while out. Lots of benefits.

some people don't always give up the cigs completely. everyone is different.

100% agree with Scots post. I started with V2 cigs, my next step was vision spinner/ego twist with vivi nova tank. Now I am using an Evic and got a carto tank from Ibtanked. One thing I would add is consistency of hits, as the battery dies on the spinner so does the vape to a degree. A mod regulates this better for a more consistent vape.

LOL, that's very cool. Yeah I'm always hunting Trolls for those types of achieves... Dang the fact Darnasus isn't the place to be anymore...
OH-Geez, this could become a long post if I let it.
My drippers start out in life as Joyetech LR 510-T's, but here is what is required to properly modify them for dripping.
Once they have been modified then comes the task of setting them up properly. The 510-T only has one side hole in the base instead of the usual two, so if you don't get it right you will have the proverbial golf ball through a straw.
This is what I use
The shorty extension does not have a sealed center post, also most shorty extensions have a center post that is to long, and the ends are sloted instead of being a flat surface like a sealed extension has. This allows me to maximize air flow through the center post of the atomizer. I can then slide the drip shield up or down to get the exact air flow that I want.
For comparison sake, the 510-T will have more flavor than a HH-357, but less throat hit.

To me, the provari is still a bit of an iPhone. Looks cool, has plenty people hyping it but still too expensive for what it is.
Lifetime(?) warranty is nice but shipping it back to the US from NL, will cost me the same as a new Vamo
For the money I would have spend on a provari, I now own a zmax V3 telescope (60), evic (65) and a vamo (40).
Maybe if someone wants to get rid of one, I buy it 2nd hand but 160+ is just too much for just a steady flow of electrons imho.
What else is so great about it? What am I missing here?

Instead of iphone I think of it as ipad and I agree, I guess I never factored in the oversea's time/money but I'll be honest with you. There's a pretty good chance you're never going to be sending a provari back to provape for any reason. I guess folks with vamos and stuff assume things have a lifespan but I'm over 6 months into the game, and have done some stupid things along the way, and I never had to mail it back for repairs.
I guess I'm more cynically minded than you are. In my mind and reasoning, if someone can afford smokes, they can afford an e-cig. They just need to spend what they put out for cigarettes on a reasonably priced starter kit. I was a 2-3 PAD, this called for a provari starter kit

Where a person lives is a major factor for which is the best option. Good example, I just had my Jazz pipe updated with the new switch. Total cost was $2.20 in postage to send it to them.
Now if I lived in Poland for example, that probably wouldn't have been an option. I would have just put up with the old style switch.
but I would probably have one of the really cool mods made in Poland instead of the Jazz Pipe
