Have you tried your v8 with an rba dripper? Clouds! It's amazing.

I've tried my AGA T+ with glass tank on all of my mods, with the exception of the BB. It works nicely on all of them. I use it primarily on the Silver Bullet, but often put it on the Provari to occasionally check the ohms on my coil and insure their are no error codes (hot spots that I might not be aware of).

The AGA is relatively heavy, so putting it on the lightweight Gripper or V8 kind of defeats the purpose of why I chose them. They are primarily my out-and-about mods when I'm away from home.

Get a bully or Phoenix for your V8. It will thank you :)

Provari is the only vv mod I have ever tried. Of course I was able to try it from someone before I ordered it. That was a bonus. I am all for trying another if someone else owns it :) The only other condition that I would own a different one is if it were free :p


So you have no APV experience besides the Provari? It's awesome that it works so well!

The AGA is my first experience with a rebuildable. Why do you prefer the Bully or Phoenix?

I've never been a dripper, if that is what they are, and have no interest in getting into that. I'm primarily a cartotank kind of person.

Gotcha! I built a coil that tested at .9 ohms and I didn't even try it but now I am going to lol. Kind of like when I was a kid and my mom said don't touch that electric fence it will shock you - I had to try it just to make sure :oops:
It shocked me.

The Provari won't fire with anything under 1.

The reason I own one, as I am not a dripper either is to sample flavors. When I receive 10 different juice flavors I of course need to try them all. It is easy to wash out the Phoenix and pop another flavor in there. I do not like filling my AGA-T with a flavor only to discover I don't like it that much.
I daily vape from my glass tank. I use my Phoenix every day as well just to change up the flavor. Also when I DIY juice the Phoenix comes in handy ;-)

Being relatively new to rebuildables, I don't understand why this would be an issue. The beautiful thing about being able to build your own coil is that it can be made to any ohm or resistance to fit the device that will be powering it. My first coil is 1.5 ohm and works great on both the Silver Bullet and the Provari. I've always preferred a "cooler" vape with all of my delivery devices, so my next coil will likely be to build one with a higher ohm rating.

I don't understand it either but of course I am fairly new to this as well. However I simply must try it now just to see what all the fuss is about lol

I don't really have an all day vape flavor, so I was indecisive of what flavor to put into the AGA's tank. My favorite flavor niche are coffee flavors, but I didn't particularly like that in the AGA (granted, the coil had not had time to "season" yet). I removed it and put a mix of apple and red hot cinnamon juice in to try, and I'm loving it.

I have CE3's available to test new flavors in if I decide to sample a new flavor. However, since I have at minimum 10 cartotanks (the 2ml pyrex IBTanks) running simultaneously, I generally wait to try a new flavor until one of the tanks needs a new carto and then start a new cartotank setup with the new flavor.

The CE3's are not too different from the Phoenix or Fluxomizers which are CE2's.

Honestly, I like the bully on my V8, the Phoenix on my ZMax and eVic, and the Aga-T2 on my ZMax and iMotion.

You really don't have to be a dripper to enjoy dripping on the Phoenix, bully or Venus/Eternity. It's just easy.

You had me at coffee and lost me at apple and cinnamon. :facepalm:

I've been setting up my AGA with 5/6 wraps of 32ga, this has been right around 2.2ohms when done right, Which I can't seem to do yet, I had a buddy build it for me, he has smaller fingers as well as having all of them, seems to help for some reason:laugh:
For a cheap dripper I got one of these, OKC Vapes - Oklahoma's Premier Supplier of Electronic Cigarettes, E-Liquid, and Accessories! Hard to beat the price, it hits like a tank as it's set up, but it doesn't travel well, as I've learned! It leaks bad when carried in a pocket T!

I have the 510 XL CE2 Clear Cartomizers they were my favorite on the ego but not so much the Provari.

This is the Phoenix I am using. Phoenix Bully Rebuildable Atomizer w/ Extra Coil and Wick [gv-BullyAtomizer] - $10.95 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more

I like that better than my trivveca, like a mini tank!

As for what I've used, I started with Vapor4life cig alikes, then went with an Altsmoke BB, the I bought a Lava tube and within a couple of months of using that I ordered a Provari. I'm hoping to save up enough to get another one!

This vid explains how the vari and other protected devices limit high power low ohm atty's

No I never messed around with the Zmax and what not. Only ego's, reo's, and a Provari. I just put a new lr306 on, said 1.5 ohms.. We will see how long the vari likes it at 4 volts. Last 306 threw a few error codes including a E8.

Step up to a ZMax, it'll make you happy. Not that Smok one though.
