It does slightly bug me that all vaping gear seems to arrive in a plain Jiffy bag, with nothing from the manufacturer about warranties and returns. All I have to prove I bought the Provari is an email from the vendor.

How long does it work for when you unscrew the cap? According to provape, it's a converter problem. I would say it does it a couple of times an hour when in moderate use. Takes a second to rectify it and carry on. The Provari is still in warranty (6 months old) and I contacted uk e-cigs where I bought it to find out about getting it repaired under warranty-however as we all know they don't respond to customers... I can't really be bothered with the hassle of getting it sorted to be honest, especially as my V2.5 is waiting for me at the sorting office. |

No bites for the Provari yet. Will take £70 due the E5 error, which can be a pain, but just requires a quick unscrew and screw back on of the battery cap to get things going again.

I'll tell you what you definitely mustn't do-put one in the pocket of your North Face jacket where you forgotten you had put a metal chain......

I think some people will happily vape on a packed train just so they can have a pretty solid argument. Fair play to them, however it will ruin things and I doubt those same people will be bovered. I occasionally vape on a platform that ain't busy or a cheeky half empty train carriage. But I think that m6 fiasco will be the excuse the operators need to justify banning it when the complaints come in. prodematley from smokers looking to jack it in. By the staircase on Platform 3, Charing Cross? |

I'm selling a Provari, but only because my new one should arrive tomorrow. The Vamo doesn't often see the light of day, to be honest. It's a good device, but I only have a small rucksack.......

Forgot to mention, the Provari has the extended end cap, also in white.

Ah. That's a bit awkward if I don't have a clue how much they are worth! Okay, £90 for the Provari, £60 for the Penny, £140 for both. If those are well over the odds, I'll take the nearest offer (which kind of defeats the object of the rule I would have thought.) |

It's time to part company with my faithful Provari Mini in white(6 months old). As you can see from the pics, she's had a bit of a hard life-pretty scratched and scuffed and the end cap doesn't quite fit flush following a drop. There is also an intermittent 'E5' error which goes when you unscrew the battery cap and screw it back on. All in all, it's still more than useable and would make a good back up/'take to work' workshorse. Also includes the extender end cap.   I I genuinely don't know how much to ask for these so, assuming it is within the rules, will listen to offers for either/both. Price will include first class postage to within the UK. Cheers. |

Got one of these today and well impressed. Loads of flavour and TH and best of all, you can adjust the draw on it. I like it so much, the Penny may be relegated to back up.

Alba! Their minimum postage is nearly £4.00! I don't get it, I posted elsewhere on here about it. Are they actually trying to stop people ordering? Have they had stuff go missing? They do a massive role of kanthal for £8.00 and loads of other stuff I want but there is no way on earth I'm paying £4.00 minimum postage! Chris. It's annoying, especially as as I'm particularly partial to their fruity flavours and was trying a different one every month. I'm not doing it any more though-almost as annoying as the high cost is the 2 mile drive to pick the stuff up. |

I bought a Vamo recently, mainly because dropping the Provari a couple of times (it didn't break of course) made me realise that I really needed a back up device.
Head to head, using a Vivi Nova on both, they both seem to perform in exactly the same way, so value for money wise The Vamo is excellent. Build quality and ridiculous size however means that it will remain in the cupboard marked "break glass in case of emergency".

Sorry to go waaaay off topic, but by my count this forum now has Rotherham United, York City and Cambridge United fans as members. Clearly, Vaping and rubbish football goes hand in hand. YEAH But our seasons going up in smoke Again -Unlike me !  Shame, our visits to The Abbey were a rare highlight during our miserable stint in The Conference and I'd love to see you lot back in The League. |
