New mods announced

Silo LE mods listed

2153As mentioned in the last update, we have posted all of our available Limited-Edition anodized Silo mods here. There are a couple of completed mods available as of this writing but due to the time constraints of meeting the FDA deadline, many mods have a lead time. Please be aware of any potential lead time when ordering. Due to FDA regulations we may not be able to do custom runs like this again.

Limited Edition Mods

Other DIY products

We are offering a few additional DIY products:

DNA-75D/200D/250D faceplates

Custom Silo case buttons

Evolv board (re)stocking … soon

We are currently short on DNA-200s, but we expect resupply shortly. Supply of DNA-60 and DNA-250s remains extremely limited. As they trickle in we may post some boards for sale, so stay tuned. DNA-75 boards remain in stock and ample supply.

Status 8/1: DNA60 preorder live, more LE silo mods, countdown to regulation

Evolv DNA 60 available for preorder

DNA60 RenderingEvolv is releasing the DNA 60 ahead of the FDA regulatory deadline so producers can get the very latest boards into products before time runs out. The DNA 60 is now available for preorder from Protovapor. We are working with Evolv to get the boards shipped out as soon as possible. We do plan to stock this and any other Evolv boards available during the FDA regulatory grace period.

More Silo LE mods coming

2143-2We have received a batch of stunning anodized Silo mods which we will be listing shortly here. There are a couple of completed mods available as of this writing but due to the time constraints of meeting the FDA deadline, additional mods will probably list with a lead time. Please be aware of any potential lead time when ordering.

Limited Edition Mods

Countdown to regulatory Armageddon

As you should be aware, the vapor industry is facing a major regulatory deadline in the Aug. 8 enactment of FDA rules that were released earlier this year. Protovapor intends to have several all-new device models and other products as of this deadline, so we can continue to serve the vaping community into the future. We expect to be extremely busy in the short term and as a result may incur additional delays on repairs and other services. Please bear with us as we need to complete certain regulatory steps to guarantee that we will continue to exist.
