| Have first hand experience on the Provari by Provape.com? Pretty expensive with all the bells and whistles, but more interested in the performane. Any feedback appreciated.
Thanks
Craig

| I don't Craig, but then again I don't need all the unecessary functions of that device, especially for their premium price.
A Buzz or Ipro is a much simpler and well constructed PV, just turn the wheel until your juice tastes good and away you go for 12 -15 hours of great vaping.

| I don't either craig but DM has one and he really likes his. You may could shoot him a PM and he could let you know about it or maybe he will stroll by here and give you some input.
I'm with Pit. The IPro I have is solid and works very well for me. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles but those aren't features I really need. It works well to keep me off the cigs but I only get 9-10 hours of vape time. That is with using DCs exclusively and pretty much constant vaping of at least 4-5ml a day, more if I'm stressed. |

That must get real expensive. |

| Ive been using it exclusively for about 4 months. Best 5/6 volt mod I've used in 3 years of vaping. No tech issues. Sturdy, quality construction.
If u vape a lot, and want it hot, get it.
Previously used puresmoker one silver bullet (x2) an the omega. |

But i would never stop, even at this point, cause the cartos, mods, and batts, cant be taxed, the juice, well ill just make my own, cause pv and vg and flavoring cant be taxed, and as far as nic, i am finally down to 18, and i am trying to get to 0 but i will never stop with the vapage.. |

| First hand experience right here, and yes it is an expensive Mod, however you have to make the decision on what is truly important to you.
For me, it was Solid Construction, Versatility to add anything with any connection I wanted including a huge a$$ MAP Tank and the ability to see what my Voltage was and what the Atomizer Ohms were without having to buy a Multimeter, (Combined, these last two things ruled out everything on the Market except the Provari because where the Darwin will show me the same stuff, it is very difficult to carry around with a MAP Tank on it and nothing else I know of will do all of these things and hold a MAP Tank Perfectly.)
Now if you do not want the LED readout feature and all the other little bells and whistles the I say pay less and go for a Buzz Pro, Infinity because they are less and have Equally Brilliant durability, Quality and Customer Service that is without a shadow of a Doubt Amazing in every sense of the Word.
That is my Take on it. Hope this helps out and if you have any questions about the Provari feel free to ask ask any time;
Happy Turkey Day!!

It is not heavy per say but it is much heavier than the Infinity as it takes a battery that is about twice the size and it is made with fairly thick walled metal. Extremely durable though kinda like the Buzz and Buzz Pro.

| The Body itself is the exact same length with the extended 18650 cap from end to end as my Ego 1100mah battery with the cone and no atomizer or carto and it is about twice as thick.

| If I go for another mod Id think I take a shot at the provari..I like the idea of stainless steel shell thats thick and a single large batt even though the efficiency might be a tad less then a switching step down regulator...how many amps can it handle in real life DM?

Nate aka Darth Vapor | Well I can't disagree... RY4 is super yummy!
You should be snoring good then soon. Just be sure to have something to catch the drool, that can get awful messy. I love oven roasted. That's how I do mine with rosemary.
I'm doing good. Hanging in there. |
