Yeah that new lifetime warranty is a definite plus for sure. Hope you enjoy yours too slowdrag.

Ok quick first impression review of my provape 1 v2
1. fit and finish- on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being best i give a 10. There were no funky scratches or tool marks.
2. switch - I will give it a 10 also. Easy to push but firm its just the right size has fired every time. The 16 second cutoff works as advertised and is no hype.
3. endcaps- get a 8. The top drip ring could be a little larger maybe .030 per side and still have plenty of stock left. The bottom endcap is fine like it is.
4. lenght and weight - I give it a 10 This unit fits nicely in shirt pocket without being so heavy that it makes your shirt hang to one side.
I think provape puts out a excellant product at a fair price. I have a lr cartomizer with drip tip and this pv puts out tons of vapor. I roll my eyes when I see another vendor come out with another plastic mod. Do yourself a favor and spend the couple extra bucks on a pv thats well built like the provape.

Well put slowdrag. Hope it brings you as much satisfaction as mine has brought me 
I second slowdrag on the plastic thing....metal mods are so much more durable and the ProVape works every time! Great slim-line 3.7v PV! 
I just wanted to say... I LOVE my provape. I received it about June 30th and it's great. No descriptions of it have been exaggerated. It's solid, reliable, portable without a bulky feeling. It's just awesome.
Unfortunately, two weekends ago, it followed me into a pool.
Drunk friends. I did learn to tell everyone goodbye BEFORE I put my cell phone and Provape in my pocket to leave.
Anyway, I emailed them and they replied quickly and told me to send the PV back. For a very nominal fee, they are replacing the circuitry and top cap to the latest version and it should be here by weeks end.
Not only is the unit top-notch, so are the people involved. Best purchase I've made so far in this journey.

Oh man... that sucks about getting shoved in the pool with it
Good news on the rest of it though.

lol... it sucks but when you play with fire... you end up in the pool?
Anyway... w00t!! I got my PV back today and I'm back in vaping harmony with the universe (actually I have a nicotine headache but that's my fault lol).
Works better than ever and I've been dripping on a LR atty so it's pretty intense. Love it.
Thank you whiskey and I hope you enjoy yours as much as the rest of us enjoy ours
even better news there skri. Yeah my most satisfying vape yet has been using this with an LR atty with the bridge and wick removed and dripping with a Ttip. Awesome flavor, warmth, and amounts of vapor

I am sure that this it the next PV that I buy.
The Joye 510 was good for start on. I love my 510 usb passthrough it is at 5v I am always at a computer. Moved up to another disposable kit witch is ho-hum at 600mha.
I am going to stop throwing away money on kits and get something long lasting.
I hope they have a 5v model soon. The usb passthrough really hits my sweet spot. Ya ya LR attys, but I have not tried them yet.
Does anything light up on the ProVape? (LED wise)
Thank you for this review, I was already looking at their website before I read this.

It's definitely a good reliable choice Thunder.
No there is no LED on the ProVape-1 at all.
I know they've been working on a PT at ProVape and I look forward to seeing what they come out with for that and other devices in the future.
OH and yes the LR attys perform very well on the ProVape.

... glad you like it whiskey. I actually had to take a look at the site before commenting just to be sure so since I'm already there : ProVape: Terms and Conditions
Looks like the answer would be yes.
Has anyone had switch problems with the Provape?
The protege or prodigy were my first choices, but then I found all kinds of
posts about problems with them.

Heartisan obviously the forum is a big place, and not everyone who owns one uses the forum, so it's possible there has been a post I've missed but I personally can not recall seeing any posts at all about anyone having a problem with this switch.
After almost 5 weeks of heavy use, my Provape decided it needed a vacation in the Great Northwest.
Yesterday it just stopped firing. I did all the usual-battery, atty, different adapter with other atty, clean threads, other batteries, brand new atty, clean battery contacts, check spring, the usual suspects.
Email to David at ProVape got response within the hour. He recommended everything that I had tried already except to reseat the battery contact in the adapters. They had floated down away from the atty, but reseating did nothing to help.
He asked for a phone # and called me to troubleshoot. A+ for customer service. It seems that I have one of the last version 1 units shipped. It may have been an atty short, without a meter I can not diagnose that. (note to self, get a multimeter)
David had me send it in for diagnosis and repair. He is going to put a new board in to upgrade the switch to version 2 which among other things has short protection built in. If you have an atty that shorts out, it will not affect the switch, it just will not work. I admit that I do not see how an atty that shorts out will possibly work on another device, but I will take David's word for it. With all the switching to see what was going on, I have no idea exactly which atty I was using.
These things can happen. What makes a difference is the response of the vendor. David stands behind his product and is responsive to issues that come up. Because of other personal issues, this was not what I wanted to deal with yesterday, but all will be well. Waiting for repair is a drag, but I have backup and hopefully Little Chuck will be here tomorrow.
I hope this is not from the Provape getting jealous with a brother on the way.
