Quick question for all provari owners....

The best backup for a provari would be another provari, but if you couldnt get one (hypothetically) what other mod would you get instead?

I'm talking VV (and / or VW) rather than mechs. I already have a good mech and it's another VV device i am after. I'm considering the semovar, but if i go that route then it will be instead of another provari.

I have an evic as my current backup, but the threads are on their way out so i need a replacement. I'll almost certainly get another provari at some point (unless i get the semovar), but i would rather wait for the colour/led/size combination i want and get something else in the interim.

Any suggestions appreciated :)

My MVP 2 is my secondary device/backup, for now. It's the closest I've had to the Provari, as far as vape quality (still not Provari quality, but not bad), it seems to be pretty durable, and I can use it to charge my cell phone or iPod. Plus, it's pretty cheap (got mine for about $45, including shipping, from 101vape.com, but they're out of stock now). I'm getting a second Provari, so the two Provaris will be my first and secondary devices, with my MVP 2 serving as backup, just in case.

Savoir-Faire is everywhere!
That was the road I took too, but after my 2nd Provari (& maybe 3rd)...
I'm pretty sure I bought all three of my ProVaris within the same week or two....lol (maybe it just SEEMS that way) I know I bought the Reo in there, too.

I was completely nuts with too much money at hand, to be honest. I AM bipolar and that was definitely a manic time for me. They're very rare but can be quite fun at times....LOL

Depends on your budget. My first choice would be another ProVari, even a used one. If the budget is not there and you don't want to wait until it is... for a non mech I got really good 24/7 service out of my Sigelei Zmax V5 VV/VW before I bought my ProVari's. Bought it on the preorder last July really cheap, would use it again if I didn't have all my ProVari's.

I bought a standard sized one & got a Stealth Mini for a back up very, very quickly. A 3rd one might happen, especially if this v3 they've been hinting at is a VW mod. Otherwise the 2 others on my radar aren't any cheaper - the Semovar & a VV Reo Woodvil. An ePipe would be nice too. I'm just super picky about the woods on the Reo & Pipe.

I didn't want to have to face this decision, so I bought a used Provari. :)

Otherwise... good question. Nothing out there really appeals to me. I have heard decent things about the MVP2, but I don't like box mods.

That's exactly what I did less than a month after getting my 1st. It was a year old then now it's over 2 and still going strong!

I'm not bipolar, crazy maybe, but overindulgent is a definantly. I bought my 5 ProVari's over a 5 week time period. Now I know who to blame it on. ;)

My Vamo V5 seems to have no tread problems as reported by others on the earlier version. I've use many adapters and clearomizers/atomizers and not a hint of thread problems now since in a months constant use.
A whole month....wow. Good to know.

Maybe you can come back and give us a third, sixth and ninth month update, okay?
