One benefit is that Zen squishes an O-ring under the top cap to keep the board in place, so if the little glue dots fail, ( that is the only thing maintaining the boards position with ProVapes construction) the O-ring will keep the board in position. I personally have sent several ProVari's back to ProVape to have the boards re-glued...At 45$ and considering the possibility that it all might go away for us in the future, the HOH P3 upgrade is a worthy consideration.
My V2 ProVari was working fine, I changed the battery and it wouldn't turn on. I saw some flashes of the button when I was screwing the end cap on but then nothing.
That is what can happen when you don't perform periodic cleaning of the positive pin inside your ProVari. Upon inspection, mine was almost entirely black from carbon. I had been running a Genesis atomizer on it for a few months, and never once flipped it over to look inside. Did the old iso 99% cleaning and she's firing like new again

Good PSA. Thx. I have never cleaned the positive pin on any of my 12 Provaris. That shall change.My V2 ProVari was working fine, I changed the battery and it wouldn't turn on. I saw some flashes of the button when I was screwing the end cap on but then nothing.

I sent 3 to Provari for $22 each shipped. I IMed Zen but he didn't respond. Busy guy, I'm sure. I met him in Toronto and he is a great dude. I had a small window to have them shipped to me on Monday in NYC, So I figured ProVape was safe and I love their warranty service.
Really? ProVape received my 3 2.5's on a Monday and they shipped back to me the next day. Every time I have sent a Provari back for service, the turnaround was amazingly fast.
Iirc provape will do top caps on new purchases only. Zen is the authorized retrofit go to guy for all others.
Nope. Received 3 2.5's yesterday that I shipped to ProVape to have updated to P3. $22 each shipped.
$22 to ship, update and receive each? If that is true that is very reasonable.
Even if the service was slower then HOH it is worth the wait and price imo.
As long as they're IMR button tops, I've yet to find one that doesn't. What is happening when you put in the ones that don't work - no flashing as they're first put in and no display?
My first thoughts are whether they are fakes or the contacts are dirty, but there may be something else to look into.

How old are they? How old is the spring? When was the last time you cleaned the contacts on the batteries, the charger, the spring or the inside contact pin of your V2.5? What's the voltage of the batteries off the charger?
Replied to wrong post. Fixed below thanks to copy/paste. I suck.

2 1/2 years old but they worked the first time only, cleaned everything and still nothing, they work in other devices and 1 of them still work in my 2.5
Very strange. I don't know what to suggest except to mark the oddballs to identify them and use them in the other mods. Weird!
