    Mature Vapors (Immature ones too!)

    VaperCon was a blast. I was amazed at the numbers. I think Santa brought the coolest toys down from the North. I got to hold a the SideWinder for the first time and those elves are just amazing. What a great time!

    I haven't insulted you elmattias. If I were to insult you I'd say something like "dang its funny to watch to see what this idiot might post next". I didn't say anything like that though.

    Baditude, My intent was simply to point out that folks can easily see that first comment as snubbing anything that isn't a provari. I thought it was amusing that you posted that and started the thread I linked to.

    Says the one that doesn't know that SS is lighter than brass and doesn't know that the Provari has its own flaws such as higher vampire drain. And last but not least, seems to be fighting a war that is amusing since nobody cares. See we both can do that....

    Elmattias, The statement wasn't for you. I know you think this thread that you highjacked is for your war on anything not provari. I intended my statement to the poster sepulse. But by all means continue the war...

    I really can't wait to see some mods based on the Evolv DNA20d. I would like a Darwin but those aren't readily available. The competition and rate of innovation is accelerating and its really exciting to think of what we might have available in 6-12 months. Maybe sooner?

    I feel that if you tried VW you'd find it easier and more reliable way to jump to something you already like. I don't think VW is the end all be all. In fact I'd love a device that read the temperature of the media and you could record your preferences like a quick dial. That would be...

    Schooled? hmm. I thought I was the one that had to explain that Stainless Steel is lighter than chrome coated brass... Update: Now the post has been changed to say it was a double post but its obvious that elmattias believes he has schooled you Kiwi. I'm not sure what you learned.

    I love the VW and I never touch it. I run my Zmax at 6.5 and I switch to a Vivi, a phoenix, a Rainbow, Eternity, Kanthal, NiChrome, and all my juices are great. I fiddled with it when I got it but once I found my number at 6.5 I don't touch it. Well, that's mostly true. I do jack it up when...

    The vampire drain isn't going to drain your battery in a day. My comment was intended to infer it wouldn't be a good idea to leave a battery in any mod and go on vacation. Even though the Zmax drains at a lower level it still drains. So maybe it would take the Zmax 10 times as long to...

    Stainless Steel is lighter than chrome coated brass. If you have some of the lower grades of SS then it might get heavier than Brass but I would suspect it is a Stainless over brass sleeve. Density of brass: 8440-8730 kg/m^3 Density of stainless steel: 7480-8000 kg/m^3 Source...

    Thanks for that link! I had seen these before from a couple of places but I had misplaced the link. I believe those numbers are as dead on as I would expect. I find it interesting that the Provari has ten times idle vampire drain of the battery over the Zmax. This is a good reason not to...

    I've worked with Stainless Steel for 25 years and the Zmax I have is 304/A2 steel. Vape TV just did a review of the accuracy last week and the end statement was there wasn't a significant difference between the accuracy of the Zmax vs.the Provari. Lots of people have put the v2 Zmax through...

    Look, I don't know what the color of the sky is in your world. I'm not debating you. You are attacking me for posting my opinion. Obviously you have a problem with the Chinese. Why would I care if the "*max" devices were knockoffs of the provari? Again, I own a Zmax and I am happy with my...

    That's a real nice looking mod. I love Titanium. Anyone know if it can take a kick?

    Wow that's just offensive in some ways, then I think it is sad or even humorous. I mean you really think that there are only two kinds of people on this forum? I have no interest in the Provari today though, that could change if they add VW to the device. I think there is a limited number of...

    All of this because I said I liked my Zmax? I mean, really? Do you have an axe to grind? You might consider going up on your NIC level. I posted I liked my Zmax and it is obviously my opinion. I have also found it to be worth the price and the quality meets my expectations. You...

    The same can be said for the Zmax v2 here in the US. Madvapes has them for 90.00 USD and you can get 10% off of that. With 80-90.00 being the current price it is easily half the price of the provari. I don't have a problem with the provari but I can easily buy 2 Zmax devices for one of...

    With the numbers of Zmaxs sold I expect there will be plenty of feedback on that topic. I've had mine coming up on 2 months so we only have 4 more months to go before I can answer. What makes you think it is susceptible to failure? I've seen your sentiment posted by many in several places...
