Why no user upgradable firmware?
That's the same market Evolv, Yihi, Dicodes and other respected manufacturers are targeting. There's one big difference however. A board form Evolv or Yihi is suited for both beginners and experienced vapers. Someone who starts out with a ProVari and wants to move up has to buy a new device... -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
Yes. Ever heard of pre-build nickel and titanium coils? These are available for most tanks. So apparently you think the competition is going to sit still and stop innovating. -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
No, it's not a marketing gimmick, it works. The SX350J was tested publicly during a trade show with a system from FLIR and was shown to be very accurate. It's what experienced vapers want, why else would we all flock to these devices? It seems to me you understand the market as well as Provape... -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
It doesn't matter what degree you have or how awesome your product is. If it doesn't meet the needs of the of the market you are going to go out of business. Right now Provape is a niche company and if they want to stay around they will have to expand their portfolio. Right now the market is... -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
That's true, a lot of junk comes out of China. I would say that at the moment there are 3 great chips. Those made by Evolv, the ones made by Yihi and the chips in the P3. Out of those 3 only Yihi and Provape also produce complete mods. I own a mod by both makers and I can tell you the SX Mini is... -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
They can use the same connector they use now to connect the board to the programmer and a USB connection on the other end. -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
I didn't say Provape deserves to die. I said that if Provape cannot adapt to a fast evolving vaping market and they go out of business as a result, that's what they deserve. I mean, there was a time when Provape was a big player and people always recommended their products. Now they're just a... -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
The positive contact on the board is also a direct connection to the chip, otherwise they wouldn't be able to update it. User upgradable firmware only requires a different connection protocol and a cable with a connection the the P3 board and a USB connection on the other end. It's the same for... -
Hana One, convertible single/dual 18650 DNA40
I wonder how long the connection on the battery housing to the control module will last? Those two little tabs on the battery housing don't look very strong. -
EU The TPD means nothing
China has nothing to do with it. The thing is government officials and people at health organisations have been fighting against smoking for decades. The just can't stand the fact we found a better alternative, it gets their blood boiling. They actually think they have the right to dictate...- Lemwise

Why no user upgradable firmware?
I remember reading the programmer costs €200. I can also see that the cable on the left is used to connect the unit via USB with a PC. I'm guessing the programmer holds the actual software that writes the firmware to the flash memory on the ProVari chip. Connect the programmer to a PC, send a... -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
If you look at this picture of the ProVari programmer you can see the part that screws onto the ProVari. It shows that the battery connection doubles as a data port. They could've made the same cable with a USB connection on the other end, so the user can connect the device to a PC. Assuming the... -
Why no user upgradable firmware?
So why exactly doesn't Provape do user upgradable firmware? What's the reasoning behind this? To me this is an ancient way of doing things but maybe there's a good reason? -

SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)
I'd be happy with SS and Ti. It's a lot easier to build with than Ni200 and I can get grade 1 Ti for free through a contact at work. -
SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)
I've been in contact with a rep from Yihi because I wanted to know if they have plans to support other wires with the sx350j. She told me their engineers are working on it and they hope to release an update at the end of July or August. She also told me they're not only looking into titanium but... -
SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)
He hasn't responded to me either. It seems he doesn't want our business. Not that it matters anymore because I found a leather guy nearby where I live. He's going to make a brown leather skin for me with a belt loop. -
What are you vaping right now??
MBV Strawbana. It's a great strawberry/banana mix. -
SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)
I sent him a message yesterday but so far nothing. If he doesn't want my business then screw him. I'll find someone else to make me a leather skin. -
DNA 200 Watt
That's not going to happen. Users will still want a choice. And what about all the tube mech mods? Companies aren't going to stop making those. There will always be a market for 18650's.
