Still using ProVari's. Tanks: Kabuki since it was released, Cerotanks with the little Aspire BVC coils, Kanger Subtank Mini using the Aspire little BVC coils, (yes, they do fit and work wonderfully!) , HOH Z Attie Pro ( Genesis tank), cyclone dripper, Igo-L dripper, Nautilus 2, Nautilus, Aspire Triton mini with Nautilus coils...there's a few other atties in the stash...Russian 91's, if you look you can find something that will fit your needs :)

I've tried the kabuki but it was no match to the kfl plus, it didn't have the th that I like and the flavor was very muted. I've tried my brother's aspire nautilus and it didn't have the th either. How are the builds on the ZAP, do you find it easier than the 91% russian?

I find it easy enough to build on the ZAP, but I am a Gennie heretic, I use cotton wicking, and hog out the wick hole for better juice flow. I get dripper like flavor from mine, they are a little more finicky than the 91's, but for coil gunkers, it is worth the effort. I can pull some wick when it gets gunked and keep on vaping, when the wick gets short it is time for a dry burn and re-wick. It was definitely a learning curve when I first tried them though...

I like my kfl at 2.2 ohms, I've read a lot of posts about 1.5-1.8 ohms, I guess I'll have to try that and see what difference it makes.

I run up to that high too. I'm not very particular, as long as I get it up to 1.5 or more (due to amp limit). Where it lands, I vape it.

Me! Provari Classic with a KayFun mini V3 that leaks a bit. lol

Got my radar out for another tank someday, but it's not enough to drive me nuts until I can find another that suits me. Still love the Classic, though.
I wish I would have gotten a classic when provape was still open. I wish I would have stocked up on a lot of minis too, those are probably my favorite. I still regret not jumping on $20 and $30 minis when I had the chance.

The Classic isn't that much different from the Provari V.2.

The main differences are:
The Classic has variable wattage, whereas the V.2 doesn't. I bought into the idea that VW is better than VV, but I'm not sure it makes a significant difference.

The Classic is flat at the top instead of curving inward where the atty attaches. Not a huge deal, but the straight form factor makes it look more uniform.

The Classic can accommodate a lower ohm atty, but not lower than 1 ohm, I think. Since I use 1.5 or above, this doesn't affect me, whether I use the V.2 or the Classic.

The Classic has different button colors from which to choose, not a consideration for me. It's kind of cutesy for the different colors to cycle through when changing batteries, but that's a non-issue in my case.

One thing I really like about the Classic is that the battery life shows up on the display after every vape, different from having to go into the menu to see it.

All that said, the Provari V.2 and the Classic both offer the same smooth, reliable vape experience. I paid full price for a couple of my V.2s and the Classic and then bought several other V.2s when they went on sale. I gave away three to family members who are not currently using them. :( I now have one Classic and about four V2.s. I wish I had bought more V.2s when they were cheap and available!

The ProVari 2.5 can go down to .9 ohms, not sure what the classic's specs are though.

I rarely vape my ProVari. It's like a nostalgia only thing. I toss the Russian 91% on there, another nostalgia only thing, and build to around 1.5 ohms, vape a tank, then put it away for another six months or so.
