... and there's a SALE? I mean, if it's on sale, I have to buy it... it's like I'm saving money.

You will save money by going straight to the good stuff. You won't regret getting a ProVari. After getting a blem mini and seeing how good it was, I bought a full size, too. Go for the gusto.

I am 30 minutes away from ordering ProVari :)

Question: As a first time user, I pretty much have to order the kit for $211.95, because I would not save anything by ordering separately or from another site, right?

Not necessarily.. you can get a silver blem for $140 shipped. I buy my batts at rtdvapor or supertmanufacturing.. both have good prices and shipping is only a couple dollars. I bought my xtar charger from ebay for around $20 shipped

So you can do the math to see if it would be worth it to piece it out or just get the kit

You're lucky! :) I will need to explain my wife how this metal cylinder for more than $200 supposed to help me quit analogs and what vaping is to begin with.

Hubby has been vaping for 3 years, started with something like Blu, then to whatever he was able to get via China and now egos. I'm always looking for something different/new and with gadgets and gizmos. I'm kind of a geek. LOL. But yeah, he knows what vaping is and how I am with my gadgets. LOL

Let me guess... it's in your cart right now and you're just sitting there staring at it LOL Your husband is definitely a keeper! Mine says the same thing to me :D

Yeah... I keep adding one to my cart, taking it out... adding the other. Sigh. Okay, so I can't just buy the blem right because it doesn't come with a charger, et al? I can use my ego threaded clearomizers (I really really really like my ProTank and T3) on them, yes?

What is "a blem?"

This is the blemished Provari that's in the clearance...



Blem ProVari Satin Silver V2 - Limited Time Only, while supplies last.

ProVari Satin Silver Blem Sale

These are all brand new units.

During the manufacturing process there was a small scratch or spot on the tube that we didn't like, or there was a nick or small mark on the LED display that didn't pass our quality control team.

If you don't mind a small scratch, slightly darker or lighter logo, or small blemish on the LED display, then its a great opportunity to save some money.

These discounted ProVari are only being offered for a limited time, while supplies last.

They come with a full one year warranty on the electronics. These are sold "as is" and cannot be returned for refund or exchange.

We are providing you a discount on this item in exchange for the scratch, nick, dimple, light or dark logo. We cannot provide photo's of each tube as the blems are very small and don't show up on camera.

They are 'blemished' mods that come out. The one I ordered had a scuff on the end cap. I haven't seen anybody post one that has shown up with a super ugly blemish.

They can't use anything that has the eGo skirt without an adapter, and your correct, the blems come bare-bones (no batteries or charger) as do any of the provaris (bar the starter kit) unless you add them at time of purchase.

you would need the ego-510 adaptor to use your ego threaded devices. Surevapes has it here for $2.99 and free shipping over $5 you can get batts at rtdvapor and an xtar charger from ebay or actually rtdvapor has it for the same $20..

scratch that.. the 18490 batts are out of stock at both rtdvapor and supertmanufacturing right now. :(

But they come in and out of stock all the time. 2 18490 batts and the xtar charger would be around $40 shipped.. so you would save around $30+ if you pieced it out.

I am vaping Blu as I type this :) - I got a bunch of disposables (Blu, V2 and NJOYking) to see if vaping is for me, and decided to skip the eGo-C route and go for the ProVari. P.S. I know BLUs do not get a lot of love around here, but from the disposables I have tried thus far, it seems to be the best of the bunch.

Ah, okay... it's 510 threaded... I have like 10 windows open and an itchy credit card... LOL! Going to think about what I want just do it already :)

LOL.. when I decided to get a second (black) provari.. I lay in bed that night, not being able to sleep and finally got up at around 2am and ordered it. I'm doing the same thing right now with a certain mechanical mod.. but it went out of stock (not sure if that's a good or bad thing) :blush:

Provari is a excellent choice! I fiddled with other battery's for 3 months and attys spent well over $150 that are now my back ups.

In my experience the ego twist has served it's purpose as a gate way to the vaping world and helped with the learning curve.

The provari a standard in the industry. A pv that you will have for a very long time.

I love my provari I got used to the one button very quick. I went through 400 plus bucks only to find and love my provari. It does everything I need it to do and does not feel cheap like my evic. Tough reliable and function all in my mod. Next mod will be the provari mini. I never understood the variable watts on my evic so I don't miss it.

I took the long route.. I went from the mall kit, to the 510, to the ego, to box mods and finally got a provari a year into vaping. Now I have 3. I'm kinda glad I went up the ladder so to speak.. I don't know if I would have been able to truly appreciate what I have now. I did try to go the cheap route and bought a lavatube when they first came out... sold it quickly and went for the provari and glad I did. No.. it's not for everyone. I respect those that enjoy their vamos and v/zmaxs.

Chargers are cheap the battery's are cheap I got the ext cap for mine so I can use 18650 well worth it I get about 50 hrs out of one charge. The provari is worth the price and more. The build quality is amazing feels great in my hand. I even named her. Never did that for a mod before. Ever. Nerd love here 100%.

Oh, hey, noting but love for that style. It got hubby to stop smoking, but it was brute force I think because he didn't find them as satisfying. He's done REALLY well. I "quit" 17+ years ago, but kept picking it up. I've got chronic pain from a back issue (surgery this Summer likely) and the pain meds make me crave nicotine for some reason, always have, so I told him to let me use one of his rigs... now I'm addicted. Sigh. Toys.

LOL... I'm getting ready to pop over and order the damned thing. I'll make sure I post my "I bought it!" post ;)

Nerd love here 100%.

Between the husband, myself and our two kids (10 and 12), my house is one big gadget, I swear.
