True.

I have a bunch of mechs and almost 20 of them are $5-15 FT clones. I don't think those would be too hard to get my money out of on CL if I ever decide to go a different direction or on the slim chance that vaping technology continues advancing.

I love my mechs as they will last almost forever, but I do think my Provaris will last as long as anything else out there with a chip.

We shall see.:)
We know Provari's last at least 5 yrs with no problems so we will find out in the future how long they really last :)

Hubby has been totally supportive of my vaping and all the money I'm spending but he really wants me to stay away from mechs. He used to be a firefighter and unregulated devices make him nervous. So, because he's such a nice guy I'm staying away from mechs.
I bought a bunch of Kick's for my few mech's as they give you short protection and regulate the mech.

    A V1 was recently sold on the classies and that had to be at least 6 or 7 years old. It was still working fine.

    Cool I missed that! When did they start selling?
    I think it was early 2010. I remember they came out right after all the hoopla where we got on the waiting list for the first vv, computer chip mod. It never made it and Provape got theirs on the market first.

    P3 will do .5, I think depends on how low you use. I tried sub ohm and don't know how vapers do that! It killed my lungs. Too painful.

    Right it says it can sub-ohm down to 0.5 ohm, then says 2.9 - 6.0 Volts or 3-20W. I never vape below 20W... but 6V on an 0.5 coil would be 72W. So I'm kind of confused as to what this devices recommended sub-ohm use it. I'm guessing 20W is the maximum recommended, in which case it doesn't do me much good.

    All I do is sub-ohm. It makes my lung sing! Different strokes...

    Maybe a Procyon or Radius would work I think Procyon is 50 watt and Radius in now available in 60 watt. Yes different strokes I think my lungs are just too old to take it LOL

    Yeah that's generally what I've determined. And I've also determined I can't order a few Radius before 12/31.

    Going to keep to the plan for now I guess. More Encom Voidrays, RX200's, Griffin 25's, and my first, second, and third Picos. That's the goal for 12/31. If we're still here doing this next spring and the court case doesn't look good I'll be looking at a few Radius.

    At the risk of angering the Provonati around here. You might check out the Therion by Lost Vape. I picked one up and love it. Paid about $116. It is super nice. Best vape I have ever had. So smooth hitting, it is super solid. I like it more than the BMI copper mod I just bought.

    Leather and wood grain? Whoa, that thing is sexy! And yes that could very well have just replaced the Radius on my wishlist.

    It is even better in person. I got the black and just really dig it. The quality of the build is just amazing. Awesome battery life, 2+ days at 55watts. Fits up to a 25mm atty.

    I have 4 other devices I use often that are collecting dust right now.

    At first I thought you only wanted rebuildables. If not, have you considered the Kabuki clones? I love them on the Vari's especially.
    :) I just looked it up for that poster. And thanks for the suggestion. :)

    Just went and checked it out. Really classy looking mod! I dig the dark leather one.

    If you decide you want 1 in the next couple of years, or even alittle longer than that, let me know. I'll hold onto at least 1 of them as an extra... :)
    What a nice offer! Sorry I forgot to thank you last night. I will keep it in mind. I keep hoping there will be a blem mini at that price & i can snag it. If not I may take you up on it.

    I remember story time nights :) :wub: Of coarse I'm serious about helping you with your DIY :) I'm still willing to bet once you get started with DIY you'll find it easier then you think ;) You have your Nic stash so for now you don't need to DIY yet so if you're not ready it can wait for a while longer :)

    Bedtime is one of my favorite times of the day. I love to read with kiddo. It's so special. Thank you grandmato5. I just hope I don't annoy you with tons of questions when the time comes. :) I know I'm probably overthinking it right now and and once I do it I'll be kicking myself for not doing it sooner. Haha
