It's a Provape Radius. In black of course. I love it. 
It's sporting a kanger subtank right now. I buy Provape because they last, and they are made here in the US. I bought all those china mods and one by one they have keeled over in less than a year. My provaris never die. With the zombies looming, I wanted a Radius because Provape can fix it if it ever fails.
I'm using no added PG House, a 1.1 coil and 10 watts this morning.
Our pool was at 73 yesterday, I haven't looked yet today. *sigh*
Victor skinned an elbow so I put salve, a gauze pad, and a bit of vet wrap to hold it in place. Now he can't walk.

Although I think Provari's are a bit overpriced, I also like that they are USA made, and the customer service is excellent! I have several regular ones, from v1.1 to whatever, a P3 and a Radius. None have failed me! 
My little window AC unit is working its heart out, and it's still 83 in here. Thankfully the one at work is working very well. I feel sorry for the carriers, they had 5 guys call out sick yesterday (guessing it was because of the heat index).

Good luck! I also live on a training route, I'm constantly getting mail for the people one street over with the same house number. (123 Their Street vs. 123 My Street)
SAME EXACT THING !!!!!!!
WTF, how do I get OFF the "training route" as if one more of FV's vape mails to my wife gets MIS-delivered, she may go postal !!!!!!! (pun intendned)....
Ian texted me yesterday, DIL wasn't paying attention and put her battery in upside down. He said it was SUPER hot, but he caught it before it totally nuked.
Obviously ALL the Provaris (and the IPV4/5's) do it.

Wow wow WOW, I DO like the look of the Radius. I had a limited edition chrome Provari v. 1 forever, and YES it dealt with every DROP, CRASH, and BANG and never gave up. I think after a few years however the firing button started to give me problems, and not sure why I didn't sent it back for repairs. Regardless of price quality IS quality, and they have it in spades. Maybe that works against my "probably overpriced" statement. Now that I've moved on from cartos (still use as backup), I've found that having a dual 18650 mod allows me to vape all day with no hassles. I drive all day so having to worry about spare batts, doesn't thrill me, so onto the IPV4 I went. If Provari would come out with a dual batt mod, I'd surely go back.
FV, since you're out in WI, you been watching what is going down in Milwaukee ??
CLARIFICATION:
Guess I forgot to mention WHY exactly I was pushing away to rebuildables over my tried, true, and battle tested carto/Phiniac tank (NOT sub-ohm) seutp. Well, the whole FDA thing has me a bit nervous, and I didn't want to get jammed up if one day they ban devices, cartos, atomizers, etc. Figured I better learn how to rebuild simple coil/ cotton setups so I could stock up a bit. Didn't want to wake up, NEED some cartos, and see they are no longer legal and have to start rebuilding under duress.
I've always stayed FAR away from anything rebuildable regardless if it was a tank, dripper, or whatever, just didn't really care for the "hassle", leaking, etc. But now that I've been doing it for a bit, it surprises me how LITTLE hassle it is.
Pros:
Much better flavor than cartos or any atomizer that I've tried.
Can stock up on very cheap wire and cotton, plenty of stash.
Drop NIC waay down due to increase vapor.
ZERO wicking issues regardless of ANY amount of VG.
Cons:
Uses more juice (need to build a House Blend pipeline).
Have to learn how to make coils.
At least with mine (Steam Crave RDTA) leaks when lying on it's side.
Requires higher quality batteries (already bought them for Provari).
Drains batteries faster, dual batts. resolves this.
FV refuses to sell me House Blend in one gallon jugs.

My favorite Provari's are the chrome ones!
I haven't given my son/DIL any Provari's because they like to subohm. but I have given DIL an IPV4. Not a clue which mod she was using for the battery issue?
My personal favorite mod is the iStick 100w TC, dual 18650 in parallel. Battery life is awesome, and you don't have to worry about marrying the batts. And relatively inexpensive.
Nope, haven't been keeping up with Milwaukee, but I'll go look. I can guess what neighborhood and what happened though. ugh. The reasons that I moved Sonny out of there are legion....
Sonny went subohm and is building now. He keeps his(mine) Provari, tank and cartos for emergencies.

Bamz, you know your mods.
I can attest the the IPV series will NOT even power up with reversed batts.Didn't want to be the negative Nancy, just seems it's "on fire" at the moment, saw a video of one of the rioters stating, "The rich aren't giving us enough money..............."
This, on both.

Copy that Drott, I was confused. Most times people seem to have PG reactions. To be fair, when I FIRST started trying to build ALL of the juices I had were heavy PG, and heavy NIC 18mg +, put it in the tank, cursed making coils (until after about 3 tries, now very easy), vaped it, and it was very harsh, couldn't even vape. First I blamed the setup, wondering how in the hell anyone could vape like this. Read up, found much lower NIC was now needed. Ordered some, BUT, went to high VG, so I cannot attest to higher PG with lower NIC in these setups.
You're not asking me this right?
I'm completely lost in another dimension with all the new vape stuff that is out. I found found what I like and rarely deviate from it. I use aspires. Easy peasy. Ii have two Isticks and one istick wanna be. I have two twists and a couple of regular egos for emergencies.
A pool would be nice here. I bet Apollo would love it. Fiona would not. If it's raining outside she'll go to the corner of the porch then turn around and come right back inside. Ruger is indifferent to it.
What's going on in Milwaukee? I live under a rock when it comes to current news. Well except for the local stuff like the poor lady that got her house broken into last week and they broke both her arms and one of her hands, beat her up, then set her on fire. Scary. This happened literally about 4 minutes from my house.
Guess who has a ruptured eardrum....again....in the opposite ear as before? Who could possibly have that kind of luck.
Yep, your guessed it......me. It happened last last night and bled and drained pretty much all night onto my pillow. The other ear is pretty much closed but stiill red but still have some hearing loss on that side. So my hearing is messed up a little on the rigwht and now I can hear jack from my left rear. Well, I here you as long as you look at me and talk slowly a lttle louder than normal. Looks like another couple of months to heal up. I have an ottoscope here and had Morgan look at the left ear and she said it was definitely ruptured and looked pretty big but can't tell from all the blood. Great! There is nothiing a doctor can do because it has to heal on it's own but just takes a couple of months No point going to the doctor about it since I know what he'll say. I accidentally got water in it in the shower this morning and good God, it hurt like hill.
Tomorrow I work. The swelling in my hand from the bite the other day is finally going down.
I hope everyone's weekend was good and your luck better than mine.

Our pool would be lovely if it ever reached swimming temps. grrrrrr.
Milwaukee had a riot (I refuse to call it a protest because it's not) because some idiot ran when he was pulled over. He then pulled a gun on the cop, refused to drop it, and was shot by the cop. So idiots started burning down their own neighborhood in a hissy fit. The destroyed 5 businesses, and multiple cars. The sheriff is a good guy, he called the governor who sent the National Guard to keep it from happening again. I fail to understand burning your neighborhood and the businesses in it. I guess the cop was supposed to just get shot by the 5x loser that was aiming at him.
There was no riot for the 3 deaths that took place last week in the same neighborhood because no cop was involved. Go figure.
OMG, that poor woman! Is she going to make it?
I took the bandage off Victor's leg. He limped for a few minutes until he realized that it was gone. What a goober.

Damn Tiff, if it weren't for bad luck, you'd have no luck at all. {{{HUGS}}}

Seems to be there has been a lot of things like this lately.
Last I heard she was still in critical condition in a hospital down that has a burn unit. I don't know what would possess someone to do such a thing. I do know they have arrested three in connection with it. That poor lady is 83 years old. They asked for money and she gave them what little she had in her wallet and they still did that to her.
