And tomorrow, when I attend a small vape meet, I am already ready for those who will undoubtedly look at my *several* Provis and say........ "Wow! A Provari. Haven't seen one of THOSE in a long time! People still use those?"


Anyone got a great comeback? ;)

You know...........if you had a Radius, maybe they would come up to you and go, "Oh wow......that's cool, can I see it?!"

Just sayin........;)

Since you won't have one with you, just ask whoever chides you, "how many mods have you purchased and at what investment since (insert the date you bought the mod you're holding) and then just laugh and laugh and laugh" :lol: Or, just tell them to go :censored: themselves. That works as well......

Problem, stanley? The only one I see is that you don't have it in yer hands yet!

ZK lover, me.

Huge time.
Haha - can't wait to get em! The more I thought about it, I was like why the heck not! Durable and will look good - how could I go wrong??

With the 10% off, I may just go with a stealth Radius. But I can't make up my mind whether I want the regular button (and the LED goodness - whatever it may be) or if I want the solid black.

I really wish they had a smoke tinted button that would still show the LED either through it or around the edge.

Bits scrambled by Tapatalk on my Nexus 6...
I thought for awhile on this. I definitely never really see the LED buttons. Ever. It's really just when I plug it in. Like the split second I plug it in and see the light go on... I will slightly miss it, but not much.

Smoke buttons are a wonderful idea!

Not sure I get the whole "I want the old (insert model) menu back". Am I the only one that opens a Radius box, plops in a battery, sets watts to 8.2, screws my Kabuki on, and NEVER gives the menu another thought....ever? I find this is the very reason I continue to buy these products. Perfection. My battery lasts all day. I plug in when I bed down for the night, wake up, and it's the exact perfect vape again the next morning when I take my first pull. The only time I ever even take notice of the display is when I drop a new coil in and I want to check to make sure the ohms are at least close to what the box says hehe. So they give us a virtually perfect everyday vaping device that is fire and forget and some want to go backwards from that? Have fun, enjoy the pointless tinkering, and stay off them analogs. Me? I'm enjoying vaping nirvana in its current form. As always, just my humble opinion[emoji485]

I don't own a single Radius. Not even one of those boring red, blue, or white ones. :D

You calling red, white, and blue boring? Blasphemer[emoji844][emoji631][emoji631][emoji631] [emoji12]. They should have shat canned that hideous skulls pattern and made it a USA Flag pattern instead![emoji106]

Thank you. I work very hard at being a stubborn mule and am glad to know that it's appreciated. Or noticed.

Whatever (ToMAYto, ToMAHto).

And I wouldn't worry about it too much, Jim.. The probability of them adding such an option is ridiculously low. Bluetooth phone connections, with a built-in speaker, are MUCH more likely than my stupid menu.

And that works for me, just by the way. I'd rather wait for "It", if the truth must be told. Or ANYTHING they dream up in a side-by-side model. I wouldn't care WHAT menu THAT had.

No, I would not.

Well since i have posted some on this I must reply.

It is not about enough or not enough. The fact that I can now get 4 additional skin choices does not in anyway affect weather I would or wouldn't buy a Radius. The basic Radius is perfectly acceptable looking to me, some of the new options appeal to me, some don't.

I am mystified and curious about the choices Provape offer at this point. Why these four skins? Three are so not acceptable to me. I have yet to read of anyone ordering anything but the snake skin, interestingly my preference too.

Camo for example is something I would never buy but I could understand Provape offering it.
I expect most would prefer say carbon fibre over Mud Girl.

I am not disappointed or appointed, I am curious. ;)

This had me scratching my head too. The stealth version was a no brainer but the rest of them? If they had a focus group that led them towards choices like skulls and that abstract mud slinger they should have their ears boxed. They have literally scores of peeps here in this humble lil forum that might have been able to provide some great input. I'm staring at those skulls thinking someone on the mothership needs to remember their demographics. All that aside, I'm a true happy camper over my soon to be delivered Stealth version! [emoji485]

Here's my thought @Jim- I think a lot of people prefer the 2.5 menu cause it was simpler & the display larger on the eyes. The Radius should be set it & forget it cause if I have to keep squinting at the display every time I need to be in it, I'd just get mad all the time. The damn thing, for all it's info, is too damn tiny! {IMO} even the lil window is a joke. ProVape couldn't have used a slightly longer window to increase the font size?

The largest (but not the sole) contributing factor, yes. :thumb:

I like the fact that I don't need to lifter readers to my head to see what my menus say. Call it age, call it lazy, doesn't matter.

I take no one has gotten a shipping notice? Just curious. They got the first round our pretty fast. I am sure they are making them as they are ordered. Hell it is not even for me and I am still excited to see the end result.

So I put my order in on day 1.1 of the new customizable Radii. So I missed the sale by like 23 hrs... So I'd have to be a pain and cancel/reorder (which just wouldn't bring me good Karma either... Haha)

But it's only like a $25 difference I guess... So I'm just keeping it.

In any case I had to buy something on sale! So I got a blem P3 Zenkote... $143.95 with the sale.

I almost got a Classic Zenkote (love the tears), then almost got a blem 2.5 mini zenkote, but then realized I wanna put in the request for the p3 cap, then want the extension, so it just wouldn't make sense really after all the add on's..

I am in a similar situation, I want a stealth radius, but I have also taken a hard long look at the blem p3 zenkote. I want one of these for the sub ohm capabilities, as I have discovered that with the right tank, I could sub ohm if I ever felt the need to do so... What made you decide on the zenkote?

There was someone talking about the durability of the finish... Like very very durable. As durable as the Satin finish. Meaning it's as hard as the metal under it and doesn't scratch or chip. And looks darn nice too. I haven't seen one in person but some folks rave about how it looks.

But remember, I also have a Stealth ti p3, a black 2.5 mini, a black p3, a midnight blue radius, and now a Stealth Radius, 2.5 mini zenkote, and p3 zenkote on the way!

So... I have all the options... If i were choosing just 1, I'm not sure if I'd go zenkote mainly due to the fact that I assume it will show fingerprints and be slippery when wet. Haha. But I'm looking forward to it.

The blem standard black p3 is there in the specials as well. If you want a "Daily device" I'd go with that one! Or a Radius.. But you could go zenkote Gunmetal as a daily device that will take a beating better than the black ceramic coat...

Well that was a lot of rambling. Not sure if it helped.

I have 2 P3's and in my opinion, they are not very good subohm mods unless you plan to use a 0.8-0.9ohm coil.

If the P3 consistantly could do 20w with a 0.5ohm coil, I would be estatic... But it doesn't. The P3 can read a 0.5 at a different resistance which can require a voltage change, which means lower wattage. To raise the "IQ" to raise the wattage requires stretching the end cap spring, deoxidizing/cleaning the threads/extension caps, etc. Total P.I.T.A. IME to the point I never bother using my P3's with subohm tanks and will never again.

I love my P3's but only run them at 8-13w and can't see that ever changing. If I want to subohm at 0.5ohms, that is why I bought a Radius. For 0.2-0.4ohms, I use a Snow Wolf or RX200.
