And you're far from alone, Mike.

Indeed! As always, just my opinion, but I think the 2.5 Ti is the best mod they've made to date. I'd just like to see them break some ground rather than walk on ground well-trodden by every other maker out there. Or at least bring back the "it" factor that keeps me coming back to my 2.5s. For me, a lot of that is simplicity, reliability, consistency, comfort, and something else I can't quite put my finger on ("it"). Remember when people envied you for owning a Provari? No longer, now they wonder why we could spend so much and get what they see as so little (still the occasional hater out there, though they are mainly throwbacks to the 2.0 days when Provari owners were all elitists :lol:).

Again, just my opinion.

There are a few of us stodgy old bastiges still hanging around. ;-)

NOTHING against the newer stuff. I, like you, simply have a preference. And thankfully, we can all have our ways.

BUT BRING ON "IT"!

or is it, BUT BRING "IT" ON!

Whatevs. Let the Grammar Police have at me.

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? ;)

The parts are PVD coated first then ceramic coated on the Radius Stealth.
I've read pvd is durable but with the ceramic coating how much extra protection does this provide? How long should that finish hold up with normal wear and tear? How scratch resistance is it? Sorry for all the questions but just trying to get the facts. Thanks!

I'll continue to derail on this one.

And you did a right nice job. Yes you did!



I am so completely opposite from you guys. I loved my 2.5's. I did. But I have none left. I sold one and gave one away. For me, the P3 was [is] so much better and the Radius even better and more user friendly. Now my P3 is backup to my Radius and soon will be backup to backup to my 2nd Radius. I love the menu system personally.

I've got 2.0's, 2.5's, P3, Radii and I couldn't disagree more w/ you. I think they hit it out of the park w/ the Radisus.


I have a selection of 2.0-2.75's that get happily used in my rotation, daily. (especially the Ti's). But I agree with both of you on the rest. My go to mod is P3 Ti in 18650 mode or a Radius. I always grab a Radius when I leave the house.

The Radii have become more useful and convenient for me than I even I, with a fondness for tidy comfy box mods, would have guessed.

And the vape, well heck, it's a ProVi -- what do you expect. :)

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.

Yes. It begins with, " Good for you. Now bend over so I can... ":censored:

Hell, they never stopped wondering that.
