Well there are some people that say you can buy 5 other devices for what you would pay for one Provari.
Hummmmm.
I'm not saying those people that say that aren't serious about not smoking.
But I prefer a proven track record, so my backup for my Provari is another Provari.
If I go back to the old way, I made up in my mind my gear won't be an excuse.
So lets see I have two minis with an extension cap.
Two 18350 batts for home
Four 18490' for out and about.
Four 18650 for those you never know days.
Yes yes I'm OCD......:unsure:

Getting back on topic, though, funny how all the Provari haters don't own a Provari. Sometimes they even have to pump themselves up to maintain that hate.

Some owners can be cocky and I can see how the Provari snobbishness can put a lot of people off. But those are a few bad apples, you can't let them ruin the whole barrell.

Wait, is that even a metaphor?

Only if you spell "barrel" correctly. Don't bite off more than you can carry.

Drop a zmax from 10ft I bet on it being broke and not made in usa, provari though is usa made and I can drop it from 20ft and it would fire like it wasn't dropped.
Because we're all about 10ft tall right?


ProVari are overpriced. Also, the USA does not actually produce ANY of the materials used to make ANY mods. ProVari sources it's steel from china, same as every other US company. They mill it here, but the forgings are all from china.

Ok assembled engineered repaired in the USA.
A USA based company with customer service that's accountable to its customers.
Still employs US workers.
Plain n simple Provari is like having a pair of Salvatorre Ferragamos shoes, as opposed
to a pair of Payless shoes. U will get a lot more mileage out of the Ferragamos than u will Payless.
With a little care a resole here and there they will last a very long time.

I dropped my vamo into a quarry a few days ago. Dry bed, about a 50 foot drop, hit the cliff a few times on the way down and spun the last 30 feet. Not only is my iclear fine after tightening up (Man I love plastic) but the vamo was fine, too. got a couple dents, works great, tests good.

While these whole "american made drop proof etc" posts are uh..... I don't know, not productive. Loyal?
Yeah, while they are very loyal, I think we should make a habit of backing those buggers up with say, a video? Let's drop a vamo 10 times from ten feet, testing each time, same deal with a zmax and a provari, and see what wins.

Or hell, try it yourself, film it, and post that bad boy! Put some empirical evidence where your mouth is, because otherwise the loyalty tends to look.... well, you know.

Silly.
