I used the cash that was put aside for the P3 to grab the Ti ProVari. After checking one out at a local shop I kind of felt like I actually preferred the regular screen and menu but the new topcap was the real deciding factor for me. Now watch Provape make this an option for the regular Provari line...

My sentiments exactly. SO tempted....

I thinks it was about 500 of each :) one of the more limited runs we have done. For the qty showing on the website, this does not factor in manual orders, so the remaining stock could be different. :)
I placed an order and 'your processor' declined my card ! When I contacted the customer service, they didn't know why ?! Very disappointing

Oh... just can't justify it!

woe.

:(

I am having the same problem....

I want one, can even afford it, but I have a hard time parting with that much money for a Provari....

I am still upset they (Provape) didn't make a Titanium Extender Battery Cap to match the tube....

Dunno......

I like the convenience of the extended battery cap...but something has been in the back of my mind for a few weeks now...
It seems like they are experimenting with bringing the 2.5 up to the P3's level of appearance.
The extended battery cap may become a thing of the past...or at least the current version may.
I predict the possibility of a new style extended cap, which is squared off at the bottom, like an extender ring + flat bottom cap.
Personally, I don't blame them. They've done the same thing for so long, and it's not like they'd be the first company to make some design changes to their product...
After all, cars do it every year!

When was the last time you bought a car with square wheels?

Well you mentioned car manufacturers, and also mentioned perhaps a new square base for the Provari....so I tan with square wheels on cars.....LOL

People would then complain about it fitting in their pockets, etc.

The only reason they probably didn't make a titanium extension cap was probably cost, not to mention that with extension rings you can use the stock cap.....

This is nice, but how does it make sense with the P3 coming so soon? This is like a 2.5/P3 hybrid for the cost of a P3 but with less features and power than a P3. I hate to sound like such a jerk, but how can you guys just run out to buy this thing? I mean, geez, the P3 is almost here. The thought of buying this sounds ridiculous to me.

I get the allure of the Ti... It's like the difference between the wizard and the Wizards apprentice. One stainless and one titanium. I personally like the heft of the ProVari. I think the titanium weight savings might be a bit too much and make it feel a bit too light. To the point of feeling too heavy. One of the things I like about the ProVari in stainless is how balanced it feels no matter what topper you put on it. A Ti with a kayfun is probably gonna tip over way too easy without a tatroe base or stand

When I decided to buy my Provari, I bought the Stealth Mini(same price as the Titanium). It's 11 months old now, gets used ever day, has NEVER missed a beat, and still looks brand new from a few feet away. I've dropped it a couple times, but you can't see any finish missing unless you look close for it.

I already told myself that I wouldn't get the P3 until it's been out for a while, even to the point of holding off until a Stealth (or now a Titanium P3) is released. No particular reason, other than I've never had an instance where I needed more power than my 2.5 could offer.

The Titanium Mini is going to be my back up. It's also going to let me be able to use an 18350, 18490, or 18650 battery(I'm getting two extended rings). The Titanium, like the Stealth, will hold an excellent value if I so choose to sell one in the future. I have roughly $285 in my Stealth Mini with extended cap. I could sell it today in a minute for $200. That means that in 11 months, it will have cost me $85. $85 for one of the best devices offered. This is all hypothetical...I'm not selling it, at least for a long time...but that's my reason for the Titanium Mini 2.5 purchase.

Plus, I just like to say Titanium.
Titanium.

I SHALL NOW AND FOREVER NAME THE TITANIUM MINI 2.5 PROVARI THE TiP2.5M.

It's not at all ridiculous. The P3 has been alluded to for quite some time, then announced. Beta units are in the hands of the chosen few, and realistically it could be several months, possibly even into the new year before P3's are readily available in numbers sufficient to satisfy demand. I was very exited about the P3, but then after handling one at a B&M, weighing what I actually need for my vaping, the 2.5 really does it all. The new top cap, plus the reduced weight of the Ti really makes the Ti V2.5 the perfect setup for me. I can read the display without my glasses, use all three battery sizes, and the power is more than I currently use. In the end, it is merely a luxury purchase, in that light, perhaps it is crazy, but definitely not ridiculous :)

You have to consider there are many Provari followers who can easily afford the Ti. It looks great, it's a Provari, and a fine addition for someone who is satisfied with using only volts.

Oh please lets not go into the volt vs. wattage thingy....

Ok..OK why does my ZNA with the Evolv chip set vary the voltage when I set the wattage?

Sheesh....okay..okay....

You cannot adjust wattage without varying voltage, simply ohms law....I know I will get a ton of flack on this but the only reason VW is offered in any American chip set now is because the imports have been doing it for a few years....

IT'S A MIND GAME!

(It's really a marketing game)! :ohmy:

Wattage is a measurement of electrical load.
Volts is the amount of electricity placed on or in a circuit.
Amperage is the flow of the electrical load.
Resistance well it's resistance.

Who cares anyway?

Does it look good, does it vape good, do you like it?

Are you satisfied with what you purchased?

Please lets not revisit watts vs. volts vs resistance, it's a moot point...

It's kind of like opinions, everyone has one, unfortunately things like laws of physics and laws or principals of electricity have been proven and it is what it is, regardless of my or anyone's opinions.

PEACE :vapor:
