For my .02 cents worth , they both have their place . While the Provari , is very well made , the Evic is a tad on the frail side . But in it's defense , the Evic does have both VV , and VW , the Provari , only VV . And as for all the bells and whistles aspect . The Evic does give a lot of information , not important to some people . But some people like having the extra information , even the puff counter ( tells them how much their vaping ) So in essense , they both have their good points , and both their bad . Had the contest been between the Vamo and the Provari , it would have been a tougher call . Vamo is well made , has Both VV , and VW , and is tons , less than a Provari . I have all three of these devices , and like them all , for different reasons .
