There was a bit of discussion concerning the viability of a Titanium Radius. I get that it might cost over $300, but given that a Ti Stealth P3 goes for nearly that, I think there would be a market for it, especially given that the P3 is kind of iffy for sub-ohm vaping?

If you would like a Ti radius, please respond here. Or, if you think I am a batty titanium-....., please respond here also :)

Has anyone seen PBusardo's Radius review via YouTube. He seems to be a Provape kinda guy. He said several times in his review he would like to see an all metal Radius.
I've also noticed on most reviews that folks don't have the mini usb cover on. This bothers me. I will most likely own a Radius in the not so distant future but I will not use it as my EDV if I have to worry about that cover falling off and water and dirt getting in it.

My Stealth Radius didn't even come with the USB cover. I would likely lose it in a few days though as it isnt very tight/secure when installed.

Doesn't really bug me as my SX Mini, Kangers, RX200s and other USB enabled mods didn't come with a cover when bought new.

Hmm. I find that a bit disturbing. I do construction work so a Radius definitely wouldn't last long on a jobsite. Probably get dust and moisture in the first day with my luck. It kinda makes me wonder if a P3 Stealth wouldn't better suit me for my needs. I do really want to give the Radius a try though.

If I worked on a construction site and didn't need to subohm, I would be buying a $49.95 2.5 or two or a Classic. Smaller and likely more durable if dropped.

I honestly can't see the USB cover being around long in your case anyways.

Tubes mods rock for sure. Just wanted to try a box mod. Not even really considered any other company besides Provap. And I don't need anything over 40 watts. I do dream of the Ti or all metal Radius. It seems Dicodes has the right idea in my opinion. SS top and SS bottom with aluminum body. And a single battery cap. It may not be the way Provape wants to take the Radius but I can dream. I would also like the see a hinged mico usb cover like on cell phones.
I will probably pick up a Radius in the next couple of weeks. Got a couple of expenses to take care of first.

From a lot of the pics you've seen, the USB cover isn't there because it was lost or something like that. For many, it's the first thing we get rid of. I have no need for it just like I have no need for it in many of the electronics I own that came with one.
Mine is in the box my Radius came in.

Agreed.
With the USB port being vertical and not on the bottom edge like a lot of mods, pocket lint is not really an issue as well.

ProVape had in mind the Radius battery be USB charged instead of battery swapping. In theory, that's great but for me the Radius takes an eternity to charge the battery. It's so much easier and less time consuming to replace with a fresh battery.

Even though my cover is in the box, had it been let's say the same color of the mod, I would've left it plugged in. Mine is the Ghost White & that black plugged just bugged the :censored: outta me. :lol:
