As long as you consider it an investment, rather than a purchase, then you're already seeing things the right way. You can purchase countless Chinese mods in a pursuit of happiness and smooth vaping, or you can invest in one ProVari and be happy for a long long time.

I, for one, spent more on crappy Chinese mods looking for something nice than I did on my first ProVari... If I had just bitten the bullet and bought a ProVari out of the gate, I would have saved hundreds.

There is only one problem... Once you buy one, it's going to beg you for a brother... And then a sister... And then it's going to start asking about it's heritage, and beg for mommy and daddy

So you'll end up with 2 standards and 2 or more mini's in all colors of the rainbow.

None of us here can rightfully explain the quality of a ProVari... It's just something you have to experience for yourself, and then come to your own judgment. The nice part is, say you buy one from the Classifieds used. If you DON'T like it, throw it right back up on the classies and you'll get back every dime. They really retain value well, and with some of these limited editions in play, may even increase in value as time goes by. That's something that can not be said about cheap Chinese mods.

If you're even remotely interested, I say you should just get one and try it out. There is a very high probability you won't regret it!

9 months for my oldest one, and I expect them all to last a long time. I also made the jump from Ego Twist to ProVari because I was tired of having issues with the Twists. They are cheap, but I went through 2 Twists in 4 months. At that rate, in a year I would have spent the same as I did on the first ProVari (which was a blem on clearance).

I think the purchase of a 2nd one is for backup, and after that, it's more about color choices. Regardless, I do not reqret my purchase of any of them. :)

My first one was ordered during the preorder when they first came out. I think just past Christmas it will be 3 years old. On my weekend days I'd go thru 15 to 18 mL DIY eLiquid. That means she ran pretty much constantly. My last vape was Feb 6th. . .I gave everything to those in my family that still smoke. JMHO

Cheers,

Both of my version 2 Regular and Mini are around 2 years old. They've been in active service every day since I've got them. I had a V1 for around 6 months before, that I sold to one of my converts when I got my second one.
