Hello and welcome!
As a new vaper myself. I went with eGos and a Cylon (its the Chrome lavatube style, not sure if its a 1.5 or 2.0 still very new to all this, but it does have VV, cart resistance verification,regulator and battery level indicator).
I just barely bought the Cylon and my eyes are glazing over the Provari... and if I had known I was going to love the Cylon as much as I do... I would have skipped over it and got the Provari. We live and learn.
I would make sure that you are going to love
vaping before buying into a more expensive
device (twice as much as mine was). HOWEVER! If you buy quality the first time, you buy once. (It turns into a hobby, so dont count on buying one only
mod 
)
I am not that upset over not investing into a "better" product as I am perfectly content with my current Cylon VV. I WILL be buying a new mod soon though
For instance I am trying to sell my week old Volcano Inferno kit. I used it once and decided I wanted to try something bigger (Sigh, more money spent).
