I am very tired of buying VV Crap that does not give a true voltage...I have had several different devices over my 7 month vaping journey (eGo Twists, VMOD XL, Bolts, GLV Mini, VTubeX, Lambo V2) and with the exception of the Twists and the non VV mods all have been crap. The VariTube X worked great for a while (Good somewhat accurate voltage), but the 510 connector was crap and shorted out around 50 days in ($70 down the drain). The Lambo V2 runs so hot at even 3V, I cant even use a 2.4 ohm Kanger T2 on it till the battery is on the last bar. It works great with 3ohm Carto tanks, but I dislike cartos ($90 down the drain).

So as you can see I have spent way more than a Provari would have cost me had I just bought it to begin with but I have a few questions prior to making my "Final Purchase"...

I need a device that fires the correct voltage when the battery is new till it is ready to die.

So I guess I am wondering the following...

1. Does the Provari V2 run at the voltage the display shows or is it like the Lambo V2 and runs higher than what is shown on the display?
2. Does anyone have a picture of a Provari with a ego adapter and a Kanger T2 installed? I would like to see how it looks (I like the Kangers over all the other stuff I've tried).
3. If anyone has a Lambo V2 and a Provari (Dont know why you would unless you bought it first....) What is the difference in size with the 18650 extension cap installed?

I want this to be my last purchase for a while, so any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Used google and found a pic of the mini with a kanger. Helps give you the idea.

3. Provari is 4.6" with extension cap. Lambo is 5.15"

i saw my first real provari in person today and the mini is soooo little. amazing something just slightly bigger than my 650 twist can pack such a punch. my friend had both his mini and full size with him today and he let me play with one.... allllllmost clicked buy on provape tonight when i got home. forcing myself to wait until i either destroy my YJ 2.0 or after the holidays at least when i should have some spare cash haha

The ProVari is as advertized. Rock solid,accurate and reliable. So many people have avoided purchasing one due to the price and have ended up buying it in the end. It is a bit expensive. Since you are frustrated with past purchases and are ready to get the ProVari,get the one you want.
Get the color and the options you want. You may have sticker shock but you won't post a thread saying you regret it.

On the off chance that you aren't thrilled with it (I don't see this happening at all), you can offer it for sale in the classified section and have people lined up to buy it for a very small hit on your wallet. They retain their value because they work like they are supposed to.

lol unless you drop 5 times and the internals break off. don't do that. lol. the internals in the provari seem pretty well insulated though. If you look into a Zmax, they look almost identical. I haven't held a Zmax in my hand though.. and I'm willing to bet the provari has much thicker walls when compared to the Zmax, although I could be wrong. all I know is, I could easily knock someone out with the bottom cap of my provari screwed in with a hammer fist to the back of their head, or their temple :D thats how I gauge how well my PVs are built... NO i don't need therapy! I'm a young adult! :p

Provari is a SS tube(right?) ... Zmax is a brass chrome plated tube. Though you can find the SS for like an extra $10 on some sites.

SS tubes are SERIOUSLY tough. But there's a video of a vendor who is selling a brass chrome lambo that you'd think HAS to be ss ... dude ran over it with a SUV, threw it at a cement wall, dropped it a million times on surfaces, and he even took a baseball bat to it. Still worked ... lol
