I want to be cool like you

[Lahme]

So i've been vaping with egos for quite some time now, I then upgraded to an Ego-VV which broke yesterday cause a clearomizer got stuck and i tried to unscrew with pliers and it ended up breaking the whole upper part ripping the wires, so I tossed it in the trash and didn't think much of my 40$ lost, because after all, my health is the most important thing and no money can replace my lungs.

but now im thinkin I WANT TO BE COOL LIKE YOU

So, I'm looking at nice expensive mods, that people always talk about Provaris, Evics, etc.

Could you guys recommend me a certain type? I know everyone has their favorites, but the pros and cons of each are undeniable. For those that have them do you recommend them? What do think of them? What don't you like about them? Where should I buy my next e cig?

thanks

Boy, this is probably going to get a ton of posts.
The exact same thing happened with the twist my friend has. Luckily, she got it from a brick and mortar, so she just took everything back and the owner replaced it.

Now to your question: if you're talking about staying on variable voltage, other than the twist, I only have the Provari. I like it. VV, blue LEDs for $15 extra, matte black and an extension cap. I can vape on that sucker all day and then some - at least the way I use it. The only things I can complain about are that the the button is rattly (a tiny bit - you can hear it if you lightly touch the button a few times or shake it) and that the post is bronze colored, which sometimes makes me wonder if there might be a slight juice leak. On the plus side, it's very stylish, and it's got a 1 year warranty.

Hope this helps!

Where is the best place to purchase a Provari?

I started with an ego twist as well. I then upgraded to a Lavatube V2 but found that it was just a little too big to carry around. A couple weeks ago I purchased a Provari and I have to say I am thoroughly impressed. It is well built, and I can tell that it will last a long time. I got the Provari 2.5 with the 18490 batteries and they last me about 1 1/2 days, and I vape about 3ml per day. Since I got the Provari I havent used any of my other devices because they just dont compare! The only down side on the Provari is obviously the price... but in the end I do believe its well worth it because I dont forsee myself having to replace it anytime soon. Hope this helps!

The best place is their website... Provape.com

ProVape. If you want to save about $20.00 get a blemished model. No one has been able to find the blemish on theirs. You will find those under the clearance tab. Sometimes they have them here. Clearance

How does the Provari compare to Apollo VTube Kit .

Also is there a way to make ego clearomizers work on a provari?

You will normally find the salesman In a car with Jesus, Mohammad, Buddha, and Moses (jk)

Provape.com is the best unless there is a B&M where you live that has a sales agreement with Provape.

For a tube PV, I stick with my notcigs Buzz Pro VV. It doesn't have screens, just a simple thumbwheel to move the voltage up or down. Excellent run time, performance (stays where it's set, no sag as the batteries deplete), rugged (lots of drops on concrete, others have done things up to running them over with a lawnmower without breaking them).

If you already have an all day vape, the REOS VV Grand is sweet. It has the same notcigs electronics, but in a REOS bottom feeder metal box format, with 6 ml bottle.

Great CS from both of the above, active forum areas.

The Provari is also excellent, of course, it all depends on what you want.

There is an ego to 510 adapter you can use. I think ProVape sells them. I got mine at MadVapes. Provari is the only thing I have had besides Twists. They are American-made and have a 1 yr warrenty, so well worth the money. I got the blem a couple of weeks ago, and have not found the blem yet.

The only problem I have with provari is the BIG PRICE

besides the rugged and well-crafted build on the provari, the biggest thing that makes it my best PV is the type of power it gives. it does not use PWM, like most of the VV mods out there. this translates into a better vape.

PWM is Pulse Width Modulation. what that means is its firing on-off-on-off in a fast pulsing manner while you hold the button down. these little gaps in vape translate to a less satisfying experience. some folks dont notice it, some dont care, some dont know what theyre missing, some dont care what theyre missing. its all about personal preference.

i have 6 PVs and use them all daily. but when i want to rip the provari, i want to rip the provari. and nothing else will satisfy me. JMHO.

you might not have a problem with the big price when you notice that cheaper mods break or fail. and if you keep buying them, youll be up to the price of a provari in no time. or you could get lucky. but you may want to condsider if your provari were to malfunction (which is unlikely), it gets repaired, not trashed. plus the provari has a valuable, hefty, extendable warranty.

Long term, the Provari does not have a big price because it will outlast anything out there about three to one.

The ProVari does has an excellent track record, is made in the USA, has great customer service, can be easily shipped back for repair...a very tough package to beat. Mine has been a rock, always working, never a bobble in 16 months. Currently There are a few Blems available to save a bit of money.

Saber Touch from Vapor Moon, another great VV PV. One of the nicest things about the Saber is just like Burger King you can have it your way. You can pick the color, the engraved rings, end caps, smooth or knurled finish...it is the most customizable readily available PV out there. You can even add a passthrough option. Made in the USA.

BAM V2 from Vapor Cast. Big PV using a big battery, a 26500 plus it is Kick ready. Or you can use it without a Kick. Another excellent Made in the USA PV. Blems are available as well BAM Blemished Sale Thread . This is one of my favorite larger PVs and the large battery is good for a couple days of vaping.

Bombshell Stinger from Hot Vapes, made in the USA, another big 26650 Kick ready PV. Mine sits on my desk with a 7ml tank on it and it is a great vape.

Any of these would be a great choice, but my best recommendation would be to attend a Vape Meet or visit a few B&M shops and do some hands on comparisons to find which would suit you best.

Provari are definitely top-tier when it comes to PVs, and will last a lifetime, but are pretty pricy for a beginner (I know I'll get flack for that )

My suggestion is to go with a VAMO...it's probably the biggest bang-for-the-buck VV on the market right now. They are rugged, flexible (you can run just about anything on them, from 510 clearos, cartos, tanks, CE4s, RBAs etc,etc), supports multiple battery types (with the included sleeve), reliable...and you can buy about four of them for the price of a Provari.

Can I have a link for that vamo it looks sweet. is it ego threaded?

I just picked up another one last week from FrE-cig..he has the Stainless steel (V2) on sale for about $50 (no accessories- you still need the battery/charger/etc if you don't have them already) . The picture is a little misleading -they are not gold/copper in color, it's brushed stainless. Mine also has an AGA-T on it in the picture. Link:
Vamo V2+ (Stainless Steel)

Yes, you can run most Ego threaded devices, but some might require an adapter due to the depth of the "well" on top.

The ProVari actually DOES use PWM to vary its voltage output. Someone recently posted a comparison between the outputs of a ProVari and a Vamo (see http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ari-oscope-vs-vamo.html?highlight=provari+pwm ) including putting them on an oscilliscope. The difference (and the reason so many people like the ProVari so much) is that while most devices run at a slow rate (37Hz, or 37 on/off cycles per second), the ProVari does it at 800Hz (800 on/off cycles per second) which results in a much smoother power feed to the atomizer.

Just wanted to clear that up
