...I found out today why so many people are. I just bought one today. I'm still in shock. I'm not a fanboi by any means and I'm not even close to being rich. It took me 15 minutes to decide to buy it. Here's what sold me on it: performance. Period. I have a Vamo and I have an SVD on the way. The shop had an SVD which the owner uses and loves, a Smok ZMAX Mini and the Provary Mini. I've been wanting a shorty and had looked at the ZMAX Mini but bought the SVD from fasttech because of the telescoping option. I use my Vamo at work so I leave it as an 18650 mod for all day battery life. So they let me try all three with one of my favorite juices. The SVD was the weakest on flavor. Now I'm second guessing my purchase of it. The ZMAX was great on flavor, heat and vapor. I was sold on it because it performed terrifically, plus it was the kit with a Nova, battery and charger, and the extension tube. Always good to have extras! But then I started asking about the Provari. The girl put the tank on, put the battery in, and handed it to me.

Holy. Crap.

Junkie juice's Chill'n Cherry never tasted so....cherry! With the SVD, it tasted like cherry gum. The ZMAX made it taste like cherry pie, much like my Vamo. The Provari made it taste like I had a mouthful of maraschino cherries. I couldn't believe it. Still can't, honestly. The performance of this thing is unbelievable. The 1 year warranty can't be beat. The fact that it's built so well is a plus, although imo the digital screen looks like something from the 80's. An OLED screen would be perfect for this device. I also bought a Cirrus XL tank. This combination is crazy good. I probably won't buy another device without trying it out first because of the difference in performance. I will also be taking my Provari to the shop to try flavors with again, because of the difference in performance.

I see a lot of people on here complain that someone always mentions this device in just about every thread. It reminds me of the hatred towards the iPhone (I'm an Android guy :p). I know now why people love this device. I'm still not a fanboi because I like choices, but to those of you that are full Provari fans, I see why.

Well let's see here, so the scoreboard says....1.5.

Now I do see two references spaced adequately apart, so I think we can award you 3 points!

EDIT:
Upon further review, There is a third "fanboi" in the title! So I think we can up the score to 4.5!

Make your picture work so I can like it and then start rambling about the Le Provari watching this thread.

Oh also - Congrats OP - there's a reason there's so much hatred towards the Vari. We call these people the 'non-believers' -- they are generally handled with eloquent retorts and smart-assery.

I went to check out a new vape store yesterday. The clerk seemed disappointed that I have a ProVari and carto tank because he knew we was not going to sell me anything except juice.

As I have 2, and not other devices at the moment, I guess that makes me a fan. Really I don't what others think. I know that what I have is quality and if I have a problem, it will get fixed. With school, work, and hobbies, I'm a busy woman, and I just want to have my vape available for me when I want it, without fuss.

Someone above mentioned using it at home only. I used to do that thinking I was protecting it, but now they are always with me. I just take the steps to protect them with Serenity Gear or a case.

Since getting the Provari, the only time I used another PV was when I was painting my fence. I don't mind getting paint splatters on my secondary gear, but I'd hate to junk up my Provari. Otherwise when out and about the Provari Mini is in 350 mode safely tucked away in my pocket. I bought it to use it.

I Got one too. Nice for dripping. I have other mods too that I still use. But what I use when I'm out is my Provari. I also like to take a 510 mini with me for the shock value. Example: Your in a gas station puffing away on what look like a cigarette glowing tip and all and you toss it into you shirt pocket and start pumping gas.Never knew peoples eyes could get so big.8-o

I'm gonna go ahead an quote myself from the "Why Provari" thread that I tried to stay out of for the last 25 pages but just couldn't deal with it anymore.

"I really wanted to stay out of this thread... but what in the hell are you going on about?

Do people not understand the concept of a 'fanboy' and how the term is used in the non-pejorative sense? Things develop gatherings not because they're garbage that doesn't work well, they develop this 'fanboy' base because people enjoy using them and feel as though they should stand behind the product that they love. Whether that be a laptop, a phone, OR THE DEVICE THAT HELPED THEM QUIT SMOKING CIGARETTES.

Us fanboys apologize in advance that something helped us get healthier in a way that we enjoyed, at least, I know I personally am very sorry that I stand behind a product that I would recommend to any of my friends that were trying to not die.

/I'mdonenow.sorry.

Actually I'm not done now. Now I'm riled up.

You know why I have a macintosh over a pc? You know why I have an iPhone over an android? You know why I have a Gibson over a Peavy? You know why I ride a Ducati over a Suzuki? You know why I use my Provari instead of anything else I have?

Because every time I want to use it, I can, without fail. And it will work, until I'm done using it. Am I a fanboy now, because I support something that works when I use it -- every single time? Or is it because I'll pay a few extra bucks for something without as many features, that isn't as shiny as something new because well, I just prefer rock solid builds with warranties.

I guess I'm just - what's the term my students always use? Old School."

Frackin haters.

Has anyone watched this?? Made me laugh....


Hilarious lol.

I've only been vaping 3 months. I do own a Vamo and Twists. I like my Vamo. It works great and smiles at me lol. The thing is, tho, even after just one day of using my Provari I can tell how much more well built it is over the Vamo. The Vamo may last 6 months, maybe longer. At $50 a pop it can just be replaced. I forsee the Provari lasting a very long time. It's a great investment if you chain vape like I do.
