My only concern is that you won't be able to do a chip upgrade with previous models on the new upcoming Provari. Like others have said, they seem to imply that it's going to be an entirely new model rather than a chip upgrade and a new styled tube. I think one of the best things about the Provari is that you can buy a model, and not have to feel like you need another one when a new one comes out because you can simply do a chip upgrade. It was an ease of mind that I wouldn't feel like my Provari is obsolete upon a new release.

I watched both of the videos last night when I received the email! Super impressed and bravo to Provape for taking their own path and not worrying about being part of the crowd!!

One of the most interesting points to me, was the company they 'saved' from bankruptcy that coats the tubes. Kind of explains why the coating doesn't change much.

I'm not concerned. The 2.5's I have will stay like they are. I'm perfectly happy with them and I probably won't be the first to buy the new model since I already have some great equipment.

Well, if the P3 is a totally different device, they could STILL offer upgrades to the 2.5, if there's a chip upgrade, etc...
I mean, you can't "upgrade" your Provape1 to a Provari, but you could upgrade your ProVari 2 to a 2.5.
And continuing to sell the existing model means it's not obsoleting the current one - it's serving different needs. Maybe it's even smaller. Maybe it's VW, maybe it's plug-in rechargeable. Things people want, but not necessarily INSTEAD of their ProVari 2.5.

The more I think about the technology, quality checks, expense, & thought put into the production of the provari, it makes ever other device seem as if they're coming from some old dudes garage with the help of 4 or 5 of his drinking buddies. It also kind of negates the term "just a battery holder" as it is so much more than that. I wish the company I work for was half the company Provape appears to be.

I thought it was very interesting to see inside the company and see how the Provari is made. The guys just seemed like they wanted to make a good product and make it right. To think that it's taken them 2 years to get to the point they are now with their soon to be revealed product makes me expect the new item to be very solid. Take the iPhone for example, I love my iPhone. They upgrade it every 6 months to a year and the mob clamoring for the new version! new version! makes me feel like iPhones are put out before they are ready to be. When Provape puts out their new model, I don't think there will be anything that they missed and need a "software update" type situation a week after it's released. I believe the next ProVape product will be excellent.

One question...how come no one vapes at the facility??? Except Phil, of course ;)

I feel the same way! It's such great equipment! I'm very happy with the 3 I own. I don't have to be the first on the block to have the newest thing on the market.
I just wished I hadn't spent so much on silly things, but that's the road you sometimes have to take.

You mean like a Zen-collab ProVari Xtreme..? ;)

I saw one of the CSRs in the background holding a ProVari with a topper on it...and another fella with juice on his desk... :)

Really great videos -- made me very proud of my choice!

Early on in Part 1, you catch the tail-end of Dave blowing a cloud, too...


Agreed.. thanks for the videos, ProVape & pbusardo!

Can't wait to see what's next. It must be huge. Because every time I take a chance (I'm a sucker for hype) on the next latest and greatest, I end up selling it because it doesn't hold up with my Provari Mini (At least with the way I vape). Really would have like to hear their response to the government at the end of the interview of video 1.

I'm hoping that the V3 (or whatever it's going to be called) is as good as the Provari V2.5. I appreciate them taking the time not just to make the device right, but to have the production all set so that they can keep up with demand. Maybe I'll actually have a shot at buying one that way. I've been wanting a ZNA, but their production apparently can't keep up with demand. So I'm hoping not only for a fantastic device, but also one that you anyone can actually purchase at will.
 
Seeing their well run facility has only strengthened respect for Provape. I went from ego to Provari because I kept hearing that the device was quality, they stood behind their product. I figured that I'd rather "buy once and cry once". But then I bought 4. No regrets! I want to support an American company that strives to support their workers and other American vendors.

I'm excited to see what their next device is. And I'll gladly buy one, not because I need another vape, but because I really want to give this company my business! :vapor::vapor::vapor:
