I've never heard anything bad about the provari and, just as important, that the CS is awesome! I'm a cheap person and never thought I'd spend this kind of money on a mod. But now I'm thinking its the right, and best, option.

We need long term devices and consistency. I've tried the cheaper imitations and am frustrated.

Is this the right thing to do? Bite the bullet and be happy?

I say YES.... but I haven't bit the bullet (only purchased the silver bullet) lol, I keep tossing the idea over and over, and then just as I think YES DO IT, something ELSE comes up, like a Dr bill for my old man, or a dentist bill for one of my kids. So, still just biting my silver bullet! hehe

I've been using my Provari for near a year and it still performs as excellently as the day I got it. I haven't even sent it in yet for the v2 upgrade. I got an eGo Twist a while back to use at work, but it just didn't do it. I ended up using my Provari at work instead, and the Twist is part of a contest giveaway in the PIF subforum right now.

I know that the provari cost more than most other devices but it's worth it IMO. You can buy cheaper stuff and it stops working and maybe you can send it back and maybe you can't. The absolute piece of mind I get owning a provari makes it worth the extra price alone. Not to mention that it simply works. The cost of the provari is equal to one or two months of cigarettes for most people and it will last much much longer. I've read post after post where people talk of their lava tubes or vmaxs konking out or misfiring or coming apart. Eventually, I see that many spend much more buying cheaper devices than they would had they just got a provari in the first place. For newbies.. start with the cig-look-a-like if you want.. upgrade to and ego if you like, but then go for the provari and don't mess with the stuff that keep breaking.

I own several vv devices, the provari being one of them. I love them all and the provari is my favorite and the one I'd hate to have to part with the most. It's my only vv tube, the others are boxes.

I've had my Silver Bullet for about 4 months now. I was visiting the AltSmoke shop in Columbus, Ohio and the owner Rob let me try his kicked Silver Bullet. It was my first experience with higher voltage. I won't say it was a revelation, but it got my curiosity stirred. I even tried one of those 4.8v Nimh batteries in my own SB, nice vape, but they don't last long at all. I thought about stacking batteries, but came to my senses and realized its not recommended for safety reasons.

I don't want to get a kick and extension for the SB. The idea of having to remove it and the battery to adjust the voltage didn't appeal to me. The only way to go would be to get a dedicated VV device, and seeing the new Provari color lineup finally made my decision for me.

The provari is well worth every penny. At first I had a hard time justifying the price tag but also decided to bite the bullet and go for it. No regrets and I now own 2 of them and they are basically all I use and I have a silver bullet as my backup device. If I could only have one device it would be a provari hands down.

Hands down my favorite mod, I have 7 now, including one of the first batches made, it still kicks .... every day. I don't see a need to send it back for V2 'cause it still working just fine. I've never had a problem and the only reason I have 7 now is, I like the different finishes and being able to use 3 different battery sizes. 3 years ago I was paying $200 a month for cigarettes, so, 7 months of cigarettes went to my Provari's. I'm totally saving a lot of money and worrying if it will work, I know it won't let me down. It takes all the frustration out of the equation, simply works great. It's second nature now to set the Provari. I hear people complaining about the button clicks needed, well, if you settle on what works for you, you really don't need to mess with it. Set it and forget it, just change out the batteries. It only takes a week or so to know when you need to change out the batteries so there's really no need after you get used to using it to use the battery option. There's never a drop off of power, same power every time you use it.

You get the bang for your buck if you purchase a Provari!
