As I wrote in a previous thread, I fried my eGo-V VV battery trying to use a non-eGo cable to charge it, and I ordered an eVic to replace it. It came in the mail today. It's a very cool mod, and I'm quite happy with it.

My wife asked what it was and how much it cost, and I told her. Her response: "Why don't you just get a Provari. You know you're going to get one anyway, so why waste your time and money on something else in the meantime." Honestly, I think I remember reading that as a comment -- almost word-for-word -- on some thread here asking which mod to purchase. Maybe even more than once.

I'll have to use my eVic for a couple months before purchasing a Provari so that my vaping expenses can continue to fly under the radar screen. (A frugal wife is a great blessing. I think that's in Proverbs or something).

So, one the one hand, my enthusiasm for my eVic is perhaps a bit dampened by the knowledge that it coulda' been a Provari. But on the other hand: Yeah, I'm pretty much married to the finest women on earth.

I have both and a few others and like the VW and MVR profiles on the evic and vw on the anyvape v1 better than the provari. I change flavors a lot and my atties are all over the place as far as resistance so setting a wattage and not touching it is nice. On the cheap I like the twist too, might not be VW but changing voltage is a breeze.

Wow, you're my hero. How on earth do you juggle your time between them?:D

whats up with all the eVic hate suddenly?
whats up with all the provari elitists?
so OP made a wrong move and blaming on the mod?
I've been using my eVic for a month and I love it.

After using my eVic for several hours, I'm loving it. I've already programmed in an MVR VW configuration, and it completely satisfies my need to configure everything. If mods were computer operating systems, then the Provari is Red Hat Enterprise Linux and the eVic is Ubuntu.

It's still worth having for when you have to go somewhere but don't quite want to take the provari

I'm definitely more afraid to leave my house w/out my provari than I am of breaking it or losing it while out.
It is almost a needed accessory for out of the house. Very scary out there with no Provari.

The eVic looks pretty cool. I've watched some reviews and I've seen a lot of people say it has a lot of useless features though. Like a counter than averages out how long your puffs are, the date and time, your name..? Idk.. seems kind of weird. Other than the useless features it looks like a good mod though. I'm lovin my ProVari right now though.

Good luck. I have yet to have one last me half that long (Me? Bitter? Never.)
