Just got my 2nd Provari!

[ProsperityGal]

Ordered it on 9/1 and got it yesterday 9/6.

I got my first Provari in November of 2011. Sadly, it is not doing well and my backup - Darwin - also bit the dust. What to do what to do. Get a new Provari!

It is working so much better than my first one! I think there is something wrong with the circuit board with the first one and I might send it in for repairs.

I am happy happy happy with my new Provari!

Thank you Provape!

Congrats! Now that you got yourself covered, why not send the old one in? You never know, it might be a cheap fix.

Gotta have a backup! - I'd definitely send in the old one, ALL repairs are reasonably priced...and it'll likely work like new when it comes back...

Another vote for sending in the old one for a review. The most you would be out is the shipping costs if you decide not to have them do the repair.

If anything happened to either of my ProVari's I would definitely have them look at it for me.

Good luck and hope it is something minor!

Thanks for the replies you guys!

Definitely sending the original one back! I do not think that I can lose, especially since there is no other that I would rather have, as a prime unit or a backup!

At almost 3 years, pretty respectable for an immerging market.

I did look at other mods from different sellers, and, I just could not bring myself to buy them. Provape has been good to me and no other will siffice!

Prosperity, May I ask, is yours a V1 or a V2? If it is a V1, the upgrade is only 20$ Just a heads up for you if you were not aware.

 

[ProsperityGal]

As I recall, I purchased it as a V1. Then had a problem and sent it back and it was upgraded. This all happened in 2012.

The reason that I know it was upgraded is because the lower voltage limit was decreased.

What's the issue you're having?

And have you already given it a good cleaning & Noalox'ing?

 

[ProsperityGal]

I have been having battery problems for quite some time.

I have given it a good cleaning several times and used Noalox, then took the Noalox off. Cleaned the batteries and the spring. Expanded the spring, compressed the spring.

I have to make constant adjustments with the bottom screw in order to use it. It will work for a while and then I have to tighten or loosen it. It got to the point where I would hold the button down and adjust the screw until the light lit up.

It does not show the correct battery information. It kept telling me that the battery needed to be charged and when I put it in the charger it showed that no charging was needed..

When I put a freshly charged battery in it, it shows 3.6, 3.7 but never 4.2, 4.1. I thought that the batteries were starting to die.

My new Provari shows 4.1, 4.2 with charged batteries and I do not have to make any adjustments with the bottom screw and the batteries last a lot longer.

Congrats on your second one and I hope ProVape and fix the current one
