wow. now i truly, truly, truly understand why provari is the holy grail! this PV oozes quality from the aesthetics to the feel to the heft of the device.

but i had a question for you guys: is it just me or does vaping the provari on 5V feel and taste differently from vaping, let's say, the lavatube at 5V? if you guys have experienced this, why do you think this holds true?

I don't know if it's just me but the vape seems smoother, the taste richer, and the plumes of vapor much larger. man, i can never recommend a non-provari PV to another person again...

There about the same. I have both. If you watch Pbsuardo's YouTube review on both he breaks it down. Provari set to 5v gives ya 5. The lava "weakens" around the 5-6 range & also it does if battery isnt full. I'm taking it outside & I don't career it gets scratched up battery a bit weak. Provari keepsv voorweredo

I honestly can't compare it to a lavatube as I've never used one. I have only held them. I do know the weight difference is astounding. I have seen the videos of the lavatube not holding the voltage though, so I would agree that's why the taste would be so different. This is the only device I've ever consistently used and I love it. I've never had a want or need to try the others since it makes me happy.

My local shop lets me sample juices on their Ego batteries and my ProVari and I can tell you there is a huge difference between those two devices. The owner had never tried VV before I brought the Vari in, she loved it so much she's starting to carry lavatubes now though. Her husband said he would love to carry the ProVari also but the price he can get them for wouldn't leave enough profit margin to justify it. So I would say there is something to this VV thing haha.

Leaking didn't have to do with the device (it was your carto/tank/atty), but showing 5V and not delivering it does.

You won't have that issue with the Provari. It adjusts for the load and delivers whatever voltage you set to the coil.

Watch this if you haven't: A PBusardo Review - The Provari V2 - Provape - YouTube

The electronics in the Mini are identical to the full-size V2 he reviews.

Way off topic, but I gotta say I love your sig picture, I drive an Evo IX.

Back on topic:

The Provari rolls the Lavatube because it holds the voltage that you set it to, I'm not sure if there's another device that truly gives you that exact accuracy the Provari does.

I've been happy with mine for half a year now, and I don't think there's a PV out on the market right now that could replace my Vari.

Thanks man. The white VIII RS is my current one. My third in all. Had a TB IX SSL first, then my wife got a RR X. Then I sold mine and got the RS. I love me some Evos. I am an Admin for a regional forum, you can Google my screen name and find it I am sure hahaha.

On Topic: I agree with your PV tastes as well.

Edit: Hmm, appears my sig doesn't show if posting from my phone.
