The fire bar is mushy and unresponsive.

WOW!!!...Zazie...It's probably a case of "Different Strokes for Different Folks"...but...I find my P80's Fire Panels to be EXTREMELY precise (with an audible click) and RESPONSIVE...and (in addition to their hand comfort) are one of the reasons my P80's are my FAVORITES...

(Wonder if yours is working correctly???)


Have you ever ordered from Vaper City? I checked the prices on Vapecrawler

Well Katya...I've never really ordered from Vaper City...I use it as a "price search/comparison" site...like Vapecrawler ...with a few different vendors searched...

Agreed. I like Wismec mods and love my Presa.

I'm waiting for them to restock--I like the silver one that's out of stock ATM. FT may take forever, especially with the Chinese New Year right around the corner. Vaper Direct is in Florida. :)
I also found the fire bar on the p80 clicky and very responsive. It's my fave feature of the p80

    The Vapour Pro, on the other hand, continues to impress. Its fire bar is great, and the buttons, though also tiny, are sturdy and responsive. The screen is quite dim (virtually indecipherable in brighter light) and the type small, but, because I'm a wattage gal, I'm not too bothered by this, since I can see clearly the only number I care about. Setting TC variables and the like could be hard on the eyes, though. Overall, the whole mod is solid and feels good in the hand.

    Just for fun and window shoppingness, link please, Zazie?

    I guess I got a lemon, then. Kind of prefer that to be true. I was mystified by all the glowing reviews, because this thing works and feels like junk. Better that it be a dud than everyone else be bonkers.

    :D Maybe it's just not your cup of tea, Zaz. Everything about vaping, from hardware to eliquids to the way we inhale and exhale is totally subjective, as you know.
    I am probably the only person here who was never a big fan of ProVari. :blush: I know, I know, blasphemy. ;)

    Don't get me wrong, it was a great mod, a must have when I got it. But the mini's battery life (18350) was pathetic, while a full size Provi with a Kayfun on top felt like a lightsaber. And those round robin adjustments drove me nuts. I also had all kinds of problems with that spring in the extension cap--it kept coming out, for some reason, and I could never screw it back into place. So I had to buy another extension cap even though I had extra springs. :lol: And then none of my newer, larger diameter atties would fit--I was told I had to buy a beauty ring--and most of those beauty rings didn't fit properly either. I remember mile-long threads about ProVari beauty rings. I'm glad I found a new happy forever home for it.

    I also drive a Prius and love it. :D

    I got one and love how it looks and LOVE the fire bar. As @Brewdawg1181 said, it's not the fastest firing mod, but arctic fox helped with that a bit. The only con for me was it's battery life wasn't all that good, but again arctic fox helped with that (and turning off their flashing led lights) ;)

    10 points if you can guess what RTA it is :lol:
    I just installed Arctic fox on my picos and P80. Totally worth it, particularly for TC.

    I was going to say (yesterday), "Just go for it, Katya. You know as well as I how subjective EVERYTHING "vape" is."

    If I like it, I try it. If I don't like it, I get rid of it.

    Of what, my dear? My Vapour Pro? If so, I can't oblige, I'm afraid. I'm one of the few people left on the planet who has no contraption for taking pictures.

    Hey Zazie - am I correct that you're referring to the Vaporesso Amour Pro? I couldn't find a Vapour Pro either, which is likely why @Katdarling asked...

    I keep looking at this tiny mod, it's so cute and I want to get it but I already have 2 mods. Does anyone have one, and does it work good? any probs with it?

    Not too many pages back there's some solid info. If I recall, there may have been an issue or three...

    Nope. Really don't like one button interfaces. By the time they moved past that, well, I already had a dozen or so mods. :facepalm:

    The size, in that era, didn't bother me too much though, as I was using the other light saber then, SVD2 ;)
