has anyone one else have this problem? had it for about 2 months and when i first got it the logo was light now its just about gone? btw its a mini

I have a Satin Finish Provari and it is Over a Year Old. The Logo looks about the same as the day I got it.

What type of Finish do you have on yours?

thanks this is what it looks likeView attachment 121626

The photo is a little Blurred but it does look like the Laser Etching wasn't very Deep and has worn off.

I would contact Provape and send them a slightly better picture. I wouldn't be surpised if the Replaced your tube for you.

Sounds like the Etch just wasn't done deep enough.

Wait to see what provape has to say.

i just got a email from them (Yes, the logo fading is normal on the silver ProVari. When we laser etch the logo onto the side of the tube, there is a carbon buildup that is left behind from the burning process. Unfortunately, as the logo gets rubbed and handled with time, the carbon buildup is rubbed off.) but only afer 3 months?

3 Months seem a litle short.

A Question. Do you hold your Provari a lot?

The logo on a ProVari is like the wear indication on some toothbrushes
When the color fades its time throw it away and buy another one

That is Hysterical.

:D
