When I got my Provari I was only planning on using it at home. {After seeing how sturdy and compact and plus it just performs better] I find myself using it all the time. Before I was using a combo of a MVP, a Vamo and a Spinner.

I was just wondering if anyone else does this and how well will the Provari hold up?

When I got my first Provari I was the same, not taking it out and about. After toasting several ego twists I decided what the heck if this Provari is supposed to be so durable why not use the thing instead of babying it? So for the last year or so I have been pretty much exclusively using the ProV. No problems so far. :)

Been using mine 15 months with zero problems and it was bought used at 6 months old.

I use it all day every day while my backups collect dust in my drawer.

My Provari even survived a side impact collision where it went flying out the window with barely a scratch. Even more importantly, it fired right up when I needed it the most and has worked flawlessly ever since.

I cant think of a better endorsement than that.

If your worried about losing it, Vaporheads.net has some nice leather pv holders that snap to your belt and will hold a Provari for under 15 bucks.

This is good to hear! It just seems so much easier now...all I do is put a carto tank, pack a extra cart tank and a spare battery and Im good to go. I tried going back to my Spinners that I usually used when out but they just don't cut it anymore! LOL

One more question...with the J wraps do they provide a better grip by chance. I have the satin silver and it can be a little slipperly .

I got the dragonskin jwrap for mine and it does make the grip a little better and not as cold.

Check out RTD Vapor as well, hard to beat their prices on batteries

Contact them directly.

Gary might have pulled them from his site as Im not seeing them with a search either.

Thanks for trying. I've been looking for a good leather holster for a standard cap Mini, but they're out of stock at SerenityGear and probably will be for a few weeks.

Wow... he makes some really cool stuff. I'd have to figure out how to to get him to make it exactly the right size. I might have to send him my Provari(gasp!).

I'd go to the hardware store and measure out an appropriately sized wooden dowel before I'd send my precious to a stranger.

I crack up when I read posts like yours. You buy a device that can withstand just about anything and you leave it at home. It only takes awhile before you figure out that a ProVari is the best thing when you go out. It's comforting to know that you're carrying a great vaping device and a defensive weapon at the same time. Not to mention that if you get trapped in a flood you can use the ProVari to bash out the windows in your car.
