Love my Provari, what about a back-up?

[hildicat]

Running my Provari with an 18650. Now I think I need a back-up APV, but hoping to save a little $. Is there another APV similar to the Provari that maybe doesn't have all the bells n whistles, but runs on a single 18650? Of course I'm looking for something a bit less expensive, otherwise I'd just get another Provari.

Same here...I'm holding out for Volcanoe's new LT that should be released in another week and a half or so. I have other backup devices--bottom feeders, and a few pv's that use 14500 batts, but I really need a backup with VV and that new LT seems to be just what I'm looking for! Here's a thread with some current chit chat about it: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...8-how-about-some-new-lavatube-discussion.html

Get the ego twist. It is not over budget but it perform well. But if you willing to get a provari also for the back up

I went the Provari mini route as a backup device, but since you're looking to save some money, have you perhaps considered the Vmax? Yes, the settings are a bit off but you should be able to "work" it.

If you remove the "money" issue, I would still recommend you get a Provari Mini as a backup.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. So far, the new LT is looking like the winner for me. I really like that it uses the 18650 as one of my criteria is being able to use the same batteries on both devices.

I just picked up a second ProVari for a "spare". There was a time I needed to send one back for warranty work. Nice having an identical unit for backup. JMHO

Cheers,

I too am guilty of jumping in for a 2nd ProVari (I got spoiled). Unfortunately my wife stole it, so now I'm back to a LT as my backup. There may be a 3rd ProVari in my future, if funds allow for it. I wasn't thrilled with the LT, but many people are so take that for what it's worth (not much, from a spoiled ProVari brat).

I've heard very good things about the VMAX, and many people are raving about both the V8 and Ego Twist, both of which are quite reasonably priced (in my opinion).

I loved my Ego Twists, and they were my backup vv devices, til my husband quit smoking and now he has claimed both of them. He's kind of hard on them though, and I'm wondering if they will survive the rest of the summer. I may end up getting 2 of the new LT's. I'm convinced he would lose or destry a Provari if I got him one of those, and then I'd have to hurt him.
