Received my new Provari today. Well, I guess it is true. You get what you pay for with Provari. I've been a Vamo user for a few months and never experienced anything different (except my mechs). I am overwhelmed with the vape I am getting from the Provari. Very pleased with my first impressions. And by the way, I am having no problems with adjusting to the new menu for those that think it is a big issue. The only way I can describe my experience is it is more intense than I have received from my vamo. I'm not knocking the vamo, it is good for what it is and the price but I couldn't have made a better move. Thank all of you that provide information on the forums, it was very helpful in the decision to make the move to Provari.

Got my ProVari today also, the threading is superb on these things, and you are spot on about the menu, very easy to use.

I put the 2.4 ohm AGI on it, very nice, I then changed the Zmax to the same voltage and put the AGI on it, did the same with the Vamo. I really couldn't tell the difference. Many claim they can, could be I am not quite as taste sensitive as some. Anyway, really liking the Provari, and I have no plans to abandon my other devices, I rotate, I have up to 8 things going at once, including a mech.

In my experience and that of others as well, the ProVari really shines compared to other VV devices when using cartos/carto tanks. I'm not sure why this would be, but I find it to be true.

It might just be a Connecticut thing, but I agree with this statement wholeheartedly.

Just, whatever you do, DON'T PUSH THE RED BUTTON INSIDE.

Trust me.

Maybe it is just because of the brand-new AW 18490 bats FOR ME, but I am amazed at the efficiency of the ProVari.
The batteries last a looong time and yet still recharge VERY quickly. It provides solid power until it warns you when it is time
to recharge. I certainly expect that the batteries will slowly degrade over time, but the cost of two replacements of the
AW 18490s is still cheaper than most of the alternatives.

No menu update. Many people say it is hard to get use to the single button control. I was just saying I have no problem with the single button menu control.

Ditto, it's not as easy as my eVic, but it's quite friendly for being one button...

I'm loving the button action, not clicky but definitely a positive feel to it...

That and also the heft and the threads... Sooooo smooth, it did feel like a stereo volume knob...

The power delivery is also consistent, can feel it in every pull...

My only gripe is that I can't use my Samsung with it, I'm gonna solder a small nipple on my flat top so I can interchange it with my flat top...

Currently, I'm using the button top AW 2000mAH 18650 button top that I bought with it, but my eVic is now a permanent mini, so my Provari will inherit my eVic's default battery...

Just realize doing that will void your warranty with Provape.

A 18350 battery in my mini last longer than a 18650 in my Lavatube V2 (it uses the 33.3Hz chip) so yes it is very efficient.
