I made a deal with myself. "You can
buy the Provari if you promise to quit those last 6 or 8 cigs a day".
So far, it's been 5 days and I've never looked back. It was a non-event! I found that quitting those last crutch cigarettes was easy.
I justified the Provari on that premise. It was to be my reward for getting off the last cancer sticks in my life. I looked long and hard at the Lavatube and almost jumped. Two things steered me toward the Provari. One was stainless steel construction and the other was the V2's 3.5 amp current limit. A plus was stateside service and upgradability. They are upgrading V1's to V2 for 20 bucks these days. If the atomizer threads wear out, I can send it in and have the top cap replaced. I don't see that happening, though. SS threads will likely just wear the thread on the cartos, which are frequently replaced anyway.
The vape is the same on all vv
mods. I just liked the SS construction of the Provari and it was to be my new toy reward for completely letting go of
tobacco. Call it my graduation present to myself!
