It might be the old version without the anodized atomizer, I know people were concerned about aluminum
juice leeching. I think it's a fair trade, it's cheaper than buying a
mod and a gen atty. As far whether I think it's worth the $199, I don't think it's in the same level as the other hybrids out there. I would rather have an iHybrid, Orion, or Zenesis. I like using my mechs but at the same time I use my Provari all the time also. I can't imagine getting rid of it. Hybrids seem to be the "it" thing at the moment since they're very hard to get at the moment. If your not using the Provari anymore and it's collecting dust, then go for it. Just know that it's a 18350 only mod at the moment and that most people use sub-ohms on hybrids, so expect to change
batteries often.
