As DP said I wasn't sent a blem. I'm still wondering if I should send it back for a real blem.

Wonder if they let you choose what kind of blem? Scratch, dent, paint run, etc...

I often wonder if they accepted my order only to discover they didn't have a blem so they just shipped one from the good pile.

Ok folks, need a little guidance. Picked up a P3 last weekend, and it performs as expected with one serious concern...it eats batteries! Boost mode is OFF. Fully charged VTC5 only gets me 6-7 hours of vape time @ 20w. I can put the same fully charged battery in a DNA30 or SX350 device, using the same atty & coil, and run 15-16 hours. Is there something wrong, or is this normal?

I will not be clogging the check-out lanes tomorrow. This is difficult for me but I am going to wait for more color choices. I have a preference for bronze [the color not the friend of Robino1, though I am certain that he is a gentleman, scholar and an overall fine human being]. As I write this, I realize that I may weaken and go for the black.

I swear my Blem 2.5 wasn't! I sold it (it was my 2nd 2.5) to help fund my P3, but I was never able to find a blemish on it anywhere.

Don't know but I don't vape at 20 watts either. My vtc4 lasts from 5:30 a.m. to 11:00-midnight before needing recharged.

20w is the maximum a P3 can operate so you're working that battery pretty hard in a Provari. Maybe try a different brand like an AW and see if you get different results.

Not sure, other than a back option, I really don't know kind of avoided reading about it, wanted to be surprised. LOL

I had the back option in version 35 as I recall. I thought version 34 was the beta, version 35 was the dealer shipping release, and version 36, according to a small document on the Provape web site lists version 36 with "small cosmetic changes". Maybe they tweaked the look of the icon arrows or some other graphic(s). And who knows when that started to go into production units... It will be interesting to see what I get too.

v31 = beta version most people had/have (including mine)
v35 = release version
v36 = hasn't been clarified yet

Vape360 - Perhaps a more detailed changelog would be nice to add to the website... I'm waiting to upgrade my beta 'till you announce the brightness bug fix. For all I know, that's what you consider a "small cosmetic change" ;)

My bets would be that there's nothing wrong with the P3, but there's something wrong with your other devices. I'd put money on the fact that you're getting 20W from the P3, but under load the DNA30 or SX350 might not be reaching 20W.
