Official ProVari Procyon Page

[Garibaldi]

I am REALLY on the fence here. I think the Procyon is a logical step. I love my P3 and still use it even though I have two Radii but I still enjoy my P3. In fact I ordered my third Kabuki tank for my P3. And now the Procyon is available.

I am trying to compare the Procyon to the P3 rather than the Procyon to the Radius. Compared to the P3 it is a big step up in power. But I cant help compare it to the 40 watts of the Radius.

Anyway....I dont know what tank I would run on the Procyon but I have several options I think that would work. Of course there is the Kabuki but I run that 11 watts so the Procyon is probably overkill for that. I could use my Silo Beast with coils ranging from 0.5 to 1.8, my CoV Vengeance with the 0.8 coil, and a few others.

So here is the question I have....is the Procyon more power efficient than the P3 if they are using the same battery?

The single 18650 doesnt bother me depending on how the Procyon uses battery power. For example I have a Project Sub Ohm S80 (80W) and it uses a single 18650 battery and it lasts a good while and I am vaping it at about 30-35 watts with a Vengeance tank with a .2 ohm coil. And while I dont use it, when I worked in a vape shop I sold a lot of the VTC 75W devices. All these use single 18650 (granted all use a different chip than the Procyon)

The Procyon is attractive because it offers more power and more flexibility (power wise) than my P3. Even if the Radius can get an upgrade to 50W (which would be nice just to have) I still like the tube design of the Procyon. And I like the all satin stainless too.......literally sitting here trying to decide if I am going to just pull the trigger and order one.

I just like the fact that they re-designed the end cap and would love to see this end cap available for the P3, please.

@Vape360 any news on any new P3 threaded tanks or RBA's coming out?

I wonder if we can talk @Zen~ into making a sub tank with P3 threading

He can call it the Subuki

Welp........brought the P3 in this morning and showed it to the guy in my office who wants to stop smoking and BAM, he bought it on the spot.

So, I guess I'll have to be a buyin' a Procyon in the very near future!

Hello, I have not heard if Zen is working on such item, but next time we talk, I'll mention it to him

I like it, but other than the increased wattage, how does it compare to the ol' 2.5? I do love tube mods, they are less obvious. I am guessing this would be a better buy than the p3?

Good "problem" to have.

Here's how I see it. Take the 2.5, put in a much better board, with variable watts, a better menu system, higher watts (you don't have to use all those extra watts - but the day might come when they could come in handy) and a much better bottom cap system to ensure the best connection possible and you have the Procyon. For us tootle puffers a 18650 Procyon should last a couple days without needing a battery change too!

I haven't read the whole thread, so this may have already been asked and answered:

Is it named for Procyon the star or Procyon lotor?

 

[The Ocelot]

Just a suggestion...

I think the term "Variable Wattage" should be retired. "Programmable Wattage" is more accurate.

I don't believe they said where the name came from and I'm fine if you'd like to change the term to "Programmable Wattage!" Though I spect you'll have to reprogram most of the vaping universe!

Maybe from Pro (Provape) and cyon, an obsolete spelling of scion which can mean descendant. So Pro descendant?

Even if'n this isn't what made it be called Procyon, I really like the thought and it makes sense!

I'm going to guess by the little star engraved on it, and the starry background on the web page, that it's named after the star.
Just a hunch.
