Official ProVari Radius Thread - Part 2

[Knifemaker]

IKR!!!!! It's right up there with watching a bad TV show & hoping it'll get better the longer you stay tuned in.

Lo! Ain't it the truth!

The funny thing was he listed the benefits of the poly-carbonate, yet STILL wished for metal
guess he likes mods to scratch and dent up....likes the "well used" look

Or paint flaking off like on the MX or wearing off like on a whole LOT of mods!
I guess a dented, scratched, paint peeling, and wearing thru looks so much better that a poly body that looks good. Day in, and Day out.

I think it took some guts for ProVape to go with polycarbonate for the Radius. They must have known a lot of people equate "road hugging weight" with quality, even though there is no correlation. This is not cheap plastic they are using here. It's not going to flex in your hand like alot of those plastic battery covers on the imports.

The old "Road Hugging Weight" never worked either. Weight is enemy of both the suspension, aerodynamics, tires, and Horse Power to weight ratio. The only thing weight ever did, is guaranteed that when a slide started, it was almost impossible to stop. This is why High Performance Auto's use such exotic materials in their chassis and body as Alu. Ti. Carbon Fiber, and quite a few other weight saving materials.

I would assume the same thing. And of course when you look at it in terms of percentage, a 5 watt increase at 35 watts is much lower (noticeable) than a 5 watt increase at 15 watts. If someone is vaping at, say, 20 watts I kind of get the feeling boost is rather un-noticeable. Just a guess as I've never tried it.

With some atties, a mere 1-2 wat can make a HUGE difference! With a low watt atty, such as the Kabuki, I see a difference in .2-.4 watts with my liquid.

First rule of advertising: take a products negatives and turn them into positives, ie; road hugging weight.

Hmmm... I loved to know why he didnt post it on Youtube considering thats the first place many go to first. TYJ dot com I never go to.

Note 5!!!

It's on Youtube.

Thanks, JWB. I'll remember that "Road Hugging Weight" descriptor if I ever find myself unexpectedly on Match.com.

Yes, I will!

Been there, done that. It doesn't work...

Are you certain that the problem wasn't in your choice of fonts? Because fonts DO matter, y'know.

No, I think the font was good. Maybe it was my profile picture.

crap.

I think I sent a duplicate entry to Phil's contest by mistake.

Right? Right.

 

[JUMA55]

Way, way, way too late to the point where it is near meaningless.

That's an hour of my life I won't get back.

 

[DPLongo22]

He said it feels good in the hand

Demetri?

You guys planned that, yes?

WELL played (regardless).

 

[Mike Geaney]

Pretty sure that "road hugging weight" may imply a low(er) center of gravity which is beneficial in the automotive world.

I really liked the review and found it both helpful and informative. I am no longer sitting on the fence. A nice black Radius, as well as a P3 Kabuki, shall be mine for my vapeaversary in April.

I said left, My wife said right.

I better let her know.

LOL!!! Now it is.
I got the notification he uploaded but I'd already watched 1/2 of it on TYJ. Got busy & willtry to watch the other 1/2 later today.

LMAO!

Of course this guy most likely didn't have anything close to a Provari in his pants pocket, but it's stories like this that don't help us at all......
