Official ProVari Radius Thread - Part 2

[Dr. Tranny]

Hello,

I will be purchasing Jackie a Radius next month and am going to put a USB wall adapter out in the Jeep for when we are out of town. I already have a car lighter adapter out there for some reason.

Anyway, my question is: Is there a recommended amp output, i.e. 1 amp for those adapters or should any 'ol gas station adapter work?

Also, is there anywhere on the Radius I should apply NO-OX?

Thank you and have a great weekend. Please remember our fallen soldiers, it's not their fault our government sucks. We just need to make sure their sacrifices weren't in vain...

Most garden variety 12v USB adapters have at least a 1 amp output, but if you plan to charge more than 1 device (i.e. multiple Radii, Radius and phone, etc.) you'll want to make sure the out put is 2 amps or higher to cover the extra load.

I've been using ANKER wall warts (2 Amp) and ANKER USB kevlar reinforced cables for a long time. Many people don't realize that a low quality cable can limit the current supplied to the device.

Will you guys help convince me to buy a radius? I don't need one, but really want one. I need a nudge lol. What do you love best about your radius?

Comfy size with rounded edges, solid mod, but not a brick, very durable finish and its a ProVari, too. The bigger fire button, usb charging capable, 3 button system and dispay are a delight.

Convinced yet?

Awesome. After I have some catfish for dinner, I'm gonna place an order on the purple one. Ooh this is kinda exciting!

It is a Worthy Device.

What is your vaping style?

Thanks, Jim

Inhale vapor, exhale.

I vape MTL, 12-24mg (usually 12), fruit-based flavors for the most part, generally around 15 watts. My main setup is an ipv d3 with a Nautilus mini.

It sounds as though the Radius may be a good match/purchase for you then.

I like Purple!!!

Boost mode FTW. Best mod IMHO. Solid rig. Can't go wrong.

With boost mod, let's say 18 watts, what kind of battery life is to be expected? I found the P3 to be horribly inefficient, in any 18xxx mode, where as my other single 18650 mods can go 2 days before charging. I love the design of the Radius, unfortunately my P3 experience is scaring me off.

I am confident that a battery lasts longer in my Radius than in one of my P3's. I usually have a few mods going during the day, so can't offer anything more concrete than that.

Your mileage may vary, but I can close to a full day out of my Radius. Figure about 5ml or so at 15 watts.

Solid build. Beautiful design. Feels perfect in the hand. Subtle and sophisticated. Perfect for a night on the town or an evening in your favorite chair on a Netflix binge. I have a pair. A menage a trois may be in the future. Always have backup...

I usually get about a day and a half at 20w with a 0.8-0.9 ohm coil, boost level 3.

I'll have to read up on the boost mode. I was nervous about the battery life, but as long as it gets me through either a 9 hour work day or an evening at home, I'm good. I probably won't take it to work, but you never know.

Try to loosen the build cup and then fit the base, and then fit the build cup. I have a P3 and a Radius but the center pins are a little different in heights, this works for me.

Doesn't help - with the build cup completely removed, it still will not screw onto the converted 2.5s but fits just fine onto the Radii ...

I run Boost at 1 and really have not noticed any significant impact to battery life. Otoh Im only running at 8 watts so battery life is never really an issue. I'll run my Kabuki out of juice before my LG 3k gets below 75%.
