Now that rumors of Provari going out of business are true. :-( What's a good replacement device?
I have heard Dicodes out of Germany offer a high quality product. Perhaps I will do that in the future if needed.

I second the recommendation for Dicodes. They are a provape with german engineering. Exceptionally well made, smooth, consistent, and reliable. I haven't tried their tube mods but the same chip is in the three boxes I have from them. Along with great power regulation, they are also capable of temp control and it is the best I have ever used.

And an even stronger recommendation for cremedevape.com in the UK if you decide to buy. They have the absolute best customer service of any vape shop I've ever dealt with. The GBP is pretty low against the dollar so the pricing can be attractive. Be aware that unless you are logged in with a US account the prices will be about 20% over what you will be charged since the VAT is not charged to US residents.

I have to third the Dicodes idea. I've been using a Dani Box for just over a year and just picked ip a Tiny tube mod. Its like a ProVari Plus. I'm glad I picked up a couple extra 2.5's before they shut the doors. What a loss for the Vaping Community.

Even If one offered 350$ for my device, I wouldn't sell my ProVape device (any of ones I have) but If I did't have any, I would even pay more to get one.

Ya just can't stomp on all the roaches when you switch the light on...

I have not bought from this company, but someone in the saloon said they had with no problems. I wouldn't wait though, everything Provape is going to be gone soon.

Oh what A sad day for vaping. I might have gotten one of the last replies from Provape Support. I opened a ticket confirming the size of the o-ring (just me, I always like to ask independent sources to see if I get the same answer, no offense to the kind folks who answered me in this thread).

Here's what Brandy told me.

Unfortunately we don't have any extra o-rings otherwise I would be happy to send you some. It can be done without taking it apart but it does require some patience and a small pair of needle noise pliers.
Here are the specs for the ring:

size (AS568A Industry Standard Uniform Dash Number) = 004
Cross Section = 1/16"
ID = 5/64"
OD = 13/64"
material = Silicone-70

I've also attached a picture, I hope that's at least somewhat helpful. Thank you for the very kind words :)

Best Regards,
Brandy

I guess this is the same o-ring you are looking for. As I understood is the same size and material

AS004-70S | AS568-004 Silicone O-ring 70 Durometer (VMQ)

But I have a question for you Do we need to have spare O-rings for the Radius? Has some one had the need to replace it?

You would possibly never need to replace, but it wouldn't hurt to have a few around.

I agree w/ oplholik, probably a rare occasion to have to replace one. My new Radius had a lot of brass colored metal dust and particles around/covering the o-ring. When I was cleaning that off, I saw that the o-ring was split. Have no clue what/why that brass colored stuff was about.
