Official ProVari Radius Thread - Part 2

[DPLongo22]

Hello everyone! I've spent the last three days reading through both Radius threads and I wanted to make an account to say hi and stop lurking. I haven't posted on a forum since I was a teenager, so please let me know if I'm breaking thread etiquette, and I apologize in advance.

Some background (if anyone cares, haha) : I got my Radius a few days ago after having broken my Vanilla mod. When I first started vaping, I went from a Blu-like setup straight to a ProVari within a few weeks. That was back in September of 2013. I didn't switch over to my Vanilla until about a year ago. Seeing as how my ProVari is still going strong, I decided to jump and get the Radius. It seems I waited just long enough to be able to customize it and now worry about waiting for weeks for it to show up at my door!

Anyways, I'm enjoying it so far and wanted to introduce myself. Hello from Eastern Iowa!

Welcome to ECF, jiggybee; and to The Wonderful World of ProVape. I think it's only appropriate that we provide you with a proper & formal welcoming. So, in your honor...



SOMEBODY had to...

Just wanted to chime in. I am a P3 owner and have owned it for a year or so. It was my first device ever. Since then I have acquired numerous devices but when I saw the Radius I wanted one. I read so many reviews and opinions where the Radius was frankly trashed because it is viewed as limited and uninteresting. I read some positive reviews too but the majority were not positive at all.

Still I form my own opinions and make my own decisions so I picked up the black onyx last Friday. I am extremely happy with it. So much so I bought the Radius in ghost white. One I keep at home and the other I take with me.

Right now I use a Vengeance tank by Council of Vapor with the 0.8 ohm coil. But I have ordered the Kabuki for both of them. One in stainless and the other in titanium. The Ti will go on my ghost white one I think. Looking forward to getting these.

Overall I am extremely impressed with the quality of the Radius. The stainless steel parts are so well made right down to the screws and the polycarbonate doesn't feel cheap. Its just a shame more people do not appreciate Provari. The Radius is unfairly compared to the higher wattage devices that seems to be the current trend and I think that's why it gets so much negativity.

I think the Radius was intended for those of us already familiar with Provari and the quality associated with it. I like that Provape isnt trying to compete with all of the 200 watt devices out there. And I own some of those very devices including a few DNA 200 devices that cost as much as a Radius. While they are good devices the Radius is in a different class.

I love the simplicity and quality and glad I pulled the trigger again on another Provari. The Radius is my favorite device so far along with my P3.

 

[Garibaldi]

Also can you use the MXJO 3000mah battery in the Radius? Or just stick to the included Samsung?

You can...

But, have a look here first:

A Great Source of Info.

Exactly right. And the hi wattage vapers are the most vocal of critics while still remaining only a small percentage of e-cig users.

Welcome to the thread, Garibaldi.

I think most here agree with your fine statement/mini review.

Nice.

I am in the same boat. I own 200w mods (3-4) a 75w mod (SX Mini which I love) and 12 Provaris including a Radius. I love all of my Provaris but the Radius is a tank and an awesome mod.

I have only been vaping for a little over 3 months, but Provape's quality can't be beat IMO and their customer service is also great.

More than one mod a week.

More than one mod a week.

Sick, I know.

I got amazing deals on every one of them, so no regrets!

Let's call it committed and you should be.

A Provari owner, who doesn't' follow the crowd, and makes up his own mind. guess that makes you one of "We the Elitist"! LOL!!! I have never been one to follow the crowd. Too much Alpha in me. When you follow the Herds, (crowds) trail, you will eventually step in their Plop!

I am a little OCD with "new hobbies".

I went a little mental, but glad I found Prevape. Not smoking is the only justification I need.

 

[Katdarling]

Your justification is pretty much like all of ours, I'm guessing, and it's a good one!
