Seriously Provape? That's like 3 emails for the same garbage sale/promotion. How's about 15% off and you keep the Chinese atty? Based upon the emails of the past week I think they may need to consider their strategy. :-x
On the flip side, Jackie likes her free nautilus and is grateful.

Just sayin'...

I'm sure she's in the minority else I suspect I wouldn't have received 3 emails on the same promotion. I'm glad she likes hers though. Whatever works to keep off the cigs is great.

Cool, many thanks...10 at a crack...that'll do fine!
Cheers.
PS I have to repeat though- I was surprised that going to Provapes "parts' section there werent USB chords for the radius- or these lil critters.

You're most welcome! If you don't mind a suggestion - I use Anker products for my tablet, phone, Radii etc. (Amazon again)

Many folks don't realize that a cheap USB cable actually limits the charging current available to the device and Anker's wallwart and kevlar-reinforced cable are an excellent combination.

So I much appreciate the link for the pluggy lugs. However, slap me, am I a Dupe? I've seen so much promo from ProVape about the mini USB and it being a 4 post as opposed to commonly used 2. I thought the stock cable with the Radius was the biggest disappointment :2c:. However, I'm not comfortable to replace with another without checking with the ppl that know the device better than me, the E.U. Thanks
:toast:

Both of those look good, although I'll probably go with the 1' version.

Hi All -

Quick question...I am looking for a good RTA to use with the Radius. I already have a Kayfun, but am looking for something different. I am after excellent flavor and something that looks good to compliment the Radius.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Holy cow. I got the "join the family" discount via email, and stealth and white/bronze radii are headed my way.

@Kh888 I plan to top the stealth with an all black Nahualon and the white/bronze with an all copper Nahualon (46mm height, I think). I like gennies, the shorter the better, and my N'lons give terrific flavor. I got Infinite versions from vaperoyalty for $10, and they're my daily drivers.

There's an invitation on PV's front page to join the family by entering your email address. I got an email with a use-it-quick coupon code for 10% off. Now I'm in the fam with a couple Radii... :D

This is a story about how my purchase of an SX Mini Q Class, led me to the purchase of two more Provari(s). When the Q Class arrived, I immediately tested it out with some of the same Nautilus tanks and juice that I have used on my Procyon and P3's. I tested it out with numerous settings of Watts and the SX Mini equivalent of ProVape's 'Boost'. Compared to the Provaris, my impression was "meh", just "meh". It couldn't achieve the same level of a satisfying vape as I got on the Procyon and P3. Just for fun, I put a Kabuki with a Clapton coil at 14 Watts on my recently acquired satin ProVari Classic. The result was Heaven! A vape so vastly superior to the SX, despite no 'Boost', that I kicked myself for spending the money on the Q Class. I vowed never to make that mistake again.

Feeling that I must make amends, I decided to order another Classic, this time a polished version, along with another P3 Kabuki. After all, the Classic was on sale.;)

Now, you may wonder how the Radius came into the picture. Well, I had been looking for one for a couple of months, but my push...I mean 'dealer' was constantly out of them. As I waited for my Classic to arrive, I decided to once again check to see if an Onyx Radius was in stock. Fully expecting to once again see them 'out of stock', I was astounded to see that they had 2 on hand!:shock: One of them is now on it's way to my trembling hands.

Some here may deservedly call me an idiot for spending a couple of grand on lesser mods. Guilty as charged. But if I have one thing to pass on to people looking for a world class vape, save your money and just buy ProVari from the start. It will be the cheapest money you will ever spend.

Interesting read...thank you for sharing.

I am mostly a squonker, but I do own a Radius and prior to the Radius, always had at least one Provari in my collection. Why? Because in my experience, they are the most consistent and smoothest vape of any regulated device I have tried. And, I have tried more than I can count.

Additionally, Provape just builds a quality product. They have excellent customer service and while they are not high wattage devices, they have more than enough power for the majority of vapers.

While my Radius does not get daily use, when it does get put to work, I can say I am very, very happy with its performance.

Idiot is such a strong word no one has the right to call another; especially when it comes to vaping.
Those other mods helped you find what works for you....it's really just that simple.
And a ProVari doesn't work for everyone which is also fine- it's called moving on to what does.

I agree 100%! Unfortunately a better quality product doesn't always equal to a better designed product. I'm stuck with other box modes because the Radius doesn't offer an easily replaceable battery or a descent size screen. The small Screen/Menu I could live with but the battery compartment...is a real shame because I also find Provari's to have a "smoother" vape.

The battery is designed to be recharged without removing it from the Radius, with the ability to change it when the battery's performance is reduced. It's not meant to be replaced on a daily basis.
