It's threads like these that really sell Provape ... I remember reading all the positive posts about the Provari when I was looking for a backup to that eVic.

The only negative comments came from ProVape bashers who went on and on about how people only bought Provaris to show how elitist they were vaping.

And none of them actually owned a Provari ... get 2 Vamos instead they are cheaper and just as good.

It was not hard to see the bashers knew nothing and the Provari owners were all saying how awesome the Provari is.

I remember the old Provari saying very well ... OK, I Get It Now :)

This is precisely why I went from Blu to Provari! I read all those threads. I was determined to quit smoking and didn't want to keep throwing money at things that would break or that I would likely want to upgrade over time. My atties have changed over the years (PT2s to RTAs) but my Provaris remain. P3 Ti on deck now!

In the last year I had a 20w something or other, and after 8 months the 510 connector gave out, I replaced it with a Siegelei 30w mini, after 3 weeks it fried. I decided then, no more. The Provari 2.5's I have are about three years old, and of course the P3, and Classic are pretty new, but they all fire every time I pick one up. Buy once, cry once. Just don't trust the boards on the other vv/ vv/vw's.
How many times do you go thru the threads on ecf and see, my so and so just broke, or my so and so is auto firing, ect, ect.

Most of what you have described is either due to user error, or bottom of the barrel devices. I have a P3 and V2.5 that just sits at the back of my closet. My main ADV device now is a Yihi SX Mini M-Class that I have been using for 5 months now, it is all beat up and has been dropped many times, still works just like day one. My wife's Sigelei 30W is still working perfectly fine after 8 months. She also has a Sigelei 75w, and its been fantastic 2 months later. I'm not bashing, but it really irritates me when people are afraid to go outside the Provari Circle. I know you ventured out a little bit. Trust me, I was one of those people that bashed every other device out there, and pointed and laughed when someone would come into the store with an IPV or Sigelei device or better yet a VAMO lol. Until I started venturing out, it really opened up my eyes of all the great quality devices that are out there. And to me, Sigelei and IPV are not quality devices, oh hell nooooo they ain't lol.

After starting out with a 401 kit in 2010 that fell apart in a month, it took a year to try ecigs again, with a 510 carto based setup. The chinese menthol was good enough in those cartos to make the switch to vaping immediate and easy. After moving to egos, my first real mod was a Roughstack Maxi, which I loved even though I had to replace the switch every few months.

I danced around with most every type of mod after that, but always on the cheaper side. Wood mods, boxes, silver bullet, lavatube, vmax and mechanicals all got a bit of time. I got used to dealing with stripped connectors, torn insulators, bad buttons, shorts and broken wires.

When the VV chinese mods came out I thought that was great, and pretty much equivalent to a ProVari in performance. The choppy pwm in those mods made my liquids taste burnt and in my case was irritating to my throat. I went back to mechanicals to get cleaner power and durability.

A good friend gifted me his beaten up V2 and I experienced smooth power in a VV device for the first time, and I knew my hunt was over. It continues to get used and abused daily.

Even though I carry my V2 without a backup device fearlessly, I naturally wanted more, so a V1 and 2.5 Ti are also waiting in the wings. You can never have too much of a great thing!

Amen to that dude! When my 2.5 broke I borrowed someone's and tried a DNA mod and that's what woke me up. The flavors just popped at 30w the same juice tasted alot bolder and richer. I use my p3 when I have a business lunch or meeting mostly because its appearance is more professional.

I just gave away my Vaporshark RDNA30 to my cousin. Thinking of purchasing the DNA200 from them, since their devices are top notch. Except for the exterior, the rubber finish is good for about 3 weeks lol

Hmmm...

Multi-button interface, usb charge/update capability. That's all I could definitively glean from the video. I'm not convinced it's a squonk - that window looks very similar to the display on the P3 and the knob on the bottom could simply indicate user-changeable batteries.

Yeah, probably just wishful thinking...
