@Marc411 @jwbnyc @Lemwise ...not knocking the SX because I was extremely close to pulling the trigger on one 3 weeks ago until I heard major issues with the paint chipping/flaking off. Some really upset people out there on the finish. You guys have this issue too? I also didn't get one because then the ML was coming out and then the Radius was announced.

Then I didn't have money for any of them. LOLOL



Yes, mine shipped today. So there two more chances to win. I picked black. My beta is Titanium but that's not offered yet. :rolleyes:

The SX does have paint issues, but other than that it's built like a tank and gives consistent and very good performance. In addition it has a relatively wide power range. So it is undeniably a good purchase. Having said that I have noticed that watt for watt and using the same atty, the vape quality of the Provari is better. It is a slight but discernible difference that you will notice especially if you're a flavor junkie. When I asked around on ECF, Battitude pointed out that it has to do with the frequency the Provari chip uses for regulation which is much higher than most chips on the market, hence the better performance. I am not sure what's the frequency of the YiHi SX chip though.

Well the cabernet model caught her fancy. I think that's in her future. She'd like a box mod w/ a replaceable batt. That said ... I did get a slight 'eye roll' when I said I'd be ordering one today as she said ... you really want one.

I do feel a bit guilty. I gave her a blue istick 40 for her birthday a week ago. And now I'll be getting a Radius next month for my 4 year vapeversary.

You sure do have a very patient and understanding wife. :)

I do the same thing with all things vape related. I don't have anyone looking over my shoulder, though, so have to listen to that little voice in my head that tells me when to stop. :)

Hey, where can I get one of those little voices? :D



please don't hate me if I win a Provari Radius this Friday :blink:

Nevah. IMpastable, Willy the Z.


When Willy Zee passes, I will Build him a coffin of the FINEST 100 year old oak, hand planed to a lustrous finish... Which I will plant myself after the first thaw of 2016.;)

Good info and thanks! I would be pretty upset, personally, if a mod had bad finish issues. I just think that's a bad over site.

Thank you. 45 yrs of smoking and 2+ PDD when I made the switch. I'm pretty pleased to say the least to be coming up on 4 years w/o a smoke.

Great job. We both are in the 40 plus years of smoking 2 packs a day.

My M Class hasn't chipped or anything.

I think that was an issue with some of the early ones, which mine is, but no problems yet.
