HAPPY birthday! You're ahead of 2 of us now.

3 of us

3 of us

There's a cure for that, ya' know? It's called "checkout!" Just sayin!

 

[Pinggolfer]

Uh, you couldn't push me out of ma' chair with a bulldozer! I knew you couldn't sit on the sidelines on the Radius long, if at all. Any more than I could!!

What a nice B-Day gift to yourself!!

RB I waited it out a full day. Birthday sure did come in handy though.

Remember that stubborn streak I was tellin' 'bout the other day? Keep pushin' .... ROFLMAO

Bettah, Ms. Robin?

Much! pssst there is a fourth ^^

 

[Siam Diesel]

Good night all...fading fast. Need a good night's sleep after the late one yesterday.

Happy Birthday again, Ping...don't forget to have a piece of cake with a candle!!

 

[dhaiken]

Ha! I have held out for a full 24 hours so far!
But I bought a dna 200 yesterday out of frustration.

Challenge accepted! You may be stubborn, but I'm equally persistent! Does that cancel the two of us out??

My guess is your guess, too. I cannot imagine this choice by Provape was made to save a buckaroonie. No way.

Provape is still a business and the 25r is still an exceptional battery. Saving 2 dollars per device sold adds up quickly. Say they sell 30,000 this year. That's an extra 60,000 dollars. Close to two employees salaries. Provape is all about safety, but they also aren't dumb.

Ha! With tail between his legs, SR, pouts and slinks off to his corner.........LOL

 

[AstroTurf]

Congrats. I love kids, right up to the the time they start to talk...

Thats the best time in my opinion...

They early on only speak truth and honesty. But, as we get older. Well we know what happens then.

I'm not Zen, but I have an opinion.


1) I'd get an LG HG2 if you run anything else that takes flat-tops. They are out-performing all my other batteries (Sammy 25's and VTC-5's) in terms of run-time. Especially run-time above say 3.75.

2) I would NOT assume that means it will improve run-time in a Radius. There's always been a "rumor" that the P2 chip was literally designed around the specific drain characteristics of an AW battery. If that's the case, it may well be that the Radius is somehow optimized to get the best performance out of a Samsung 25R.

3) Contrary to a prior post, I find it VERY unlikely that the Samsung battery was selected to save a $ over another battery. My guess is that it had to do with availability, consistency, and performance under testing.

So - I'd see what kind of run-time I got with the included battery, and then try something 3000 Mah (probably the LG) and see whether there was any difference. My guess is that it would be negligible, but I'd probably give it a try and see.

Yep, my motto's always been....."when in doubt go the Provape route!" I'm sure the Samsung will be more than adequate for my vape style and wattage levels.

Thanks Train2

Agreed absolutely 100% with both of you. But since Provape are the ones who got me into AW batteries in the first place, and the 3,000 mAh is brand new (might not have been ready during development to be tested), and has a 20 amp rating, I'm confident I'm making a good choice.

When the day comes for me to replace the Samsung in my Radius, you guys will have figgere'd it all out for me!

Ya Know...

I think, like everything else, ProVape is giving a Very Conservative estimate of 3 to 4 weeks.

Would not surprise me for those that ordered on day one to see them in 7 days at the most.

Just my thinkin, Jim

Sure hope so. I was beeing way optimistic and checked my inbox 1st thing this morning for tracking.
