Official ProVari Radius Thread

OK, since it's not a lipo, I need some new batteries. Samsung 25R's, or something else. I'm a bit out of the loop on this stuff.

I personally think the 25R's are a great battery and a great value. Readily available, inexpensive and stable in my experience.
I had a mech stay fired on unbeknownst to me until one discharged down to almost 2 volts. No safety issues then or since.
Charged right back to 4.2 w/no degradation in performance.

This is a pretty good thread about the Samsung 25R

If it was up to me, I would go with a odd number, just to be different and throw people off
Like a 47 watt box
Or better yet, a 69 watt box
The Box that's made for 69, the name sales itself

I know a number of boxes like that...

Zen, I'm totally in your corner here about safety and dumbing devices down to protect us all from the idiocy of the lowest common denominator, but when you make statements like "And my eyes tell me it can't fit two batteries... so, that's just really not going to happen," I gotta wonder what's actually going on in your head. I know you've seen the pictures Nick Green took after he pried the cover off the iStick 50 he dropped in the ocean. The "lipo pack" in that mod is nothing more than two 18650s hard-wired together. The mod itself is literally the exact size of a plastic 2-cell battery case, and manages to incorporate not only a dual 18650 setup, but also a USB charge port, along with the chip, screen, connectors, etc. If Joyetech can make that work, there is no reason whatsoever that Provape can't.

These same iStick 50's which have several threads about them autofiring until they vent?

Your point?

Your point?

Why did you state enough said to declare your point, if apparently it wasn't enough said?

 

[AstroTurf]

The next key in the equation is amp limit.... I can see 50w if the amp limit is low.
To take the tests by mooch as a baseline, the 20a batteries are readily available Provape being Provape how close to the mark would you estimate them to go?

13 Amps for the win... Alex!

I hope the Radius goes lower than .5 ohm
It's not that I need to go lower, but the factory coils have a +/- when they are made. And I've gotten 5 packs of coils where all 5 were a little under .5 ohm like around .497 and wouldn't fire on my devices made to only go down to .5 ohm
I can understand for safety reasons they might not want to go lower, but how much would the Safety drop if they made it read a .490 ohm coil?

.3 ohms for the win... Alex!

Because I said enough on why I would buy one. For me, the points were enough for me to say. Sorry if you have an issue with why "I would buy one."

 

[AstroTurf]

I will buy one for one reason and one reason only...

It's a ProVari.

Nuff Said!!!

That was kind of my point!

 

[FringeChief68]

I was saying why I would buy one. For me, the points were enough for me to say. Sorry if you have an issue with why "I would buy one."

My personal reasons
1. It's a ProVari
2. It's a ProVari Box Mod
3. It's a ProVari that goes over 30 watts
SOLD

PS: @MonsterKenny don't take this that I'm going to buy one and don't need to win one. If I win one I still will buy another one
And probably a backup one for them two

 

[AstroTurf]

Pen to Paper Time... My Thoughts

40 Watts
.3 Ohms
13 Amps
Single 18650
P3 Connector/510
User Upgradable (no more miserable BM visits)
Stainless, and or Titanium Construction
Painted or Not

The List goes on?!? What Say You???

No issue with that at all. I just don't think you understand what the phrase "enough said" means, or as you so eloquently put it "'Nuff said".

Sigh............

I'm so grateful you're here to explain to me what enough said means.

 

[spartanstew]

Any time.

I'd love the Radius to break down for all three 18xxx sizes, so it could easily fit in my shirt pocket. I don't yet have a Mini, so I am somewhat biased. I'll likely adopt one of those Minis somebody has in their closet that they never use.

ProVaris in the classys are what I appreciate most about high wattage vaping. One vaper's castoff is another vaper's treasure, ready to give years of service.
