And a VERY nice man.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to know him very well. We were a bit unprofessional that day I guess. I only worked with him the first half of the day, and never again. You know when you see bonus features on home video with outtakes where people laugh uncontrollably? That was us that day.

He was doing voice-overs for a television commercial (I don't recall for what) at a studio that was owned by a friend of mine, and I happened to be there the day he was there. He was warm and cordial to everybody and he bought us all lunch. He talked about how he developed cartoon voices that were easily identifiable by creating very specific speech impediments for each of them, so you KNEW the minute he spoke, what character it belonged to. To him, it was a high art.

He called his own takes... He rolled through take after take... and at the end he would say "Take # (whatever) was the best... you'll end up using that one" and he was ALWAYS right. The man knew his craft... a real pro and an absolute gentleman. I consider myself lucky to have met him, and to see him work.

classwife will give you a lift.

I simply love her 'avatar'. Wouldn't it be too cool if she pulled up in (some little car of choice) looking like that? I think I'd just die right then with that being the last sight in my eyes.

So, anyone hear of xkcd? If not, fair warning - it's a time vampire.

I don't know why, but one of my favorite xkcd comics popped into my mind while reading the Radius forum.

PS - Possibly where Zen got his flux capacitor icon? :)

I've met her in person... Pretty easy on the eyes if I do say so myself!

Gonna find myself a chair & wait for the finished product. :pervy:

If not for the forums, how would one learn to build photogenic coils?

Now, see, I'm not into wrapping my own coils... yet. But I'm leaning in that direction. When that happens I'll be back in the swing full force. But for now the Kabuki will meet my immediate needs. I have a fair number of Aspire atomizers lying around.

These are really good points. I've been "chasing the dragon" for so long though! Lol. But this Radius/Kabuki combo really is amazing. Then I throw the Kabuki on the p3 in mini more am blown away again at how tiny a very good quality vape device can be!

Good point. I may have to break out my P-Mini once I get my Kabuki tank...

So coming from a guy who does sub ohm and like a warmer vape (could care less about blowing a hurricane worth of clouds) I can honestly say I'm officially a fan of Provape. They have done an awesome job developing this device and this has become a daily driver with my sx minis. I kind of wish it pushed at least 50 watts but that's not what it's designed to do and I'm ok with that. You build it right and you'll get a very satisfying experience. I may have won this device but if was able to try this out I would definitely have purchased one. Thanks guys for all of your help and tips. I'm officially a fan.

I hope you guys all realize, I chase the dragon too! For YEARS I have been looking for a setup that can do EXACTLY what the Radius/Kabuki can do... The ZNA/Kabuki was supposed to be the end-all for me... but the evolv board is no ProVari, and since the ProVari board is exclusive to ProVape... I went with what I could get. ZNA/Kabuki is a great vape, for sure... but the battery life, smoothness, none of it... is as good as a P3 or Radius. (ZNA sure is pretty, though) I could have made the ZNA native with the 650 battery, but I wanted it to be shorter... so.. here we are.

Radius/Kabuki... So I'm batting 500.... I can admit defeat... lol
I would rather you say...

You can admit success!!!

Because we are all chasing the dragon to escape that ole demon... Smoking.

Congrats Mike!!! (you ain't smoking)

I need to see one first. From what I saw on Provapes' site that white doesn't look white....more like a pale white......maybe that's why they call it ghost?
Lexi,
I'll take anything white that ProVape offers. Kinda tired of other white offerings on the market.

So after a few days of using the radius here are my thoughts:

1. I was astonished on how lightweight and how form fitting it feels in the hand. I can't put it down lol.

2. The vape does seem to be considerably smoother than all of my devices, including my sx minis

3. While getting used to how the display reads the batteries I noticed that I can push almost a full day now on a single battery now at 27 watts.

4. The customizations on the device is awesome. From changing the LED color to adjusting the brightness I can tailor it to my preferences.

5. The boost settings are freaking sweet.

So coming from a guy who does sub ohm and like a warmer vape (could care less about blowing a hurricane worth of clouds) I can honestly say I'm officially a fan of Provape.

ProVape ProVari Radius... What does it really cost?!?

199.95, minus an 11.95 battery and a 17.95 charger, equals?

170.05, Yes that's a pretty good price!!!

Jim
lol. A 25r is 6 bucks and a charging cable is 2-3. I gues you could throw 7 dollars shipping in there though.
