Official ProVari Radius Thread

[raitizz]

I'm considering a rDNA40 V2 from my local classies, for a very good price. Always liked the unobtrusive design.

After doing some more reading and watching reviews the take that I am coming away with is basically the same rant that I noticed when I purchased my Provari's. That is people are complaining about the price point and comparing the Radius to less expensive imports from China with more features. I remember that when I purchased my Provari they were compaing it to the EVIC. Though I still have my Provari and it is still running strong. I wonder if those Evic fanboys could now say the same. As far as those that are talking about the Radius only having 40 watts and not having temp control, I don't know how important tose features really are to obtaining a good vape. I am more into flavor as opposed to cloud production. I mean I was able to get off of regular cigs because I was able to becme satisfied with the flavor of the vape and the delivery of nictine. My motivation was not how much vape I could produce with one drag. In fact I would be OK with a vaporless ecig. This way I could vape any place I want and not be noticed.. However we live in a visual society and for that reason I guess vapor production is important.
Anyway I can't wait until my new toy arrives. I just looked at the video touring the Provape facility and I now see why their products are so good. To say I am impressed would be an understatment.

I still have my Evic Supreme. It's on a shelf along with the other 15 mods I don't use. My Radius is right next to my keyboard. And my second one is being charged. You'll love it!

My apologies if this happens to be somewhere in the first 300+ pages, but is there a good photo somewhere of a size comparison between the Radius, P3 in 18350 mode and the 2.5 mini?

I ask because I am about to try quitting cigs completely (was 2 packs a day before vaping, now about 8 or so a day) and I'm wondering if a 2.5 mini might make a better pocket mod than the Radius. Will be going Kabuki topper either way.

Thanks!

Hey - I actually liked MS Dos!

Me too. I've never been as productive as I was with MS-DOS, Software Carousel, XyWrite, Quattro Pro, GrandView, Tornado Notes, etc.

The 2.5 Mini with a P3 topcap is on sale at Provape for $89.95. It is mucho smaller & less expensive than the Radius but the Radius has alot more battery. I just ordered a Mini/P3 because I wanted a small device at less than half the price. Your decision. Maybe buy both?

 

[tearose50]

Yes, there are some comparison pictures. All 3 are very very close to the same height --- 1/8 of inch

Put the P3 in 18350 next to a Mini and you have the width of the Radius.

I find Radii better for pocket, though others prefer to carry a small tube in their pocket.

For a bunch of great shots comparing the mini & 18350 start here and go down a page or so:

I'm still looking for the Radius and mini ones....

So basically a Radius is 2 minis wide (and probably a third of the battery life)? Kind of wish I had a 2.5 Ti mini now, but I'll never find one. I may consider a 2.5 mini retrofitted with the P3 threading.

 

[Train2]

Um...(search the classifieds. now)

[Hyperspace]

Does anyone know how much the Radius weighs without battery and tank?

 

[madangus]

Windows has a couple of programs that will allow you to do that - Ultramon and ObjectDesktop are two. In Linux you can run VMWare Workstation to have Windows and OS X. On the Mac, I prefer using VMWare Fusion to run Windows. I read that you have to upgrade Parallels for every major upgrade to OS X?

It might be a "optimized fir new os x release" thing. Vmware have similar 'optimized' selling bullets, but i am still on the previous major version and have upgraded os x and its fine... Integration might not be quite as slick

If parallels really require a paid upgrade for every annual os x upgrade.. That seems like they would alienate their customers pretty quick..

I don't have a picture to share but I too was a 2 or more pad and for me the battery in the mini just did not cut it. I had to have batteries with me for work. There is a great picture for the vs 200 next to the radius. The vs to date has been the smallest mod outside of the Chinese ones. The radius appears to be just as tall but not as wide. So nice and small with a much larger battery than the mini. My mini with the slanted cap is just a tad taller than my vs.

 

[StealthyTX]

Um...(search the classifieds. now)

Found one for over $200, a bit rich for me to just use as a going-out-pocket-vape, but I get the price considering they are so rare

If I put two minis together it is as wide as my vs r40. That just does not seem right based on the picture that is one here with the radius next to a vs200. Huh. Guess I will see when mine shows up. Ugh this is taking too long. Lol

The Vixen was calling to me - but as I couldn't answer - I did the next best thing
View attachment 512090

Like those purple orings on the ghostie

 

[madangus]

My ghostie be processing, i await with eagerness for that and the final kabuki!

I am excited for the next firmware too, not going to bother going from 16 to 18.

 

[tearose50]

The Radius is a teensy bit less wide than 2 mini's -- but it's the rounded size that is so much more comfy than square. The picture looks accurate to me.

Don't fret --- I think you will love it.

The vaporshark dna 200 is a quite a bit bigger than the rdna40, I stole someone's pic to show you. (dna200 2nd from left, rdna on far right)

Oh dang had no idea they were that big. I have not seen one in the wild. Lol OK so I was mistaken.

I feel the same way about CP/M
