Vixen is my main juice vendor, but for hardware I'm fickle. Did anyone else get a survey request from MFS? I don't usually fill them out, but I did this one. When they asked for rating I gave them a 6 (for no particular reason). The next question was what can we do to make you give us a 10? I said they could bring down the regular price of their nautilus coils to under Sweet Vape's.

Ocelot;
What is the difference between the Nautilus and Triton coils? Have a Kabuki ordered.:)
Maybe I should send a few pic's of my Pet Vixen to Vixen Vapor. LOL

I thought folks would get a kick out of her. Perhaps they thought it was just a random pic. she's my Pet Fox. Follows me everywhere I go! My wife and I both really enjoy her.
Thanks/Knife

Those were the two major changes.

Ver 19

Charge indicator - you can now set the led to come on blue when plugged in and charging and go dark once it's charged. This new feature is located under SET then lightening bolt icon. You will have the option to turn off or B-off (Blue then off)

2. We now have a manual menu mode. This is for all who didn't like the auto scrolling menu. You can now change the menu to manual by going into SET - DIS - MENU. Setting this to MAN will stop the icons from scrolling and you can take control by using the plus and minus buttons.

It will take us a few days to update the website with the changes and roll out the change email but we wanted to get our friends on ECF the first round.

Cheers
That is great news. Well Done Sir!
I can live without the volts settings, @Zen~ kindly helped me understand the whole watt thing through some PM's. The manual menu access makes me really want to get a Radius now! Thanks @Vape360 and Provape team :thumbs:

Okay, seriously ProVape? Are you spying on me or something? I'm not entirely convinced there's not a secret microphone embedded in my Radius that calls home to ProVape HQ.

I've had my Radius for 4.5 days. I love it. It was purchased as a gift from my friend Jason, shipped super quick!

Yesterday, I told him how much I like it and the only gripes I had with it were nitpicky. The only two things I wish it had were:

  • The LED to light up whilst charging via USB
  • A way to manually scroll through the menu.

Today I wake up to an email from ProVape saying there's an update. What are the changes? Those two things. I'm on to you ProVape!!!!

But seriously, thank you ProVape. You just further perfected the device in my eyes.

@Bronze and @The Ocelot , Sorry to read of your furry friends passing, it breaks my heart whenever I read about people loosing their little companions, as my own pets are my best friends...they do have a way of keeping a part of us when they leave.

what he said.

We didn't intend to have a pet but this one showed up under the shed as a tiny kitty and the shelters were filled. We brought her inside and when the time came that she could be adopted out my husband (who isn't a cat person) said 'the house wouldn't be the same'. That was 9 years ago and his words still ring true.

I need to ask for help.

I am trying to update my Radius. I downloaded the zip file to my PC. Went through the installation process with the .net thing, restarted my computer. Then installed the actual update file, restarted my computer. Plugged in the Radius, it downloaded the drivers, told me to restart my computer--did that. Plugged it in again, and a green message popped up that I needed to wait for the Radius Data to be retrieved. That was 45 minutes ago--nothing has come up.

I have three to update--but have already spent over an hour trying to do one.

Any advice?
What version of Windows are you running? One suggestion may be to disconnect the Radius, Close the Provape updater, then Right click and run the Provape updater as an administrator. It will prompt to connect the Radius, when it doesn't find it.

How fun! What breed?

The one dog I have now has never been alone, he had a littermate, then my dogs. I was considering getting a puppy, so he wouldn't be lonely, but he seems quite happy. He was always low dog on the totem pole with the other two. He's alpha now and digging it.
Papillon - one picked him out and hasnt stopped "talking" to him yet. We spent a few hours sitting with the 4 she had and one (now named Piper - his vocals are child-like) stayed right in hubs lap, talking and snuggling up to his neck then climbed under his arm and went to sleep. He has a whine speak - not whinny but more like hes holding a conversation...I'll need to video him. I have never had a dog do this so we are in stitches.

Now that you have had them for a hot minute, are you using the R* or the P3 more?

Down the road, do you see that to be the same answer?

Thanks! Curious and Tubed

This is harder to answer than I would have thought. I haven't had much luck with box mods being comfortable in my little hands. I love my mini 2.5s and warmed up to my P3 ti - appreciating that it's so light - but don't ask me why initially I kept grabbing a mini first.

Frankly, I expected not to like the R*. I thought it would be uncomfortable and too weighty for me. Wrong. The shape is very comfortable and it's well balanced in the hand. It took a bit to get used to the weight (10 minutes?)

I'm now a certified dual P user. I usually take the R* and the P3 (in 350 mode) with me when I go out so I have different flavors at hand. If I was to buy another, which would I buy? That's my dilemma now. The R* might win, I like the Midnight Blue and the ease of charging is a bonus. Plus my minis are still in rotation... but I can't see taking 2 R*s out with me, the weight and form factor of the P3 is a good compliment. ack.

I feel for you Guy's loosing your pets. Living out in the country, and having dealt with animals all my life, I had to put him down myself. He felt no pain what so ever. But it sure hurt me. This was seven years ago, and it still hurts!

I now have COPD, and the Dr.s say NO CATS or Birds in the house. Grrrr.

So this is why we enjoy our Fox so much. I've never seen such a polite and patient animal. She will set in one, spot and wait for me of hours if needed. My only complaint, Is I love to Squirrel hunt, and even more love a good pot of squirrel and dumplings. Bun in NO WAY will she allow it.

Foxy always manages to get to them before me. I shoot, Squirrel hits ground, and she goes into high speed warp drive,and there is only a vacuum where the squirrel was just a second ago. Grrrrr!!!

I have a v2, several 2.5s, several P3, and a Radius. At present, I only use the Radius, for 2 reasons:

I haven't yet updated my P3s, so I can only use my .5Ω subtank coils on the Radius. Also, I prefer box mods now. I have arthiritis in my hands, and they are just easier to hold.

My main device is now the Radius. My backup is my P3. The radius feels better in my hands. Is more stable standing up and maybe it's just my imagination, but with a Kabuki on top, it vapes better. I like the feel of every single aspect of the Radius. If I were to add a 3rd device, it would be a 2nd Radius.

Paps are very pretty dogs, I can just imagine how cute they are as puppies. Are his ears up or do they stand as he gets older?

This is way, way off the Radius topic, but consistent with the tone of today, plus it's almost Christmas. The video was made several years ago and sadly the only members of the cast still with me are the puppy, the cat and the goat (although I have another goat, but he refused to be filmed).



That's MARVELOUS!!!

Depends on how wound up he gets himself. He can perk them up to get attention or if that doesn't work he flops them down and howls lol

They will stand though. There are 2 types The one with ears that lay down is called Phalène (moth) - Papillon refers to the breed and the most common ear is upright. Delightful breed according to the reading we have done. Piper has certainly livened up the house today. Good to see hubs wanting to be more active than normal.
