I'm talking about the location of the screen on the device. It's on the left when you look at the Radius from the front. I would love to have seen it on the right side.
Is that the only thing that's holding you back?

Go ahead and click the buy It Now Button!

You'll thank me in the mornin!!!

Radius with the eXpromizer V2

Just started vaping her but it's pretty vice. I can't believe how small this device is in my hand.

Let me just say that it's from a reviewer who is rather long winded, and uses all kinds of test equipment in his reviews.

I will also say that... All of this is my opinion. I do not know what he thinks.

Can I buy a vowel? I don't want to watch even 15 minutes of 4 freaking hours :blink: if it's not the right one.

I gots the Kabuki. reserving judgement at the moment. Sorry :(
I am giving it a fair shot. Not everyone is going to love the same thing...but I am trying!

One of the biggest downfalls (For ME) is the quantity of liquid it holds. I seem to blow through the liquid level way too fast.

I don't know if I have just gotten lucky with the builds I make on the Kayfun, but it kinda beats the kabuki in the flavor department. Not by much, now that it has broken in some.

I will use it, don't get me wrong, but side by side..... I have to say (again for ME) the kfl+ works for my style of vaping better...so far.
Play with the power settings, Robin...there is definitely a sweet spot to the Kabuki!;)

I am pretty new to vaping coming from a pipe smoking and cig smoking background. I am thinking of buying to Radius as I have a P3 and Kabuki and I love the P3 connector. I normally am vaping at between 11-14watts so the P3 is seems to have more power that I am currently using.

Notwithstanding that having more stuff is always better :) and it looks very cool, am I going to get much use out of the extra power? I have a Kayfun V4 and loving that too, and I also dropped some serious coin on a Squape R(s)

I would like to try sub-ohming too :)

So please help this noob that I need a Radius :D

FWIW, I've just sold a bunch of my custom briar pipes to fund this new "hobby"
What decks did you get with the squape? The d deck is dual coil, and you can push the watts with it!!:thumbs::thumbs:

It would be easier (in this thread) to just say, don't waste your time.

I prolly should not have brought it up anyway.

Me to. I hope they hurry up and tell me how long the refund is going to take. Back to sender it goes. Thanks ProVape, really appreciate it.
I just have to go to the local post office tomorrow. Would've been happier posting pics of radius, but I wasn't home.

My Cabernet arrived!! And I'm..... not sure.

First the pros:
The shape of this device is absolutely perfect. The rounded sides lets this baby slide into your hand like it was born there. I've never held a more comfortable mod.

It has "heft." It looks and feels more solid than my aluminum VaporShark, and the polycarbonate is very well done. It is neither warm nor cold to the touch and has a very solid look to it. It is by no means "plastic" in the way we normally associate quality with plastic. It looks like every damn penny of $200. The brushed steel end plates are beautifully finished with clear and deeply etched lettering.

The Radius will carry on the Provari name with grace and style.

Now for the bad:
The color.
I'm not sure I like the red. To my eyes it seems to have a purple tinge to it. No, it is not purple, but on my monitor I thought it leaned more to the brownish end of red, almost like an old time football skin.

For now the Radius sits in its box untouched as I stare at, trying to decide if its a keeper. I'm not sure it is. I will own this mod, but maybe another color would be better for me. With any luck someone will post some real world pics of the Midnight Blue, but I'm thinking maybe Black would better suit my tastes.

If I don't pull the plastic and power this sucker up, I'm hoping I can exchange it without a problem. Because even if this does go back, the device itself is spectacular and I will want another.

:unsure:

Doesn't matter. In any case, I'm watching PB at the moment who is quickly going from someone I respected to a tech-geek with shiny-itis. Maybe he's been on this road for awhile, he hasn't reviewed anything I was interested in for a long time. I was aware they knew each other, but when did Brandon become his BFF?

Not an option for me. so I am effectively never getting one. they said they could remove the requirement but I am not reordering and getting shut out for 4 weeks or longer.

Trust me, from personal experience if you feel like this, close the box, package it up and arrange a swap, you will feel a sense of relief the moment you do.

You already know you love it so get it in a colour you LOVE too ;)

I've said before that ProVape colors can look very iffy online. That's why I posted color swatches. The original red looked (maybe) cherry red or even red red, but in person was more tomato colored...and the original purple...well, ask Susan W. I was completely blown away when I got my purple and it was actually the color I hoped, but didn't expect, it to be. Thanks Zen. :)

I bought a Vaporshark DNA200, its okay, but I still can't get a decent vape using temperature control:-x so now I've got a 200W device that I don't take over 15W:lol:
exactly why i did not spend my money on one. i dont care for tc so 200 w is just a waste for me.

Why isn't it an option? Just curious. Hate to see you not get one over something as trivial as this.
