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.
