I confuzd by the smiley? Its not a sad face is it?

Currently when it's charging you have the battery icon indicate it's charging. I would think having the LED on all the time would be an annoyance for some since they charge at night?

If you tie it to the LED on/off, then you would have to turn this off every time, if you don't want it.

Adding another menu option for charging led is a option, but it makes the menu more cluttered unless you feel that would be OK.

I can certainly pass along your suggestions.

I'm fine with the battery icon.

It just doesn't light with full screen off mode.

Anyone ??

You could email around, but why not just wait until UK dealers get their stock?

I was able to somehow accidentally change wattage setting, so I just use the lock feature for the - + buttons, which is so easy to use.

I've been locking them out too.

If I were to have a complaint, those buttons feel a little awkward/prominent/pokey-stabby

No, it was a confused face. You don't need an 18650 cap for the P3, it comes complete to make all 3 sizes. Perhaps you meant the Classic? The Classic comes as 18350/18490, but the 18650 extension costs extra.

Ahh yes. I am a goof. I never used mine in any of the smaller modes. I was thinking of my 2.5s where you add the cap, not the p3 where you take away the cap and use the wee plate thingy...

 

[jwbnyc]

They don't allow me to ship to anywhere but my billing address primarily and they don't seem to be in stock I need parcels sending to my work address as I am never in during postage hours so it usually goes to the depot

They should be in stock very soon.

 

[jwbnyc]

I do not.

Cloud Nine Vapor perhaps?

Creme du vape.

Ya know, you can use an extension ring with an extension cap and turn a 2.5 mini into an 18650.

HoH may have stock...

I did have stock, They sold out in a day... I have them on display, but none to sell... no, I'm not selling my personal display pieces, I loned them to the shop and they are MINE... hehehehe

OK so i took the plunge and purchased my first provari.
The radius showed up today and the money was well spent. I love this mod
But forgive my ignorance....the radius is supposed to have a self adjusting center pin, but when i press down on the pin it does not move
What am I doing wrong?

So, it's not self adjusting like those spring-loaded Asian ones... it "gives" a little if your atty positive pin is a little on the long or short side.

wacko lefty here.. if I'm holding my ProVari in my left hand, I use my finger to fire but if I'm holding it in my right hand more often than not I use my thumb.

It will be interesting to see what works with the Radius... when the PO finally delivers it

I'm a lefty. Been using index finger left or right.

Funnily, I've trained myself to read righty screens, so if I switch to lefty it feels weird, kinda like scissors. Lefties will know what I mean.

 

[jwbnyc]

i'm glad provape got rid of the IQ feature, i remember reading tons of issues with that feature.

I love IQ. Very informative feature. You just have to learn not to obsess over it.

Having said that, the streamlined menu is pretty slick in use.

 

[jwbnyc]

Not using any...... been surfing.....found out provari releasing radius...
So should go straight to radius as my first e cig????? Or should go to classic or P3 to start with

What floats your boat?

If you like a box, want the 18650, get the Radius regardless of what power you vape at.

If you like a tube. Get the tube that fits your needs.

They're all good.

AS a starting point, the 2.5 polished or satin with the optional P3 connector... (Only 89.95) with a Kabuki is a heck of a great vape... A person starting can get going for a couple hundred bucks total, and have a world class vape!
Or a 2.5 as a starter kit with a nautilus, and holy cow... 145.00 bucks! That's GREAT gear for low $$$

 

[Zen~]

Like someone said - might be a 7 day return policy if I don't use/pull that tab, but I don't know if I have it in me to do that even if I don't like it - haha.

Did ya pull it?

Go ahead...

Pull it!

You KNOW you want to... Just a little tug... hehehe.... PULL IT!

 

[stillnotsmoking]

Ordered a Cisco spec nautilus coil for my kabuki/radius combo. Now if provape will hurry up and ship already!

I did not know that, my orphaned little zenkote gun metal mini may have new life! I got it fir the missus originally but it failed to sway.

Thank you for that info

So i just cranked up the kabuki to 11.2 watts on the 1.8

BLEW THE DOORS OFF (my mind) (do people still say that?)

I have found somfar that my vector And stumpy both with boring dual microcoils at 0.64ohms compared to my hex at the same wattage, 25 but with boost 3 on the radius have a slightly richer taste. It sounds loosey goosey but the radius has a slight edge. And it does look quite fine with both of them i must say.

 

[madangus]

@Vape360 tiny thing really... But i found both the 510 ring and the bottom thumb screws to be really really tightened on there initially, i had to use pliers to get them off and was a wee bit scared i would scratch something. I don't know if its possible to have them be a touch easier to get off but just some feedback...

I really love this wee beastie so far though, so please know that it comes from a good place

There is a squape thread. And I'm no good at links, but its in the rebuildables thread, rta section. W deck is good, have a b deck, but haven't fiddled with it.
Please email stattqualm about the p3 threaded base. Enough attention, and they may listen.

Hi Mr. Anstey

No, at this point of time we don't have any plan on making a P3 connector. Maybe we consider this in further projects.

Best regards

IMHO it mostly depends on the form factor.

Do you want a tube that can be used with 3 different sized batteries, or do you prefer a tidy box?

Of course, the power is important for some vapors. The P3 is max 20 watts and the Radius max 40.

The menu's are quite similar, with the Radius having power up and down buttons for faster changing of the power. Great feature for some, not so important for others.

Most here have been very pleased with their ProVi purchases, some for many years. Any ProVi is a great choice -- the Radius is simply the newest design. Only you can choose the features you are drawn to the most.

Thanks, for the precious input.
