I havent though I think the Radius is beautiful I am still very content (and content is not something I am very often) with my Ti Mini. I am almost scared to purchase one because I'm not sure how much I would use it and I will never be without my Ti right next to me. My quest right now is a tank (tried most - have 2 I love) but the Kabuki will definitely be my next tank. I have an Aspire Nautilus on the way to me to test out the coils. Havent used one in years so - before I punk down money I dont have, I needed to try the Nautilus again.

As much as I like the Radius, it is not about to replace the Ti Mini as my daily carry.

It's just not small enough.

It doesn't make that much difference in what I carry, which is a small tech bag with a bottle of juice, some coils, and a box of 18350 batteries.

I could lose the batteries but the little bag is still going to be there.

I try to, but I am missing about 20 to make the collection complete... it's a labor of love, an expensive one at that!

Zen, so just exactly how many ProVaris is that? Does ProVape publish a list of all of its models? I would think without one, it would be difficult task to keep up, especially when one considers all the various rings, caps, etc.

Yeah, I have an excel sheet that has all the models, I've put it together myself based on paying attention to what they release.

A true collector! I haven't built a spreadsheet--yet--for all my vape gear, but I have done several others in the past for various collections. I had a friend tell me one time that I really wasn't a "collector," I was an "accumlator," and she was probably correct. BTW, looking at all your pipes really made me long for my pipe collection, which I sold years ago. If I started back, I could never replace all of those Dunhills for anywhere near what I paid for them.

Yeah, that needs to be brought to @Vape360 attention...

I don't know if, in good conscience, I can claim it was their fault. I had it for two days, and it's been in the silicon a good 90% of the time, so it is kinda strange.

Anyway, I'm in love with this thing. I wasn't prepared for how tiny it would be. And it's so ergonomic, I sometimes find myself holding it for no reason other than just to hold it...kinda like how I used to hold an unlit cigarette. And the battery life....I have been vaping at 28-40 watts and its been lasting me all day. Also, for me it's just as comfortable to use my thumb or index finger.

I only have one other box, an IPV4S, and it's now become my back-up box. I went over to the dark side for a couple of months (it's a slippery slope)..vaping 80-100W (TC), but for me, all it brought to the table was increased juice consumption (and mild paranoia at high watts usage). So, I'm glad to be back to my normal range. My Lemo Drop at 0.9 and 28W gives me such a thick flavorful vape with a cloud bigger than anything I ever got from cigarettes, so why would I need more? My Aromamizer is blowing such big clouds at 35-40W that I had to semi-retire it...it's become my 'cigar' that I hit a few times during the evening..I just can't see vaping all day like that. YMMV

Ipv4 to radius? Does the radius vape seem smoother? To me it does, but would like another opinion. I like my ipv, but I love my provaris.

Ok, more than 12 hours in. Radius still running at 35 watts, with a .47 ohm coil. Sliver of battery still showing, no blinking light yet. It functions flawless! More than halfway through tank 2 of the squapeR.
13 hours! At 35 watts, it finally tapped out! My lungs will never forgive me. High watts are my sidekick, fire & ice all day on a 2.5. With my fruity high watt standby. The radius will fit the bill!! Full time, high watts lasted 13 hours, on a single battery! I'm impressed!!

So, I went back to look at my list, which I haven't updated in a while... And brought everything up to date...

The number now stands at 91 ProVape PVs in my collection...

A complete collection, including all four Radius colors is 112 (If you don't include LED colors on the 2.5)
Counting towards my goal of all 112 versions, I currently have 76 that qualify... I have 6 Duplicates of various models with other LED colors, so while they are unique, they don't count towards the goal... but they WILL count if I ever expand the collection to cover every LED color.

I have 9 "oddballs"... these are specials that were never released to the public that I finagled my way into having OR aftermarket variations such as the Power Pro 26650 conversion and the TeleVari. I also have a few Zenned up customs.

So my guess of needing 20 to complete the collection was a little low... I'm actually in search of 36 more, many of which are still available that I'll grab as I find them... it's my preference to find them at shows and vape shops instead of ordering them online. I try to support the dealer network if I can, plus it's more fun.

The hardest ones to find will be the early PV1s in the odd colors... AND ProVari 2's.. I'm missing 7 of the 2s And those darned PV1s in colors are HIDING! I DEEPLY regret getting rid of the Blue one and the Titanium one I had... which I foolishly traded away before I was collecting. I have been trying to find them for years in presentable condition. These ones are tough to get, it was a LOT of peoples first good mod, and they are very attached to them.

I have a question. I keep hearing a high pitched sound when pressing the fire button on my radius. Is that normal?

Yes....this was brought up earlier. Its the power converter.

On another note, i do have a glitch....my power bar showed almost full, and just dropped from that to empty
