Official ProVari Radius Thread

[chrisz]

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

Normal, if you have good hearing!

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.

OK, @WillyZee, something to shoot for. Goals are important.

You have some that weren't released too right?

I have a couple that were prototypes that found their way to me. While they are really special to me, they don't count towards the goal, they are, as they say, Icing on the cake!

Zen's house is where the party is when this happens!

Bacon Tacos for ALL my friends!You may as well come anyway, the weekly meetings of ProVari Anonymous could be held at my house, I have a disease. A baaaaaaaaaad disease. And Willy Z is infected too, poor guy. Health Canada has to think about how to classify him for aid!

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.

So, what you're seeing is what us vaping elitists are talking about when we say these things are better... there is a BIG difference in the "quality" of the power being generated. Smoother power makes a HUGE difference. The imports can fudge the readings, but your senses don't lie!

Much smoother since I mostly used the IPV to experiment with TC...and in TC mode it uses PWM (rattlesnake). It used to drive me crazy since I was only used to the smoothness of the P3. I could totally feel a 'choppiness' to the vape.

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

So...
When was the battery last charged and have you removed it and put it back in bewteen the time you charged and the time that it glitched... just curious.

 

[erieboyz]

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

Thanks I must have missed it. I'm suffering from high battery drain. From 4.2 volts to 4 after 5 puffs. Happening with multiple batteries.

I'm going with food on this one At least, that's the look I get from mine when they are in the food mood

Those look like mostly Breyers

They are. Breyer collectors can be, ummm, unique.

I first charged it outside of the mod (ran a different fresh battery on day one). It was put in around 7pm yesterday, so it had quite a run time, battery wasn't pulled out since....
Its plugged in now, been plugged in for about 15 minutes, battery hasnt moved off empty (charge indicator is on though). I'll leave it for a while and hope for the best.

I DID think "wow, this is beyond good battery life"....now i know why[emoji14]
Hope its a one time glitch (also hope its actually charging...it should have SOME charge by now :/)

Elitist vaping aside, 10-12 mils juice n a day, is a lot for me. But I did it! So did the radius! She & I are both tired. Results are results, 35 watts, 13 hours, lots of juice. But she did it! Happy to go back to my 2.5, with the radius providing back up love from my second favorite juice.

Trust the battery they gave you!

 

[USMCotaku]

Ok, quick update. I got curious and checked on it again...still showed zero charge....unplugged it, pulled the bottom plate off then put back on...and it registered about 1/8th of a charge...so it is charging, but not registering on the mod (wouldnt vape when showing zero, but did after the "reset")

Zen's house is where the party is when this happens!

I'm visualizing everyone huddled inside, nailing boards across the windows using ProVarii for hammers...

So you're Putting in a freshly charged battery, taking 5 puffs, then taking the battery back out to measure the voltage of the cell?

Are you using the 25R that came with it, or trying to outsmart it with a battery you prefer more?

 

[USMCotaku]

So Zen, if this unit is glitchy, do i go through you or provape? (still hoping it was a one time thing)

Use ProVape Service, if you send it to me, then I have to send it to them... will slow things down.

Breyer horse collectors often collect the same model not only in different colors, but in slight variations of the same color. They call it a "Conga Line."

Zenga Line.
