Like someone was talking about earlier, it appears that Pbusardo has fallen head over heels in love with temp control and mega watts. He did a complete 360 on Vaporshark from the RDNA 40 to the DNA200. Hell, he did 4 hours worth of episodes on the DNA200 technology. Nowadays, it seems like many of the reviewers out there are tripping over each other to laud the "latest and greatest" and the Cloud Chasers are beginning to dominate the internet.

I think the best reviews are what people are going to read in here. In this forum you'll find honest thoughts from people that are the target market for Provape. The love for Provape and for Zen's House of Hybrids on this thread demonstrates that the people in here are the Rolls Royce owners of the vaping world. Thoughtful engineering and unmatched build quality rule the roost here, but unfortunately that ain't sexy enough for the majority of reviewers to harp on.

So even if Provape did send Pbusardo a Radius, I'm not sure that we're the type of vapers he's trying to reach and he may just pass on the review. We'll have to see, someone as popular as Pbusardo could really get the word out there for the Radius.

I dunno.. I think he reviews what's relevant, what's interesting. He'll do the Radius, I'm sure. He loves his Kayfuns and Provaris. He'll be constructive, objective, and you will enjoy his review.

Cool, nice to know and welcome to the "magical thumb" club!

 

[WhiteHighlights]

Must be a guy and thumb thing
Mine just covers the two wittle buttons not the giant one

 

[Fishtec]

Has anyone noticed that there little buttons wobble more then they should one on mine feels really secure and as if it's held in place whilst the other feels really loose actually moves outwards when upside down and moves off centre quite easily it's a small issue but it's driving me insane it's not perfect maybe I'm just obsessive haha

I had my Radius on my lap when I stepped out of Toyota 4runner, I'm from the US, so I stepped out with my left leg first. I felt it slide down the inside of my leg, but I didn't hear it land I peeked down to see where it went, and it was sitting on my running boards, which has a soft rubber on them.

Something else neat, well at least for me
My thumb is not only big enough to press both the + and - buttons but I can press all 3 buttons at the same time with it. Making my Radius easy to lock, unlock, turn off, and turn on with just my thumb
I'm also getting good at unscrewing both battery screws at the same time

Speaking of those battery screws... Check them religiously! I only took them out once, to remove the little battery tab, but they can get loose. How do I know this? I'm now missing one, guess that's why they sell replacement ones.

It's been a long wait, but I have got the magic email

Now I am hoping it will come Saturday, the only day when someone will be home to sign for it.

 

[madda]

My CR Radius should be here tomorrow, along with the return of my updated P3 ... the info' from this thread is gonna be so handy
eg; leave the usb cover in the box ... be wary of loose screws AND start saving for a Kabuki

If I recall correctly, I believe that 0 in 18650, 18350 etc. is for Round. 18 -- radius of battery, 65 length, 0 for shape, in mm.

Do those kind of batteries come in anything but round? (Not being snarky)

There is a lot of confusion in the vaping and flashlight communities, and even within the manufacturing industries, as to what the "0" means. The one thing everyone can agree on is that "0" means "TYPE". Some people believe the 0-type means round, but that would mean there is redundant information in the model, so 0 cannot mean round. To demonstrate this, we have to use more than just numbers, but the full model - IMR18650.

I = Ion, meaning rechargeable, as lithium cells are not rechargeable (CR2032, no "I")
M = Chemistry (C/M/N/F/etc.)
R = Round <-- there it is, ROUND. There is also F (FLAT), P (PRISMATIC)
18 = 18mm diameter (it's half that in a ProVari Radius )
65 = 65mm tall
0 = Type 0 (Lithium). If this meant round, it would be redundant with the "R" in "IMR"

 

[Katdarling]

Thank you, Engineer John! I did not know that. I believed the "0" was for cylindrical. I mean, you know, I read it on da Internets.

Please know this comes from a loving, fellow Provape vaper...

I may be obsessive myself, however I can't help but notice the extreme lack of punctuation in your posts.

Now, I'm a huge fan of writing/typing, and I'm sure in a past life I was a speech editor for Hitler...aka the Grammar Nazi...but man...it's really hard to read your posts. Both visually, and obsessively.

Sorry. Again, it comes from a good place, with good intentions. I promise.

P.S. Honestly, I swear to gods I'm not poking fun at you!

I'm assuming you are talking about the + and - buttons. Mine are solid and firmly held in place. When I had my Vaporshark you could hear the buttons rattle when you shook the device, but my Radius appears to be built like a tank. No rattle or free movement in them at all.

Give fish a break - since he's from England, American is a 2nd language for him.

Why do they call it a "lift," when it goes down as well?
