What I thoroughly enjoyed about the Radius segment was the guy who said he used to be a fanboi but he didn't buy the Radius cause he needs more power- it no longer meets his needs. He expressed himself without being vulgar about it & didn't bash Provape customers who'd spend $200 on a 40W device when there's others out there that do more.

I also enjoyed the guy who expressed how much he likes the Radius. As he said.....it's the little things that matter. What intrigued me was when he said that the Radius performed better than his 200W mod!

But what they both said, if you need more than 40W, don't buy this.

ScandaL, Angsty(the guy) the fanboy was talking about the P3 release. He said he would have been first in line if it did 30 watts. He said he had ordered the Radius because of the size and Understudy's liking of it. He said because of his rebuilding habits, 20 watts that the P3 put out did'nt meet his needs. He showed and talked about his 2.5 satin mini that he would never sell because it was the first highend mod he owned and helped him stay off cigs.

Right around 32 minutes of the latest "Plumes of Hazard" (episode 98) on YouTube - they review the Radius. And it's a good and fair assessment!

I'm too afraid to link to it due to some slight swearing.... They don't swear a lot, but they do...

Thanks for the heads up on the review. I enjoyed it. The one concerning portion was when he mentioned the phone call with Provari discussing using the buttons for the menu, and their response explaining that pressing those buttons with that frequency could eventually lead to negative effects?

Personally I think that was marketing speak for "We don't want to rewrite the OS at this point, it's too much work at a time we are extremely busy."

If it's not, I see myself using the buttons much more to change the watts than the menu, if it wasn't marketing speak, then the reply could be concerning?

No problem! And I wouldn't worry in the slightest about the longevity of those buttons... Kinda like how the manual says the screen will last longer on a lower brightness... They're designing things to last years here. Thus they don't want to add any unnecessary wear/tear where thy don't have to.

I also agree with your comment on the marketing speak.

Honestly I have no issues with the menu the way it is now myself.

I ordered a Cabernet Red Radius to complement my Black Onyx one....USPS sez it will be delivered Thursday.
Nice! I ordered a Black Onyx Radius to complement my Midnight Blue Radius! Glad I'm not the only one spending unnecessary money on extra Radii - haha.

Now if I can refrain from the white after people start posting pics making me jealous.........

Let's face it: for this bunch they are pretty much all gratuitous.

Can't wait to spend spend spend on a Ghost.

That'll be a princess mod along with the Dragon.

Wow I was gone for a few days and missed all of this? Lol awesome. Gotta question for you kind folks: for a person who wants a good rta that doesn't have too much airflow but can do a restrictive lung inhale, what would you recommend? I'm started to get tired of these sub ohm wide open tanks and drippers but I still want a warm flavorful vape.

I haven't gotten around to it yet. It looks like the other ones. :)

I'm still getting used to it. My other box mods have buttons in different places.

I receive Priority Mail all of the time and have never signed for a package. I didn't sign for my P3's or the Radius I bought from a dealer in Fl who sent it Priority mail. If it's a small box it's in the mail box if larger it's dropped on my front porch.

I've only had to sign for packages from ProVape and Reosmods. My post office also appears to send package I need to sign for on different different trucks. I get my mail around 3:30pm, but the ProVape package came at about 6:10 last night - in a huge snowstorm. The last one I received from Reo was around 5:30 - also in the snow. Both times I thought I had been forgotten.

For a dripper try the vertex v2. For a tank kayfun v4 wide open or with the 4s kit. Maybe the lemo.

I can't recommend the Erlkoningin enough. I just bought a second one and I'm planning on another. Once you learn how to wick it properly (it's easy to do, just different) you won't find better flavor, and it's easy to fill while holding a whopping 6ml of juice. The air flow has a pretty wide range of adjustment.

I have Kayfuns (Lite Plus and V4), a Squape, and a couple of Russian 91%. The Erl K beats 'em all.:thumb:
