It was 1977 and I went to see the first Star Wars. Within five minutes I fell asleep. I woke up with about five minutes remaining. I still haven't seen the movie to this day.

That's what happened to me during Lord of the Rings.

I love being able to use the two smaller buttons in the menu. But was used to the single button with also owning a P3. The battery charging thing is alright. But was expecting and hoping for something mind blowing. My guess is the mind blowing things with be on the next Provari device, and several hundred dollars later :-\ The firmware update last May on the P3 was more mind blowing than this firmware update. Enough of the complaining, and back to vaping.

I would have thought it odd you would complain that the Radius did not have voltage settings yet still bought one. So I had to check to see if you bought one. Gotcha means, "I understand now". :)
I really like the Radius except for Variable Voltage, Battery Voltage and Applied Voltage not being there. I like the previous Provari OS better. Not an arguement worth entering into, just stating my preferences. I don't desire a constant display of these things. My absolute favorite ProVari is the 2.5 Ti. I own two. The first one was $270 + $15 for a blue LED. Its not the money, its the lack of Voltage (except on the battery and my Aspire coils).

It wasn't a big deal. In the first beta there were two VBCMS options. One was Blue to Off (hence all the B-O talk) and one was Blue to Green (B-G). There was an issue with some chargers out there, where they completely shut off a charge when the charge is complete. Unfortunately, this also turned the Green Light off, so it didn't work 100% of the time. It's not Provape's issue. It's the inconsistency in chargers. So, they removed the Blue to Green option and left the Blue to Off as the visual indicator on Radius. I'm totally fine with that.

I like the charging light. That makes me very happy. Not sure if I like the manual screen. But I do like having the option. Just have to get used to it. All in all I am happy with the updated and if they never update again I would be happy. The only thing I ever wanted was the light.

Well, I was a Beta tester and just uploaded 19...I now cannot select B-O...the default is OFF and pressing the fire button does not turn it ON...and no way to go back to Beta.

Karl......in the setting for charging, select Boff. That is the Blue to off Charging selection. It works just fine on my Radius with v19

All true. Sadly, I really enjoyed my green fully charged light when it worked (which was all but one charging station). In fact, I may have forgot to do something...

It didn't make much difference to me. If anything, I wondered if the constant green on was taking something from the charged battery?
