PLANofMAN,

There is a Provari sub-forum. Just saying.....

Best thing I've read all day. If everyone used that as a stock answer, maybe we could get our status upgraded from "cult" to "secret society."

Edit: Maybe if we just congregated in one big ongoing thread like the iHy cult does, haters would leave us alone.

LOL, this thread will make 50 pages in the normal thread break setting.

I had to go back and read through to catch up. The same folks are here. Looks like most everyone doesn't care.

I want evidence of "Provari Hate". Some one post evidence or at least PM me a link where someone hates a Provari.
Well in this case there are several posts in this thread that indicates there are 4 maybe 5 people that hate them. I just want to see examples of this behavior.

Full disclosure, I've used a Provari but I currently only use Variable Wattage or mechanical devices as I don't have a need for Variable Voltage devices that can't do the math for me.

We could make a new "Green" engine if we can mix ProVari and AntiVari is the right amounts. The energy available is obvious in this thread. We would have to be careful or that stuff would blow up, also just like this thread. :D

In the world of APV discussion there is only ProVari, and AntiVari

There is no in-between!

You have 30 seconds to comply!

Perfect example of a post that gets people upset. Thanks!
Why would you call it a crutch like its some sort of thing for lamers or something?
How is it that having the device do the math is a crutch?

I'm glad you could post such a great example.

I thought I needed all those crutches too. Turns out, all I needed was an ohms checker and the ability to crank volts up and down. I could do the math, but why bother? As long as my vape tastes good, that's all I care about.

Reason I said that is because if you had ever truly used a Provari you'd know the exact opposite of your statement is true.Holding one for a few minutes and taking a couple of puffs off it at a vape meet doesnt count.

Theres very little math involved at all in using a Provari.Devices dont make things more or less complicated, people do.

Mine stays set at 4.2 volts and has remained there for a couple of months straight.Same could be said for all mechanical mods.

Zapped, that is so much a load of crap and I hope you know it but maybe not.
What do you have in that device you are vaping on?

Having a device that can do the math is one thing, passing on a device because it doesn't is quite another.
You were the one that said you "didn't want a device that couldn't do the math for you." You globbed on to the word "crutch," took offense, and completely missed the real point of what I was saying.

Whats a load of crap? You saying youve used a Provari?

Or you sitting here saying that a Provari is harder cause it doesnt do the math for you?

I hate math with a passion.If your statement were true I wouldnt be using a Provari at all.

PLANofMAN,

Did you read my post? I said I use power adjustable devices and mechanical devices.
If I am using a device with electronics then yes, the electronics are there then they can do the freaking math. I would not want a device in these days that doesn't. If they ever upgrade the ProVari and include VW then sure, I'll take another whack at it.

I don't think I missed your point at all, you said you didn't need a crutch. No?

Yes, a whole truck load of crap.
Where are the examples of this mythical ProVari hate which is the the topic of the thread?
I think you posted that, right?

2ohm + 2 = 4.0 volts.Thats about as simple an equation as youre apt to find nowadays. If thats too complicated for you then yeah I would call it a crutch.

And thats why I said you were lying.You might have held a Provari in your hand for a few minutes and even taken a couple of drags off it but if you had used it for a day or two you would know what youre saying is complete and utter horse .....

Im not the Op you would have to ask him...you sure you dont have me confused with someone else?

As far as what I have in my "device" if you knew me at all then you'd know Ive made my stance on that particular subject abundantly clear over the past couple of days on these forums.

No Zapped you said I was lying because you chose to act and respond in a childish manner. What difference does it make to you what my opinion of your device is? Where are these mythical examples of Provari Hate?

I doubt Provari will make the leap into the modern age by creating a VW. They currently have the market on overpriced VV mods, don't need an overpriced VW mod to add to it all.
Here's one I found after a few minutes of searching. I'm not sure it's hurtful enough for you, though. That being said, there's hundereds of posts out there that piss and moan on the "clunky" menu system and "overpriced" mod status.
