So, my long story is simple, and like many other vapers that succeed in getting off analogs:
Started with an eGo battery with a vision clearo. Great! I get nicotine, I get flavor, and my car doesn't smell like dead rat .... Awesome! But soon... I find that I'm not getting the punch I want. I see a fellow vaper at the bar who is using this space age looking PV, and upon further inquiry find that he's been vaping for 2 years and just loves his eVic. I try it, and it's great! Even better than any other setup I'd managed to make. So I order one. I'd been vaping for just a couple months and when I got my eVic, vaping had been reinvented for me. I chugged away happily on this, bought my wife a Vamo (now her backup, we're getting to that) and life was good. There was something in the back of my mind saying I could do better, but I accepted that vaping had to have its shortfalls somewhere, and left it at that.
But then... out of the clouds of vaper that is my apartment, shines a classified ad. The offer. A banging ad for a Provari. Now I had heard. Oh, I had heard that this couldn't be beat, that it was untouchable, but me and my cocky self couldn't come to believe it. So naturally, I go for proof. O-scopes, reviews(including PBusardo, who made a cult-like intro for his Provari review), the whole nine. It was priced to sell, and sell it did. To my wife. It was purple, and all hers.
Good for her, I think. I'll be happy plowing away on my eVic with the pretty screen and the quirky little dial. Nothing could pull me away from this seemingly awesome little chinese computer programmed to deliver excellence into my body.
So it arrives in the mail, and a cloud passes over me. The ominous feel was impossible to shake. We walk inside, tear into this vapemail, and out comes her Provari. It sat there in its smugness as my wife put in a fresh battery. One vape, and she starts giggling like a kindergarten kid. So I have to try it.
I instantly found what I was missing. That one little thing that made me sit my PV down now and then and just ignore it. But I figure, "It can't be THAT different. Set up a test: your eVic, her Provari, and then you'll know there's no difference." So, same cartos, same juice, same voltage, fresh batteries, same everything. There it was. Plain as day. My beautiful device was lying to me! It couldn't be! But it was. So I rush off to get my own Provari so I can finally get that something I was missing.
I take back every off color thing I said about the Provari. I hope it forgives me and continues to work like the little perfectly tuned fog machine that it is.
Thanks for reading all! Bottom line is, I can be wrong, price DOES make a difference in some cases, and to do your research and don't be affected by a culture that can seem fanboy-ish at some times, for there is truth to all things.
TL;DR: Wife got a Provari, I was jealous, got my own, it's awesome.
