I have developed a tremor and keep accidentally changing my provari settings. Can anyone make a suggestion for something comparable with different buttons for firing and settings? I use a tank and do not want something too slim. I also need the firing button to not be smaller in diameter. I have been looking, but everything I've seen is so much larger. My hands are pretty small. My old Ego-T is working, but I need VV. Thanks!

Sorry the Provari button is not working for you with your condition. Sucks.

Bright side is, you can sell it here on the classifieds and afford to buy 2 of the above suggestions!

And someone who want's a Provari for a deal will be able to get one.

It's a win/win!

I hope your health improves.

Vape On!

I'd recommend the SVD as well. Sturdy, different buttons for firing and adjusting the settings, can be locked easily, and takes the batteries you already have.

EDIT: though it has a three clicks on/off feature that might be a problem with tremors. How does the provari's on/off function?

If the Ego T is working for you but you just need VV then I would suggest getting a Joye Ego Twist or Vision Ego Spinner which is easier to read the voltages on. I think Smok also makes one called the Winder and the voltage on it are easier to read also. I' have a Spinner and like it but Hubby recently picked up some ARO BCCs for me locally and I'm impressed enough with them to get their pyrex ARO tank which looks just like them (EVOD looking) and a Winder to match.

Thanks everyone. I really appreciate all of your help. I think I will try the SVD. I would probably prefer the feel of the zmax but it has that one button control. With the SVD all I can do is accidentally turn it off instead of choking myself when the voltage gets cranked up.

Are you going to sell the provari?

Be carefull with the futura, is a really nice mod but is a DNA 20 and this is a lot of power and cant be regulated down,

Watch pbusardo video on both FUTURA and DNA 20 videos.

For normal vapers its to much

It cranks down to 7 watts and around 3.4 volts (lower depending on battery charge) - can't do much on the low end but 7-9 watts seems to be what 'all the kids' are vaping these days - I agree it could be a little overkill but for 1.8-2.2 ohm devices the DNA still provides a good vape.

Dna 20 doesnt have drop down, nominal volage of a battery is 3.7 and full charged is 4.2 so you will never get less voltage than the current on the batterie. Was just an observation for the op to be aware.

I stil think with his condition on the finger the best alternative for him is a kicked meck, put the wattage you want and forget about settings and no turn of, change setting by mistake, lockable switch and is turned off.

Actually it does but bizarrely it doesn't kick in until you up the wattage sometimes - see pbusado's review of the Opus D (16:00) - with a 1.6 ohm head set at 7.0 watts the DNA 20 delivers 3.8 volts (unregulated), upping the wattage to 7.4 kicks in the regulation and drops the voltage to 3.5 volts.
