I have quite a few problems with Provape's Provari that I just needed to share with you guys.

Let me list them as follows:

1. They have a product that is only 99 percent accurate as far as what you set for is what you get. Why, a 100 percent is beneath you guys.
2. The fact that I can hold it in my hand without it protruding a couple of inches above is too difficult I like the idea that people think I am carrying a small pipe bomb.
3. This fact that just before the battery dies the last vape is as good as the first really disturbs me. You couldn't have the battery start to die at 3.7 volts so I can get a heads up.
4. I really do not like the fact that I have to press the power button five times to power on. Do you know how much time I have to waste.

5. Then you have two screws above and below the menu. Even though I cannot see it and it is flush to the device is not an excuse. I just think about it in my head.
6 The engraving on the device hurts my thumb went I touch it. That is truly annoying.
7. What is with those teardrops? My girlfriend loves it. I really do not like when my girl gives me a compliment.
8. Having your product made in America so some American can have a job is totally appalling. Why China was not good enough where indentured servants can make a few dollars upsets you guys that much. Too many Americans are employed as it is..You need to add to help the American economy...What nerve!

9.You have something against the us postal service for not charging a shipping price.
10. You can't make this device shoot out 25 watts. I need to have vapor coming out of my ears...Really, was this that difficult.

11. I really do not like the fact that I can not hear the cap screw on. I want to hear as much noise as possible.

You guys need to get up to speed or I will only buy one more provari rather than 2.

On the other hand, The Vamo has very minute problems relative to your product. Let me just list a few that do not bother me in the slightest.

1. so what when I try to fire on with 5 presses of the button, I have to do it twice for it to work.
2. The fact that when I stack batteries in the device I only have to take the batteries out about 4 times and place them back in the tube for it to power on...I have no problem with that.
3. The fact that it has three buttons and your device only has one is just wonderful...you could not handle such a complex improvement to your device.

So what that I had a 2ohm carto dual coil working for 2 days at 5 volts and 12.5 watts. Then when I set the same setup at 12.5 watts and my carto fried up. What is a one volt mistake between friends...I have too many cartos anyway.

4. I like the idea that you can set the wattage at a certain level but when you go to look at the voltage it returns to the default of 3. Internally it adjust the voltage. Why do I need to see it. Read sentence above.
5. What is the big deal that when the battery gets to about 3.6 volts the Vamo start to die a slow death. At least the Vamo is giving me a heads up.


My suggestion to Provape is to get with the program and start using better quality control.

I hope you guys do not get upset with this thread, This is only my opinion.:2cool::2cool::2cool:

Both devices have their merits and bad points, so I'm not going to say anything in case the Provarinari come knocking on my door.

And yes, I have both. So I have compared them. Let's just say I'm in the minority or maybe even the only one who prefers one over the other.

Don't flame me. Different folks, different strokes. Whatever works for you is great.

These are the type of threads that probably makes a lot of people really hate certain provari owners.

But I found it funny nonetheless.

Ripping on another mod (Vamo) that is popular and used by a lot of people was a little out of order, though. Condescension never got anyone anywhere.

Yeah, I mean who's hating on a Provari anyway? I dont see people hating on any device really. At the end of the day its a battery, I dont think its something you can really develop that much of an emotional investment about lol

Was this really worth a page long thread? If you hadn't noticed ECF doesnt like people stirring up antagonism.

The issue that I have with OPs original rant is that it seems like he's issuing an "anything less than a Provari is beneath me" decree. Sure, it may be an absolutely incredible, superior vaping device, but not everyone can afford to spend upwards of $300 bucks for a mod. I still use cig-a-likes and only recently ordered my first clearomizer kit (EVOD). Does that make me inferior?

Never said anything about hating on the product itself. I have said it is a good product. Maybe threads like this should belong in the Provari subforum.. not cluttering up the New Members forum.

I agree with everything you said...The nerve on this guy for giving his opinion.

Stick around...

And remember, it's just an e-cig...new mantra some of you need to adopt.

We get it, man do we EVER get it...you like your provari.

Dont worry dracu won't be able to start new threads in the new members forum for much longer. He appears just so happy, he could not contain himself.(I guess) But I agree, jest is one thing but don't dis another product unless you really have owned it and are unhappy with it.
And remember, attact the post, NOT the poster.

I do have the VAMO and I think it is far superior to the Provari...I am a Vamo fanboy.

No I just meant the post was written from a threatened standpoint as if the good points of a provari needed to be cheerled and the Vamo needs to be torn apart by anybody. I was responding to the OP and just referenced what you said.

I had both before I sold my provari and theyre both just batteries, you push a button and vape, and one costs alot more than the other. All my mods were the same more or less. Nothing to get the torches and pitchforks out about.
