Just curious as to why you decided to spend a substantial amount of money on a 15-20w bare bones device when there are many options out there for less $$$, more power and more features. Better warranty? Buying American? Better vape?

This is not a troll post, as I am just curious.

P.S I bought a Classic today and will likely be picking up another tomorrow.

Well, if you're picking up another one tomorrow then I assume you already answered all of your questions.
Not at all. Just trying to understand why others bought these mods. I am a relative newbie and curious. I know what I like, but don't know why others made the same decision and am curious.

For example, I live in Canada. MIA is not a decision making criteria for me in any respect.

I don't use mine much anymore, but I can answer pretty easily:

Some people are perfectly happy with the ability to adjust voltage up and down, and their "sweet spot" is in the range of the device. For example, for quite a while, I vaped about 1.5 ohms at about 4.5 volts.

For that kind of vape, it's a rock-solid, AWESOME device that is nice to hold, utterly reliable, and can withstand more daily abuse than almost anything else regulated.

I find the menu takes time to get used to, but the main reason I went for the Classic is that I am spending too much time and money vaping 200w mods @ 0.2-0.5ohms when I really do enjoy MTL at 12w and 1.2-1.9ohms. I will do both moving forward but enjoy MTL during the day, in the car, etc.

The reliability factor was reason #2 for me. I hope they last!

Mine are 2 years old, and work like they're brand new.
Threads hold up, buttons hold up...
It is extra clicks to get to "AO" or "Pu" or "Pd" - but for the MOST part, you set it, and just press to vape. No "fiddling". It's a great "no fiddling" mod for MTL at 12 watts - as long as you have a tank on it that gives what you want, I think you'll be very happy with it!!

I just grew to prefer more air and lower ohms - not extreme, but below that range (I'm a squonker now, too). But I still carry my Provari Mini whenever I'm travelling - as a "stealth" vape, and as backup...

my provari mini 18350 is still an awesome stealth vape that i can trust to keep vaping well into the future. many have had theirs for what? 4, 5, even 6 years now, right? twas the 1st VV mod w/ a screen on the market. (next to the vaprlife diamante) and... it's still the hardiest, in my opinion. it's a BRICK. if I could, I'd own 5 by now. pesky monetary system... wish I were born the prince of france...
