I paid about $230 for my Provari Mini setup (and it's still not quite complete). The two things going for the mini is a) it looks sexy (especially the display screen and tear drop design) and b) being able to change the voltage for more or less vapor/flavor. Now, is it worth that much money? I think I need to spend more time with it to know for sure. Right now I'm leaning towards not. I think it's worth $150 for the setup. I do like the best of the best things I buy. Before with the kGo I felt a little embarrassed(?) or something because it just looked so cheap.

Oh and I like that you can stand the e cig on its end, so it's straight up. That's cool.

If that is the best that you have found on the Provari, you aren't looking hard enough or in the right places.

I know that the screen can be upside down for the lefties. I figured that out by holding it in my left hand. But thats only if you use your thumb to press the firing button, and then turn it horizontally and turn it right. But like, its not that big of an extra step to just turn it left and push up the bottom instead? Just use your pointer, middle, ring, or pinky to press the firing button, and then when you need to change the screen, turn it right and its not upside down...IDK. I'm trying to figure out how it could possibly be that big of a problem. I wouldn't give a flying frog if the screen were "upside down" for righties. I don't think its upside down for lefties... I don't think the screen COULD BE upside down period lol. Do you really want the 1st number to be on the bottom when your looking at it strait on? In both hands, there are not more extra steps for lefties than there are for righties from my trials.

Anyway, I haven't put mine down either. Its my workhorse for now. :p

Does a right handed person have to go through those gyrations? No!

no.. but we have to go through different gyrations depending on how we're pushing the firing button naturally.. so we both, left and right handed people, have to go through almost equal gyrations.. mostly equal. maybe the lefties have to go through ONE extra step in ONE configuration if they insist on using that configuration of hand to button stature...

I don't care what anyone says.

It may not be helpful to you but its been very helpful for some new vapers. I remember spending a lot of time with some-one on the forum one night until he saw one of those charts and realized what he had been getting wrong. He was using an Ego twist at the time.
