Provari Mini ... Please tell me your's is reliable

[MikeB]

I just got my Provari Mini in today, and within three hours the second digit on the display went out. No error code, no other problems, just no second digit. Please tell me this is not common. While I don't mind paying the premium one bit, I will mind if this is what it is like owning one. It just can't be common. If it was, it wouldn't have the great reputation it does. I have contacted Provape, but don't know what they are going to do for me yet...

I realize any and every company will produce a faulty unit every now and then. It's just not avoidable. But that is the logical part of my brain that tells me that. The emotional part is really frustrated that I paid a premium, and instead of enjoying my new PV, I am now figuring out what to do about it. Eh, that's life I guess. I was all pumped to quit smoking this time too. My story here.

Anyway... anyone else had issues like this? I'd really like to hear how rare this is.

I'm sorry to hear about this and I feel for ya. I have had my Mini for two weeks now with no issues. I'm sure the fine folks at Provape will take care of you.

Provape customer service is fabulous, so just email them and they will make it right. I have had no issues with mine either. bnrk

 

[MikeB]

Awesome. Thanks, guys. I can't wait to get this sorted out.

I seriously was checking the tracking about every 20 minutes to see if it was waiting for me at home yet.

Sure hope this works out. And quickly.

No issues here, had it since they first hit the market months ago very reliable.

ProVape will take care of it. While the Provari carries a premium price, their service is amazing. I own three Provari VVs and have never had a problem with a single one of them.

Bought my mini @ 12:10 the night they came out. No issues. Use the warranty, they ship amazingly fast.

 

[hairball]

No problems here and mine was purchased the day after being released.

I own two, and they have had no problems. I know this must be terribly frustrating for you. Provape will take care of you, unfortunately you will be without it while they fix the issue... 8-o

 

[MikeB]

Oops. Sorry I put this in the wrong forum. I forget about the specific sub-forums.

It's good to hear all the positive feedback. I've been out of vaping for about a year and I'm trying hard to get back into it. I don't know as much about these companies as you guys, so its' nice to know they're good people.

I only own one, but from my own experience and what I've read from others, that sounds like a very rare event to be certain. I would go play the lottery right away!

I've had a full size unit since last August. Used it heavily every day since it arrived with no issues. Came to this forum to see thoughts on the mini. I think it's time to downsize

I own a full sized Provari, I loved it so much that I bought a mini... Its a must to have a Provari mini as a backup for your full sized Provari.....

Hmm, I must be the exception again, as I feel a full size backup provari is preferable

I've had mine for 3 months. Only issue was a error code so I cleaned it with iso and viola!

It's been fantastic so far.

The full size is my favorite, but sometimes a smaller one is nice for carry...
Even though you can make the full size shorter with the 18490, the mini is more
comfortable with the 18490 battery due to the extended cap thats used. IMO the extended caps rounded edge fells better in the hand then the standard cap..

I now have 4 Provari's. 3 regular and 1 mini. So I guess you could say I have a back-up for my back-ups, back-ups, back-up. I have owned the first one for over a year and have never had any issues with any of them and have used the crap out of all of them.

4 wow... My 2 are both Satin Black... Do you have a Chrome one? Wondering how well it holds up?

 

[MikeB]

Well Provape sent me a prepaid shipping label since it broke on the first day of use, and I'll get it back after they replace the circuitry. I tried my Bloog again, and I don't think that's going to cut it until the Provari gets back...

I like the idea of the full size provari too. I got the mini for carry, but I'm thinking of getting a full size as a backup and for around the house use -- what with the bigger battery and all.

Freaking crap I want my provari back quick!
