provari ...... or .....lavatube

[amnesiac]

I've had my Provari for just over 2 weeks now. I'm extremely pleased with it. I ordered the satin model (wanted something that would be scratch resistant) 2 18490 batteries, and the charger for like, $205. I know the OP was looking at a black one, which costs more, and the 18650 batts w/extender cap, but you don't have to spend $260, or whatever it was. I absolutely love being able to check the resistance of my atomizer, and this thing s built like a tank.

I've never tried a lavatube. The price on it is nice, though. A little too big for me, maybe.

I wont be surprised when if it does come out, someone is already selling an 18350 version of the lavatube called thunder volt...

Now that is what I’m talking about.

I would Definitely buy something that size to use when I’m out and about.

I don't know 700mAh battery on a vv device might be changing that battery a few times a day

Just depends how much you vape.

For me, I'm looking for a VVPV to use when not at home.

 

[kabonk]

true and they are small batteries so I guess it wouldn't be a big deal to throw a few in your pocket or purse and I probably would buy one just to have one

Iv been planning on getting the lava tube for a couple weeks... all I have is 5 volt mods cant wait to variable volt vape!!

Exactly.

A 700mAh PV wouldn't be my first choice for my only PV. But for someone who has a "Home" PV a Smaller, reasonbly priced VVPV for the running errands would be perfect.

The problem is that once you start using a VVPV than a non-VVPV seem crude. I use an eGo when out and about for its size. But when at home its all about a Provari.

you're right again after using vv my unregulated 3.7v mods just seemed lame good thing they held most of there value for resale

Yeah, and I don't really want to spend another $175 for another Provari just to use in the car.

A $80 VVPV with a Digital Readout sounds great. And if the size is the same as a 18490/18500 Provari or Smaller, well, that is a Slam Dunk in my book.

That thunderbolt is more expensive than the lavatube and smaller?

I'm not really sure.

The link that Sacker posted has this picture.

I'm assuming that the PV on the right is a Thunderbolt (aka Lavatube) and the PV on the Left is a Mini-Thundervolt.

All this stuff is Very New. Guess we will just have to wait and see what becomes avaliable in the USA.

I have a Lavatube and the second in order.
I find the ProVari too heavy and ugly
The Lavatube does his work for little money, o.k. he is ugly too, but cheaper
The compromise of both is the Buzz for me and i ordered one yesterday

 

[kabonk]

I thought about the buzz pro but I don't like the way the 510 connection sticks up I think it would make a tank look awkward or top heavy

The buzz isn't ugly?

Granted, I wish my ProVari was the size of an eGo. Given it has to be as big as it is to hold the battery, voltage meter and whatever else it holds, I find it to be the nicest looking out of the three (buzz, lavatube, provari).

 

[Stormiefury]

Ok I'm looking at either another provari, the joker (in purple of course) or another silver bullet (this time purple not pink) but I seriously can't decide. I love my provari but not sure I see a point in having 2. OOOOOOOOOOOOh my ..............ooo lookie a bunny

That`s what i want to say
My english and Google cooperated not perfectly

Provari times 2 for me and a krimon kustom evercool VV for my smaller device the krimson will fire dc cartos at any volts.The provari is tops imop just get 2.0 and up cartos.I have never understood those that ..... about pushing a simple button for menu.I guess if you change up voltage every hit you take it would be a pain!

 

[Muramasa]

if $$ IS NOT an issue, i'd say provari. u will like how solidly built it is.
if $$ IS an issue, then lavatube. it almost feels like a toy in hand but works like it should, so no complain.
I have both and provari stays at home in a comfy cushion while lavatube goes out to work and take some knocks.
Provari is too precious to be knocked =p

I have the black provari.......I think I should get the other one for a spare to carry around everyone says it doesn't get dinged up.
