Bottom line is where do you want to take your vape.??

To me it's maximum performance and consistent vape.

All other factors aside, where do you envision taking your vape.

MVP = 11 watts max

Provari = 15 watts max, but one of the best in it's class

dna30 = 30 watts max. If you can find one, get it.

mechanical = ohms law. Great but much knowledge and skill is required to get the most out of a mech.

Find what best suits your needs and expectations, and invest in quality gear, and one can never go wrong.

I wish I had listened to what everyone was saying when I started. I've gone through tons eGo's and even had one blow up on me. I finally decided to get a ProVari and that was all I needed. I now have 3 and couldn't be happier.
I dropped one of them on cement. The button got squirrely and there was a lil' jiggling inside, so I sent it back and it was fixed immediately. No questions asked. 1 year warranty. You will not find a better product or company to deal with.
Watch the video above posted by Sthur. Amazing!!

It's in the new Pbusardo tour video. It's very secretive but definitely a new one coming soon.

Is that the "new" one that everyone - except Provari - has said has been coming for the last two years? Or is this a new new one that Provari has said isn't coming any time soon?

This is the first time that I've seen anyone from Provape admit that one is in the works. And although they still hedge at when it will be ready, I'm quite sure it will be this year.

From the interview, I got the impression that the model is nearly complete, but the final details of mass producing the model is still in the "how to" phase of development. Provape has been working on this model for two years.

I started off using ego style twist vv sticks and didn't care for them much. My first real mod was the iTaste SVD which I still use as my back up. I recently bought the Provari V2 from our local B&M. I love it. Does it do anything that the SVD doesn't do? Yes, No and Kinda Maybe.

1. Quality is superb by a long shot on the Provari compared to countless Mods I tried at the local shops. I went to three stores a couple times each. The Provari feels so dang solid.

2. The customer service is great from everything I've heard. I hope I never have to use it.

3. Size is fantastic. It's noticeably thinner than my SVD. The Provari accepts 18500 and 18650 batteries whearas the SVD accepts 18350, 18500 and 18650 batteries. The difference though is the length. With the 18650 in the Provari it's just a tick longer than the SVD with an 18350. So now I can easily leave the house with just my Provari and the 18650 installed and never worry about making it back home with energy left. I never carried the SVD with an 18650 because it's length is more comical than anything else. It's like carrying a maglight in your pocket.

One Mod I never had the chance to toy around with locally that I was also heavily considering was the SvoeMesto Semovar. To me it looks like it uses an identical board and electronics as the Provari but it's a little more versatile in configurating it than the Provari. That and it has a flat top which is better than the Provari.

If you watch Phil's videos closely, the implication is that ProVape will be coming out with a new device, not an update to the ProVari. The ProVari sells just fine the way it is. The owners spoke of setting up new equipment and finding sources for components of their upcoming product; that doesn't make sense if they were just planning on adding features to the ProVari.

I'm really leaning towards a provari I think I'm just trying to justify doing it lol

You will only have the What have I done? I must be insane! feeling until it's in your hands. After that...you won't think twice about buying the next one, except having to decide on the color. ProVarii can be like potato chips.

    Oh; but you did say vv/vw; provari is vv only.

    For a vv/vw mod I'd suggest the itaste vtr, especially if you use smallish tanks.

    The V3 Provari is in pre-production testing, so start saving your pennies.

    I just really-really think they should send me one for Beta testing :lol:

    Provari seems like a love or hate kind of thing...

    I don't have a Provari, although I'm probably going to get one soon. On this particular point, from my observations, all the "hate" comes from people who don't own one and don't like the price tag compared to the features it has. I have yet to read about someone who has a Provari and doesn't think it's worth it. That's kind of what has me 90% convinced to get one.

    Just my :2c:

    If all you use is clearos and suchlike then yeah a provari will be fine. For the same money you could also buy 5 MVP's which would also be fine for clearos.

    Hard question to answer without knowing your bank balance, attitude to risk and vaping style/habits.

    This micro coil seems to be working pretty well on my Provari

    Provari is good, if you like changing the batteries out. I love my MVP. Last at least two day, even chain vaping. And no changing out. Can plug it in and vape at the same time, if needed.

    Only one problem with that. Do you even know what chemestry your battery is?

    Just so you will know, it's a LiPo. Now type "worlds most dangerous battery" into your search engine, and see what comes up.

    I will not use any PV that I don't have the ability to choose what type of battery I will use in it.

    I just ordered one yesterday. I was vacillating between that and a Provari, and went with the Semovar because of the flat top, the VV and VW, and being able to use it with 18650, 18500, or 18350 batteries with different tubes, and because, apparently, if you get a special bottom switch, it can also be converted to a mechanical mod... so if for some reason the electronics go poof and you don't want to replace the board, you can carry on using it as a mech. So I'm told. Looking forward to handling it and learning more when I get it later this week!
