Provari, the ax has come for you

[ScandaLeX]

What happened to the Reos?

Both of them vape like they're underpowered no matter how high or low I build my coil. I can't rely on the Grand cause the tube is always coming off. & the Mini same thing.

I always wonder if those who complain about cost of mods only buy generic brand less clothing, shoes and accessories...

I see these "death of the Provari" posts at least twice a year, honestly it's not going anywhere.
If you feel like you need 50-60 or even 100w to get a decent vape the Provari is not for you. However, there IS a market for people who don't need that much power and those people will love the Provari and it's quality not to mention customer support.

Only twice a year?
You must not come here often. LOL!

I couldn't have said it better myself.

But these do remain my all-time favorite threads to find & play in. So, thanks OP.

Nah ... that's what counterfeits are for

But you do realize there are people out there buying Provari/s that know nothing about tootle puffing, cloud chasing or even ECF?

I'm going to have to read the other thread. I know nothing about tootle puffing either.

i haz a sad for you, although they seem a little underpowered to me too.

You have to admit there are fewer than there used to be. I think it has to do with box mods being the current Hot Toys and people are too busy comparing those to each other. Although I don't think quite so nastily.

I have noticed that Provaris really don't get recommended at all to the new guys and gals. Small difference.

You have to remember that it wasn't too long ago when the only choices were eGos, crap from China and ProVaris. And, of course, Reos, but at that time most new members didn't know what they were and the idea of a box mod turned them off. It wasn't until the MVP came out that people started seriously considering box mods.

Holy CRAP FEST!

Are we about done here? I think there has been enough immature dialog in this thread to last me a lifetime!

ENOUGH!

That's true, but as recently as August I remember seeing quite a few people recommending the Provari. I just thought with the recent price drops it'd be recommended more.

..... [snipped] Truth is I don't have to prove even to myself that it's a good thing to do. I just want one.

& this is why I bought mine. I'm too old to feel I need to justify my purchases. If I want it I'll buy it & to anyone that has an issue as to what I spend my $$$ on, they can kick rocks!

I don't get why there is so much ....*hurt over other people's choices. Anybody want to be mad....In total this Provari was $517. because I wanted to accessorize it. Was it worth it to ME? Yep!!!! & it didn't cost any of you a dime!

This ProVari cost $130.00, but the groovy cartridge was $4.00.

Well, that's understandable, but I dont just read what I want to read. I have read through all of the thread and most of the 'more' people are stating they get is that it is reliable/durable and fits their needs. There are other companies out there that are as reliable as Provari with similar or better mods, which are durable as well, and reasonably priced. All in all, the backlash i see from some of these posts are just the reliability of the company and the mod, and people saying dont worry about how other people spend their money, which is kind of directly tied to the subject in hand, the cost of the provari. I am looking it in a way as why is the price worth it, if there are similar products out there that compete with it, that still work for that same niche of users that provari seems to aiming for.

You've said this often in all the Provari threads of this type. I'm curious if it's not for you, why all the concern over it. People have stated their feelings about why they choose Provari but it doesn't seem to be enough for you. I *think* I recall you saying you'd never own one (I could be wrong) so why do you care so much? Use what makes you happy!

I am trying my best not to add another Provari to the family this weekend ... this Memorial Day sale puts the trigger at $90

 

[ScandaLeX]

im not referring to any companies in particular, just out of all the companies I doubt all of them are unreliable chinese junk as some people say. If it's track record we are going for though, I'll get back to you in a couple years and let you know how my vaporshark and beyondvape solara are doing, as I've only bought those last year. As of right now they are holding up fine though. Just because they are newer companies with less of a track record though, doesn't make them less reliable as provari. In a few years though, the same 'provari has a track record' reasoning if they dont up their game will become more and more unreasonable as a valid reasoning for their pricing. Maybe they just got lucky because they got into the game early, to me it just seems that is in fact the reasoning and only reasoning people have given, because they got in early and were part of the 'original reliable mods', therefore that 'legacy' lives on of reliability, as someone said in this thread earlier.

I don't need a couple of years to let you know how my Vapor Shark is doing. Mine was a cyber Monday purchase--rec'd late Jan or early Feb & it's now unusable. I cannot make adjustments but my Provari/s still work fabulously!

 

[ScandaLeX]

dig up reasons how provari price is justified other than reliability. Telling me I don't care? How do you know what I think? I am just giving input on the thread topic, maybe I am ignorant to other qualities of provari that justifies the pricing, but the same old reliability reasoning just isn't cutting it for me. There are obviously a lot of people out there who want to defend the pricing or counter argue my arguements, why don't they dig up the info if they care so much? I mean there can be reasons why, I've given some tidbits of how it could be justified. Like me posting that their website only lists the materials as 'stainless steel' and not any specific kind of stainless steel, maybe you can enlighten me as to what specific grade stainless steel they use, or the benefits/differences their chipset has, maybe the paint they use is super chip resistant. I haven't really read anything specific other than replies of reliability which I already agreed on can be a good reasoning to buy it for some people.

I don't understand how some of you have to keep arguing and end up complaining/attacking with no backup or kind of proof or statistics, that just because someone is on one side, you feel the need to attack them just because they do not agree with you. I'm not arguing just for the sake of arguing, im discussing the topic and trying to understand other peoples point of views. So far there has been only 1 reasoning given, and good for that but it doesn't justify it for me specifically. I am not saying it doesn't justify it for other people, just for me it's not a reasonable explanation, and based on that reasoning my opinion is that 'Provari is getting the ax', if you don't feel that way, then explain, because riding the train of reliability isn't gona last long, a 'Legacy' only goes so far when these companies coming out with well made devices are still here 2+ more years down the road.

Here's a thought..... You can contact Provape directly. They'll be more than happy to answer your questions. In the meantime have you seen the PB tour of Provape video?

I must then apologize for my part, Robin. If it upset you, that's good enough for me.

I'm not crying like TO, but I truly AM sorry.

Honestly, "Fanboys vs. Haters" threads like this have grown tiresome.

Bottom line: Some people think Provaris are worth the money, some don't.
