Provari V3?

[Impulso]

I never said VV was too dificult. I said it's less convenient than VW, which it is. I would personally rather control the OUTPUT of my device than the INPUT.

I finally have a provari after being in the same boat as yourself. I too have an MVP, but I never use the VW setting because of the lack of good voltage regulation as the battery drains. What I have found is that the provari seems to do a very good job of being able to maintain the voltage. dna 20/30(supposed to be released this month) probably do as good a job, but am not sure.

I'm a fan as I like the ability to be able to get the same flavor/taste from beginning to end. That to me is worth the price of admission.

Do you find a difference from your mods as the battery drains?

 

[glassgal]

Yah... that was puzzling... the Provari doesn't change settings unless you change the settings. It doesn't even turn off when you take the battery out. You can pop the battery in and out as the shutoff button.

I just wanted to point out that this sounds like my dad when smartphones first came out. Why would he need all those extra features he said, "After all, I know how to make a phone call". All jokes aside, are you implying that somebody who prefers VW to VV does not know how to vape? That would be incredibly close minded of you. I've already pointed out why VW is more convenient for people who rebuild their own coils, and I'm pretty sure that if you know how to rebuild your own coils then you most likely know how to vape.

I build my own coils and VW is a non-factor to me so I am not sure why you're insisting the ProVari have VW when there are so many other devices that would meet your wants/needs.

Oh to add, almost all DNA mods are more expensive than the provari. However the DNA mods don't do VV as far as I know. They are only VW(please correct me if I'm wrong)

I have a 1.5 month old eVic that does VV and VW. It sits on the box on my desk just waiting for me to put it on ebay.
I purchased it new for $100, I see them listed for 1/2 that price. Thats what VW means to me.

I'm not sure from your last 2 sentences if you're talking about the ProVari but when you change it's battery, nothing resets.

Oh No not the provari other devices. Basically saying it was convenient on them but useless on provari. Should have explained better

I'm really not insisting on it, I was just pointing out that VW seemed like an obvious progression for the Provari and I did not want to buy a Provari if a VW version was going to be released any time soon. Since that time I've been dragged into arguments about VW being a viable feature and even had my knowledge of vaping in general called into question. I'm perfectly comfortable in my understanding of vaping, rebuilding coils, and most importantly Ohms Law so this does not offend me; it is just off-putting to get such a negative, defensive response from what I assumed was a relatively friendly community.

What you probably want to look at is a Semovar. It has the variable wattage, build quality, and features you are looking for. The ProVari probably won't have the VW in the near future. Another mod to consider is the Futura which seems to be getting good reviews now. It's just been through a bit of a rough release though. The Semovar maxes out at 3.5 Amps like the ProVari but is great if you're vaping is mostly low to intermediate. The Futura uses the DNA20 chip and is great at high power but less so once you get down to 7 watts. There are rumors of a DNA30 coming out soon but there are always rumors.

I build my own coils on most everything I own. After a while you just kind of know what voltage worked well for a particular resistance and juice I am using. Sometimes I do forget and have to glance over at my voltage chart (takes 2 seconds). After it's set I'm more worried about the rest of my day and never really fiddle with the settings at all. If you are that set on VW then get a DNA 20 mod. There are plenty out there. Also I can recommend the Semovar. I love it but only use the VV setting as I still know what voltages I like.

How is VW a 'progression' when everyone who has one, or 3 in my case, consider it worse than the Provari's VV?

 

[stevegmu]

Ancient ProVarian proverb say, 'WV is the gotcha non ProVarinati proclaim makes the ProVari an outdated dinosaur; those of us in the know are illuminated by the fact that ProVari don't need VW to be a superior APV- the vape and taste speak for themselves.'

I wouldn't agree with that statement. I am happier with my Vamo than I would be with a ProVari. Debating the Semovar versus Futura thing now.

I just want to start this thread off by saying I did a basic search and didn't find a similar thread. Also, from what I can tell on the Provape website, they are currently on V2.5 but I'm not sure how it differs from previous releases. Here's the deal: I would LOVE to get a Provari in the very near future but I'm hesitant because I have a creeping feeling that a new version is imminent. Despite the obviously amazing performance of the Provari, I'm turned off by the crude user interface and lack of variable wattage. It seems to me that it would serve Provape well to release a new version with a completely overhauled user interface in the near future, as they are quickly making themselves look outdated (IMO) by not offering VW and/or a more elegant menu system. So do you think a new, overhauled Provari will be released any time soon? Do you think it's necessary? Do you think I should wait?

There are many threads 'is the Provari outdated? Why doesn't it have VW? When is the next version coming out?' You bring up VW as a point and then wonder why you get push back on it? Frankly, FOR ME, it doesn't make a difference. Either way, I'm going to adjust my device a bit to find the sweet spot for each juice so VV or VW isn't a compelling feature for one vs the other. If you like what it offers now, buy it. If you don't, then don't. Do you feel bad each year when the new model cars come out?

Here's some reading for you since your basic research didn't find it - all within the last month - so maybe you'll appreciate why some of us are tired of this discussion:

One more question for current Provari owners: Would you feel alienated and/or MAD by the release of a new, more fully featured Provari? Because if I had spent that kind of money and a better version of released, I would be fuming! That's what I'm trying to avoid. Why do you feel an update isn't necessary and won't happen any time soon?

I wouldn't be fuming over something that petty. Life is too short. Vape with what ya got and have fun, who cares what comes out when, and if it has more buttons. It's the nature of technology and innovation and is part of the game.

I'm glad you asked. VW allows the user to control the POWER output of their device, regardless of what resistance the coil may be. This allows the user to find a wattage setting that works good for them no matter which coil they may put on their device. Obviously, this makes for a more convenient setup as the user is then able to control the OUTPUT of their device as opposed to the INPUT. I'm not surprised that people find VW devices to be worse than the Provari (in fact I expect it!). After all, Provari makes an extremely high quality product whereas most VW devices are produced in China to a lower quality standard. This does NOT however take anything away from the fact that VW is inherently more convenient than VV. This is also why I would love for Provari to make a VW device- I know they would do it right.

You need to just buy a Provari, because til you have one, you have no basis of comparison. There are things 'specs' don't tell you... such as the feel of silk, the taste of chocolate, the touch of an IBM key, the sensation of getting to pee after holding it for 5 hours longer than you wanted to... and a Provari.

 

[Ozwald]

Alright, I'm out... gotta rest up before this exact same thread pops up again tomorrow, just like it did yesterday.

 

[ScandaLeX]

I did just that. I thought the 2.0 full size looked better than the 2.5 new model full size, so I bought the old one.

Sort of like... I'd rather have a yard sale rusty old hammer that was made when steel was really good stuff any day of the week over a generic new mystery metal hammer at Home Depot.

I don't get it?

There is no difference between 2.0 & 2.5 other than aesthetics.

Well, if you can't TASTE a difference, then what do you care what the power is? That's like saying you want to buy a meter to see how salty your food is, when you can simply shove a bite in your mouth and add more salt.

I'm still not seeing the purpose of VW. Anyway, just yesterday the inventor of the DNA20 chip (or the guy who sells them, not sure) was on this forum defending his product, and he did say that they were working on a newer version. It would be nice to have another American made box device and the DNA20 I've seen are very very cute (and colorful).

So you should get one of those if you love the VW so much. But from the sheer number of people here (ALL of whom have more batteries than just Provari) telling you how amazing the Provari is, maybe you owe it to yourself to find out what you are missing?

I know. Point is, when it just works, the only thing to care about is the asthetics.
