Personally I always thought ProVape really missed out by not teaming with Evolv for a Provari V3 with Evolv Inside... There's no reason the V2 shouldn't continue to be sold, but a VW Provari with a DNA20 would be freaking epic.

Edit: Now that I think of it, maybe this should be a separate product line. Prowatti, anyone?

IMO, if ProVari came out w/a mod that has VW, VV, plays jingle bells and does laundry, the haters will still hate and find something wrong with it. Too expensive, too heavy, too small, too big, Jingles Bells not fast enough and laundry not clean enough.

Even if it had every single brand new, best feature for every single vaping need, there are peeps that would find something wrong with it just because its a ProVari. So, can't please everyone, don't fix it if it ain't broken.

And wouldn't shoot you Seapup!!! Your info you give me is way too valuable..need to keep you around! ;)

Standing ovation right here!!! :thumbs:

:thumb: This.

I have nine mods, none have variable wattage. I don't need it. I don't want it. All my juice attachments are purchased at the same resistance. Besides, I change voltage to suit my particular flavors, not at a so-called ideal setting for all.

I have mods that use both the single button control, and two buttons for power up and power down. Makes no difference to me.

I'm glad Provape chose the LED screen they use because according to sources it is the most durable screen available. I like durable.

I don't want to do sub ohm. I don't want a puff counter. I don't want to connect my mod to my computer for "updates". I wouldn't use ego-threaded clearomizers on my Provari. I'm relieved my mod doesn't make funny faces at me.

I'm glad that Provape chose to design the Provari to be the safest, most dependable, most reliable, most durable, and most repairable mod on the market. I'm comforted to know Provape will repair my Provari's for as long as I own them.

Totally with you Sir...

I didn't know anybody that vaped, so started vaping with Halo G6 gear that I discovered on my own after doing a bunch of research for a "cig-a-like" that was better than the Blu brand I first saw advertised. They did just fine for starters as one of the best choices IMO, but I was very soon ready to do more than they could do. I toyed with the idea of their Triton line, was waiting for their Twist battery to come out, or considered just diving into the Ego Twist line. About that time the mentor I met on these forums that offered to help me get into vaping beyond the Halo G6 gear was into the Sigelei line of clones then. Their mechanical mods because he liked to tinker with sub ohm and building coils, he had 2 of their then current Zmax V3 VV/VW's and used a lot of Kanger top gear. So I promptly had 3 Sigeli mech mods, their newest Zmax V5 VV/VW, Kanger everything in quantity, started building my own coils to dive into the sub ohm, got into using mesh, etc. His lead even got me started very early with DYI liquids, which I also dove into full spead ahead. So alot to learn came down the track at me all at once. Alot of all nighters doing research to figure it all out and how to improve on it went on for weeks/months. A fair chunk of change was invested in short order into a bunch of gear and supplies and tools. That was all OK, I was along for the long haul. It mostly all worked for starters, no real regrets although I don't really like the Kanger stuff. I wanted more, and I wanted better than the clones. The Megalodon was my break away from the Asian clone mech mods. A solid device made in the UK it has been great for me with all the extension tubes for it I also picked up that makes it a VV in a sense. Even so 99% of the time it is used in '350 config and dripped with a rebuildable compact atty or a drip carto that makes a small package in my hands that is a joy to use and easy to take anywhere. I seldom use the Asian mechanical clones or their top gear anymore because of it. I have liked the Sigelei V5 well enough and do use the VV/VW to run my DYI liquids at their optimum for me. But it also has a lot of features that I never use and knew I would never use before I got in on the preorder for it. IE, I don't need a backup cell phone charger FCOL, could care less about the puff counts, etc. It has been very reliable, but to move forward, after a lot of reading I decided that the ProVari line made in America would be my break away from any future similar clones. The ProVari do all I need or care about from a variable device, and it is constantly said they do it all very well. That is way more than much better enough for me, and their being made in America is solid gold. I will still use the V5 for now anyway and still use the G6 gear sometimes when I go out to run errands, but most of the clones and their top gear will be deligated to the clone bone yard. I've had my first two ProVari devices in hand since Friday, my collection of them will grow, as will a collection of better top gear for them.

There's always something new to keep me up all night it seems, but for the last 7-8 months its almost all been vape related. That works. ;)

Totally with you Sir. Provape needs to continue to do smart business... keep the Provari moving forward efficiently. No need to follow the fly by night and crash in the morning manufacturers... I am sticking with my Provari and hope to grow my collection.

I'm sorry, I just find it hard to reconcile the ProVari's reputation as the "Safest APV on the planet" with "Why can't they make one that will sub-oHm?"

Honestly, If you want more vapor, hold the power button down longer, not, let's take a few wraps off the coil and see if we can get the battery tube to heat up.

SOMEBODY had to say it, and you read my mind PofM. Thanks.

NOT needed.

Variable wattage is highly overrated.

And sub-ohm is irresponsible IMO. When youre draining batteries at a faster rate than they were designed for youre just asking for trouble.

I can get better results (and more fine tuning) with a VV Provari than 98 percent of the VW mods on the market.

When I go to a vape meet and someone starts talking to me about wattage and sub ohms, I quickly tune out and excuse myself as soon as possible.

It was slightly amusing, the first time or two, to listen to them prattle on and act like theyre experts on vaping but it grew tiresome very fast.

Funny thing is, almost every single person I know who's been around for 3 years or more either uses a Provari, a Darwin or a mechanical (with lr atties).
