Just got mine 3 days ago and haven't put it down yet.... I have the MVP 2 also and they both do what they are supposed to and they do it well. Provari is built to last, provides a really great, consistent vape and is damn sexxxy!!!!
Provari...why

oh thank GOD someone else vapes that much
some people don't believe me when I say I could drain a 3200 (3600???) mah MVP2 in 5 hours,,,,,,,(sometimes longer, of course, depends on how busy I am that day, but I CAN and I HAVE drained one that fast quite often)
Yeah I charge mine daily but im in the yellow by quitting time lol
sent from the s4 of DOOOM

Uh... I usually drain THREE high drain 18650s (AW, Panasonic green, Orbtronic hybrid IMR) plus 2 18350s (AW), plus 2 16340s per day. I'm not kidding. And, every other day, an additional 18350 (for the epipe)
(this is partly because I fiddle with my coils enough to short at least 2 of them a day, causing my battery to discharge? I don't know)

how many ml a day do you vape????????and where the heck were you when I was told "I don't believe you"???
and where the heck were you when I was told "I don't believe you"???
I didn't see the "I don't believe you"... but I woulda said something
. I think it's the WAY I vape... I have a bad habit of huffing my vapes, that is, puff puff puff puff really fast short puffs over a long firing period for max flavor. That's a battery killer. How much juice per day... typically about 5 ml, but it's HOW I vape it that puts wear on batteries I think. I've been trying to change my vape style, but it's hard to do, because I don't get sufficient concentration on a straight pull...
ah, I see,,,,I didn't see the "I don't believe you"... but I woulda said something
I vape about 14 ml a day,,,,,,,some days more, some days less,,,,,,,but I have no life
I hit that button hard too,,,,,,,but I take long puffs,,,,,

I go through 2 2000mah 18650's a day myself.
You have VW in your provari already.
Why does everybody forget that watts are an un-avoidable by product.
The provari IS VW, you just have to calculate what wattage you are at with your volts.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled...
Not you though glassgal...for the people still super confused about it.

I drain me some batteries too. But CommaHolly whoops me with her 14ml per day.
When I mentioned that I did 10-12 on some days, someone asked me if I took time to breath. Well, yeah! With every vape!!!

Exactly. Watts are the measurement of the power produced, which in our case means the amount of heat generated to vaporize the e-liquid. When one adjusts the voltage, the watts are automatically adjusted. When one sets the amount of watts they want produced, the voltage is automatically adjusted to produced that amount. They are just two methods to get to the same place.
As far as calculating what voltage to set the ProVari at according to the resistance of the juice delivery system to produce the desired watts, owners quickly find that after using the device for awhile it's rarely necessary. For example, I know the approximate resistance of the toppers I have, because I bought them. When I attach a new one for the first time I check the resistance to make sure I got what I ordered and because there are slight variations to how they are marked. Based on my vaping experience, I know roughly how many watts I like (roughly, because it changes from juice to juice) and after setting it there for the most part it's forgotten, except for some tweaking throughout the day as my taste often changes; however, I rarely look at the settings again, since I vape to taste, not numbers - too cool, I turn it up, too warm, I turn it down.
With my "variable wattage" devices (I dislike that term, since it's misleading), the same amount of tweaking throughout the days is necessary due to changes in the juice, my taste and the topper used. Proponents of VW claim that it's superior for people who switch toppers frequently, since the voltage is automatically adjusted, but one has to consider that only works if you like every juice, in every different topper, at the same exact temperature (watts). Otherwise, you will be tweaking the power just like with variable voltage. I admit that I do leave my VW devices in the wattage mode, but that's because I find the menus a pain to deal with.
There is only one juice I really like, so I have it in different toppers for variety. Depending one what kind of device I have on top, it varies between 7 to 8 watts, since each one is slightly different. And in my bottom-feeders I like it as hot as I can get it, since they are unregulated, I have to switch batteries a lot.
As I said, VV and VW are just two methods to get to the same place. One can also change the amount of watts produce in a fixed or unregulated device by changing the resistance of the topper. The point of my rant here is that what a person prefers to use is the issue, not that any method is significantly superior to the others.

My iTaste VV v3 is my first variable battery. It also has VW. I played with the VW for about a day. Then I set it back to VV, and it's been in VV mode since. In my opinion, VV gives me better (more direct) control feedback than VW. I set it to taste, and the only reason why I even bother to look at the display, is out of curiosity. The ohm meter is nice, though.
Anyway. I'm done browsing. I have figured out exactly which features I need, and which features are irrelvant to me. To be specific about what features I find relevant: VV, Ohm meter, reliability/accuracy, battery safety, pocketability/ergonomics, absence of feature bloat, indestructibility, and last but not least, not looking like a freakin' light sabre.
The conclusion: I'm just waiting for one of my current batteries to die. That will officially be my excuse to get me a ProVari.
And since I don't see the appeal of sub-ohming, I think it may also be the last (knock on wood). In short: Yeah, I'm already sold. Count me in.

Hi System
... I know, I meant SET my VW vs my VV where there was a choice. I rotate through a whole lot of mods most of the time, and I still have little egos in my rotation too (that's how I do my drippers, on little egos, or the flavor hit would make me gag). I understand the theory of how VW is supposed to work (adjusts volts for you automatically), but I don't think it works. If it did, I wouldn't have to change it all the time. Grant you, I do not have any Hana mods or DNA20 or 30, maybe they are to VW as Provari are to VV mods. But trying VW setting all at once across a bunch of different mods (in VW, I have itaste 134, VTR, MVP2, VV V3, and Sigelei ZMax), it was just terrible, and I didn't see the attraction. If I set Voltage, I rarely have to change it again. I had to fiddle with the VW all day long. I was planning to try it for a week, but I just got tired of it. VW just doesn't fit into rotational vaping. It sounds backwards from the VW theory, so maybe the theory needs some work.
I would vape more at work if people would just LEAVE ME ALONE and quit knocking on my closed office door. I work from home Thurs and Fri and it's an all day vape event, haha. I can't wait for those days.
I'm pretty well on record as saying I see no difference between the two (VV & VW). As long as it's variable, I'm good with either. A good device remains a good device, and vice versa. Features don't impact the assessment in my case.
Tap, tap, tap... Talk.

you probably work,,,,,I do not.
True! But, in total fairness, you whoop me either way. My work day is 6-8, with the non work days ringing up the 10-12.
So, you rule!!!

Ugh. Those are some long days. I work 8-5 (or about that time...thank God I'm not hourly or I'd be screwed) Mon-Fri. And usually take 2 hour lunches. Those rock
