If I've said anything offensive, I apologize. I have a matter of fact type of way and it can sometimes be taken wrong.
If they work for you, great. On the other hand, they have worked out badly for others...
They have been fine. minor probs here and there but better than carting around an oxygen tank or dealing with chemo. Ive pif'd 2 of them. One to my mom and another to a friend. Was just wanting to move up to IMHO my next level.
Confused needing further clarification or just stirring the porta potty? ---> http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/491177-new-realization-provari-7.html#post11265654
Just me, if the Provari cost $300 more than they do I'd still buy them.
The price of a Provari is less than what I spent on 2 weeks worth of cigarettes.
I need an APV that is durable, able to survive what is a normal days work for me, preferably many of them.
I want an apv that is accurate reliable & consistent.
Other than a darwin and titinade I put away before they broke the thousands Ive spent on other apv's have been a total loss.
Not a single APV besides the Provari (none, zip, zilch zero, nada) used everyday has survived longer than 28 days, some only hours.
The only loss I've had using Provari's is the one that was crushed flat, it survived 11 months of everyday use.
Not everyone works in a controlled environment or has the time or inclination to find/make a safe nest to keep an apv so it doesn't break from just being used in conditions the owner needs it to function in.
The difference between 800hz chip (provari) vs the 33.3 - 37 hz chip (most others) is real as in it can be seen on a oscilloscope & heard by ear.
I notice quite a bit of improvement in vape quality, you may not.
Oled screens and the nivel & dna20 are too fragile for my use.
The devices available with direct drive/flat line output are not in my experience as durable/resistant to extreme conditions as the provari.
Not trying to be rude or snobbish,,,
IMO, yes they really are that good.
If the Provari doesn't offer a feature(s) you want/need it isn't for you.

...and there you have it...facts. I can get behind facts.
Due to this thread I just ordered the mini 2.5 zombie...I'd blow more than that on clones etc over the next few months anyway.
One of the guys I work with just spent $60K on a pickup truck. I think that's insane, and I think I'll tell him he's stupid.
Ok, now that's out of the way.
There's what you can afford, and there's what you can justify. As long as it makes YOU happy, what does it matter what the next guy does?
And as I've posted before, is a Provari worth the cost? YES, because people are buying them. Consumers vote with their wallets, and the consumers say Provari is good equipment.
(I don't own one currently, but I probably will, at some point, purchase one.)

Masterchief, you know you are the man! I appreciate your thoughts, experiences and contribution to the forum. You and Dam718 (Senior Navy Chief-Ret) are my battle buddies!
I'm more or less wondering why someone would purchase one) I'm not saying it's a downgrade,, its justt not the big kid on the block anymore... I think people are willing to drop the cash because of the name not because of the quality,, but i can't judge until i've used one. ;P.
All of you with more than one ProVari, how dare you keep downgrading like that!
I'm trying to understand how you partook in so many threads praising the ProVari only to come up with the stuff you said here.
I only want one more downgrade. A version 2 custom cut down.
These will last he rest of my life.

It has been suggested that an angry girlfriend said, "No"
Whether or not this is true...why not just get rid of the troublesome GF, and get your ProVari? You can always get another girl.
Beaten to death. So it can't hurt to beat it a little more.
I'm ordering a ProVari because (not ALL the reasons, just mine):
1) SO many people who get one immediately post comments saying that it VAPES BETTER - they don't know why, but they can tell a difference. They are not all lying, or trying to make themselves feel good post-purchase. Too many for that.
2) Personally, I'm convinced it MIGHT just be due to the Hz difference. I mean it could be magic, but this is a legitimate possible explanation for a difference in the vape compared to, say, my SVD or VAMO.
3) Durable and reliable don't hurt. Not my top motivators - I haven't broken a mod yet, but it doesn't hurt.
4) Form factor is a plus - I MIGHT be able to carry a Mini around in my suit pocket - right now, I go back to Ego batteries for that.
5) If I DON'T find it better, and I find myself wishing I'd gotten 2 more VAMO's or something, the resale value is ridiculous. I've watched the classifieds, and they sell for maybe 15% less than new prices.
Basically though, #1 and #2 are enough for me to buy one.
I'm just getting all the little crap I want with it first (carto-tank, batteries....I'll be wanting a pro-ring if you know a good source).

I take my spinners and e roll to work and out and about.. then I get home and vape on my Provari. In fact if I am at home I am vaping on my Provari. However to me this was not a HUGE expense. My non-vaping boyfriend bought it for me for my birthday and I LOVE IT.
If you have to ask yourself multiple times if it is worth the money than don't buy it. I could sit and name every great thing I love about it but, that is not what the OP is looking for. He is looking to JUSTIFY the purchase. All I can say is that I love mine and it was worth every penny I didn't spend....
I can also say that if he had not have bought it... I gladly would have.

There's only about a thousand threads titled "Why is a Provari better than a "name your cheap piece of junk". Can't anyone use the "search function"?

I got it before I got it!These threads are always fun to follow, because they will be followed in time by the "now I get it" thread.
Hell I managed to hold out for a year before I got a Provari.A Silver Bullet and a Mako made sure that I never went without a good vape tho' while I wasted money on the latest & greatest from China.
Seriously though I believe researching anything to do with a ProVari has to be done with an open mind.
If people would stop looking at us as fanboy/girl they'd actually see we're informed shoppers.
As Thrash said, anyone can ask a question and have it intelligently answered. For some reason people don't like the answers they receive. It's not my job to talk someone in or out of a ProVari purchase.
What they do with their money is their business but don't insult those who've made the decision to spend THEIR money on a device YOU feel is not worth it. I purchased my ProVari and REO because I wanted the best of both worlds.
The bashing ProVari gets (IMO) is pointless and so unnecessary. There's something for everyone and no one that I'm aware of was forced to by 1 to 20 ProVarii.
