Hey all. I have a couple questions regarding the Provari. Firstly, Im going to buy one in the next couple weeks no matter what, and am looking forward to the day I receive it. Now, the questions. I have a Vision Spinner and love it to death, but what makes the Provari SOOOOO MUCH BETTER than it? I understand it has a lot of features the spinner doesn't have. But when vaping it on the same voltage as my spinner, will it produce more vapor or something? Is it built so it just is so high quality that it produces tons more vapor than other devices? Anyways, Fill me in. Tanman.

Need help from former MFS (MyFreedomSmokes) customers
Has any found a supplier or company that has tobacco e-juice like or very similar to MFS Turbosmog, Tall Paul, or Red Luck?

It isn't going to blow you out of the water with insane increased vapor production.
It will delivery the voltage to the coil via a different system than what a Twist/Spinner uses. Some can discern this, others can't.
But they are a nice solid device, built very well.

The performance would be consistent. 4v would be 4v throughout the entire life of the battery, and it's spot on.
It's built very well, lets you check atomizer resistance, and just works. I have a v2, but I won't go and push it on you. There are lots of other cheaper VV mods that even offer variable wattage that work just as well or close.

Yeah I have noticed there are a bunch. Im torn between saving money and buying a Vamo or lavatube, stepping up the game with an Evic, or dropping a stack on a Provari

I still enjoy using my ego c twist. However, I feel that my provari affords me more options with regard to my vaping future. For me, it is much better suited for the juice delivery devices, which I am currently using.

If you have the cash, I'd go with the Provari. There are plenty of other great mods, but this is one that's with me "for life", or atleast until ProVape releases an update. You just kind of get attached to it. In the end, it's more of a "premium" thing. You can get an equally good Zmax made in China, of whom many people feel is "cheap", or drop a little more cash and get a more "premium" product made in the USA.
Believe it or not, you will likely end up having multiple devices going at any one time. For me, I have 2 provaris and 2 spinners, each with a different juice delivery device atop and each loaded with a different juice. I like to switch off between them. Especially at times when I'm wanting to chain vape. 
Regarding provaris, sure there are various benefits, such as it being able to detect shorts in atomizers before they do damage to your device, but for me, it's more than that. I trust that it will work every time I pick it up and if by chance it ever fails, I know that Provape will work on it. There are so many other things with vaping that are up in the air... what kind of wicks to use, what kind of wire, how to wrap the various coils and on and on. It's nice to have one thing I don't have to worry about; it just works. But, that's just me.

The Provari is a great device dont get me wrong but it is more of the "look I have one" deal. If you have the disposable income then I would definitely get one because it is solid and everything you could ever want from a VV device. If the price could be the deal breaker then you can get near identical performance from something half the price.
The Provari is not going to produce tons more vapor. It depends on what your delivery system is, the Provari is just your battery holder. With the Provari you get a greater voltage range than your Vision Spinner. With the Provari you can venture into RBA's, but if you find you want to try sub ohm vaping...the Provari will not get you there.
Juice can't tell the difference between the 4v it is getting from a Provari from the 4v it's getting from any other PV. That's not the point. Yes there are small differences in how different PV's regulate voltage, but really 
The differences that make the Provari worth the buck are it's build quality, and the customer service. If something should go wrong with your Provari, you get it fixed. When something does go wrong with your 'made in China' PV, you toss it into the trash.
In the long run, you're fooling yourself if you think you're saving money by buying cheap stuff made in China.

Safety. The ProVari will error out if there is a problem with the delivery device setup. Now that I'm building my own coils, even though I test them with a meter, this gives me a little added piece of mind.
for me, the 1 year warranty and after that repaiable sealed the deal for me. Later i found out if they do update the product, and i want to, I can send it in and there change out the guts for a fraction of the cost.
I'm a buy it once kind of person. I will pay for quality and not just a name. This puppy is for life. The more I use it the cheaper it gets.
Happy vaping

If you can afford a Provari, get it. If you can find a better variable voltage PV, buy that.
Yes, you'll pay more up front for a Provari. But ask yourself this question: how long do you plan to be a vapor? If you plan on weaning your nicotine down to nothing and quitting vaping altogether in the next year or two, then the Provari isn't for you.
However, if you are like the majority of vapors, you'll be vaping probably until the day you die. Your Provari will likely still be in your hand at that moment in time and still be putting out consistant and dependable vapor.
You're paying for peace of mind that Provape will continue to service your Provari for as long as you own it. As someone has already pointed out, you might find a similar device that can give you a satisfying vape, but it will not last as long as a Provari. Something always will stop functioning with any mechanical or electrical device. Anything made in China is a disposable waiting to happen. You'll always be able to get the Provari repaired.
Buy once, cry once; regret it, never.

I just love my ProVaris. They just work, I never remember to shut them off & when I pull them out of my pocket & push the button, they fir. And they are still set the same way they were when I put them in! If I forget to shut off my ZMax, the settings change & If I don't press the button hard enough on the ZMax, it changes setting again! (I've killed cartos & Nova heads because of the changed settings. The Provari won't let you do something stupid with the settings.)
I loved the 1st ProVari so much, I bought a second, just last week. I'm a happy vaper & I think I'm set for a good long time.
If you can still eat & pay your bills, you can't go wrong with a ProVari.

I don't own a Provari but my take on it is that it's a very good device. I understand how it operates and that it's voltage regulation is more superior to cheaper Chinese mods. The regulation alone is what makes it so much different. However, I don't agree with some of the opinions here on ECF that everything made is China is the crud they're made out to be.
Just because you hear more bad things about Vamo's, Evics, etc, doesn't mean there's necessarily more problems with them... it could mean it's because there's more of them being used, so naturally there are more problems being reported. If you consider that almost every computer, laptop, iphone, mac, camera, tv, or just about anything people use daily is either manufactured in China, Korea, or Japan, then where does this opinion come from? I'm certain that anyone banging on these Chinese products are probably looking at a screen made in Korea on a computer made from components made in China. I'd also be willing to guess that almost all components in a Provari are also made in China. It's not the components, it's the design.
That said, you have to take opinions with a grain of salt. If price doesn't matter, you want to be able to have it repaired locally, you want something that will retain good resale value, and also have a superior electronics design, then go with the Provari... but you have to be willing to pay for it.
Later on, you're going to find out that a single APV won't suffice for your vaping needs and then you're going to be out looking for more of them. I have, at minimum, 4 mods set up at any one time. Just how it goes.

It's been my experience (and this has been debated ad nauseam elsewhere) that my Provari works much better with clearomizers than my Vamo. I've been able to run them at a higher voltage on the Provari without getting dry hits and the taste is much better. I even switched a Protank back and forth between them to see if I noticed a difference and it was substantial. I haven't noticed much difference (other than a slight improvement in taste) using cartotanks however.
As noted earlier some people claim to be able to tell the difference and some say they don't but I would hazard to guess that someone who uses primarily cartotanks may not notice as much of a difference as someone who prefers clearomizers.
That said, I still love my Vamo but I use it primarily with cartotanks and use my Protanks with my Provari. I can't speak to RBA or dripping quality but I'll be venturing there soon enough.

You would be wrong, Grasshopper.
