As some may know all of my "RAW DUCK"s are videos, but i thought this was 'typed word' material. I don't usually do this,, so this is special to me
I have only had this device in my hands for a few hours, but already had in mind what I was going to do. This isn't a praise , a pros/cons thread, or even an opinionated one (even though I love it already)
I just wanted to share some random observations that some might find useful. Sorry if this has be discussed already I don't always have time to search for redundancies (feel free to post a link to any previous dated threads on this )
OBSERVATIONS:
Tests:
load used 3.3ohm 30w resistor for constant resistance
L=Loaded voltage U = unloaded
Multimeter : Fluke 27 calibrated
I only tested a few settings covering lowest/highest and 2 mid
Fully charged battery;
Almost depleted Battery; * explanation after data
For the most part the device stays constant.. Loaded voltage being lower than unloaded seems to be unavoidable. It appears that when low battery warning occurs that even though when "Cb" voltage states that you are not at the assumed "low battery" voltage that the indicator is activated because the load drops the voltage to the "low" point. It is more likely to occur with the atty resistances lower than my 'controlled' resistance;reason being my control was at a higher ohms than my 2.5 atty that caused the alarm....
Keep in mind this is my first test.. and one would need more time for further tests. It's just takes time since more tests would require recharging and or going through the depletion process again (which I got vape dizzy trying to put together this first test )
Hope this helps current owners, soon to be owners, and owner contemplaters
Feel free to add any of your findings/results even if it contradicts mine

OBSERVATIONS:
- Installing a fresh (dry) atty: either prime with liquid first or set the provari to a lower voltage PRIOR to installing atty. prevents accidental burn outs
- when making drastic changes in voltages once in the Pu/Pd menu you can hold the button down to scroll through the voltages. This will limit button presses and prolong the button life
- When CB (checking battery voltage) keep in mind the atty activates (at a low voltage NOT at set voltage) Edit: actual voltage 3.25v
- Ao Checking Ohms will not activate the atty Edit: correction it does activate it but at 2.25v
Tests:

Fully charged battery;
- 3.3set L = 3.28 U = 3.29
- 4v set L= 3.87 U= 3.99
- 5v set L = 4.82 U=4.99
- 6v set L= 5.83 U=6
Almost depleted Battery; * explanation after data
- 3.3v set U= 3.25
- 4v set U= 3.83
- 5v set U= 4.89
- 6v set U= 5.83
