Why haven't your Provari's got the lovely gnarling on the hand hold?
Is something with gnarling missing from the Provaris?

Me too, budget but quality. I certainly can't afford top shelf gear. But it's all nice to check out, if you know what I mean.Yes audio gear is a deep rabbit hole with Summit-Fi headphones in the $4K-$5K range and common mans gear in the $1K - $2K range, then you need to add a DAC and AMP to that mix.
I am more on the Budget-Fi end of the spectrum though.
The headphones I use regularly are a pair of Fostex T50RP (DBV3 Modification), German Maestro GMP 8.300 D Professional, beyerdynamic DT 880 Pro 250 Ohm on a Little Dot MK IV tube amp and a great bang for your buck pair of Koss Porta Pro Classic's.
I have a ton of older IEMs but use the Campfire Audio orion's and a pair of Rock Jaw Kommand's every now and then. I am not really a fan of the single BA orion's but they are fast and do sound good.
I can't keep up with the latest Chi-Fi offerings, but there are some great choices from KZ (Knowledge Zenith) like the KZ AS16 which is an 8BA per side IEM for $125 off KZ's store on Aliexpress or the CCA (Clear Concept Audio) C10 (1 Dynamic x 4 BA per side) for $40 on Amazon.
There are tons of them out there and they can add up quite quickly if you get bitten by the Chi-Fi IEM bug.![]()

Am I being stupid....it's quite possibleIs something with gnarling missing from the Provaris?
Those teardrops are only on the 2.0/2.5 Minis and the Classic. The P3 and Procyon don't have 'em.Am I being stupid....it's quite possibleYour picture of your two was a smooth finish or am I wrong.....what I meant was like this...
Provari mini ..Silver satin .. LED blue...New in Box | eBay
Maybe only the mini's have it but these are what I remember from 2013 ish in my vape shops here....always too expensive so I didn't get one![]()

Dangerous enablers...but I love ya all!!! 
I like mod so much better with the white smudged/toned down. Blue cap looks good too.Got a bunch of 60ml bottles today, but also, a new matchy PMMA cap for the galaxies RDA on the Blocks pumper (I also smudged a bit of blue color on the very white hand to make it a tiny bit less obnoxious), And, a green drip tip to go with the mini stick (though a bit darker green than matchy matchy):

I am digging it so far. I am getting good flavor and vapor. I don't like that the screws come in fron the side, but I can live with that. Haven't had an oversquonking problem and it is BAF. Not the best but not bad.Galaxy? Reviews were so mixed for that one.
Time to go get my margarita glow on.![]()
I think the "very white hand" as you say, looks way cool. I like both of what you're rockin' there. And the DT matches nicely btw.Got a bunch of 60ml bottles today, but also, a new matchy PMMA cap for the galaxies RDA on the Blocks pumper (I also smudged a bit of blue color on the very white hand to make it a tiny bit less obnoxious), And, a green drip tip to go with the mini stick (though a bit darker green than matchy matchy):

That’s gorgeous !! Glad you love the Creek. It’s my fav rda@NolaMel -----> oh my, my...when you said the Creek was flavorful and heavenly, you are soooo spot on! Yummy
Super quick and easy to setup.
Vaping my DIY vanilla recipe and OMG...good thing I'm sitting. Now I want some vanilla ice cream.
So that brings me to......I just bought a 1-of-1 Luna and good thing the asMODus sale runs through the 30th.

Wasn't even fussy with color - except it had to have blue and purple and maybe a dash of white.
Got this one, enablers...

That's it for me for a looong time...or maybe until July 4th sales!!!![]()
That must've been stressful for everyone. I know in stressful situations things are said and done, and they may not come out as intended, even though best intentions were meant.Husband claimed not to be mad he just said the back and forth was too much for them. He misses the dog now. I don't think he was mad, I may have mistaken "harried" for mad.

Speaking of rabbit hole, I have a set of Infinity Column II speakers. They are still my favorite out of what's currently on the market. The speakers in the picture aren't mine, but same kind. My woofers aren't the originals, replaced with radio shack brand when they deteriorated. Still sound awesome.Yes audio gear is a deep rabbit hole with Summit-Fi headphones in the $4K-$5K range and common mans gear in the $1K - $2K range, then you need to add a DAC and AMP to that mix.
