The Vmax is starting to look pretty tempting.

$150 for everything at CCV

or

$350 for everything from Provape

Which one is really the better buy? Is the Vmax really that good?

I have all 3, Provari V1&2, and 4 VMAX's.....my Provari's are put away.....yes it is that good.

Would someone tell me how many clicks of the button to get the batt voltage readout?

Vmax user settings:

UU- Power up 3 clicks
UD- Power down 4 clicks
SO- Power on/off 5 clicks
UC- Battery Check 6 clicks
DS - display information setting 7 clicks
*do- atomizer output voltage
*du- battery output voltage
*dR - atomizer ohm
LO- LED on/off 8 clicks

Power Adjust Up:

1. Press the button 3 times in a row until "UU" is shown on the display.
2. When UU is shown on the display, leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The display will change to show the last voltage selected.
3. Once the voltage is displayed, each time you press the button the voltage will advance to the next higher setting: 3.1,3.2,3.3 etc. When you reach 6.0, it will rotate back to 3.0 and go up again.
4. When you have reached the desired setting, leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The setting will be saved and VV will resume normal operation.

Power Adjust Down:

1. Press the button 4 times in a row until "UD" is shown on the display .
2. When UD is shown on the display , leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The display will change to show the last voltage selected.
4. Once the voltage is displayed, each time you press the button the voltage will advance to the next lower setting: 5.9,5.8,5.7 etc. When you reach 3.0, it will rotate back to 6.0 and go up again.
4. when you have reached the desired setting, leave the button idle for 2 second. The setting will be saved and VV will resume normal operation.

Power On/Off:

Battery Check:

1. Press the button 6 times in a row until UC is shown on the display.
2. When UC is shown on the display, leave the button idle for 2 seconds, the digital display will show your battery voltage measurement.
3. The battery voltage will be displayed for 2 seconds, then the display will turn off.

Display Information Setting During Vaping:

1. Press the button 7 times in a row until DS is shown on the display,
2. When DS is shown on the display, leave the button for 2 seconds, the display will show the current setting: DO, DU or DR.

Even sweeter,I got my replacement this morning \o/

That was fast. I'll bet you got the original turbo model again :)
Good to be home again, innit?

I also recently picked up the iTaste which is pretty cool. However, when vaping it I'm thinking 'neat little toy' whereas with the vmax 'Ahhh, the real McCoy.'

All this talk of the SS version is making me think I need one! I have a black V2 right now and love it. Was saving to get a bottom feeder to try out, now Im thinking SS VMAX....

Correct thinking like this will be rewarded :D

I have a v1 black and currently waiting on an SS to arrive. Beauty and the Beast.
Will also be getting the gun metal when available. The Howitzer.

My guess is Howitzer. Only you can't name it that, it's mine :)
Suggestion for your gun metal one: Uzi

Considering it's VapnJ saying it, my guess is a version3...

Either that or an "experimental" finish they haven't announced yet...
