I took a break, and I am feeling alot better lol. I meant the initial joke you made was probably passive aggressive, but it didn't make me mad. It was the fact that you thought it got to me, and told me to lighten up (which alot of people have done in this thread; were rude, I explain myself, then they tell me to calm down (even though I'm chill in my tone) and that consequently leads to frustration on my part) is what's frustrating, not angering. Basically the fact that I have to tell you that it didn't get to me.
-But it was funny
, I even saved it to give to the next person I feel like grammar nazi'ing. That's a gem right there lololol.I just got the Sigelie 20w today. It doesn't have a locking feature like the Seven22 but it works amazingly. I've never even used a provari, but I'm completely put off by even the mention because (no offense to anyone) most of the owners are just so.... Not humble, I'll put it that way. "BOW DOWN BEFORE MY MIGHTY PROVARI"
Bleh...
The Sigelie and the Seven22 are damn good devices, and decently priced as such.
Provari? Pro-whatever.
(not hating, just my perspective as a neutral)
Hell, even Vamos have good hype and I put my RDA on one and could not tell a difference between any other mod at the same voltage/wattage.
That being said I'd imagine the provari is a similar circumstance in my eyes.
As long as it vapes well, who gives a damn who made it?

after many failed rechargeable batteries I bought my provari to be a part of the cult.
i decided that in my non vaping community i wanted to be an elitist.
I also apparently am very accident prone so i wanted a reliable device.
i also wanted to use my provari as a self defense weapon.
i would like every one to bow down to my provari...
i'm so tired of the provari people are above this and provari people think this.
apparently provari haters don't frequent the provari threads. I have found the most helpful group of people ever. it doesn't even matter if i need help with another device. they don't give 2 shakes of a rats tail. I've gotten great advice, awesome support. No one there has called me names for owning or not owning a device. I have not been mistreated. I have even asked questions about mech mods and reo's and the billet box. there is also some mvp2 love there as well. So i think before people call me names for owning a provari, they should get to know me first. that to me is like saying all women are weak, or all black people use dogs for fighting, or white men with tatoos are rapists. It doesn't make since to me this isn't the 1960's yall. If you read the threads, Provari owners are defending themselves for being called names or being put down for something they own or like. If you own a mercedes are you a drug dealer? if you drive a toyota are you poor... must be redneck if you own a ford? i don't get it.
if you don't own a provari, cool. but don't generalize me in your negative posts about provari owners, becaue i am a provari owner... and you don't know me. i love my device. and outside of this forum, i don't even know any vapers. I am amazed at the ignorance on this forum sometimes. I think that some of these people were bullies in high school and make themselves feel better for putting down other people. Most of the provari owners are really nice people. Check yourself and your attitudes towards other people on this forum. I am proud to own a provari because i made a good decision for me, and if you are proud of your vamo, or whatever great awesome brag about it if you want. but there is no need to bash me or my ecf friends for standing up to being bullied.
this is not directed towards any one. it is a generalized statement. It's like racism to me and i don't stand for it in the real world. And i don't think it's right here. Grow up and set an example, practice what you teach or should be teaching your children.
have a good day.. and whatever your vape is i hope you're proud of yours too. if you aren't find something else.

Can't like this enough.
Look... I get it. Say something negative about the ProVari and watch all the ProVari folks come out of the woodwork. Maybe because it is so fun to yank our chain.
Well, I'm not taking the bait anymore.
Peace out...
This.It's not a normal day on ECF without a Provari thread. Always causes an attraction and some debate. They're fun and often entertaining. Just don't take them personally or too seriously.
And bring some popcorn for everyone.
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that every time a Provari owner posts uninvited Pro-Provari propaganda in a non Provari thread a Fairy dies. If they manage to attract other Provari propagandists (they often travel in packs) & derail the thread, then the Fairy's extended family may die to.
When at their most virulent they have taken out whole villages. If there was any justice in this world they would be forced to stay in the Provari forum for the rest of their natural lives. You know, among their own kind.

Treehead while I do own provaris, they are not the only devices I use. I own mvp2s, a ZNA, and a raijin mech mod. I use all of them and I really like my zna and mech, but at the end of the day I have a provari with me always for a variety of reasons.
1. With a kayfun the provari is perfect. At work and out and about its hard to beat the performance you can get out of a properly set up kayfun. Granted the Kayfun works great up to 17.5 watts on my zna but its a battery hog and I have no problems pushing my provari to 15.6 watts on a 1.8 ohm microcoil at 5.3 volts and I dont have to change batteries in a 12 hour shift.
2. My provari gives me peace of mind at work. I work in a machine shop, so any device I bring has the potential of falling on the cement floor and they do because I've been vaping for 2 1/2 years. I've broken ego twists, lavatubes, and vamos at work on the cement, finally bought a provari last march and it has gone to work with me everyday for over a year now and despite multiple collisions with cement still vapes as well as it did the first day I got it.
So if I'm a provari fanboy, that's ok with me. My personal experience tells ME that its the most reliable device I have owned and to me that's all that counts.

Is what an accomplishment?
So you have an opinion.
Mine happens to differ.
And there are many things that are better than watching TV. What is your point?
Congratulations! Hooray! You bought a Stingray!
And then you went and made a thread about the Provari. Makes perfect sense.
It's a little bit more "somphitsacated" than that. Saying something negative about the Provari is just the first step. It gets the attention of Provari owners, who engage in the thread hoping that it will not become the usual personal attacks.
Step two is what is important here: Start implying all sorts of negative things about the Provari owners, using as broad a brush as possible.
Because that's just so ....ing funny. Especially the fifteenth time, right?
Like so many other threads about Provari owners, dressed up as threads about Provaris, the OP has been trolling since post #1, and even though he will never admit it, he knows it. So does everyone who has read through his posts (except the moderators, apparently). Sorry to be blunt about it, but there you have it.

I already knew it was funny. It wasn't my concept, I just borrowed it, and applied it to your phrase, "alot of money". The second picture I posted was mine, so I suppose I will take partial credit for the adaptation. I linked the original creator, and the insightful and humorous blog she wrote.
It didn't get to you, eh? Well, if that's your story, you stick with it.
See you around, treehead.
Edited for unnecessary commentary.

I have not owned, nor do I currently own, a Provari (yet).
Yes, I get up off the couch (or out of my parent's basement) and actually have a life (spouse, kids, career, mortgage, responsibilities, etc) that take precedence over babying a device. I don't run the Tough Mudder with it (although I do run the Tough Mudder) or deliberately run torture tests on my devices. Its just normal wear and tear like threading and un-threading tanks on and off. You will see soon enough how reliable the Vamo is.
I wanted an SVD at first. I also felt that I could achieve the same end result with it as a Provari for a lot less money. Then I began my research. In the end I chose a Provari because I'm cheap and only wanted to purchase a device once. Same with my Russian 91. I chose to buy the authentic because I didn't want to go through trying to find an acceptable clone. My luck wouldn't have actually allowed me to be one the people to get a great clone the first time (my first authentic Russian had a bent chimney out of the box and wouldn't seal, lol).
I wanted something smaller than my full size Provari for out and about. I looked at some small mechs and several vv/vw devices and ended up buying a Provari Mini. I couldn't find anything else that compared in terms of quality, IN MY OPINION. Frankly that kinda bummed me out a little. I not only wanted something smaller that gave me a great vape, but I wanted something "new and different" to play with, and I only got something smaller ( and a great vape).
Is the feature set and styling of the Provari a little dated? Yes. ( I choose to call it timeless, rather than dated)
Do we actually NEED a different feature set or display or menu system? I don't think so.
I've stuck with Provari because it is consistent, reliable, and durable. The 95% percent efficiency is pretty nice too, lol. The customer service and warranty are beyond reproach. I dropped my full size while mowing the lawn without knowing it, and then ran it over with the mower. It put a huge dent in the side, broke the display window, and destroyed the topper. BUT, it still worked, lol. I sent it in and Provape replaced the body for less than a replacement carto tank.
Most of all I love my Provari because it keeps me off analogs, and that's all we can really ask of our devices. The great vape experience they give us is on top of that is just a bonus.
Whatever keeps you off analogs and gives you the vape experience you want, is the best device in the world!
Good luck to you and may all your devices last forever. ( like my Provari's. Just kidding .Had to do it. It was a moral imperative! )

You will see this on any forum.. People invest in something expensive but not top of line, and those who bought cheap will argue that their product is just as good, while those who bought high end will bash the lower end product. Point is, they all work, and Some work better than others. Everyone wants to justify their purchase. I have a vamo, and I love it. I've never tried a provari, but I'm sure it is a better vape. Enjoy what you have and then get something better when you can

Really? Link us to a post by someone using their Provari as a status symbol. I don't hang around on this forum very much (except for one subforum), but I never see anyone doing that.
What I do see (when I get out of the subforum I hang out in) is people bashing the Provari for one reason or another, and then the Provari owners come to the defense.
Since I got so many warnings about my vamo breaking, I decided to immediately pre-order the Futura dna30 mod, which definitely won't break on me. Everyone made alot of good points about their provari's and I started to miss a regulated that won't fail me. My vamo is still going strong, but I hadn't realized until someone posted it that it's two pieces press-fitted together with no binder, so that may give one day with my big .... accidentally sitting on it or something.
~But I thought all the appreciators of high-quality regulateds would enjoy this. However it's a little more expenisve at $229 (10 more if you want a firearm-coating color), but totally worth it!~
Again it's the Futura tubular DNA30 mod, it's capable of 30 watts, 8.3 volts, or 10amps. And this thing won't break unless you throw it off the grand canyon literally, it's made of 7075 ballistics grade aluminum (same the military uses), coated in Cerakote ceramic firearm coating, and the stainless steel top and bottom pieces are 316L surgical/marine grade stainless steel.
Adjustable positive atomizer contact
Flush-to-tube body rocker-style power adjuster
Native 510 and Ego atomizer connectors
Deep drip well
Soft touch actuator buttons
Deeply recessed display screen for added protection
Reverse battery protection
Modular construction to allow any 18X battery size
Flush to body rocker-style power adjuster
Extremely robust construction
Cerakote Firearm Ceramic Coating in a variety of colors
and patterns - customers can choose from dozens of possiblities, including glossy and metallic!
Mil-spec Teflon insulated silver plated copper wire
Stainless steel top and bottom caps
Beryllium copper battery spring
Flat or contoured bottom caps
And it's a RDA builders dream as well, capable of going down to .5ohms, which is what most humans use most of the time. I CAN'T WAIT! Until this thing is on my doorstep, you gotta pre-order so do it fast if you want one, I somehow nabbed one and coughed up the 239 for a savage stainless cerakote coating in case I'm ever in combat . And like what I liked about the provari it does come with a warrantee if I do drop it off a cliff, they will fix it and send it back for free. However if you run it over with a tank and flatten it they'll let you buy it for what they pay for it (no profit).
-Just thought I'd mention! My vamo is still doing ok, granted under rare usage, but I'm not trusting it after nearly everyone in this thread said they owned a few and they broke.

It's so you can use whatever your heart desires, if for some weird reason I want to vape a .05 octo coil setup, I can. I use vtc5 30amp 2600mAh's, and they don't have any lag, at least on 3ohms and lower, which is what I like for sure. I actually prefer to be between .5-1ohm's on the dot, and with one vtc5 it lights up like a light-bulb trust me. It's nice to get a flavorful, dense cloud off of 1 second pulls. It's like 15 pulls from my carto-tanks, in 1-2 seconds no kidding. If you've used a mechanical you'd know why we like'em, I'd try one out you'll be surprised I bet.
-I only have 2 copper mechanicals so it may be different for me but I doubt it, but the voltage drop is unnoticable until that last minute it's trying. My mechanical battery life goes like this: Amazing 1 second pulls that are almost too much to handle for the first hour, for the next 4 hours it's great streamline 1-2 second pulls, the next 2 hours I'm taking slightly longer 3-5 second pulls and still getting the same vapor, and finally the last hour is when I get the hint to start charging it but still completely usable with longer 5 second pulls, I set up my coils to run at their 3.9v setting where it spends it's life all day. Sometimes that drop is a welcome change when your getting intense "take-your-finger-off-now" type pulls if you know what I mean. It's more like a carto-tank on steroids at that point, a nice long draw that you can measure the exact amount of vapor you want. To be honest, most of the time I happily vape while distracted and all of the sudden it poops out on me, I don't see it coming, it's sucking vapor and then, air.

That part about mechs is pretty well spot on. My ohms range is 0.6-0.8, but that is an individual taste thing.
I only use RDAs for sub-ohm, and only dual-coil configurations. But there is something really nice about a 25 watt vape, when it's done right.
