I got the full size Dragon, but I want the mini also, I have the mini gold, but want the full size also, and now I want both the gun metal also, so many Provari's, so little money. Then there is the P3, I don't know if I want those or not, so little info on them.

KAS

I am content with the two I have. At this point, I have three sized batteries and the capability to use all three. I thought about branching out to other things but can't really find anything outside of the Vapor Shark that I am even remotely interested in.

Yes, I agree and only as mini. That may be why they no longer offer the bronze metallic color in the mini. :(

I like the look of the Dragon also but I've been hearing some vendors have been price gouging that one. That's why I prefer buying directly from provape.

Live well, Love hard, Laugh often & Vape on!

Isn't it odd that they aren't offering mini's in specific colors? It's a shame that vendors are over-charging because they are ruining the chance others will get one

Me too, especially since a provape rep has recently confirmed that it's going to be an additional device and not a replacement for the v2.5.

I really feel like the P3 may be a box mod, which would count me out........or features that I just don't care about. I have been punished before for being an early adopter.

GUN METAL?!?!

I'm late to the convo, but is it available and is it the new PV3????

Nope

It's still small though, which is a plus for me. It only holds 2.5ml of juice.

I think it doesn't meet her 19mm requirements for sure.

Posted 6/1:

Ahhhh, now that's an idea! I'd like to see a 'blued' or gunmetal finish!!!

Yes, it's on the website - "available 6/18 at noon".
No, it's a color not a different model.

17 days turnaround!!! Not bad...now I just gotta figure out how I'm gonna justify a third PV to the soon-to-be missus. Third Provari that is :D

Here is my idea:

YOU: "Honey, can we have a tree way?"

HER:"Are you out of your f*^^ing mind? NO!"

YOU: "Okay, can I have a third Provari?"

I just buy it and then argue later. Better to argue and have it then argue and not have it. With the Dragon arrival, I got two other vape mails that day so she saw it all at once. Normally, she makes a comment about "how she is mad" even though she isn't and lets it go. That day, we did have a heated conversation about it but I told her that by comparison, just having 2 was kiddie stuff and that I really wasn't spending that much money compared to cigarettes. She wasn't buying that and she shouldn't because it really isn't true.

She let it go though; she always does.

The one thing that I am apparently not going to get away with is buying another new car before her.

Anyone seen H2o?

Maybe her box shot got her banned :(

The last time I saw her, she was headed for the gutter.

It is odd indeed! I was truly upset when the bronze metallic mini disappeared. But I won't mention it anymore because I feel like I'm beating a dead horse. My post count has jumped up and I've become a super member as a result! :)

The box mod form factor will count me out too. It reminds me too much of a pack of cigarettes in my hand so that's a definite no no....

I just went to provape to check the clearance page for mini dragons, and nothing of course, so I looked at the mini's out, and look at what I see.

ProVari Mini Gold Variable Voltage Electronic Cigarette

KAS

I don't know why that link says gold but this is a gun metal zenkote!

Wow! That would make the next Zenkote a blue (unless Zen has come up with more colors). I like Zen's blue, but at the price I would wait and see what other colors ProVape might make with the same type of finish as the emerald green. A burgundy/purple/black cherry type of color with a gloss like the green would make me poor.

ETA: I think that might be a scratch, since I found out both of the Zenkote blues have been discontinued. Still...

If Provape came out with a box mod, for me it would depend on what it looked like, if it was a stabilized wood box, I would be all over it, if it was just another metal box, not so much. I think I remember that, that bsardo guy (whats his name?) said it felt like he was holding a Provari, so I think it will be a tube.

Do you think they would do a Zenkote Dragon? now that would be awesome!

Dammit, I can't afford it right now.....Must resist......Yes, I know resistance is futile, but my husband will kill me if I buy one.....

ETA: However, if that one is still there in a month, or if the P3 is out by then, I got me a birthday present. Hubs always just buys me mods and let's me pick what I want. Ok, I am happy again.

I'm hoping maybe a 35th anniversary present in September!! We usually go to Jamaica but have been talking about skipping a year. This would be way cheaper!!!

It's like they read our thoughts!

No they didn't. There have been posts about wanting a gun metal color ever since I can remember. Now if they come out with a Black Cherry, then I will truly believe the ProVarinati has influence.

Please ProVape! Pretty, pretty please with sugar on top!

Ahh, no I don't think so.
It was more like a replacement for finding a "common denominator" when dealing with a fraction.
Instead, they follow a rote process of multiplying out - depending on what you're doing with the fractions (adding or dividing or whatever) - they "cross multiply".

Just an example:
Say you need to add 2/3 + 1/2.
I would find a "common denominator" so the two fractions can be worked together:
2/3 = 4/6 and 1/2=3/6. Now you can add them. Or subtract them. And you're getting a feel for how the compare, etc.
4/6 + 3/6 = 7/6 and you can then reduce that to 1 1/6.


They were taught instead, to "cross multiply".
You multiply the 2x2 and the 1x3 (why? Because the teacher says so).
View attachment 345086

So literally, they were being taught to move numbers around in a particular way ("cross multiply") to solve a particular type of problem (adding fractions with different denominators) INSTEAD of being taught to really understand the concept of it, which would let them THINK about fractional amounts and enable them to work with them, even with different challenges (like dividing them, or converting them to decimal, etc).

You get the answer, but you don't learn anything that'll last. Super.

A teacher could USE this method - if they were explaining WHY it works. But that's not in the curriculum as far as I could tell.
Or maybe it is, but our teachers skipped that part.

Or, just use one of these :D

I'm wondering what the chances are on getting the Rose Gold Zenkokte? That's the color I really want. And metallic purple, of course.

Zenkote is talked about by Zen in pbrusardo's videos with Zen. I think it's part 2. It's supposed to be stronger than cerakote. Someone put up the House of Hybrid colors before. The blue one had issues so it was discontinued.

I'm with kas, too many ProVarii, too little money. I haven't bought any vape stuff in a month (got glasses and dental work instead), and all I get to buy for the next month is a Kayfun Mini. But the thing is, I really don't need anything, I just want stuff.

I just saw that both of the blues Zen used to have are discontinued. Okay, scratch my last post, I thought there was still one in use.
