This will be the exact same thing as the LT. If the price is right it will sell like hot cakes.

As for QC, look at the LT. Crooked connectors, buttons with "paint" that came off. But hey guess what, at $100 they still sold like mad, and they still do! Why? Because for $100 I can get a PV that goes from 3v to 6v.

I bought the same unit from another vendor for 30 bucks less. I like it well enuff, I use it sometimes. A name costs money, I ride a Harley, yeah, that cost me another two grand to get down the road.
It's whatever gets you a throat hit, that;s ground zero.
the rest is just the ride.
I always think, why do i vape?
OK , Im not paying 7 bucks for 20 cigarettes.

Could they look anymore like a Provari? Sheesh

My first thought -- they're really pushing the likeness there. But such is the way it is in China, isn't it? Hey, anyon want an iPhnoe?

Seriously though, as far as the price goes, you can't really directly translate the cost. You have to factor in the economy and cost of living there. It'll probably end up being around $100 or so by the time it arrives here.

google translate:

"The VMax is also an ohm measurement on board and a step-down
Controller which controls the two 18350 batteries in the power down.
Thus guarantees you the VariVolt Smoktech of a long battery life.
Safety standards such as 5-Vent Holes in the battery end cap and a 10 sec
Safety shut-off make the VMax very safe."

So it's just a step down stacked battery mod. The price on the german site does not include the batteries.
Dose not look like a fair deal...so far.

Just because it doesn't say provari or Darwin, doesn't mean it is a cheap quality item.
Provari is like the apple of electronics
High priced and beginner friendly.
I wouldn't mind trying this thing out I do like carbon looks

After buying and truly enjoying my Buzz Pro I find myself questioning statements like this.

These are the most expensive high end PV's which happen to have LCD's. Does that in some way make them better than the VV NotCigs units? Why are the NotCigs VV mods (the guys who created VV) always left out of the discussion?

I almost bought a provari and I likely will at some point........ I just don't understand why so many discount the BuzzPro.

Is there something I'm missing?

Everyone knows that the Buzz Pro is the Mid level income earners Provari :p

$145 is way too much! That's only $15 cheaper than a satin silver Provari V2. For them to fly off the shelf - a $99 price point seems correct.

Again, you can't go by the pricing in foreign markets. There are numerous factors involved which pretty much guarantee the pricing won't match what it will cost here. I'm still hearing in the $100 range, but don't know if that's kit price or standalone.

When I commented to her that I preferred the old case design to the new she told me:

Elaine Smoktech - Thanks for your comment.
The previous designs are also available as long as there is people like to buy it. According to the feedbacks from customers, most of them prefers this design.
Comparing with Provari and considering the good functions of our VMax, our sale price is very attractive.
