Green led's on the following: Bronze Metallic Standard, Emerald Green Metallic Mini and Black Mini

Blue led's on White mini, Polished mini

Red led's on Satin Silver Standard and Gunmetal Zencoat

I like the green with the green ... and lizzie is right it does come out as more of a yellowish green on the led screen, but when you press the button - your finger is definitely green.

My favorite is the blue, but then again it has always been my favorite color.

Gato -- reports have it that the gunmetal has a blue sheen. I chose a blue LED for that reason, but it won't arrive for a day or two. Elantis is pretty correct in her assessment of what green works with to date. To me at least! But I went with the blue/gunmetal based on photos and descriptions of how gunmetal "reads" in most lighting situations

Thanks for the responses so far..

I've never seen a green ProVari LED in person before..


Do you think it would look okay with the gun metal ZenKote?

I thought about green as I ordered the Gunmetal because I pictured the gunmetal a little more gray. Last minute I went with the blue--I am really glad that I did because the Gunmetal definitely has more blue in the color than gray. I am not sure green would be the best choice with the gunmetal. Just my opinion.

I only get blues. Red is blinding, green is too yellow & a little bit brighter than the blue. Honestly the blue is still on the bright side for my photosensitive eyes & the Stealth is the only one that's perfect. If I could have a Stealth lens on the Emerald, White & Gun Metal... I'd have way too many Provaris.

Yeah, gun metal seems to change so much, depending on the lighting & the surrounding environment..


There was one photo of gun metal with green, and I wasn't as wild about it.. But not sure if it was just the photo?


My only apprehension with blue is I already have a black with blue! And I ain't getting rid of my baby! :D


I don't really like red LED, but I'm thinking it might work better than green with the gun metal...

I hate this.. :( :laugh:

LOL--decisions decisions. I agonize over each one too--I have 4 with blue--one with red--and one with green.

I agree with you both...I got the Red on the Gunmetal and the only reason as I only had one Red led Provari and I am into colored tanks and such, so I wanted another that I could pair with the red (I am a little OCD about the matchy part), had that not been the case and after seeing the blues come out in the Gunmetal in certain light I would have definitely went with the blue.

I'm a little OCD about matchy stuff too...you should watch me shop for tips! :)

I've got 2 black ProVariiiiiii. One blue, one green. I kinda like the green better.
But my next one, I may just get red, so I have one of each...

I LOVE the green. It is bright, but I think it's a great color, day or night...

As much as I love the blue, the only issue I have is that it could be a little more visible in strong sunlight..


As for Gun Metal ZenKote? Sorry, get in line, maybe another time.. :(

In fact, you might even fall behind P3...
