I'm not sure which way to go twist or provari. Been vaping a week now on an ego c with vivi nova minis. Thinking about making the jump to Vv. Looking for the best bang for the buck and long haul. Any help would be appreciated. Altsmoke has 15% off till tonight and Provapes has 5% off provari's for today only.

Forgot about the Lava Tube. That would be a very nice mid-range upgrade. Haven't tried it myself as I am saving up for the ProVari. The Twist offers a relatively cheap VV experience. It allows you to determine if you even want/need VV. I know some people are happy using a 3.7V setup with the right ohm rated juice delivery system.

Been vaping for a week. Started with a mall starter kit. Then bought a LT clone to have a VV device to start dripping and trying other different things. It's not bad, but keep in mind if you watch / read reviews they aren't very accurate, and suffer from voltage drop under load as well. I just bought a provari mini while they were on sale. I know there are other options out there, and I may explore some of them later. But for now, I just wanted a VV setup that was well built, noob proof with all the failsafes, and a great warranty. Contributing to our own economy helps too. I'm excited to get it!

I've started on the ego-t then upgraded to the provari. It's pricey, yes, but well worth it. I've been using the provari as my all day device for 3 weeks now and I kinda miss the portability of the ego. I've tried to use my ego-t again but the vape that I'm accustomed to with the the provari just isn't there. Feels like I'm just wasting juice with the ego-t. Well, I just couldn't pass up on Altsmoke's labor day deal so I've purchased 2 650 ego twists. Get both if u can! The provari build quality and vape consistency will last a good long time but Altsmoke has a great deal. Hard decision I know.

Ooops! Too late now! Oh well, if the mini is as reliable as the V2 you should be good to go. Be very careful, if yer not completely satisfied they hold their value well if not scratched up. Heed you well the error codes supplied in the manual. Did you go the extension cap as well? If not get extra batteries (AW) and a good charger (Pila) so yer not tied up carging when you should be vapin'. Good luck on yer purchase.

I'm glad you posted this question, I've been wondering too. The Twist is more in my price range, but I've read of so many problems with it not charging correctly, and a few where it would shut off (or wouldn't shut off), that I'm nervous. Is it just that those issues seem to be posted more often or is it a common problem?

I've never had any trouble with my 1000mah Ego Twist, but if you can afford a Provari, I say go for the Provari. The Twist can occasionally be found for around $25 on sale here and there. It's a great backup device and easy to slip in your shirt pocket. Just don't forget your chargers, batteries, etc. :D

I have 2 twists and just got my Provari. As the Provari is expensive and quite heavy, it will stay at home where it is safe. The Twist is great to carry around, take to work, etc. get both. You won't be sorry.

Ditto...
Perfect combo, Provari at home loaded with a tank, Put a lanyard on the twist and throw it around your neck as you walk out the door.
