why provari rated so high?? Quality? Service?..i m pretty noob... Thanks for replies
Provape has excellent customer service. Their products are very well made, and built to last. While I would discourage any intentional abuse, they have a reputation for surviving accidents (e.g., Drops). Though they are variable voltage only, the voltage is spot on. Many others mods (APV's) are not. Provape also has in the past upgraded the amp limit, and for $20 a Provari owner could upgrade his/her device (i.e., Didn't have to buy a new device, Just get an upgrade).
However, they are expensive to many, although I have heard some say that purchasing a Provari has saved them money (Not having to buy anything else). I can't say they have saved me any money. As much as I would like to be the type of guy that could just buy a Provari and be done, I like other things as well. In the little over a year I've been vaping, I have several mods, including a Provari Mini. I'll probably always be the kind that buys the newest thing (After good reviews of course).
When I started, variable voltage or variable wattage cost $200+. Now, you can buy it less than $50. I still use my Provari daily. However, I like to play. That said, I've heard good things about the Evic. Especially since the 1.2 firmware update. Joyetech generally makes good products. Will it last as long as a Provari, I doubt it. Does it (the Evic) have newer technology ? Yes. And the ability to download new firmware for free is a plus. However, I wonder will they continue to provide firmware updates once sales slow down and they need a new device to market (Only time will tell). In regards to wattage (Power), when you alter the voltage or the resistance of your atomizer/cartomizer/clearomizer, you are effectively altering the wattage (I own both Variable wattage and variable voltage devices). In my opinion, there's a learning curve with both, and once you find your sweet spot, they taste the same. Some just have cooler ways to get to the destination, and some are prettier or smaller or shinier.
Advise: Buy what you want and can afford. If there is a general consensus that says they are bad or problematic, it's probably true. In regards to what the best is, that's heavily opinionated. Ask yourself the question: do I have to have the latest thing, or do I just want to buy one and be done with it. That may help you decide what to buy. Good luck.
