What is the best VV mod out there?

[mwa102464]

So many people are use to tube mods and they go with the Provari, I did, then I finally said I want to try the Darwin and so glad I did, it took me a while to buy because of the shape but all I can say is it is awesome, just got a 2nd, also have 2 Black Chrome Provari's. Both are good units Sandman, again nothing makes Atty/Cartos jump like the Darwin though

@mwa102464

Sooner or later I am gonna want to try both. Like I said in an earlier post though, this research is for the future. I have a 900mAh vv battery on the way, and I have a feeling that sooner or later I might want to drop some real cash on one of the best vv mods out there. Whether it be darwin or provari(or even a different mod), I can't say just yet.

 

[mwa102464]

Well sandman you get what ya pay for is all I can say, I've got my share of them all and the nicer and better ones always seem to cost more, but they also work very well, and why i have a few of them

I have a ProVari, so I'm a bit biased towards that. However, the variable wattage feature, and the battery technology are awesome on the Darwin. The 1600 mah battery should last any vaper all day. Its a bit less flexible as far as tanks go due to the swiveling connector. I have a preference for tube mods, and like the interchangeable batteries on my ProVari...

Actually I believe it is an 1800 mAh battery. They typical time on charge for heavy - lighter vapers is 21 - 35 hours.

One limitation on the Provari is you cannot use 1.5 ohm dual coil cartomizers with it.

I've been using an ipro for a few months now and I gotta tell you it works flawlessly.

The version 2 Provari started shipping last week and you can use the 1.5 dual coils on it with no problems. So thats no longer an issue with buying a Provari.

I absolutely love my Buzz Pro but it is not the end point on VV for me but just the starting point of a quality VV collection. I want to add a Provari V2, Darwin and a VVPV as well as a couple of one off units. I have both the Lava Tube and Madvapes VV box mod these are both good devices for the price but do not belong in the company of the rest.

I have to say there isn't quite anything like dialing in these Watts to control your Atty/Carto. I can actually adjust my flavor while I'm taking a vape and dialing it in with my 2 Darwins is really something. I usually run the Gotvapes Vision Mini 2.5ml filler-less cartos on my Darwins because the flavor is just super on these but anything you use its just amazing dialing in the best flavor vapor combo so easily. It took me forever to buy my 1st Darwin also because I had that fear factor of it not being a tube, but let me tell ya'll something, it fits in my back pocket perfect and is the most pocket friendly mod there is, and its off when in my pocket and the newer Darwins have positive stop locations when you move the arm, super nice set up, plus it not only tells you the Watts/Amps/Volts/Ohms but it consistently monitors the ohms of your Atty/Carto no other Mod on the market that I know of does this, and its why those electronics make these Atty's/Carto jump like it does. Telling you guys you wont be sorry one bit buying a Darwin.

On the flip side like I said before the provari and all the others are great mods too, and I am partial to my Darwin and new VV Reo Woodvil, but I use them all on a daily basis. Another super thing about Darwin is there is No batteries to deal with, no charger to deal with which are added bonuses in my book, and a full charge will net most vapors close to if not 2 full days of vaping. The best thing of all is there ALL sitting here in front of me

Provape also has top notch customer service.

So it caught up with the Darwin in that area. Well, that's good to know.

I really can't see how getting 21 - 35 hours on a charge could make anyone nervious about the battery in the Darwin. And since it also doubles as a pass-thourgh (which really isn't needed because of how long it holds a charge), you seem to be making something out of nothing.

I've heard that Provapes CS is very good. When I had a minor problem with my first Darwin, Evolve actually overnighted me a new one the day I contacted them before I could even get mine in the mail back to them. I don't know too many companies that do that.

 

[dragonbone]

Like several other people who have answered the original poster, I too have a Provari but prefer my el-cheap-o MadVapes VV Box Mod lol. So 'best' is very subjective in the end.

I believe what concerns some people is should there be a battery failure, you're not able to just pop a new battery in the device. Or if you happen to mis-time things, you could reach the end of the battery life and be (for example) on your way out the door to work with a dead device. With common-battery mods, you can keep several batteries always at the ready.

Also, if the internal battery in the Darwin fails, you have to send in the whole unit.

Those are the concerns I've read about it.

I own a ProVari V1 so I just use it with 2.5 ohm or higher Atty or DCT so no problem. But it's weight is a negative for me. My hand falls asleep if I hold it for long periods of time and it's not pocket friendly. In the near future I'm planning on buying a Darwin when it becomes available and a Kick to put in my Reo Grand if it's compatible with it.
I still like my ProVari a lot but I think I'm going to like the Darwin even better when I finally get my hands on one, since it's a Variable Wattage device and more pocket friendly. Time will tell.

There must be some real Nervious Nellies hanging around then, lol. I charge mine when I get in bed at night (as everyone I know does) and never have a battery concern. Some actually only charge it every other night. And as I mentioned, since it doubles as a pass-through/charger, I don't see how someone should be concerned about being without power. And there have been no battery failures to date from what I have read.

And it's no different that any other model that might have a problem that requires you to send it back as I read some did with both the Provari and Darwin. That's why everyone with any sense has a backup. And as I mentioned, when under warranty, Evolve overnighted me a knew one before I could get mine in the mail. Tell me another company that does that???

 

[denali_41]

Provari or Darwin. Two completely different beasts, but pretty much universally considered to be the best-of-the-best PVs.

thats the top end of the VV chart,at the bottom is 35 dollar VV box mod from madvapes

I must be a Nervious Nellie then, because that is one of the reasons why I am leaning towards the provari. Not so much a concern as it is a convenience issue. I simply want to be able to vape all the time, anytime. Having multiple batteries(without having to buy multiple decives) enables me to experience that.

It's the one thing I hate about all of the ecigs I have used, even the new 900mAh lcd vv battery I ordered(which I am still waiting for) still has that "having to charge the whole unit" issue, so if you have no backup your screwed. At least With that said battery(only 25 bucks) I can afford to order multiple batteries, so I can at least have backups. With the more expensive mods tthough, I simply cannot afford to have 2 darwin lying around. Yes I can use the 900mAh vv battery as a back up if I do end up purchasing the darwin, but I still would like that convenience of being able to smoke my top vv mod at all times. Provari allows that, I can afford the extra 4 batteries that come with it, enabling me to smoke the Provari anytime, al the time.

Thanks for all the comments people, I am still leaning towards the provari, but whne the time comes to purchase an expensive vv mod, I still have a big decision to make.

You should be fine with either one, they are both top of the line. But since you have to sleep sometimes, I just wouldn't worry about being without battery life with the Darwin. The only catch is if you use dual coil cartomizers with it which I use. That has cut the battery charge life to about 16 hours (and I'm a heavy vaper) for me but then if I am still vaping, I just plug it in and continue to vape.
