What'd you like to SEE in your Provari in 2014?

[stryfox]

I have a mini 2.5
I just found a used mini 2 because I like the simpler look without the provari mini cut into it.
interchangeable top cap/ air controller with floating or adjustable pin would be cool.
I understand they need to keep it simple but they could make upgrades for more advanced users that know exactly what they want. WE are the ones willing to spend big money on little differences.
I also say just make the mini as a standard model and make bottom caps for 18490 and 18650. There will still only be one seam.
Offer different types of engraving for us loony owners...

US flag edition.

I really like the "tear drop" design myself, not much on the "crop circles" myself. But as another poster mentioned, it would be awesome to have a Purple LED Display and Button.

I don't sit here wishing my Provari Mini was anything eles than it is, but, if I HAD to make some recomendations......

I would like 2 very shallow air channels in the top cap. Very shallow. Maybe just 1 channel. That is all it would take to avoid air flow issues with solid bottom plates on Carto tanks and many clearomizers.

I love the top cap at just about 19mm. I think it makes the Provari look very different from all the other mods, a straight 22mm cap would just ruin it's good looks IMnsHO. So NO, don't do that PLEASE. There are plenty of aftermarket rings out there. let those folks keep their products. It's a win/win.

Maybe find a way to move the LED flush with the window, so it is not recessed so much.

VW??? Not craving this, but I think it is inevitable, and it would make many of the nay sayers shut up some!

Not a fan of the Crop Circles, so maybe an update for the Standard Provari, or just go with the Tear Drops on both the Standard and the Mini. I personally like that the word Mini is engraved into the Mini.

Other colors and finishes? Sure, why not?

The ability to buy a Provari, get shipped the body only, paint or customize as one wished (within limits) and ship back to Provari for final assembly, with full warranty (except for the finish) would be AWESOME.

And of course.... WiFi

I like the engraved logo, as well. The word Mini doesn't bother me. Engraving options would be cool. We already spend quite a bit on customization as it is.

I have a huge collection of aftermarket rings and such that flat tops and all that are not needed. I can get the look I want with what I already have.

Adding to my wishlist for V3:
- VW
- Shorter (I think the ZNA is going the right direction)
- Type III HA, Type II for colors
- IP67 or at least IPX-8 Waterproofing
- Clicky button
- Integrated AFC in top cap
- Display closer to the window so it's viewable at angles
- Purple LED for Ocelot
- BT connectivity so I can set settings, view battery voltage and atomizer impedance, and log usage from IOS, Android or WP8

 

[chadsmo]

Exact same design and chip with a 5 amp limit and I'm happy. Maybe a straight top with air channels option as well. That's it. Oh, and a brushed stainless steel tube. Now I'm done.

That there is just fancy-talk for a puff-counter! NO!!
LOL

- Clicky button

What IS it with clicky buttons??? Why does this get brought up so often? I happen to like the fact that I can stealth without sounding like I'm playing with a ball point pen in the movie theater!

Me too!! I think one of my favorite parts of the Provari is the FEEL of that button. Reminds me of the old and beloved, but long gone, feel of the IBM keyboard... I LOVE that button! If they changed it, I wouldn't buy another Provari again.

Me three Yep, I'm fine with the button as it is... has that tactile feel, the pressure quotient is just right, smooth to operate and performs with every press√ Oh, and everything on the mute.

 

[AngiBe]

Dark purple metallic. That's it.

+1

Or metallic anything except Easter egg colors

Provari ... I'd like to see an LCD 2-line display, Variable Wattage, and a switch that doesn't put me into menu mode so often while I'm vaping. My Segelei Zmax V3 does the switch noise menu activation thing, too. A simple R-C network on the switch would stop that by absorbing and leveling the pulse noise. They should know that. It's how ANY logic push button circuit on your standard electronic momentary push button device works these days.

We wouldn't put up with it in our cars, phones, or stereo equipment. It shouldn't be a problem on our ecig mods. I love my Provari, but I expect quality for the price I paid.

Dave... you have to push the button 5x to get the first menu... why are you pulsing your vape in the first place?? (not being insulting, I am really curious if there's a reason for doing this)

It's a bad habit that ex-Vamo users have to learn to break (because the ProVari won't burn your juice if you don't do it).

 

[jwj63]

Things that I think could/should actually be done:

1) Flat top with AFC
2) Floating positive pin
3) Gorilla glass LED window
4) A fire button more in line with a high end device. Anything other than the cheap plastic one.

Things I think ProVape will never do because it would take away from the strong brand identity:

1) "Lux" model. No teardrops, no crop circles, no lines. Brushed or polished SS with "Provari" and serial number discretely engraved.

Thing I don't want to see:

1) VW or any type of complex electronic control. Keep it simple, keep it reliable.
2) Any type of display changes that adds flashy features.

 

[The Ocelot]

I wouldn't mind seeing that on the mod itself. Who puts serial numbers on removable caps?

Edit: I wouldn't mind seeing color changing LED's. and I would really like to see them make an ambigram logo ProVari

I worked very hard cleaning up the ProVarinati ripped off image. All those little "do not copy" marks were a pain to get rid of.

^I actually didn't get that. How does the menu come up if we don't want it to?

Edit: Ok, read Planofman's response later. Hmm, the Vamo needs pulse firing, eh?

Come sit with me on the confused couch. I have a Vamo and a Sigelei and I don't know what either of them is talking about.
