Why Provari? This is why.

I have two Provari Minis, and they are the best vaping money I have spent. Reliability, features, sturdiness, excellent customer service, the works.
There is a photo on another thread here "provape user photos" (/forum/provape/309055-provape-user-photos-8.html#post10312769) I was going to ask there but I am too new :(

The unit on the right seems to be an IBTanked tank 22MM but what is noticeable is the "cover" where the Provari meets the tank - it is somewhat seamless and hides the taper of the Mini.

Another thread calls it a "pro ring" Googling that is not very helpful. Can someone help with a little more details?

Thanks in advance.

Haven't read through all the post. Don't feel the need to. I'm enough of a fan that I own 6 of them Yes that's right 6.

That's definitely an area where I think they can improve. When it comes down to it, that thing is ugly and depending on your unit, doesnt match the finish at all. It seems strange to me that they have custom battery caps yet can't come up with a decent ring on top to balance larger tanks / provide better airflow for some tanks. And then there's the whole issue with connectivity and lowering the connection in a tank, if its even possible.

Provari is great Provari is good, but Provari has no balls so doesn't get used. Was my first regulated mod, stood me well, learned to build and DIY on it. But once I surpassed the P's capabilities, sold it and moved on.

Provari holds it's resale value, ended up only paying $40 for my Provari service. :D

There are other places to get beauty rings but it's not needed if a 19mm tank/topper is used. Provape's ring is the same finish as the metal taper and end cap.

Oh that's interesting and good to know. I had been looking at them but I guess the picture is not doing the ring justice. It looks kind of brushed and what not.

Yeah the 2.75 was a joke but any company that is financially do well will always be innovating. They are taking their time to make sure the success with a new device will be better or the same with their previous device. The provari of today is what has made a name for its company and every experienced vapor knows who provape is.

I like the way my provari looked when I first obtained it in the mail. I don't think it was that bad of a design at all, however i do agree that if the top cap is similar from a 2.5 on a future device provape should make their own rings for users going for a "flush" look. Even though I have a ring myself I still like the way the device looks.

I sold my Provari for a Reo, and don't regret purchasing the Reo. After this video came up, I do regret selling the Provari. Most dependable regulated mod in existence, bar none. It simply can't be argued with that it does what it does for as long as you own it, even if it doesn't do it as well as other devices. Sure it's limited in it's capacity, but Provape is all about safety, and that's one thing the Provari doesn't have a single failing on.

The Provari P3 (see video) will be in my hands on release, even though I converted to the dark side of mechanicals, and the not so dark side of the Reo.

Miss the Provari for my Genny builds for sure

I couldn't have said it any better! Yep, that's why I have a couple of both (Provari's and Reo's). Neither mod claimed that they can "do it all," but with both, you have it all (for me). Both well made in the USA! Great customer service. Glad I did my homework and didn't have to waste money finding what worked for me.

Great to see the video! Have been wondering what the facility looks like. Bravo Pete B!

The interview was like eye candy! I'm sure there are other great VV devices out there but I've never felt a need to go further. Talk about a great example of a company who strives constantly to make quality AND provide good employment opportunities to 49 Americans (including health care, 401 K and other bells and whistles)! High standards and JOBS. Still no need for me to look further.
