LOL.. I like that.. Provangelist
I never recommend the provari to new vapers.. I know that they could save money by going straight to it but some of us need to do the
vaping thing in steps. I started with mall ecigs and then 510s and then egos and then boxmods and so on. I've enjoyed and learned with every step. Plus I think that if a noob gets a provari too soon.. it can back fire. No matter how good a PV is.. if you don't know how to properly fill a carto.. it's not going to be pretty. And then they come here wanting to know what's wrong with their provari. If their tank leaks.. they want to know what's wrong with their provari.. if their juice isn't good, they want to know what's wrong with their provari. If they don't understand how resistance and voltage play together, they tend to blame the provari. When they see all these provari owners talking about how great the provari is and then they buy one, they're going to expect that provari to magically solve all of their
vaping problems and when they get a dry burnt hit when they don't fill the carto right or try to run a LR atty at 6v. they're going to wonder what's going on. Not everyone is the sharpest knife in the drawer. There are some who can pick it up rather quickly.. but I wasn't one of them and I suspect there are others like I was.
Start with an ego, or a kgo or an e power. Learn to fill cartos, try a few juices, try dripping. If you start at the top, you'll never really appreciate it. With each step I took.. it was like WOW! and everything was great for awhile, but I was never really truly satisfied. It wasn't till I finally got my provari that I knew what WOW really was and what true satisfaction really was. Could I find this satisfaction with any vv device? I don't think so.. while I do use and enjoy other devices, when I really need to know what's going on, when I'm wondering if something is wrong with one of my other devices, I reach for my provari. In using it.. it has taught me how to enjoy the other devices that don't have a voltage readout or an ohms checker.
OK OK.. I guess I do have provangelitis! Before I got my provari, I never looked at the ones who owned one with disdain like I've seen others do. I was jealous.. sure but not a defiant jealous, not a mean jealous.. I was just plain jealous that I didn't have one LOL. I have one, I love it, I recommend it. I have other mods that I love and recommend also depending on that person's wants, needs, level of vaping experience, and budget. While I wasn't a fan of my LT, there are others that are and I recommend it when I think it will make that person happy. I had a bad LT experience and I trashed it to others. I regret that now. I'll never again praise the provari while putting another PV down. When I see someone trashing provari owners I can now just shake my head and smile. We do tend to be a bit smug sometimes. We do tend to jump into a thread with posts like "buy a provari.. it's the best".. while it may be in our eyes, it might not be the best option for that particular person at that particular time. And there are plenty of other vapers out there who are completely happy with their egos or box mods or LT's and don't need or care about anything else. Who am I to tell someone that their device isn't good enough and that they should buy a provari? But if I'm asked for my opinion on it, I'll sure give it LOL.
I paid quite a bit more for that beauty in my avatar. Do I think it's better than my provari.. um.. NOT! Do I think it's just as good? well.. not right now while it's still got a kind of wood/varnish smell and I have to keep it in a jar of coffee while I'm not using it but it's close. I'm rambling I know.
Provangelitis is a good thing to have IMO LOL
