Well I received my first provari today and thought I'd share my initial impressions. Placed my order last Friday for the satin silver v2 provari, two 18490 batteries, the charger, smokteks DCT, and a few spare atomizers. Totaling about $220. Phew a lot of money all at once. I was sure hoping I didn't regret it. Took 6 days to get my shipment from WA to IL. Just so happened I received my drip shield from Empiremods today too, so perfect timing. So what do I think of this much hyped device?
Well.....it's actually pretty awesome. The thing is absolutely beautiful. Like everyone says its built like a tank and the craftsmanship is impeccable. Feels about the size and weight of a similar sized flashlight. I had read so much on it that right out of the box I had a pretty good idea how to work it. I've found the menu system easy to navigate eventhough some will curse the dreaded one button. I had to agree with a YouTube review, it seriously don't take a degree in buttonology to figure this thing out. So I load on my 306 1.5ohm atty along with my new drip shield, I might add, and give this a try. I drip bobas bounty 24mg by the way. Tested my atty, just because I can. Tested at 1.2 ohms. I've been vaping my ego twist at 3.2-3.4v on this atty so I set my provari to 3.3v. First hit, wow. Seems like on the twist it takes a few seconds before it gets all heated up good and get a good hit. Not on this. Press button and bam, mouthful of vapor. So I'm hooked. This thing is just freaking great. I've been on my twists for a while and although satisfied with it I was wanting to move up a bit. And move up I did. The hit and consistency on the provari far out shadow anything else I've experienced. Haven't had a chance to try my DCT yet but will soon. As for the provari. I think this thing is a keeper.
