Opinions? Super durable VV mod to match GTUS (Genesis type mod)?

[bradlyb]

I have been doing a fair amount of research into different VV mods. So far I am looking at a Buzzpro.

I am looking for something extremely durable (I am prone to dropping my ecigs) that also matches a GTUS. I see the the buzzpro would not be flush with the GTUS.

While that's not a deal breaker I am wondering if anyone has a suggestion.

This would be an all day vaping device (it seems to me that a provari would be something I would want to keep in the house).

i take my provari everywhere with me, it's my all day every day PV, the finish has held up pretty well given how much i use it, toss it in my pocket or book bag. but i think it would look slick with a GTUS, i have mines with an Odysseus drip atty and i like it.

+1 for provari. Its made out of stainless steel.

Provari - a zenesis atty is being made specifically for it that will be a perfect fit.

Edit: somehow I missed the part where you mentioned already having a GTUS! I'm sure a Provari would meet your needs though - very durable.

the Mini Provari would be a super cool carry around PV... I don't buy one because I take a bottom feeder on the road (Reo Mini) but what i'm saying is it's a small batt (14500 for the Reo) and not needed for all day; ergo... The Mini Provari...

Oh yeah the V2 Provari is great for Gen type or any rebuildable because you can now go low with voltage and resistances.

I think I am convinced on the Mini Provari. I did some more research and did not realize that they are so durable. Thanks everyone.

Provari.Best Mod bar none on the market.

I agree with the nice thighs on this one.

+1 for the Provari

Probably the Buzzpro since it doesn't have a screen less to break..but potentiometers (voltage adjustment in a Buzzpro) wear faster than switches usually..I would suggest getting a lanyard of some kind so you can hang it from your neck though so you can't drop whatever you buy.

Another option might be buying a couple chrome Lavatubes then if you dropped one you would have a backup..but I would wait until they come out with version 2 in a month or so if you went that way.

Another option would be the VV eGo's they sell to take out with you but they only have 3 voltage options 3.3,3.7 and 4.2v.

One thing you should be careful of if you drop e cigs lithium batteries don't like it..so be careful with any e cig you have dropped hard..watch it charging and for it to get hot..if it started charging fast and not lasting long that can be one sign of a damaged battery.

I vote Buzz Pro. Both mods are very well built and rugged, but in the unlikely event you would drop your mod one too many times, your out less $ with the B Pro. Also, I've been extremely happy with mine for several months now.

I love the Buzzpro, but it's not going to look nearly as good with a GTUS on top as a Provari will.

I looked into Lavatubes and video reviews made them seem... cheap. I guess its just a matter of getting what you pay for. I want something that is proven to work for an extended amount of time.

I purchased 2 VV egos a while back and both of them broke, within two weeks. The first I dropped and it never fired again. The second one 'charges', when I plug it in the light blinks a few times. When I take it off of the charger it wont fire. I have tried LR, standard, and Mega attys on it. None of them work. I definitely do not suggest ever purchasing VV egos.

I am currently using a standard ego and love the durabilty of them. Cheap, work forever, great throw away PV. I seem to always go back to them.

The thing is that the pictures of a GTUS on an ego.... well... it just looks FUNKY. Plus, I love VV (i had a madvapes vv box that worked great, until it fired/melted in my sweater pocket.... oops...).

The GTUS looks amazing on a provari, and I have been drooling over Provari's and Darwin's since I started vaping almost a year ago. Also, this video convinced me:



So I am taking the plunge.

Tonight I am ordering a mini Provari.

I've had a LT and it's better than I thought it would be after the reviews I had seen. I've been using it a month and have been very happy. Sure it's mass produced but it's not bad for the price and a lot of sites warranty it for a year.

I don't have any experience with VV eGo's except looking at them I just mentioned them because they are inexpensive.

I have 5 SmokTech eGo's from MadVapes..3 of them from last summer and they still work great..looking a little worse for wear though.

My biggest issues with the Provari are it costs about twice what it should and the 1 button thing to do anything (this will probably keep me from ever buying one). It seem very cumbersome to use and all the button pressing and waiting looks like a pain. For that price I would like a better display something more like a cell screen and of course +/- buttons so I can change voltages easily as I like to change them often.

When my cartos warm up a lot of times I like to up volts .2 when they cool i turn it down .2. With the Provari I would have to press the button 5x wait a couple seconds..then press the button through a menu once I got to voltage wait a couple seconds more then select voltage..I would have to do that every time I changed the voltage and I change the voltage multiple times a day.

The other thing is I know after a few months any device I buy will be scratched and I would rather have something I can replace without costing an are and a leg. Plus I want more than one device because I use at least 7 different flavors a day and I prefer to not change cartos on devices all the time.
