Thank you for purchasing a ProVari 3 personal vaporizer.

Introduction

A personal vaporizer (PV) is a battery-powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine by way of a

vaporized solution. In addition to the nicotine delivery, this vapor also provides a flavor and physical

sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke. Vaporizers do not contain tar and have just a few

ingredients compared to several thousand found in traditional cigarettes. There is no tobacco or combustion

involved in its operation. There is no ash and no cigarette smoke smell. Vaping is the 21st century alternative

to smoking tobacco products. Just please keep in mind that personal vaporizers are not meant to be a

smoking cessation device.

The ProVari 3 is a powerful microprocessor controlled PV that lets you adjust and fine tune the device to your exact

preferences by adjusting the power (in voltage or wattage), along with a number of other parameters, which we will

explain later in this manual. The ProVari 3 uses the latest technology to bring you some new and exciting features.

The ProVari 3 has regulated power output which keeps the voltage or wattage the same with each puff regardless of

your remaining battery power. As the battery drains, the device will keep the power output consistent, giving you the

perfect vapor all day long. Now you can dial-in the perfect settings for your tank or atomizer, and e-liquid!

(Please note that due to ongoing software updates, improvements and changes based on customer

feedback, some of the features or screen images shown in this manual may be slightly different)

If you install a battery that cannot safely handle the full power output, the ProVari 3 will not allow the device to work at those levels and the power limit will be reduced.
Page 7 61, replace the battery with a new high drain battery. These are available on the ProVape website if you do not have a local source for them. The IQ value will vary a little but generally if it’s 61 or above you are ok to use that battery.
Page 8 OLED technology, if you set the brightness all the way to high, the display won’t last as long as if it's turned down. While we expect you to get many years of enjoyment out of the ProVari 3, this setting can affect the life of the internal display.
Page 9: Provari 3 Components
ProVari 3 Components Tanks, cartomizers and atomizers screw into the Front Cap (1). Make sure you load these devices with your fluid of choice before attempting to use the ProVari 3. The Front Cap is permanently attached onto the Tube (2). Do not attempt to remove it.
Page 10: Provari 3 Adapter
ProVari 3 Adapter The ProVari 3 features a new standardized thread (P3 thread) which allows the user to easily switch between 510-style threads, Ego-type threads and any new hardware equipped with properly designed P3 threads. On the top of the 510 thread we have added coin slots so you can tighten the connector using a penny or dime.
Page 11: Batteries
To ensure you get the correct batteries you should always purchase them at www.ProVape.com. The ProVari 3 has the ability to detect what type of battery you have inserted and if that battery is capable of providing adequate power to the unit. If you use a poor quality battery, the ProVari 3 will reduce the output power to match what the battery is capable of safely providing.

Page 29 Reduce Volts / Watts or Replace Atomizer – This error can occur if the voltage or wattage is set too high and P3 cannot safely power the atomizer with your current settings. This can also happen if you have the voltage or wattage set too high along with the boost mode set too high. Try lowering your settings.
Page 30: P3 Energy Gauge
This is NOT the case with the P3. Because of this, ProVape engineering has designed a special energy gauge algorithm to be more useful to the P3 user. It displays the true percentage of available energy more accurately.
Page 31 When considering these factors in this unique application, ProVape engineering has designed the energy gauge display of Available Energy to provide a more TRUE display. Because of this, it will work differently than what you are used to using. It will work differently in the following ways: 1) When a battery is initially installed, the energy gauge will display ?? instead of a percentage for about 1-2 button presses.
Page 32: P3 Iq Description
P3 IQ Description P3 Input Quality (IQ) Feature Description The P3 has a unique feature which is called Input Quality (IQ). The original ProVari was the 1 PV to offer the user the capability to measure the atomizer resistance. This new feature extends to the P3 with the capability to allow the user to measure the total quality of any input contact or the battery’s internal resistance.
