Owner’s Manual
Rev: 2.50
Thank you for purchasing a ProVari Procyon personal vaporizer.
We hope you get many years of enjoyment from this device.

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 Procyon is a powerful microprocessor controlled PV that lets you adjust and fine tune the device to your exact
preferences by adjusting the power wattage, along with a number of other parameters, which we will explain later in
this manual. The ProVari Procyon has regulated power output which keeps the 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)

Warnings:
●Never abuse your ProVari Procyon - even though it’s made of metal, you can damage it by dropping it.
●Have your ProVari repaired by ProVape. Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself as damage or
personal injury can occur. Any repairs done outside of ProVape will void the warranty.
●Do not remove the circuit board housing from behind the front cap. Doing so will void your warranty.
●Remove the battery from the Procyon if you plan to store it for long periods of time.
●The ProVari Procyon operates on a single battery. NEVER stack two batteries or use batteries that are
not recommended for use in the Procyon. Never use magnets on your batteries. This is very dangerous.
●ProVape will not be responsible for damaged atomizers or tanks. Driving them with too much power for
too long or running them dry can burn them out. We recommend you start with a low wattage setting and
work your way up until you find the right power setting for your atomizer/tank.
●NEVER use primary or non-rechargeable batteries in this device. Only use recommended high drain
rechargeable batteries. At this time we only recommend you use the Samsung 25R cell as its been tested
to work with all the power ranges on the Procyon. If you are unsure about which batteries to use, please
contact us or purchase your batteries from www.ProVape.com to ensure you use the correct batteries.
●Keep your ProVari Procyon away from sources of excessive heat.
●Keep this device and all nicotine-related products out of reach of children and animals. Never drink the
nicotine fluid.
●ALWAYS store your batteries in a plastic battery case. Never put batteries in your purse, pocket or
other locations where coins, keys and other metal objects can touch together and cause a short. This
could cause the battery to catch fire.
●The battery charger is for indoor use only. Do not let it get wet. Unplug the battery charger when
cleaning it or when not in use.
●If a battery deforms, begins leaking or smells funny, dispose of it. Wash your hands after handling leaky
batteries. Do not get the battery fluid in your eyes! If you do, seek medical attention immediately.
●Never use your ProVari Procyon without an atomizer. Do not connect to a volt meter without a resistive
load; high voltages without a resistance can damage the device and will void your warranty.
Do not pour alcohol into the ProVari Procyon. This can damage the display and will void the
warranty. If you have any problems, please contact our customer service team for
assistance: https://provape.zendesk.com/home

ProVari Procyon Feature Details
●The ProVari Procyon wattage can be adjusted from 3 – 50 * in 0.2 watt increments. As your atomizer
resistance changes, the Procyon constantly monitors the resistance and adjusts the wattage to keep it
where you set it. Regardless, if you install a low or high resistance atomizer on the Procyon, it will
automatically adjust the power to keep it at your preferred wattage setting.
●Built-in OLED display with scrolling icons allows you to visually adjust your settings. This feature brings
a full graphic experience to the user allowing you to adjust your settings with an innovative scrolling
menu. Later on in this manual we explain all the different options. While it looks complicated to use, it’s
actually easy and fun. After spending a little time with the Procyon menu, you will find it’s easy to make
changes and adjust your settings to customize the device to your liking.
●The translucent seven color lighted push button acts as a low battery alert and allows you to select from
seven color choices when the button is pressed. In the menu, there is an option where you can select
from seven different colors for the lighted push button: red, green, blue, aqua, yellow, pink or white. There
are also two random options, so every time you press the button, the color changes. When you press the
button to heat up the atomizer, the button will glow in the color you select. When the battery is depleted
and needs to be recharged, the light will flash red.
●On/Off Mode allows you to shut the unit off completely. In the menu you have the option to turn the
device off when it’s not in use. This feature is helpful for when you want to store the device and don’t want
it to accidentally turn on while it’s in your pocket or purse. Anytime a new battery is installed, the device
will default to ON mode even if the device was previously turned off.
●The safety cutoff turns off the unit if the button is held down for too long. This safety feature ensures
that the device automatically shuts down if it detects the button is being held down too long.
●HotShot ® Boost mode allows you to get more vapor with a short power boost with each puff. This
setting is adjustable allowing you to dial-in your favorite boost time setting. Boost mode is useful for those
who want to heat up the atomizer faster. With Boost mode turned on, the atomizer will get a boost of
power for a short period of time, after which the power will drop down to your set power. For example, if
you set your power to 9 watts and then turn on the boost mode to 1, by pressing the button, the device
will boost the power for the first .25 seconds and then it will drop it down to 9 watts. Increasing the boost

6
level to 2, 3, 4 or 5 will increase the amount of time the device boosts the power before it drops down to
your selected 9 watts. Note that turning the ProVari up to max wattage and boosting up to 5 will not
exceed the maximum output of the unit, which is up to 50 watts.
Boost 1 - .25 seconds
Boost 2 – .50 seconds
Boost 3 – .75 seconds
Boost 4 – 1.00 seconds
Boost 5 – 1.25 seconds
●The OTS (Onboard Troubleshooting System) keeps the user informed if there is a problem and how to
resolve the issue with clear instructions. If there is a problem detected, the Procyon will display the error
on the screen along with a recommended fix.
●The battery gauge on the Procyon measures the remaining voltage left in the battery and displays this
with a graphic icon. This measurement is a loaded voltage reading of the battery.
●Smart safety features built-in provide the highest level of safety available.
●The Amperage limiting system protects against over-current situations. The Procyon is capable of
outputting up to 50 watts. If you want to use the Procyon at maximum power, you will need to ensure you
use the approved batteries sold by ProVape. If you install a battery that cannot safely handle the full
power output, the Procyon will not allow the device to work at those levels and the power limit will be
reduced. Our number one mission is safety. If you use a subpar battery that can be damaged or if that
battery is not capable of handling that kind of output power, the ProVari will prevent damage to the device
and the user. Always use the approved batteries we offer on our website with the ProVari Procyon.
People often try to save some money by using a cheap battery and this causes issues because not all
batteries are made equally. This is why we recommend you only use the batteries that are tested and
approved by ProVape to work with the Procyon.
●Thermal monitoring shuts the device off if it detects a high temperature condition. If the ProVari Procyon
ever detects that the internal temperature is reaching a dangerous level, it will turn off and alert you on
the screen that you need to remove the battery and let the device cool down before using it again.
●Left & Right handed mode allows the user to select which way the display reads. This useful feature
allows the user to select if they want to flip the screen for left or right handed operation.
●Check All mode allows the user to see all their critical settings at a quick glance. The Check All feature
shows an at-a-glance screen when you press the button once. This shows you the remaining power left in
the battery, the heating element resistance, and your current power level. If the atomizer is not installed or
there is a problem with the heating element, you will get an OP reading meaning OPEN. The device does
not see the atomizer installed when this appears. Try changing out the coil or atomizer and try again. The
check all menu can be turned off and you can also adjust the amount of time it appears on your screen.
●Save profile - Save all of your favorite settings into 5 available memory slots. The Save and Recall
feature allows you to setup the device with your favorite settings and then save them for easy recall later.
The device will always remember your settings, even when changing batteries. Here’s an example: if you
have a vanilla flavored fluid you use at 9 watts and you want the LED color to be white when using this
fluid, you would simply set these preferred settings, go into the menu, and select SAV to profile 1.
Additionally, if you like cinnamon flavored fluid at 9.6 watts and want a red LED while using this fluid, you
would set those parameters, and go to the SAV to profile 2 in the menu. Once you have those two profiles
saved, you can simply go to the Recall menu and select which profile you want to load. This will adjust all
your preferred settings quickly.
●Scroll speed adjust allows the user to select the speed of the scrolling menu. The default scroll speed is
set to 2. Once you get acquainted with the menu system, you may find that the default speed is too slow.

7
When you are ready to increase the speed at which the menu items pass by, you can access the scroll
speed menu to change this speed. We recommend going to 3 and seeing how that works for you before
turning it all the way up to 5.
●The OLED brightness adjustment allows you to adjust the brightness of the display. Please note that
with OLED technology, if you set the brightness all the way to maximum, 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 Procyon, this
setting can affect the life of the internal display.
●Reverse battery protection keeps the circuit safe if the battery is accidentally installed backwards. The
ProVari Procyon has a built-in reverse battery protection. If you install the battery backwards, it will not
turn on. Simply install the battery properly to get power. The Procyon is compatible with flat top batteries.
