Anybody Using A Kabuki?

[stanleybb50]

Definitely 22 wide, and I measured with calipers at like 25.5 tall (just the glass piece).

wouldn't you then need special hardware for it? Like thicker walled (Larger OD) glass tanks and such?

I'm thinking the P3 diameter is a bit over 22mm as the Kabuki (510) has a small lip running around the edge when attached to P3.

ETA: Calipers show 22.7mm for the P3.

Interesting…all mine, z2, P3 and 510 measure 21.87mm

 

[stanleybb50]

I think he meant the P3 itself measured 22.7mm. That's around what I read on my calipers as well.

Ah gotcha. My 2.5's also measure 22.7mm

Pipe cutter works, but needs de-burred with a Dremel or sanded or something. I have a Dremel, but this was just a test to see if I could get a straight cut. Looks like I can for the most part. Easier than what I did the other night! .

And for what it's worth - I'm very impressed with the strength of this stuff! Very impressed. The last pic below is of me squeezing as hard as I possibly can (my hand was shaking - lol). I'm not a small guy too....

BTW the metal Kabuki tank - does it have the Zen logo or any engraving? The tube looks a bit plain...

No. The SS tank is featureless.

Thought you might like a video showing how resilient it is - since that small piece is just junk anyway.

It's weird - it doesn't look like I'm swinging that hard on the video.... But trust me - even those first taps - you would NOT want your finger underneath...

Hrm...bummer.

 

[stanleybb50]

Not a bummer at all - I was very very very impressed and much stronger than I expected.

Oh sorry - I should have quoted hehe was replying to Moxi about the plain_Jane metal Kabuki tank

And that poly looks like one I use to know for a brief minute after putting some delish Peach spicy DIY juice it my tank. It turned a beautiful shade of cracked.

I ordered one from provape and its just blank. Stark chunky metal.

Does look very classy the radius kabuki combo. Can't wait to see it on the black radius

Have a giggle at the post boozing scotsman albeit with the classy looking mod lol

@stanleybb50
Can you torch the edge of the tube? Neon glass guys do it all the time.

The Poly Tube won't be quite so forgiving after it has had eLiquid in it for a while... it gets brittle

Split the difference and get a silo tank...$35 , better than a nautilus. No cuts or broken tank reports thought I'm sure it has its own issues like every tank. capacity is 5ml. I have no comparison as I've owned neither just putting an option out there

Anyone Come from a silo want to chime in? It's under half the price with very similar specs and much cheaper operational costs too given it takes aspire glass

Sweet vapes has aspire made nickel coils for $9/5 pack fwiw. $10 for the regular Bvc

I'm still debating. Lots of issues here given the simplicity of the tank. I did see the nautilus coils have been improved drastically since I used them. The problems I have with my hands right now and through surgery likely mean the kabuki won't work with the tank being so tight and glass prone to breaking I broke an original. Atticus glad even. The neurological issues are why I need a prebuilt coil tank so the reported difficulty dating back to the first few pages of getting coils in and glass out definitely are putting me off.

The silo tanks are a leap ahead of the original nautilus, more air flow and taste better. Even the silo lite that uses the other aspire bvc coils is nice. I drilled bigger holes in nautilus to increase airflow and it really helps. Also in the beyond vape silo light. Hell even the regular silo could use a slightly larger hole. When i got the kabuki I thought it needed more air, I think that was from using subohm tanks with massive air flow. After the second tank the kubuki shined and i love it.

I plan on grabbing a few quartz and one or two more steel tubes for my stash of "survival" gear, I am hoping the Poly works out for short term usage like taking on vacation trips etc.

I vape Nicoticket Wakonda and haven't had a tank get cloudy it appear weak in any way. I'm not sure what kind of juice does it - but what I'm vaping definitely does not seem to have an effect. Whether on my KFL's, KF4's (I molded a piece of Poly for it a few months ago to replace the little glass section between the two barrels), you name it, no issues.

I've dropped that modified KF4 several times too - haha.
