I've had my 510 since they first hit the shelves in June and it still needs the wrench but my 2 Z2's are nice and easy.
Anybody Using A Kabuki?

Out of my 4 Kabuki 510's, two require a rubber stip on the base to open, tho not too much force needed. The other two open perfectly. I think alot has to do with o-rings, juice lubrication & who knows what else. 
I broke my original tank after cleaning my kabuki, broke it trying to get it on before i got to use it. Zen heard about it and graciously sent me a new tank. In the meantime i ordered some replacement tanks from spectrum tanks. Their tank went on like butter on hot toast with the original o rings. Spectrum sent new orings with there tank but i did not change them. When Zens tank arrived i tried it, it was somewhat harder to get off and on when adding juice. Put the Stectrum tank back on and back to being very easy, no leakage with either tank. The orings from spectrum look thinner than the original ones, but i have not tried them. Maybe the Spectrum glass has a tab bigger inner diameter . I seems to work easier.Out of my 4 Kabuki 510's, two require a rubber stip on the base to open, tho not too much force needed.

I agree, I think the Spectrum tubes are slightly larger and they also aren't quartz like Zen's (I have one too). That's why I think it's good to have lots of different o-rings, in different thicknesses. Glass, especially quartz, can vary a bit in ID I believe, even if it's supposed to be the same size.
Well, after months of smooth sailing with my Kabuki, I had a toe stub tonight with it. Was re-filling, and when I went to screw it back together the threads felt a little tight, cross threaded the darn coil into the chimney. Had to drain it and pull the ...tank, to get enough leverage on the coil to remove it, ( pliers and a cushion ) I just got lackadaisical and didn't bother to back thread it and listen for the click before proceeding, three times in a row 
It's back now, right as rain, full, and vaping nicely

oh GREAT!!!
Thanx so much...Just placed an order there for a second Kabuki this WE....but didnt even think to look through their Mods !!!
Just luv that color
I'm thinking the raspberry with Phiniac glass on a Kabuki would be beautiful! Glass arrived today; hoping for the raspberry, next week.
For loosing it up... If this is helpful to anyone at all... I was using the wrench every time. Then i went crazy smearing juice all over the oring. That got ot loose enough to not use the wrench anymore. After a week i noticed this crunchy noise when taking off. Rinsed the orings in warm water, still loose enough to not use wrench and no crunchy noise.
Looking forward to my second radius (black) and p3 kabuki coming in the next few days
Also really loving how well it handles hedons bite, the flavour is def. comparible to my vector but the ease, oh the ease!

Anyone seen this yet?

Mini Triton coils that will fit the Nautilus/Kabuki! 1.8ohm Clapton and 1.2 ohm kanthal. Really interested in this if it's real.

I found the kit on a couple of sites - pre order, only. I couldn't find the coils, separately. Perhaps @Zen~ will know?

Nice find Bird Dog. Looks like Aspire will be launching them is month. Dunno if they will fit the Kabuki (they mention they are short) but I'm guessing they will.

Dumb question.. What would the benefit of those coils be or is it just more options?
Not a dumb question at all. Having both the nautilus coils and a triton , I've noticed better flavour off the triton. It also handles juice with more VG in them.
There also available in lower ohms.
That said, these minis are an unknown and we won't know how they perform until they're out.

When comparing the Aspire tanks... The Triton Tank has better flavor than the Nautilus Tank... however... in all taste tests so far the Kabuki has beat out the Triton, even though the Triton beats the Nautilus... the Triton also KILLS the Atlantis and Atlantis 2. But not the Kabuki.
That being said, The Mini Triton coils should fit the Kabuki, although I have not been able to get my hands on them yet... however... I had prototype test coils that eventually became the Triton Mini... and they will provide a great deal of benefit for our Kabuki users that use it on mechanical mods with the 1.2Ω coils. The 1.8 will be the best one for regulated folks, and I have not had a sample with the clapton coil yet. I'm trying to get them now, but so far, hasn't happened.
For the TC crowd I'm sure the TC coil will be tested by many in the future, time will tell.
The best news in this, that I was aware of but not allowed to reveal... this means more options for Kabuki users... when people were worried about the nautilus coil being discontinued, Aspire has broadened the options even further.
Rumors have been circulating since last week about a rebuildable Nautilus setup in the near future as well.
I have not been able to confirm who the builder is, but I saw a picture today. And here are some details... this is all I know about it. VVTF E Cigarette Vaping Hardware - Vaping, Vapor, Throat Hit, Flavor

Great news!!!
Since I use mainly DX350 Mechanical devices with my Kabuki's I'm certainly looking forward to trying the 1.2 ohm Kanthal Coils, thanks for the heads up
It's been ages since I used a tank with replaceable heads. Do the Naughty coils have a break-in period?
