Anybody Using A Kabuki?

[Vaper Bob]

My GF ordered a Provari Radius last week, we have 4 510 Kabuki's between us....is it worth to buy a P3 Kabuki for it, or will the 510 do just fine? (in other words is there extra benefit in using the P3 version?)

I have 2 Kabukis, both p3s. But then I have two P3s and a Radius and am pretty much sold on Provari mods. The reason I would urge you to get the P3 Kabuki is because it fits flush with the Radius so beautifully, you'll never want to take it off. Makes it look like a single homogenous piece, once you take the 510 adapter rings off the Radius. For me it would be painful to see a Radius with a 510 Kabuki fitted!

I kinda like seeing the Provari Made in USA ring there.

I know it's not politically correct to be Pro-American anything. But being a Texican, I'm Politically Incorrect, and Proud of it!

The 510 and the P3 both look pretty good to me on the Radii

The P3 connection is certainly stronger and is not a weak spot, like most 510 connections are. There may be a small advantage to the P3 when it comes to the actual connection -- it is more direct as the pin of the coil touches the connection.

If you think you'd like the Clapton coils, they work on the P3 version without any modding, I hear.

You can get the P3 verson in GMZ and Stealth. That was enough of a reason for me.

510 Kabuki/Radius ... Are you in pain? [emoji12]

I bounced around from 6% to 24%. I found that 12% was a minimum and 18% worked really well. I can't describe the look of horror at my local B&M when I ask for 12 or 18. I can't describe the look of horror on my face when they don't have anything over 6.

Oh how I have LIVED that, too, JD! It's like a scary movie, coming to life. I still appreciate the (nic) bennies of 18, and when I'm feeling super adventurous, I mix down to 15!

But 6? 3?? ZERO?? How loud does one need to be when saying "I vape not to smoke."......

I could be nothing more than simple profit margin. At one time, some outlets gave differing prices for different levels of Nic. Now, rarely.
As Nic. is not cheap, perhaps there it the Higher Profit thing going on making and selling lower Nic. content, at Premium prices.

Probably all about the money! Now who would thought!!!

Assuming everyone in the room has equal hearing at the same level we answer "us too!!!".

I sucked gallons of 12 and 18mg through a tootle puffer over the years. Lite up a cigarette right after to.

The day I hit a subohm at 6mg was the last day I smoked.

I don't understand how anyone could quit smoking with a TP but I'm happy for them it worked. And I expect the same.

I started at 18-24 with a Nautilus Mini/Istick20 and within a week I was completely done with my 18 year pack and a half day habit. 2 months later I was down to 12 and that's where I have stayed for over a year now with my MTL tanks. I tried a few sub-ohm tanks and RDA's during that time and I can't understand how anyone could quit using that method let alone enjoy it. I get absolutely no satisfaction from sucking in all the air needed for those setups. I also get much better flavor from my MTL setups than I ever got from sub-ohm. I honestly can't understand why it's so popular other than the fact that it's seemed to have turned into a who can blow the most vapor contest.

Understanding is not the end game, quitting the stinkers is. I'm happy for anyone no matter how they did it

So, it happened. I knew it would, I just didn't expect it to occur the way it did. I broke the glass on my brand spankin new P3 Kabuki while putting it back together after it's first total breakdown/cleaning. I knew it would break some day, though I honestly expected it to be from something like bouncing off my driveway (which, to be fair, would have been easier to accept, as I have bounced off my driveway and broken myself). But nope, I was sliding the glass back onto the top to fill, and it cracked the entire length of the tank under almost no pressure.

So ... since they were out of stock on replacement glass when I ordered the tank, it's now useless until I get some shipped to me.

I'm going to order another glass (in hopes I think that this seemingly weaker piece is a fluke and not a common occurrence), but I think I will also get a stainless steel tank so if/when it does occur again, I have at least a tank I can use on it.

So I ask ... does anyone have any pics of the SS Kabuki with the SS tank? I'm not a big fan of all metal tanks, but I think it would at least be ok in a pinch.

Also, besides the standard replacement glass, are the any places I can get maybe something etched or engraved? What size would I be looking for?

And finally, is it safe to assume the replacement glass from Provape and the one from HoH is the same?

WOW! All I can say is WOW! I have GOT to get me 1, or 2, or 3 ... of those ... and custom ones ... I could have a BumbleBee done!!! Awesome!!!

Thanks! It's nice to be able to see the tank polish matches the top and bottom spot on!

 

[coldgin96]

Yes, the replacement glass and SS tanks @ ProVape & HOH are the same.

Wow...is the metal tank section a different metal or finished differently than the top and bottom of the Kabuki? I don't like the look of the plain metal if that's the case...too many textures going on...
