I cant wait to finally get a Kabuki tank and be done with the nautilus!! Looks really good on top of the ZNA someone posted!! :)
It actually looks really good on everything I own and better still works really well too! I bought 2 nautilii (?) when they first came out and they cost about the same as my one (510) Kabuki. I lost a part from the bottom of one of them when giving a pre-use clean :)facepalm:) so in effect had x 1 and some spare bits. I thought it was OK but didn't use it much because it was just OK. My Kabuki has been filled at least once every day since I got it and will, I think, be in use every day for a very long time. (I also think the atty stand is genius!)
 
What happened? 2 days of silence!..Just want to post that i noticed these aspire coils are badly machined..i have the newest nautilus cotton coils and out of 10 which is 2 packages 4 are defective,
the Kabuki will not screw down on these 4,i can spin for days and will not grab.The vape is incredible though on the ones that work,my kayfuns are retired,the Kabuki flavour reminds me of the Z a tty-u when the universe is aligned and i get into a rythmn.

I have never had a coil not screw into the base of the Kabuki or the Zcarto upgrade kit. I have found that the chimney threads to be a little off on the coils. I have purchased all my bvc coils through world of vape. Where did you get your coils at?

I have a small issue with one off my 510 Kabuki's: 90% of the time when I unscrew it from my device the center pin (the adjustable screw thingee) unscrews from the solid part of the center pin. It's no biggie as I just screw it back in.....but maybe someone has a smart solution for this? I am a bit worried I might lose it..or that I will damage the plastic threading of the centerpin.
Or someone perhaps know the size of the screwwie thing so I can get a spare?

I think we should replace your Kabuki Base... Please give the shop a call so we can get that sorted out for you.

unfortunately they only ship to US....but I found a shop in the UK which ships to rest of EU :lol: (cremedevape.com) and which sells the screws...ordering them!

OH good,You found them... Cremedevape used to be called Cloud 9... and they are the EU distributor of the Kabuki and spares. (and a pretty awesome bunch of people, too)

Hello Zen..there's no need to replace the Kabuki base,,some of the coils are machined improperly,the photo below left hand side with the black marker is a defective coil,
actually it's also thinner,when i screw the coil into the base it's a perfect fit,it's the top part that not only doesn't screw in and grab,i can actually slide it in and out of the top part of the Kabuki.

The only time I've ever seen that happen, there was actually a problem with both the coils, AND the top section... so if you want to explore that, I can certainly entertain sending a replacement top section, just to be sure.

Hi @drugarth - we seem to be connected over the past few days, huh? Some good, some... notsomuch. ;)

Kabukis rock.

He he , yea......we seem to own some similair types of vaping gear :) But that's no suprise as you put me up to the Kabuki's :thumbs: They have become my favorite tanks....all I use, except when I need some more capacity
Let's hope the other type of vaping gear we share will still turn out good in the end!

I don't think there's a problem with the Kabuki top section,i just installed 7 older coils that i had and they screw down solid,i'm sure it's the new cotton coils,2 of the 4 coils just slide in and out like a $3 .......
I'll purchase some more cotton coils and report back.

There's a line here that I'll surely use again in this lifetime.

Thank ye kindly.

And where do you shop, just by the way? [emoji6]

Thanks for the reminder, gnees. I need to change that.

Had a bad run with a large vape investment, but it's working itself out. Slowly (like molasses). ;)
And the puzzle continues to complete itself...
