I agree about the resistance. However, this is the 2nd coil, i just need to tighten it before i put it baxk together. Hopefully.

One way to usually stop this is to screw the coil into the base well, then put a drop of e-liquid on the upper threads of the coil before threading it into the tank. Has worked well for me.

Until I did this, every time I refilled, the coil would remain in the tank, and the coil would of course unscrew from the base, and Always leave the connection pin in the base. Which I would have to remove and re-insert into the coil base.
Now it doesn't.:)

Surly to god this is a mis-type. I cant' imagine anyone smoking 30 packs a day!:eek:;)

For me, it was 2 1/2 pack a day, and the switch was almost immediate. Although I had tried sinuse, Patches, snuff. Nothing worked.

And they say that E-Cigs "Aren't a stop Smoking Device" BS Government.:-x
What they are really saying is that there is NO Big E-Cig like there is Big Tobacco putting money in their pockets. Don't' believe for a moment it is about our health and safety. It's what it has always been about. Money and Power!

Sorry ...I MEANT by that 30 PER DAY

Hi Everyone :)

Where do all you Kabuki-users buy your ASPIRE coils ?

Ive been buying the "Authentic Aspire BVC 1.8 and 1.6 coils" from FT at around 8$ for the five pack .

FT has offered a reduced price of around 7.30 for 10-20 packs....

I need to purchase a lot of them in preparation for the approaching EURO VAPE-apocalypse.

I also use quite a lot of them since I change my coils every three days or so and keep about 4 setups going....


Up until now Ive been wary of buying more than 5-6 packs max... just to avoid a large package attracting attention at customs .....but I really DO need to stock up on those coils so Im ready to take the plunge...

Ive heard people on ECF say that they have stocked up and now have years worth of Aspire Mini Nautilus coils and was just wondering how they went about it ??

would you mind sharing WHERE you purchase your Aspire coils and for what price ?

How many do you buy at a time ?
Anyone ever purchased in "large-ish" quantities (more than one-two packs at a time ?)

By the way, Im only interested in the supposedly AUTHENTIC Aspire coils .... ;)

Is there a US online vendor for the P3 threaded Kabuki other than Provape (who doesn't have them in stock)? I can find multiple overseas vendors with them in stock but can't seem to find one here in the states.
There is not... but they will have them back in stock momentarily....

So... On a different note...

I'm vaping a prototype of a new limited release Kabuki that will be coming out in the next few weeks...

The FIRST person that can correctly guess what it is will win one when they are released...

Hints...

1) Nothing has changed in the design of the tank, so it's not higher capacity or anything new like that.

2) Some of you WANT it... like... a LOT.

Next on the news front... The shop cleanup is still underway, and the insurance claim is being prepared... all told between inventory loss to contamination from being submersed in water... Retail value of goods plus cleanup and damage to the premises we're looking at a 1/4 million dollar endeavor. I thank my lucky stars for having good insurance. Thanks to those of you that took the time to reach out to see how I was holding up... I really appreciate it!

MORE NEWS....

Some of you know that I ordered a custom mixed batch of delrin so I could make drip tips that match the colors of the Radius... well... we sent the best match of Pantone Colors we could muster, and the manufacturer came close, though not as close as I like, but it's going to have to do....

That being said, I can't honestly tell you they are an exact match, because they are not... they ARE very nice colors and compliment the Radius very nicely, but if you expect matchy-matchy color coordinated perfect, yeah... it's not going to happen...

So... soon you will see a release of tips in the following not so matchy-matchy colors.

Instead of Mindnight Blue, we're calling it "Round Midnight Blue" (named after the Thelonious Monk tune) It looks great with the Midnight Blue Radius, but it lacks the "grayness" that the radius has... still, a wonderful compliment to the device.

And instead of Cabernet Red... We're gonna have to call this one "Pinot Red"... still a wine color... a little redder than the Radius, but again, still a nice looking color that suits the Radius well. I'm really picky, and it doesn't offend me to be off a bit, especially knowing I will never be able to nail it completely.

It was pretty brave investing in a custom mill run of delrin which was done with no guarantee... kinda big $$$ to risk, but it was worth a shot. I can say this with absolute certainty... I'm the only guy with this color Delrin ON THE PLANET!

Pinot and RM Blue will be available on the following mouthpieces/tips, in limited quantities initially...

Gertrude
Althea
Matilda

Be on the lookout for some new designs soon.

AND... Happy Birthday Kat!

Ouch on the damage $$. I sure was hoping it was considerably less than that. Even with insurance, large claims are icky!

So great that you are still finding time to work on your next projects while re-building (or preparing to) the shop/store/B&M.

I'll make a guess or three on the prototype:

1. Threaded 2 part top section for easy top fill.

2. P3 threading with 510 adapter.

3. 510 that works with another perhaps popular coil -- The Triton Mini coils.

4. It's in princess purple :wub: for me, classwife, ocelot and a few others. :lol:

Hmm...

All stainless steel tank with juice view peep hole.

But think Tear may have good chances with the P3/510 adapter option.

Nope

Thank you, Zen, and a loverly B-day it's been, in no small way!

So ya wanna guess from us. Ok. A non-breakable glass tank would be my guess! ;)

But not a scratchable (with tissue paper) piece of plastic either. :facepalm:

(And this is not a personal request, as I've yet to damage one.)

Here's to the clean up and insurance and getting the shop back to normal. I can guess that even tho some did NOT say it, we all truly wish you well in dealing with this utter fiasco.

The best to you, Zen. Always, without a doubt.
