Well, thanks for telling me now, DP.
I just bought another one from Mt Baker.
Guess I'll throw it away, when it gets here.
Silly (HI!)gnees. You should know better than to do something like THAT.
Buying a FIVE-TEN???? WHAT in the WORLD is WRONG with you? Oh, wait. That's right. YOU snowballed Santa (with the other crazed Eagles fans).
Never mind.
The next time will be the first time, in over four years of dropping-and-trying. And if/when it does, I'll grab a needle-nose and rip it out.
Deal, done.
No, no! These things are not fit for human utilization. I can't believe that HOH even MADE them. There should be legislation against such outrages acts, in my opinion.
Trash is the only answer.
Or.......one year down the road I see this.
WTB, 510 Kabuki, for my innokin product. willing to pay 150%.

D'ya think I could've gotten 200% for GMZ 510 that I just trashed?
Awwwwwwwwww, JEEZ, gnees! Why didn't you mention that earlier???
Oh yeah, I forgot. Santa (etc.).
The clone was mentioned way before I entered this thread (Dec.1 2015) and it is fact that the clone exists and the authentics will no longer be manufactured by HOH. So, if someone wants one, as was expressed by several in this thread, that is where they will need to go. That is just business and I'm sure Zen is well aware that is exactly what will transpire.
Now, if there is a rule to not talk about the clones in this thread I will certainly respect it if the moderator will post such rule and clean up the thread of all clone talk. Another thread dedicated to the clone would be beneficial IMO.
You're absolutely right.
1. The COUNTERFEIT (cuz let's stop OK'ing theft by giving it the cute name "clone") was mentioned long ago.
2. It IS business, and anyone who has even designed a drip tip, has been ripped off by the lawlessness of the Chinese manufacturing culture.
3. There IS no rule about -not- talking about it (the Mods will clean up anti/pro arguments), but that doesn't mean we have to keep the subject alive here. As evidenced by the many likes, and good reception of my original statement, many people here feel the same as I do.
---This last one is aimed more broadly at anyone defending the talk of COUNTERFEIT devices on this thread.---
4. The title of this thread is "Anyone using a KABUKI?" which refers to the authentic. Anyone using a counterfeit is just not using a Kabuki. A fake is a fake.
If this were a Coca-Cola thread, anyone talking about the taste of Mt. Shasta Cola would be asked to stop, or leave.
Is Mt. Shasta Cola tasty? Yes!
Is it a brown, sugary, carbonated beverage? Yes!
But is it Coca-Cola? No. It's a generic brand, meant to imitate a larger name brand. Not quite counterfeit, but close enough for my example to be clear.
Fake atomizers are -NOT- the same as authentic atomizers. I don't care how 1:1 they get, they simply are not the same.
I am not trying to start an anti/pro COUNTERFEIT conversation, as we've alllllll been down that road.
I just strongly feel that we should keep the subject out of this thread, as the topic IS the authentic Kabuki, and not its illegitimate Chinese fake.
Sorry but im not too well informed on this : is there gonna be a NEW P3 Kabuki with IMPROVED AIRFLOW compared to what we now have on the current kabuki 510's and P3 Kabuki's ?
Honest question: How much better could it be than what it currently is? My point of reference is only the P3 Kabuki, but I can't imagine having anything more in terms of airflow control.
You can be what you want to be but my head is not so big where I think I'm superior or better than any of you. If one feels they're elistist because they own a couple of ProVari then all I can do is smh!
Out of curiosity, where any of you elistist smokers?
Note 5!!!
Did anyone else notice the 4 words emphasized below?
"The 510 Kabuki version as you know it, is no longer in production... so if you plan on having an original Kabuki 510 version, get 'em while you can. Some dealers still have a few left in stock. There are no more at HoH and no more of "this" version will be made again.
P3 and Z2 are what we're making now."
We do know a Ti P3 version is in the works. Anyone else wondering what is next on Mr. Zen's prototype schedule?

Personally, I've enjoyed having HOH/Zen being invited by Vape360 to participate here to help handle some early questions, provide support and give views on various glass, etc. I would love for that to continue. IMHO, if it becomes a generic thread and clown battle, I fear that could cease.
I'm kind of surprised there is no active Kabuki thread in tanks or general sections, considering it's popularity and use on lots of devices besides Provi's. Perhaps someone who has purchased from one or more of the various overseas vendors can start one.
