May I ask " Is it in the picture?"

Now THAT would be a big, fat "Oooops!" right there, good buddy. :unsure:

Like a flippin' HAWK, you. :|

And NOT thinking, me. :facepalm:

If the top cap had a milled groove in it, like the top cap of a KFL+V2, it could add capacity, but not change the dimensions of the tank.
Example picture:

Imagine the top cap of the Kabuki being milled out, similar to this KFL top cap.
Sure the space would be small, but it would be space for more juice...

I'm sure Zen thought of all this, and again, this all hinges on his experimentation with juice capacity and how it affects the coil.
Folks please jump in at any time!!! I've been thinking about this a lot. This isn't directed towards those that think the Kabuki is great as it is.

We all know taste is subjective....right?....right!!!
Has it occured to anyone that the design of the Kabuki is based on Zen's profile & we all don't vape the same?

I keep reading how HE said smaller capacity is ideal.....ideal for who? Many of us with larger capacity tanks don't take a hit in vapor or flavor so I am trying my damndest to understand how a 2 ml tank is ideal for the masses?

And it seems if anyone wants a larger capacity 'Buki they're going to have to look outside of Zen cause he made it crystal clear he's never gonna do it.

Since we're talking length, all that would be needed (I think) is a longer tank & a stem attachment (like the one for the RDA Cubis coils) to reach the coil.

Thoughts????

Da stand! DA STAND!!!! I love(d) that stand as well. MY organizational skills .... welp, let's just say it did not work out well for me. But I love DPL's.



You're truly incorrigible. :lol:;)

I am.

(deal wid it) ;)


(or do something with sox)

HB, I like your ideas of the extra capacity via the top cap, and Scandel, you made sense with all that you said as well.

As Zen has clearly said no to changing the size, perhaps it's best to enjoy the Kabuke as it tiz, and simply utilize other, more spacious tanks for other needs.

Or keep lobbying.

We're a pretty determined bunch, ZenMaster. ;)

The reason I wouldn't lobby-

It makes no sense to spend $85 on a tank- knowing it's capacity before purchase but still made the choice to buy; then moan it doesn't hold more juice.

That {IMO} is right up there with the people who complain about what the ProVari is lacking. There are so many other options to choose from. If one thing doesn't meet one's needs, move on to what does.

People need to accept that it's ok to buy from other companies if the one you swore allegiance to is no longer satisfying your (not you) advanced vaping style.

I need that stand in my life. My organization skills suck!

Note 5!!!

I will only say to proceed with caution (based on Kat's previous "love" and the subsequent actual realities that ensued). :ohmy:

But if you're CERTAIN that you've got the space for it, it does makes things easier.

Stand big. Space small. :blush:

Scandals, I am one of few who like the Kabuki, as is. I don't regret my decision to purchase a few of them, but it's easy to see how someone would like the tech and design and overall precision of the Kabuki in a larger capacity tank. Of course we're free to use all sorts of others, and I actually do just that.

I have sworn no allegiance to any one company, nor do I see that in my future. I love choices! :)

Yes, I swerve the vape lanes occasionally. ;)

Ohhh I've got the space for it all right & an item for every slot & hole in it. Right now, I got ish all over the place. I didn't used to be this disorganized with all my vape stuff but the past 1 1/2 yr has been a whirlwind leaving me very little time to gather my thoughts.

We have an option already, spend our money elsewhere on something that does work for us. I am one who likes to change it up anyways, one day I may load up three PT2's, another day I may just grab my REO, another I may be vaping my Russian 91 or even a ZAP or ZAU attie. Maybe I'll grab my Subtank mini with an Aspire BVC coil or the rebuild deck, or one of my Cerotanks...they all work, and all have their own plusses and negatives. I love my Kabuki tanks and they are always ready to go, but so are several other setups. It's all good :)

Gots no wrist bands right now (gave them all to the TPuffers). Would a sign painter do?


As I await the arrival from you of my t-shirt, you've got to tell me how you did that animated emoji bit. That's really neat!
