it comes with a pin and the cup is available as an accessory!

To be honest, if you need the cup as well, you might as well splash another 30 eur and get the whole calix v2!

Looks like the cup comes with the v1 pin. Would like to get the CV2, but just bought the V1 in November, and can't justify the extra cash. I can, possibly, justify a complete V2 base, pin, cup.

I can put just the base as one product and just the SS cup with the v2 pin as another.

That would work great for me, Billie. Your customer service is really appreciated. Probably won't be able to order until the week after next at the earliest.

Again, your attention to customers is something not often seen.

Hahahahaha! Thanks!

I'll look forward to ordering as soon as I wake up tomorrow!

Got a little conundrum too....

I have a docs apt at 10:00am tomorrow and was gonna take the whole day off, just to relax, but now I see my Stealth P3 Titanium will be delivered to MY WORK tomorrow....!

So now I guess I'll work the afternoon.... Grrrrr.... Stupid "signature required" garbage.... Lol


@StealthyTX - I'll send you a PM too - but looks like the p3 based Calix will be ready to order tomorrow!

I think I'm going to order a p3 Calix. Will it be just a p3 base or will it be complete? Will the glass tank for the version 1 fit the version 2 if I was going to order a spare? Last question, can anyone give me some tips on best wire wicking combo for a p3 provari. Want to go ahead and order the wire and wick so if I could get sizes for wire that would help. Thanks.

-Yes, v1 glass fits. But I personally recommend the Cage tank or the new acrylic tank replacements. But the v1 glass will work.
-I think when he puts it up tomorrow, it will be the complete Calix P3 threaded Elegance (everything you need).
-I like a 28 gauge (kanthal) and either rayon or Japanese cotton for the wick.
-Q's video is very helpful for the build. Mine is almost identical, but I use a smooshed microcoil in mine. Just seems to ramp up faster for me for MTL (mouth to lung) inhales. I also recommend around a 2.5mm coil (use a 3/32 screwdriver bit to get close of you have one at home).

I'll follow up with Q's video in a moment. I'll just repost it.

Maybe I'll try to give some Amazon (easy and trustworthy) links to cotton and coil wire.

Just trying to help, as I know Billie is a busy guy right now!

I appreciate that, links would be helpful. I've got a ton of organic cotton from the sophia but looks like the game has changed since I used that. What's the difference between rayon, Japanese, and the organic cotton balls from cvs?

It is. Congrats!

I only ask because I saw your video where you built a single coil on a Calix (I think it was for temp control...I wont be doing that...I'm shooting for just a plain old single 1.6ohm coil) and it didn't look so easy to me :unsure:

But both you and @stanleybb50 have spoken its praises, and even a non-rebuilder like me has heard of byLeo, so I took the plunge. If it does work out, I'll be back to get a colored tank to go with my GMZ Provari 2.5. I'm leaning blue, maybe the red.
