The finish on the pearl white is shiny with a subtle touch of sparkle, not matte like the hybrid colors and it is really beautiful! I prefer the shinny finish myself, Iove the look and feel it might be more durable than the matte finish but hybrid color mix is an awesome look.

Thanks! That is exactly what I needed to know! Looks like I will splurge on the White Pearl and maybe put my purple/white hybrid in the classies.
The dragon is beautiful but I can't have both!

Here's a question I would be interested in hearing the ProVape community's thoughts....

Simply... would you rather own ONE P3 or 3-4 2.5's for the same $$$ and why. I ask as I am very close to selling my polished silver P3 and pulling the trigger on a few (or 4) of the $29.95 2.5's.

To me 20w has no advantage over 12-15w (or 4.5-5.0v). My ohm+ vaping is always at around 12-13w and my subohming is always between 35-70w. My 2 Classics and Radius aren't going anywhere, but I don't see a reason to keep this P3. My wife likes my Zombie P3, so that stays.

Thanks!
Well, I've got a good number of 2's and 2.5's, one P3, and one Classic 2015. I wouldn't get rid of either the P3 or the Classic for a number of reasons. One, they both accept flat top cells giving confidence in obtaining cells down the road. The P3 can be used to determine an older batteries condition, and I do use it to go through my cells and cull the older ones when the best IQ I can get from them is "poor". Of course, if I was in your shoes and shipping costs were what you have to pay, I might look at the whole thing differently. If you order three bargain blems, the shipping cost is pretty reasonable spread out over three mods, vs. me being able to buy one and get it shipped first class mail for less than 34$ landed.

I see no benefit paying $25 for the full P3 treatment on a 2.5 unless you have P3 tanks. The tank ring looks great with bigger tanks and I only need 1-2 rings total for all of my 2.5's. The ring doesn't spin at all with my full size Nautilus tanks and the original tapered ring looks great with my Nautilus Minis.

To each their own, but adding $25 to a $30 tank without owning P3 threads tanks seems to be an overly pricy "upgrade". YMMV. :)

I added it to one of the new minis I ordered to see what it is like and decide if I want to do it to more of them. There is a big benefit of easily replacing the 510 connection inexpensively ($7.95) if it becomes damaged or thread worn without having to send the mod itself in for more expensive repairs.

Plus, I am keeping in mind although the blems are now only $29.95 this is really a $100.00+ dollar mod so even at $55.00 (mod + P3 top cap) it's a steal, heck people were buying like crazy when the gold zenkoat one hit the blems for $49.95 :D OR for $67.90 (mod + P3 top cap + extension cap) it's still a steal considering the non-blems without the extras are still $69.95! :)

I would rather own the 2.5s it's a personal preference in looks and function over the P3.

I went ahead and used a bit of the proceeds to "get back" my GMZ mini (I miss it :(). No top cap upgrade, just a beauty ring that I will share with my gold/gmz regular sized 2.5s. No point in upgrading the top cap when the only P3 topper I have is a Ti Kabuki, and that stays on my Ti mini.

You know I will take that mini Ti off your hands!
Glad you will have that GMZ back! Happy for ya!

Multiple 2.5's for sure (with converted caps only for me). And this is coming from someone who loves his three P3's!

I was not a fan at all of the old top. I Eman I liked that it was dang near indestructible, but not that it was fixed, or that some atty's might not fit with the ring (looking at you KF4) and others... Either that or it would spin. And - the atty would come loose more often as well. Just no room for error really in my humble opinion.

Go figure I had paid HOH like $50 with the shipping just a couple months ago to convert my one 2.5 at the time. Haha... Dang...

Since we are seeing colors that have not been around for some time I am really hoping they list some metallic bronze ones ~ mini and/or standard :wub:

I miss my GMZ mini with the flat cap. Yes, it is "all that".

Yes, StealthOne, it sure is. ;)

(don't worry, dahlink...... I'm sure he's in a good/happy/loving home) (abstolutely SURE)



Finally got off the fence! I ordered the Ruby Red, GMZ, Pearl White and a battery so I can use one of my extended caps!
Ok! So I don't need any more!

I've spent nearly a week saying one word, so here we go with my word of the week......


CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!

You'll love them, chili.
