19mm Kabuki and you're on it!

Doubtful. Only if there's a 19mm mod I simply must own..........And even then, I'm not so sure. A 19mm Kabuki would likely hold even less juice than the full size one does. It would require filling up too often for me.

Guys for the extension cap in the below modes. Which position should be correct?

18490
a)View attachment 532580
b)View attachment 532581

18650
a)View attachment 532582
b)View attachment 532587

That's good looking machinery you got there, love the pics!

Like these good helpful people said, "Any way you want it, that's the way you need it!" - Journey

That said, I run it my P3 in the 18650 mode with groove at the bottom like in pic B

Jackie runs her P3 in the 18490 and 18350 and doesn't use the extension with the groove in it at all such as pic B of your examples.

I say the 22 or 22.5 mm tube will be around for quite sometime yet --- due to 18650 batteries being the most abundant shape and size made that are suitable for vaping.

@blizzy I usually use B and B. :)
I think so too. Maximum capacity will always be in demand.

Seriously... Photos do not do them justice.... Now I want a Gunmetal classic to go with them! Lol. Those tears realllllly shine.

These also shipped on Tues and arrived today! So these ones happened to make it to me in 2 business days. Most things to me here around Pittsburgh take 3... Anyway - Happy all around!!

I see you got the p3 top on the mini! I sent them an email to see if they could do it, but didn't get a reply till Monday and wanted to take advantage of the valentine sale... so I ordered one of these instead. Still might grab a gmz mini, too good of a price, looks good man!View attachment 532401
they gave me the sale price since the order was placed with the code. they contacted me on a monday as well. I paid $9 and they added it to my order.

so you place your order, then submit a ticket asking for the p3 top, they confirm on monday and add the price difference to your existing order.

Thanks guys! I was a little worried that if I put them the wrong way I might screw something up. Didn't know it was interchangeable.
Are you like me in that I'm .... about using products "the way you're supposed to?"

I actually went back and looked at ProVape's website to see the way it was, "supposed to be done." lol

As a reference I have run P3 in 18490 mode like this since day 1, which is now a year and a half ago.......

View attachment 532590
Same here.

I find my incredibly shiny silver P3 looks ridiculous in an 18650 configuration. My wife refers to it as a certain kind of sex toy. :eek: I own 18650, 18500 and 18350 batteries and run my P3s, 2.5s and Classics almost always in 18500 mode. The 18650 is just too big and the 18350 doesnt have enough battery power. No right answer, but 18490/18500 for me for sure. :)

Aw dang... They never ever should have made the weak finish..

Know if the Pearl White or Pink Ribbon are the finish that can flake? I'm buying for my sister.

Provape made a truly perfect mod in the 2.5. I own quite a few but have recently slimmed down to the ones I favor the most and have added a few more to the fold with the recent irresistible prices.
I am not a fan of the P3. Owned several that has long since been sold off.
I am happy for those who enjoy the Radius. I wanted to - I wanted one for hubs to fill a need for him. I had hoped it would fit the bill.

I needed honest no BS answers from people who had experience with the radius and who also understood my needs for a new mod. It is a shame I felt it necessary to take it to private convos to avoid controversy for those who are sharing their honest opinion about their experience.

When something doesn't "work" for someone else - it doesn't automatically mean they are doing it wrong.

We are all here because we love Provape. Whatever flavor of Provape be it 2.5, P3 or Radius. For most it certainly isn't the only device we own.

I don't think anyone needs to feel they have to love all versions.
I appreciate those of you who shared with me.

Just my two coppers.

Good post.

I like the P3 but run it exactly the same way (voltage-wise) as my 2.5s. I might sell my silver P3 soon as I have 4 2.5's. My Zombie P3 has been stolen by my wife. Not for the features, but the finish only. She loves the green/red.

I like the Radius, but my original black model was returned twice due to issues and the replacement (stealth) is arriving next week. I am hoping this one is solid as the SX Mini I recently picked up is pretty killer for when I want to do my 30-60w vaping.

The Radius will get use, but I really like the 2.5. Dead simple to use and rock solid.

I went through the website, read through the 30+ page manual then finally posted here to ask.

the only main reason i don't like the p3 in mini mode, is it's so hard to get the bottom cap on... it's like i feel like i'm going to break something!

i do agree it looks better in 18490 size.

my 2.5's
i have one in 18350,18490 and 18650
just because for now, since i had three, wanted to make them one of each size.
the mini and the standard get the most use.
