Well I received my Stealth today and am pretty happy with it. Everything you would expect out of a Provari.

I do have one gripe though. The quick settings check. Great concept and I really like the idea. But mine seems to constantly have the display screen on when it is being fired. I cannot have it set so that I can quickly push the button to see my battery life and then when I am vaping the device have the screen stay off. It is minor of course and have just decided to leave it as off. Though it would have been nice to have the quick setting just when you press the button once.

That is how the stealth mode with my evic vtc mini is. When you are vaping the screen stays off. One click of the button and you can see your settings quickly. Would have been happier if the P3 Stealth did the same thing.

You can turn it off. I have it off, but I can't remember how - give me a minute.

ETA:
Set

Yes yes indeed I have found that setting but when that is set to off I can't do the quick setting check with one button press. See I would like it so that when I am vaping the screen is not displayed, but also when I click once I can see the settings real quick.

I guess maybe it is having your cake and eating it too but the VTC mini does this and I really like that feature. Seems it would save on the display screen life.

Thanks for response.

If you haven't tried this: with display time off, try click the button to turn on the menu, then when it scrolls click either A↑ or A↓. A summarized list will show: W, V, Battery%, Ohms, IQ.

It's more then one press, but it goes by pretty fast.

Thanks for the tip but I was aware of this also. Heh it's just not nearly as convenient as a quick click. Like I said it's a minor gripe and I'm used to it with my 2.5 so will just leave it off. Thanks for advice.

I'm not real sure what you're looking for. If you press the button once you can see the quick menu now. Or, you could turn it off. Are you saying you would like it to have it's own button? Not sure I am understanding you.

For what he would like there needs to be two buttons.

Nice pic. It looks like the P3 TI with the Mt Baker Kabuki.
Thanks Ping, the kabuki is a P3 version with blue rings from HOH, it is also sporting a polycarbonate tank section that I made for it :)

And, it is the satin P3.

The "Nautilus rebuildable" was discussed somewhere in the Radius or Kabuki thread. It didn't fit the Kabuki. :(

And neither did the Triton Mini when I tried. I had high hopes as the coil inserted and began to thread. However, that large positive pin must be in the way because the quartz tank won't fit against the base any longer. Worse than that, every mod I tried threw an error for no atomizer. It appears the coil won't thread far enough to make contact.

I stopped there. I'm not about to try and make pin adjustments when I'd have to change it when I use the Nautilus coil.

The message sort of got buried but I did finally get the TM coil to prime and it does a decent job in a Nautilus tank. I can't get a slight bit of gurgling to go away. It may be my imagination, but the TM coil seems like it produces a slightly weaker, diluted flavor.

So he doesn't want the quick menu to show every time he hits the fire button...only when he wants to see it? Yes, that would require another button.

Hey sorry for late response did not realize questions had been asked.

Well alls I know is that the Evic VTC mini does this. You press the fire button once and it shows your settings. You hold it down to fire and the screen is not displayed. So obviously you do not need 2 buttons for it.

Either way I have already stated it is a minor gripe. I have had my VTC mini before the P3 so had the feature on that mod, and think it is a very cool feature. So I was just saying it would have been nice if it was on the P3 also. No biggie, not like it's a deal breaker or something.

One thing I can't stand about my P4Y mods is there is no stealth mode at all. I'm kind of a set it and forget it kind of person so the screen constantly being displayed just irks me. More of a personal pet peeve I guess. But also as stated before it seems that having the screen displayed as little as possible will definitely help with the screens life. To me the P3 would benefit from that considering they are meant to last a very long time. I have just turned off the screen completely so it doesn't really matter.

Anyhow the stealth mode on the Evic VTC mini imo freaking nails it! When I first used it and realized I could just do a quick click to check the battery life, well that is the bees knees.
