HB gets it right for sure - Magic Eraser will take any dirt off and most stains.

Obviously I'm not Zen~, but the first solution that comes to my mind is:
buy two Kabukii.
buy one blue 510 version, and buy a P3 version...then, swap out the base and bottom O-ring, and boom. Blue P3 Kabuki.

As far as keeping the Ghost White clean?
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser comes to mind. Those things will take anything off anything!

....so I went to the provape site to double check the price on the 2.5 for a friend and they had a white mini in stock! :wub: I always wanted one in white but I was too slow and they were already sold out when I checked before sooooooooo I jumped on it and it should be here in week or so :w00t:
Good catch, Truli or is that Truli Good Catch? You must have got the last one, because I saw no more minis left, just the 2.5 in white available now. Love the teardrops. I guess I may have wait on the ghost white Radius instead.

So the christening happened today. Getting in my car, removed the Radius and Kabuki from my pocket, lost my grip and in slow motion it fell to the asphalt. Amazingly it landed on the drip tip and leaves, unscathed. How many of us are familiar with that heart dropping feeling, and the relief when you pick it up with no damage at all? Whew!
So does anyone know where I might find a replacement drip tip for the Kabuki? I've grown attached to this style, I like it a lot.
My heart dropped for you just reading about it! Whew.

In other news this week....
Pbusardo still doesn't even have a Radius according to his facebook page so don't expect a review from him any time soon :(

Very surprised Provape didn't send one his way :?:
Like someone was talking about earlier, it appears that Pbusardo has fallen head over heels in love with temp control and mega watts. He did a complete 360 on Vaporshark from the RDNA 40 to the DNA200. Hell, he did 4 hours worth of episodes on the DNA200 technology. Nowadays, it seems like many of the reviewers out there are tripping over each other to laud the "latest and greatest" and the Cloud Chasers are beginning to dominate the internet.

I think the best reviews are what people are going to read in here. In this forum you'll find honest thoughts from people that are the target market for Provape. The love for Provape and for Zen's House of Hybrids on this thread demonstrates that the people in here are the Rolls Royce owners of the vaping world. Thoughtful engineering and unmatched build quality rule the roost here, but unfortunately that ain't sexy enough for the majority of reviewers to harp on.

So even if Provape did send Pbusardo a Radius, I'm not sure that we're the type of vapers he's trying to reach and he may just pass on the review. We'll have to see, someone as popular as Pbusardo could really get the word out there for the Radius.

Phil seems to have taken a break from reviewing these days. First of all I wouldn't had even known about the Radius if I didn't find out about it from his page when he announced it a week before preorders.

He was at one point reviewing a slew of sub ohm tanks and got into a discussion on the amount of juice used for cloud chasing, and his concern about consuming so much. This actually had ME looking at the way I was vaping. I didn't watch all 4 hours of videos. I did watch the video where he discussed 200 watts being too much power, he voiced his concerns about people using too high of wattage to the point of changing the chemistry of the juice, and possible hazards from the wire.

I don't think Phil has gone exclusively Evolv, I think it appears he is extremely busy, otherwise we would be seeing reviews on the D2, some new tanks that have come to market, and of course Radius.

I've had my Black Onyx for a day now and I'm thinking of sending it back. I'm so disappointed...

The USB cover is useless!

Well... guess I'll just have to live with it.

Humorous sarcasm will get you nowhere. Nowhere, I'm telling you. But it was funny. I almost lost the USB cover within 2 minutes of opening the box for mine. It's now in the box for safe keeping. My USB is and will remain nekkid. Yes it will.

What's going wrong with it?
Honestly, I was just kidding about that. Sorry if I came across as serious.

I can't find a damn thing to complain about. I love the Radius, it may be the best built mod I've ever owned. Someone compared the polycarbonate to the handle on a Glock and the Radius feels as solid as a well made handgun and a real delight to hold.

Mine has fallen out while in my pocket twice now. Only a matter of time till it's lost. Not that I care. I must say though, now that the honeymoon is over, my radius will probably be up for sale soon. Just doesn't offer me anything new and locking the fire button is a damn chore.

I had my Radius on my lap when I stepped out of Toyota 4runner, I'm from the US, so I stepped out with my left leg first. I felt it slide down the inside of my leg, :eek: but I didn't hear it land :?: I peeked down to see where it went, and it was sitting on my running boards, which has a soft rubber on them. :oops:

Something else neat, well at least for me :rolleyes:
My thumb is not only big enough to press both the + and - buttons but I can press all 3 buttons at the same time with it. :?: Making my Radius easy to lock, unlock, turn off, and turn on with just my thumb :)
I'm also getting good at unscrewing both battery screws at the same time ;)

Why do I feel the need to see a picture of your magical thumb? :?:
