This stone resin from amerpoint is really nice....that's the calibri I believe
@qorax Those are flat out gorgeous. Mechanical mods scare me though. A simple user error from inattention and things can go south quickly. But I see the AmerPoint has an electronic board that provides some safety, if not regulation.View attachment 812997

My questions are, is there a way to turn the AmerPoint off ... such as 5 button clicks ... or must the battery be removed for safe storage / travel? Is there an electronic "time-out" if the button is held for more than say like 10sec? Is there an electronic shutdown feature if the battery becomes too warm?
DISCLAIMER: I find that the AmerPoint site describes the safety features as, "board has special overdischarging and reverse polarity protection". Just wondering if those are in fact, all the safety features.

(1) Mech mods are as safe as the user wants them to be. If we know our Ohms law, if we know about battery safety, if we keep them switched off when not in use, if we don't use counterfeits (device as well as the battery) and if we handle them with care ~ there is nothing to worry about. I have been using mechs from the beginning of my journey - and continue to do so till date, I have no issues with them - as well as no fear.
(2) No, the Colibri Stone does not have 5 clicks On / Off. I wish it had. However, just unthread the bottom base plate by 1 turn and you disconnect the circuit.
(3, 4) Yes, it has a time-out feature. But not 10-secs, quite a bit more. However, good enough to protect against thermal runaway situations.
(5) Yes, those are all the safety features. Remember, it is not a regulated device (tho they make one with DNA-60 / 75 too) and the intention was to make a slightly safe but extremely compact mod, which is also a great looker. For a MosFet device - the Colibri Stone is the smallest out there. And a fantastic piece of art. However, as you correctly pointed out it is a mech ~ and mechs are not for everybody. It needs safety inputs from the user.
Similarly, regulated mods are not for everyone. It needs safety inputs both from the user and from the Chinesium that the chip that has the built-in safety protections typically is made of. Protections, that, while they might work and usually they should work, do not offer any kind of protection against various many types of battery related risks that a lot of people don't even know what those risks might be. Thinking it is "safe" due to their being frequently marketed as such. The usual fear mongering against mech mods being a prime example of why this same marketing strategy keeps on working better than a charm. Also, a regulated mod user needs serious painful hard work to get this same user to want to even consider to learn about the fact it too needs safety inputs from the user, and why. Let alone get the user to actually learn about that particular kind of stuff. I digress, but I'm only doing it for the safety inputs, not doing it for the fear inputs.

Very nice. That's from Fakir's Mods in Turkey isn't it Qorax?
A good dvarw-ish morning to you all ...
They are Kabuki tanks made several years ago by House of Hybrids (The ZFO) specifically for ProVape. The Kabuki accepts Aspire Nautilus 1.6 or 1.8 ohm coils. The adjustable airflow can be more open on the Kabuki than an original Nautilus tank. The Kabuki atomizer on the left has ProVape proprietary P3 threading and fits only a ProVari, while the tank on the right has legacy 510 threading.
