When I read this the first time, I thought, "when did Trader Joes start carrying ejuice?" :facepalm:

I bet it would be tasty and well priced :) my favourite grocery store by leaps and bounds. Their new cookie butter with marshmallow swirl stuff... The english cheddar with bacon... The graham crackers, actually the entire frozen section with all the cookies and candies...

(Maybe its time fir my dinner?) :lol:

So, uh.....other than Ti being lighter, in what way does it vape better?
Since I had to send my P3 Stealth in for warranty repair due to the preferences reset and issues with the battery readings, I received a response from Provape support indicating Ti is a better conductor than SS (when comparing battery readings for the same battery on the P3 Stealth and P3 Ti and switching end caps to account for the spring pressure). This observation was as it relates to the battery, but being a better conductor would make a more smooth vape, wouldn't it?

Since I have my 2.5 minis for 18350 mode, I use the P3 in 18490. The P3 in 18650 mode is a bit unwieldy for me.
The P3 comes in quite handy in 18650 mode with a Kafun on top, when my gout is acting up, at 6'2" height, it makes a perfect walking stick to take the load off of the painful foot ;) :lol:

That's why I bought several Ti extension rings when they were available early on. I use them on my steely mini Provi's for 18490 ;)

Perhaps Ti is a better conductor, but I still have my doubts it produces a better vape. If my P3 has a high IQ, which it usually does, my guess would be you couldn't tell a difference between the two in terms of vape quality. Ti is a neat metal though and it is much lighter and that certainly has benefits for anyone who feels a SS P3 is on the heavy side.

Not only is titanium lighter, it has a warmer feel than stainless steel.

Wow! I never noticed the screws are different. But they are tiny and I have old eyes.
Another change that occurred around that same time was the rectangular positive contact on the board, I think they used up old parts before using the new ones, because it seemed kind of random which one would be there depending on what color you got...same with the air slots on the top cap, I was reading about folks who got the "new slots" on the top cap, ordered one, and got a unit that didn't have them. All water over the dam now, and completely useless information...

Have any of you tried this or heard reviews.. Crescent Noon - Vaponaute

I'm guessing it would be pretty tasty, and so far the kabuki seems to do well with complex juices. Have hedons bite (the njoy artist collection) in it right now, very nice with some spiced apple cider from tader joes :)
I tried the whole Vaponaute 24 range when it came out. It was a while ago, but Crescent Noon and Night Flight where my two favourites. My only negative about them was I found the throat hit a bit strong. I prefer their 'E-Journeys' line though, Over the Rainbow and Under The Sea are ADV status for me.

Yes, I knew about that. They were putting the rectangle contacts in some models before they changed to them completely. There was quite a discussion (with pictures!) in the ProVari forum.

Not sure of the exact date, but I ordered a mini in November 2013 and it was the regular size, then I ordered another in May 2014 and the screen was bigger.

ETA: I guess it could be magnified, but to me the screen itself looks slightly bigger. There were originally posted in May 2014.

The battery contact on the board looks square and gold plated, also air slots in outer top cap. Lens screws also different.

This is my wrist after using the Stainless P3.

@AstroTurf, I'm done tryin' to splain the Kabuki to Mr. Red. So many of all y'all put up with my interminable questions when I first joined ecf that I thought I'd try. Now exhausted. :facepalm:
PS - I didn't understand the internal resistance convo, either! Read it twice; hopeless, me. :lol:
