Apologies and edited out the Spanish in my post.

@retired1 - might you clarify something for me (us)? In b) above, you said "Do not post the same topic in several forums (no double-posting / cross-posting)." Does this include posting the same post in several different threads?
What exactly is cross-posting?




I have alternatives for the original Kabuki glass. I bought several from Bedazzled. They are lovely, but the sizes were a bit all over the place. They work, but they certainly aren't all standard Kabuki size.

That's one of the rules that's always konfused me a bit. I'm still unclear on double-posting and cross-posting.

Those who use metal tanks ... what's the drill? ... ever forget about it and get dry hits or you just refill on some schedule?

EDIT: OH ... and does a metal tank reduce capacity at all? ... the original nautilus was/is all glass and metal tanks SEEM to reduce capacity slightly to me is the reason I ask. Could be because my sight line is different when filling too I guess. Usually I look through the side of the glass to see how much to fill ... and looking down a metal tank, I may not get it as full. Maybe

ProVarifuel has springs available, they are cheap, I would recomend getting a few if you plan on using these devices for the long haul. I replace mine occasionally, and have enough that I could answer a distress call in the future if I'm still around here.
how about the spring of the Radius?
i only have one spare,
does it needs as much replacement ,or since it usually stays in place,it's fine?

I didn't even realize the Radius had a spring. Haven't had it open to really take a good look. Changed the battery when I first got it but that was it. Always charged via USB, no other battery swaps. I don't recall ever seeing any Radius springs on the Provape parts site.

i think it's this one P3 Repalcement Spring
and i think that's what i got for a spare, but i'm sure anymore since it's not mentioned there.

I've done it on occasion and if I get busted I get busted. I don't care. I can't possibly know every ECF rule and I refuse to walk on pins and needles around here. If that isn't good enough then they can kick me off.

I wouldn't worry about that one at all, the brass plate is what completes the circuit, and there is more than enough tension to ensure that probably for the life of the device.

As to the other springs, ProVape chose to use their proprietary method of installation, that is why it's a good idea to have a few on hand. Towards the end they were selling off end caps for like two bucks each, a bunch of us loaded up on those :)

The metal tank should hold pretty much the same volume as the glass, when I'm sporting a metal tube on a Kabuki, I run my Pthingie in 350 mode, when the battery gets low, it's time to fill 'er up. With a larger battery, you'll have to figure it from how far down your battery is, or just learn to guesstimate how much you fill your tank on a regular basis, and go from there. There will be a flavor change if you run the tank low, if you don't notice that, you could run the risk of scorching the cotton...

I looked up the springs on Provarifuel but they only have the P3. Pink mule has the classics but they are in Denmark and I'd rather buy them in the US.

Edit: never mind. They have them. I didn't scroll down the page far enough.

Aren't P3 and Classic the same spring? If not, Classic and 2.5? There are only 2 springs I know of in any case.

In any case, I have a bunch of extra springs for Classic/P3 and 2.5/Minis that i bought near the end of Provape. I don't want to start giving them away yet, but if anyone REALLY REALLY needs one, PM me.

I probably have it wrong because I certainly don't know as much about the provari names as you but I thought P3 is one type all by itself and Classic/2.5 is the other. And the minis fall into the latter.

Is that right because all mine are minis.

I think Classic is more similar to the P3 than the 2.5 or Mini. The Classic is the same height as a P3, same fire button location, same end cap, same way the circuit card is installed. Biggest difference in the Classic and P3 is the max wattage. Classic ... 15W, P3 ... 30W. The Classic just looks more similar in outward appearance to earlier Provari ... dimples/raindrops. Also the menu system of the Classic is the same STYLE as a P3, just much simpler and not as many options.

Provari Trivia Question:

If you had one and only one of each and every model and metal and design and finish and color ProVape produced ... how many would you have? ... the customizable Radius counts as one.

Anyone ... Anyone?

Nevermind.

Egads - I'm going to need a bigger abacus.
