I don't have devises like that, I just save a few of these now and then if they are really cute, not really a lot of them though. :|

And speaking of Kabuki on a Provari:

While traipsing through the Internet last night ... yes, traipsing ... I read that Aspire Cleito glass works as replacement glass on the Kabuki. And because the standard (3.5ml) Cleito glass is slightly taller than Kabuki glass, the coil wicking holes are fully exposed whereas they are partially hidden within the chimney of the Kabuki using standard Kabuki glass.

Furthermore, the Cleito 5ml "Fat Boy" glass is said to work on the Kabuki as well, but man that just looks like a shattered tank waiting to happen.

If that weren't enough, the nautilus X 4ml Extension kit is said to work on the Kabuki. Making it somewhat top fill capable perhaps, depending on how tightly installed?

These glass options add a bit to the capacity of the Kabuki and that's all fine and good. The 4ml extension might change the thermal properties of the vape since the chimney is longer. Enough to notice? ... don't know. And what other tank properties might change by using glass alternatives?

The Kabuki is perfect as is to me ... but judging by the price or at some point availability of Kabuki branded replacement glass, Quartz glass or Polycarbonate, some may look for an alternative.

Anyone actually tried these alternatives?

You are correct. The Cleito "Fat Boy" glass will fit on a Kabuki. Looks weird, but it does work.

And the Nautilus X extension glass works too. I took a couple of pix, if anyone is interested.
Post a pic !!! Can't find one on google with a Kabuki
1) If you get things tightened just right, can you make the Kabuki essentially top fill?
2) Is the extension actually glass or some kind of plastic?
3) How does it change the vape characteristics of the Kabuki?
4) How do you rate your experience with it?
Thanks !!!

1) I don't see how. See the first picture. The Nautilus X coil is good bit larger than the standard Nautilus coil. The Nautilus X extension kit essentially makes the coil taller and changes out the glass, thus doubling the capacity of the tank from two to four mil. The X coil screws into the extension. There are no matching threads between the extension and the standard Nautilus coil. And even if you could make it work, why would you?

I'm one of the few folks in the world that likes the Nautilus X. However, the top fill is not easy. The airflow control is at the top, so when you fill the tank, you screw up your setting. With the black tanks it's almost impossible except in the best of light to see airflow slots. The X does not take a standard drip tip.

For a lot less money the Joyetech eGo ONE Mega V2 tanks aka Eggrolls that Kat and DP are so fond of is a better tank than the Nautilus X.

2) The Nautilus X extension glass and the "Fat Boy" glass are both glass.

3) I cannot imagine that either would make any difference on how the Kabuki vapes. The X extension is going to hold a tad more juice, and I'm guessing the "Fat Boy" an extra mil.

4) I haven't actually tried either. I just saw your message and thought I'd see if the glass would fit.

Enaud, good question. Probably Sweet-Vapes. Three bucks each. If you like the looks and it works for you, that's $7 less than Zen is charging for his glass, which is better quality, of course.

Aspire Cleito 5ml Fat Boy Glass Tube $3.00 - Aspire Cleito, Nautilus - Aspire - Tanks & Coils

There's also a "Fat Boy" for the Cleito 120. You don't want that one. Too wide.

Thanks, I'll grab a couple to play with.
