What would be kind of nice and I know I would get one. A 510 adapter with a tapered edge so I can flush mount my z atty pro. I like to break in my new coils and wicks on a mechanical so it would be great

Unscrew the bottom skirt off the Z-Atty Pro ( its held on by 1 drop of glue ) then unscrew the skirt and you have a Z-Atty U.. Then when you put it back on your Provari, Just screw the skirt back on.. Simple..

Thanks but I don't really want to unglue anything from my z atty. I'd rather use a 510 ext or just machine the zen 510 adapter I have. But I thought I'd make the suggestion

kick rings are a challenge. I'd have to make it relatively large. The male Z2 thread doesn't have enough room 'inside' of it to fit a Kick. So, I'd have to make the male threaded portion of the adapter stop at the top of the device then kick, then ~.27" of female thread for the head to actually screw into. Overall, it'd end up adding almost a full inch if not a full inch to the length of the device to do it that way.

I think people would be turned off by that.

This is a 18490 tube with a 18350 battery notice how much you have to turn the switch out plus with all the battery rattle occasionally (because the kick has to move up and down in the tube) you get misfires

holy crap.... that is not what mine looks like at all. The kick doesn't have to move up and down the tube either...

I have a tiny gap between the switch and the battery tube when I put a 350 flat top in there with the kick. I just put the switch in then drop the battery in the top, press the kick in and screw the head on nice and snug then I'll unscrew the switch just a smidge and tighten the head more until the little 'gap' is balanced. The kick shouldn't be sliding up and down in the tube, everything should be all snug with a kick+Battery.

When I tried it at home I used to kick clone but when I was on the road and the picture I took was with an actual kick at a vape shop here in North Carolina.

Switch on first battery in top (but I use button top aw because also fits in all my provaris) then device. If I go any tighter it fires. You have no battery rattle and its bone stock that's odd

steamturbine, the fancy Genesis style?

I'm not planning another genesis style device for a little while. the Zenesis is 'out there' and available so, I didn't see a hole in the market to fill there. I was tryin to avoid duplicating products other manufacturers make (for now, pretty much just Zen) just so we could broaden the market instead of directly competing with one another within the system itself.

If you want, PM me your reasons for wanting a steamturbine over the Zenesis and I'll start looking at options.


No ones said Kayfun yet, I expected that to be the first thing mentioned lol. So I'll mention it :p I'm working on a tweak / accessory that will enable flush mounting of hte Kayfun/Russian devices onto a Zen device. I know a lot of folks were upset about the 'gap' when a Kayfun/russian was put on a Z2 510 head. I'm tryin to get ahold of a Kayfun light or a Russian 91% to test with, but those things are hard to come by!

What ever happened with the kayfun flush mount idea? Would love to flush mount a kayfun on the ZNA I bought.
