Demystifying the Kayfun Mini 2.1 ES builds

Received my kayfun Mini 2.1 today. Played around with it a bit. Thought I'd put up some pics to help anyone with the different configurations. It's beautifully designed. Tried it in dripping mode set up and normal mode. I set it up for 0.9 ohms with 30g Kanthal A-1 on a doubled over ekowool wick. At first, in normal mode, juice leaked out of the air hole but adjusting the air adjustment screw did the trick for me. If it's screwed in too far, it'll touching the center pin. Other causes of leaks can be due to the filling valve. Can clean the valve by flushing it with water using the bottle in the kit, making sure liquid can go in but not come back out. When setting up the coil, had to lift the coil a little bit and make sure it wasn't too low on the air duct. Note: The manufacturer suggest that the coil should run diagonally between the screws across the air duct, the tails of the wicks down the post then above the grooves but not in the grooves.

Stats:
Drip mode holds 20-25 drops (34 mm in length), Standard mode holds 2.8 mls (60.5 mm in length) and Long mode holds 6.0 ml (82 mm in length).

Great blog! I have had my Mini for several months. I only use it in long mode, with Thor's Hammer. I have noticed after filling it I get dry hits until the juice level depletes to about 3/4 full. The battery doesn't seem to effect the dry hits, because I have experimented with both fully charged and partially charged batteries after filling it. Once the juice level reaches the clear tank, I estimate less than a 1/4 full. It has a tendency to leak from the air valve. Refilling it till above the clear tank portion fixes the leak. I can only guess the internal pressure is sensitive and requires a minimum level of juice to perform flawlessly. I have tried switching it onto and 18650 mod with higher amp limit to vaporize the juice more constantly to avoid flooding, but it still floods. If I want to finish the juice inside, I open the air valve more, and keep the air hole pointed upwards. I still get an annoying gurgling, and the chamber floods. I can only attribute these sensitivities to the long mode, because I have yet to experiment with the short mode, and drip mode.
