Wicking Kayfun Style RBAs

I got an original kayfun Lite+ and loved it so much that I got a R91 and an EHpro clone too. At first I had trouble getting a 2mm coil working without dry hits. I use a 2.5mm coil and they all wick perfectly. Endless chain vape of 100% VG. I even use VG based flavorings and undiluted VG, so my liquid is very thick.


1) I use 2.5mm coils. Don't block the air channels, but if that doesn't work try a bigger coil. You can cut extra wick to the length of the coil so it doesn't tuck into the liquid channels. Air needs to be able to reach the channels for the vacuum to work properly, and it's just easier for it if it doesn't have to go through a bunch of liquid and wick.

2) The wick must go all the way to the bottom of the deck right next to the liquid channels.

3) Lower your volts, increase coil resistance, or try a different flavor. The Kayfun amplifies taste. It's possible that you're just running it too hot and burning your liquid. You may have never noticed before because you just couldn't taste it on other tanks.

4) Don't twist your cotton, I just lightly pat it down and pull just enough of it through the coil so that it goes through without having to hold the coil in place. It doesn't fall out, but will move easily through the coil when tension is applied.

5) Get in there and clean the oil out of it. They all have residual oil that will taste like a burnt/dry hit when you get them, even the genuine KFL+. It's hard to get out and takes a good amount of cleaning to get it off.

I can see the liquid channels, so I know they're not blocked.

The wick goes all the way to the base by the liquid channels.

Might want to make sure that not too much of the wick touches the upper deck, otherwise you may get flooding.
