afaik they dont include them, not in single and not in the kit. have 2 kits and 1 single.. no spares. Maybe they changed that? Someone said they add them to the full kit but I don't believe that until I see it.
I wonder if they are in the new black ones, I'll let you know :thumb:

I been having my TFV4 since Monday and I love it. It does guzzle the juice but since I do DIY most of the time, thats not a problem for me. The only issue I have with it is the top cap comes open on its own a few times. Guess I will have to use the Smok ring that came with it to stop that problem.
So far I only used the tri coil that came in it and my sweet spot for it is 80 - 90 watts. I tried it up to 150 and its too hot for my preference. I bought the full kit so still have the quad coil and the RBA coil untouched. I dont mind building coils but the way I am thinking is people are getting long life from these prebuilt coils of up to a month. For the price of coils, $5 for a months usage is cheaper than I can make them. The wire and wick is only pennies but my time is worth something to me and I doubt if I will get the same performance and flavor form a single or dual coil as I am getting from the tri coil and hopefully the quad coil so I am going to just pick up a few packs of coils and spare orings.
What is amazing to me is I am getting better flavor from the TVF4 than my velocity or Mutation or any of my RDA's and I dont have the hassle of dripping. I can vape a tank of Mothers Milk and switch to a Vanilla Custard and within a hit or two the flavor is spot on. I can run the tank bone dry and not get a nasty throat burning dry hit either. Smok really raised the bar with this one.
The only serious downsides I see to this is it does get really hot, the top swings open and I am vaping a lot more juice and starting to cough more. Think I am going to order another one :D (and more batteries, it eats them!)

Amazing tank, try a Uwell Crown with a .25 ohm coil and of course a SMOK quad. You can get the .25 kit on Ebay with tank for $30 shipped.

These tanks IMO are THE best out there these days and I have had several drippers admit flavor is as good as anything they use. The only downsides are they use a lot of juice and needs some power.

Congrats

Couple of questions for you TFV4 owners.

Did yours come with a top o ring? Mine did not but I'm not having any issues with it including leaking but I feel like it needs to have an o ring on the top so I ordered some. The ones that I ordered are clearly the same as what I have on my base but because I never saw a top seal I don't know what that one looks like.

Has anyone had to replace their top o ring yet and is it the same o ring that is on the base? I'm having difficulty getting the o rings that I have in positon on the top cap.

If anyone has any experience with this and can offer any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.

No top o-ring, just bottom. That is the one that can melt. If there was a "top" o ring it would be the little one on the Chimney and those are not sold yet (though they should be).

Your not crazy, everything's good :)

just sharing the love, man - someone else gave me a heads up on em, lol - have 3 pair of em due in the mail today :)

and just broke down and ordered the black tfv4 kit through fasttech (not in a hurry for it, obviously, but still wanted it - and for $32 for the kit, hard to pass up)

As much as I hate Fasttech with a passion, cant beat their price of $22 for the black one. I dont need the kit, already have one of those. Im surprised the dont have the quad or tri coil packs. Plenty on Ni and Ti but no quad or Tri.
