Can you please elaborate on the filling/draining issues with the quartz kit? I was looking into buying one for my Kayfun.
Thanks

If I'm not mistaken, he has taken a few dives in the lake to retrieve various vaping devices already.
I'll try, though it may not be clear. The quartz tank is held onto the top and bottom steel rings with o-rings; the bottom ring has to be "wide" enough at the bottom to hold that o-ring; that means that it slightly occludes the fill hole. If you use a syringe and go very slowly, it's possible to fill it without making a mess. But, unless you have an EXTREMELY fine gauge needle, you can't go all the way into the tank with the needle in order to drain it. I have tried filling/draining with an 18ga needle, which is the smallest I have. POSSIBLY a 20ga or 22ga needle could pass that bottom ring to get into the tank, but it sure would be slow to get any ejuice up a needle that small, especially if it's a high-VG juice.
If you know how to top fill without making a huge mess, then you won't have this issue. It can be done, I've heard, but I was not able to do it without the huge mess and wasting several ml of juice. Bear in mind that you'd have that o-ring to deal with in getting the top steel ring on, with a tank full of juice.

I see, so the fill hole is partially blocked. As for draining, try this: just keep your drip tip on, turn the tank upside down, have drip tip on top of ejuice open bottle or empty bottle and unscrew base. Once you unscrew base, all your ejuice will go through the drip tip to the bottle.
It's odd, but I have two different nano quartz kits and only the one blocks the fill hole partially. The other is totally clear. I think it's my FastTech kit that fits better. Go figure lol... But def a common annoyance.
Hmm... Only one casual mention of Erlkonigin. The only thing I want now is a second Erlkonigin. Great vapor,taste,and draw.
I like it better than my svoemesto kayfun lite plus v2 and better than my magma.

I was feeling that way while I took that pic, I don't bring this one near the water, I have been dropping mods lately haha!If I'm not mistaken, he has taken a few dives in the lake to retrieve various vaping devices already.
Not a reo BTW, I made that one myself.
Thanks to this thread, I just ordered the EHPro Pontus. Hope it works well with my juice.....
I meant I like the Vape on my RTA's[Aqua clone-Authentic Russian better the all the RDAs I had tried[Crown-Stillare-Tobh] That is until I built my Magma the other day-first build on it,first time using Rayon. Now the Magma is a Vape I like alot
Has anyone tried the Kaiser from Yiloong? It's a very similar design to the Rose v2 but it's different enough that you can't really call it a clone. It's also a lot cheaper.

I think the reason that the Erl wasn't mentioned is because the draw on it is a little tight even with the AFC removed. That would be the reason I didn't mention it myself as I like very airy draws for lung hits with my RDAs. Don't get me wrong, the Erl is a flavor beast and my favorite RTA, so much so that I have another one on the way.
Interesting you feel that way. I know we have similar taste in gear.
I like very airy draws and do lung hits myself on everything. I haven't had that experience on my Erl. Wonder if it is a variance in our builds,whether the stainless tank I am using changes it some, type of drip tip etc. I just noticed you were running the standard tank. I wonder if my stainless 22mm is making a difference with the extra width. I will try the standard tank soon and see if there is a variance. I am just using the stock stainless tip. I don't feel choked of on the erl like I do on the Kayfun. I run my Kayfun without AFC and prefer the stock drip tip for flavor, if I use a wide bore tip I can improve the draw, but feel like it loses some flavor doing that.

There's a screw that's supposed to go in to the large filling hole that early reviewers seem to have missed. The small hole is the drip hole. The large hole needs to be plugged.
Thanks! We only found that out after that one video posted a few pages back. Before it didn't seem to make sense. Now all worries are gone.
I think that was in the other thread for the Pontus. I wasn't sure if you were in that or not so I thought I would share here. In any case, I can't wait to get mine.
I was really excited about this one when it was introduced, but ended up buying a Taifun GT instead. I am thinking about picking a Kaiser up as well since I've heard really good things about it. Build quality is supposed to be similar to the Fogger, which isn't the best but it works (though I did melt the insulator in my Fogger a bit, but the kaiser has ceramic which should prevent the issue). It's supposed to keep the wicks very saturated though, which is the biggest problems with tanks and why I just ordered the Pontus instead of another tank. I want the Smok BEC too. My vape budget is killing me.
Was just about to say if i was looking for something in that "area", i'd go Fogger V3 and above first.
