I've started having flooding problems with one of my kfl+. Does that mean I need to rewick? I've only run a tank or two with the current one.
What hardware are you using to get the best out of your aroma juice ?

Contrary to most people, I found the kayfun (any variety I tried) to be leaky pains in the ..... Some tried to tell me it was User Error. Perhaps so.
All I can say is I like my equipment to cater to me, not the other way around.
I just started having problems with the one and wonder if the liquid in it is too thin.
It could be, I vape thin juice too. My problems presented themselves with the temperature fluctuations that are part of my daily routine. A couple hours at 40 degrees and then immediately to the 80s and 90s. Kayfuns don't seem to like that.
you might want to try a re-wick Hitt. If that isn't helpful, perhaps adjust the airflow grub. That topic was discussed a lot in the Kayfun Lite part 2 thread and a few were comparing it to the "straw" (vacuum) phenomena. Darned if I could find it for you though (or remember it either). Always try the simplest measure first.
I actually thought of that and opened up the airflow a little. It seems to have taken care of the problem. Thanks for the help. The VG I'm using for my DIY is pretty thin for VG. I've had no issues with the redtail liquid.
I've gotten quite used to the kfl+ attys. I don't go thru a ton of liquid so I don't usually have to rewick very often unless I'm changing flavors. It would be nice to be able to rewick without emptying the tank but it's been a solid device for me and I like having the airflow control on the bottom.
Does anyone know anything about the zen zna30? I was looking at one for a good price. Just not sure how good they are.
Sorry Hiit, I don't. Some months back, I was researching the Vapor Flask but that kind of fizzled. I've been all about the Reo & my search for another mod ceased. I have 3 now, one for each favorite flavor. I keep a KFL & WorkHorse in my day bag in the event I need a back-up. Haven't needed one though.
Thanks anyway Robin. It's just something I was thinking about. It goes from 7-30 watts and will go down to I think .4 ohms. Kind of a neat design how the battery tube is on the side and has a top button.
I got another kfl lite plus v2 and am having a problem filling it. I had just put in a new coil and wick and had the one I was having problems with fixed so I ordered another one. For some unknown reason the liquid doesn't want to go thru the fill hole. I drop a couple drops into the hole and it just sits there. I've tried opening and closing the airflow screw but it makes no difference. I did notice on this new one that the center post screw looks bigger and the drip tip has a smaller hole. I'm almost to the point of scrapping this one. I wonder if I just got a bad one. The other two are working fine now.
Wish I could help. Haven't had this issue. I'm assuming you are using a blunt tip needle bottles to fill? If it doesn't get sorted, maybe check the Kayfun Lite Plus 2 thread.
Thanks robin. This latest one is definitely from a different manufacturer than the other two I have. I just can't bring myself to spend the money on an original one. I contacted the seller to see if they'll do anything about it. If not, I'm not out much. I can always keep it for spare parts.
I got a meaningless answer from the seller. I don't think they are gonna do anything. That's fine. I cleaned it out again last night and got it working. I think that maybe something was stuck in the fill hole. Now this morning the one that was leaking before leaked again. I think the problem is the liquid that I'm using in it. I have orange punch in an identical unit and have no problems. I've been running a diy liquid in it that is fairly thin so I'm going to try something else in it and see how it works.
Sometimes I found that inspecting the orings might also help with the leaking. The only time I had leaking was when I dropped my mod and the threads on the KFL got mixed up (for lack of better terminology). I untightened, inspected, re-tightened (just snug. Not wrenched) and all was good until I dropped it again

Robin, I'm not sure why but I figured out on the one with flooding/leaking problems that if I let it stand up instead of laying my pv over on its side that it doesn't leak. The other two never leak. I would think it's an oring problem but it doesn't make sense.
Robin, I found a super deal on one of the zna clones and grabbed it. It is a heavy mod in 18650 mode.
Tis always fun to have a new toy! Cool Hitt! Hope you're having a good time with your new copper lazer.
