    Kayfun Lite - tobeco whistle fix

    In the airflow hole itself. You just need enough to disrupt the clean airflow that makes it whistle. About 5mm is all it takes with wire folded into 3 messy strands. I clipped mine flush and pushed it a tad with an allen key. The wire will come out easily with a dental pick or annealed 26 guage...

    Kayfun Lite - tobeco whistle fix

    I found a simple fix for the annoying whistle in the Tobeco Kayfun Lite clone. Just insert mesh or kanthal into the draw hole to disrupt the airflow and prevent the flute sound. You mileage may vary, but this is what worked for me. I rolled a messy ball of round kanthal with three strands and...

    Wait wut? Amazon getting into the clone market?

    Mine whistles too. Annoying. I used a drill to taper the sharp edges of the intake hole. Still whistles. I'm going to try pulling out the air control screw and using mesh in the air hole to control draw. I'm also not getting much vapor...and I'm using a vertical twisted 1.4ohm microcoil with...

    I have a Gen2 Hcigar clone with the light angel of death. Does anyone have a good method of making the etching black?

    Re-launch of .................... :-)

    Great work! I really like this recipe site! I suspect experienced DIYers will use it as their personal web recipe box more than anything. I'm considering jumping into DIY just to save a few bucks on a handful of easy favorites. It seems this site doesn't offer much for the 'just entering'...

    El Kamino! Good Life Vapor

    I mix El Kamino with Bobas Bounty for my ProTank...just as good as dripping on my mech.

    I can't vape the same tasty sweet stuff I put in my protank from a cotton 1.5ohm coil on an RBA. I notice the flavor is WAY more intense. Any mech guys with RBAs willing to post up some favorite flavors?

    Nemesis/chemesis

    Ahhhh. Screw in the bottom pin at least a full turn then screw in the bottom cap to snug up to the battery. There should not be a gap at the bottom between the tube and the button.

    Make sure you remove the kick ring. It's the slim polished piece just under the top cap. It's hard to tell that it's removable. It will force you to extend your bottom post if it's left in there. What battery are you using? Button top or flat? Can you screw the post in, snug up the bottom cap...

    Nemesis/chemesis

    I think you had to extend the bottom post too far because you left the shiny kick ring in. I didn't see it when I first got mine either. I'd pull it out of the trash and give it another shot man. Worst case you can get your money back by selling it. Hell, I'd pay you fasttech's price right now...

    Nemesis/chemesis

    I noticed the button "sticks" from time to time when pushing from the side. I've found that a 1/4 turn in on the bottom pin makes it better. However, polishing the button assembly seems to fix it permanently, even if you're a little long on the pin. I do plan to buy the solid silver pins and the...

    Clean look. What atty is that and how is it set up?

    Nemesis/chemesis

    The review video shows that it has an adjustable top pin....screw/unscrew to adjust. The real nemesis has different length top and bottom pin screws so you can tune to your battery if the switch is too long or too short. I'm not sure if real parts will work on this one though.

    Nemesis/chemesis

    It's a moot point unless you're buying a used one or you're the owner in Greece or a distributor. This is what happens when manufacturing is outsourced into factories in China where patent laws don't apply. Either way, it is what it is. I'm sure this isn't the first clone and it certainly won't...

    Nemesis/chemesis

    I agree. The US can't win in global open trade, especially when patent laws do not apply internationally. That said, I do think remanufacturers should have some respect....for the folks that put the time into designing the original, and the folks that also buy and sell in the used markets...

    I almost pulled the trigger on the RSST too. I think I'll learn how to build a good coil before grabbing a genesis style atty. Looking at the AGA-T2 for the glass tank, or the RSST for the no-short, insulated wick hole. I'm trying to take it slow. I'd be broke for 3 months if I bought everything...

    I just ordered one with an Igo L. No idea if it was in stock or not, but I didn't get a warning or anything. Pretty stoked. Now for the three week wait... tic tock tic tock...

    The new caravela clone sigelei 8w

    I stopped in a vape shop that had quite a few mechs. Some were chubby [not telescoping] and others were skinny. How can you tell if a mech is the skinny or chubby style? Does anyone know the diameter of both standards?
