Yeah, looked on eBay too.
Well, it's no big deal. I'll work it out.


I lose juice from the tank when I take it apart to clean the coil and re-wick. The rest was okay, just losing juice, makes a mess, etc.

Did you see that link I posted (a few back) for the VapourArt forum here?

ETA: I bought my Kayfuns from Canada, I just hated to spend extra for shipping for a part.

Oh yes I did. I meant to thank you. I have already emailed the guy from Vapourart earlier this eve. Hopefully he's got good news.
Remember those prayers. That was you wasn't it??

Oh good. I didn't know if you were on a phone if you could tell that was the link. :)
Yes...that was me. :D

To those wanting to get a Pyrex loaf pan/dish...be sure to check your local thrift stores before paying even the price for 1 at Walmart. I frequently stop at thrifts for a variety of things, and at every one I've been to in the last 2 weeks...they've had them! Usually anywhere from only $1-2.50 at the most.

Would save you several bucks to spend on other vape stuff, too!

Got my artistic wire gizmo for coiling wires today to try my hand at making parallel and tension coils. Also got my little wire tamers for my spools and new 60 bottle nail polish tray for my flavors I already have to fit with the 20+ flavors arriving tomorrow. Ordered a badger drink mixer today and will try some crock pot steeping for new recipes since I have a CP and don't want to spend on an ultra sonic cleaner right now. My cyan rx200s mods arrived at their destination so should have the replacement black ones later this week or early next week. *Hopefully done ordering new crap for a month or two until I get my credit cards back under control....

*famous last words.

Something else I'm going to try with my Kayfun...
You know how when you take it apart you lose juice. Well, I've been wracking my brain for something other than a paper towel to plug that hole.
Well, I've got a new package of those expandable ear plugs.
You roll it, place it in the end of the Kayfun, and then it will expand to fit.
I tried one last night, but just to see if it would fit and expand, it DID!!
Now I need to see if it will work in reality.

The thing that might be the thing that won't work it the top of the bell cap.
It had an imprint when I removed it of the top of it, so...I'll have to try.
Anyway, that's the next experiment. ;)
If someone gets to it before me, please post your results, otherwise I will in the next day or so. :)

I messed up a new wick and got stuck with a full tank. I took the fill screw out, then held the fill hole over the juice bottle and blew gently through the drip tip. I think I blocked the air holes with my fingers. All the juice came out and I didn't lose a drop. I had no idea if it would work but it did. That's one way if you don't mind putting juice back in the bottle.

When I take my Kayfun apart I have a little bitty measuring cup I put the nicquid in. Then I can just pour it back in. Of course I've only had mine for a few days and I'm always taking it apart and fiddling with it.

Hey Lori. It's cool, my horrible photos kinda show it working. Just take the drip tip off. Push the Kayfill in, and then unscrew the build deck no worries.

Tbh though, you shouldn't ever need it. I don't pass my wicks through the chimney. I deal with the wicks first. I cut them then place them with juice so they are pushed in against the deck and not too deep to make sure they are not in the channels.
Horrible pics, hope you understand what I mean.

That is the Kayfill inside the kayfun pushed in place of the drip tip.
View attachment 594467 This is where I push the cotton against the sides instead of after the chimney is on. Cut it the right length. Don't push it too tight.
Then put your chimney on. With good cotton, apart from different juice you shouldn't need to rewick till the juice is finished.

Good luck
That looks like a handy thing to have! Thanks for the pics :)

Love it. The crystal trinket is perfect! Loving the purple or should I say concord ;) radius and the drip tip goes very well.
Thanks, I love the color :) That drip tip was one of the last MHM ones, it is so cute :)

Thanks that's a great idea. It's stuff like that I don't ever think of although I'm watching my :2c: at the moment. I've been wanting to go by that thrift store for a while now .... and if they don't have one there's always the dollar store.

And here I was thinking "what else do I need at Wal-Mart"?

Well my brand new Samsung 18650 batt came off the charger and it has a nick in the wrapper showing metal. I never used it and just now charged it but not sure if it was like that or it got scraped going in charger, rats. I have battery wraps but never put them on a batt before. Any tips how to do that ??

Take the old wrap off otherwise the batteries will be a little tight in some mods. Make sure you save the insulating washer from the + end. Some people say you can use a hair dryer but that didn't work for me, not hot enough. I used a paint stripper heat gun. I've even seen videos of people using a lighter. There's a lot of youtube videos needless to say.

One tip. Write the dates or whatever on the new wrap with a Sharpie. Then cover the writing with transparent tape. The wrap material is so slick that even permanent marker will rub right off.

That's basically what I've been doing, or rolling a paper towel and plugging the hole. :)

That I have not done, but that's a thought too. :)
The little ramekin (ceramic) dish I used worked pretty well, then I used a dropper to recapture the liquid.

Thanks good tips. The thought of applying heat to a full charged batt makes me nervous tho! I'll watch some videos :)
