Sometimes I think any hobby draws in the eccentric crowd. Everything sells out cause people have to buy 15 tanks a pop. NW will get the silver in and it will be gone in a day and no one else gets a chance to buy it cause some people need 15 kayfuns at once. If they haven't already, they should start implementing a purchase limit on products with sensitive supply. Its like the crab legs at the buffet, the first who gets there takes the whole tray. Human nature is so excessive and gluttonous.
Hey! I only bought 2 black ones from VapeNW :p

I am talking about 10 months waiting on fast tech... I was only asking the question if anyone knew USA sellers besides the NW one that have a quality kayfun mini v3 clone.. Maybe someone bought one from ebay or something else, that is why I am asking. The sellers near me don't carry the coil heads.
Well that's what happens when you live on Mars. 10 months from here to there is probably pretty good, actually. :D

Edit: Oops. Just saw AstroTurf's Mars comment. Jumped the gun.

You could always order the black version and use the parts you need on your SS version.. and amazing it will match your mods :)

FT orders to me about 2 weeks on avg. You have to pay attention to the ship "when" comment, like Next Day or in 7 Days or out of stock.etc...and put into the same ship "time" in same cart and spend $20 ea order.. easy..peasy.. IMO :)

Seriously Sweet Collection!
I love it when the price of the mods are 10x the price of the attys. :thumbs:

What are the two silver ones in the middle?

From left to right: Silo case DNA75, Silo DNA75, Silo DNA200, Hana v200, VS DNA200, ERM+ DNA200 (1300mah 3s lipo), ERM+ DNA200, VS rDNA40, VS DNA40, Cloupor w/DNA40, Hana mini clone with DNA40

My biggest problem with FT is the way the free shipping is handled over there. They may get your stuff together and give it to the shipper, but the shipper may hold it a week before they get a container full enough to justify shipping.
This isn't the 1950's. Everything is shipped via air post by various carriers. China Post usually takes 1-3 days to process packages.

Yeah, fast tech is hit or miss.. I did place an order for a steel tank and ego battery, and its been a few days already and It says will ship out on the 28th. So it won't even leave the door till the 28th.. It will take a long ... time to get to me that is why I am trying to scramble for a decent clone in the U.S. what i did is over paid for a replacement glass from ebay..

Hey y'all haven't been around for a minute, but I recall some discussion here about the resistance changing/jumping around sometimes on these KFMV3s. Tobeco version if it matters. I thought by ensuring a tight connection of center post and positive block was the end-all solution, turns out it's not for me.

Coils lead screws tight and center post tight, what else am I missing? Seems if I take off the bottom plate and 510 pin to access air flow screw, then re-install, resistance goes back down to say 1.48 but after a while I notice a slight different hit and look down- it reads 1.57 or so. Does it on two different mods too.
Almost always goes back to 1.48 just by removing and replacing that bottom pin.

Any ideas? Thanks folks

lol After a week or so you get tired of seeing Origin post is preparing shipment

I emailed them they said they won't be getting the silver back in stock.. I find that pretty weird.. There has to be some China site out there that has this tobecco in silver.. Anyone know where the silver version is sold?

Well, I thought that too, but even used big handle screwdriver and torqued it real good. And still tight when removing it, after ohms have went up.

Air flow grub screw-removed it completely thinking that was keeping 510 pin from tightening everything together but that wasn't it either. It doesn't effect my vape ALL that much really, but these kinda things just irk me sometimes and I just want to figure it out!o_O:confused:
Good suggestions and thanks. I still haven't vaped another atty since these minis, pretty much my vaping bliss when working right.... which is just about all the time anyway

    Looks like I am going to be down to 1 kayfun mini v3 plus, only ever broke 1 glass tank in 3 and half years of vaping, but dropped my kayfun plus glass while cleaning, but didn't smash so thought I was safe, but once I got the tank put together, see I have hairline crack down the whole side of the tank, and of course fasttech doesn't sell extras for it :(
