I have heard of small arcing from the insulator under the 510 block on base. Also the clone 510 pin would be suspect. I broke my clone 510 pin during a rebuild. The oem 510 pin fit in my FT clone, cost more then i paid for the atty. I have zero ohm changes with the oem 510 pin installed. Ahh, also put a steam tuners top cap/ drip tip combo on it. Great little atty, now.
Don't they sell all the little parts for these at FT?

    I only saw insulators for the 510, but at the price from FT, a replacement v3 mini is spare everything. I could not wait and got OEM 510 pin from http://www.cremedevape.com/ plus the Steam Tuners threaded mouthpiece. I am photo post challenged this am, so no pix.

    Wrestled with Goldie a little yesterday. 2 hours and 4 Ml of juice I almost retired it. The lower oring on the build deck was getting shredded so I had to replace it. I also removed the air flow grub screw. It was NOT a flat screw head. I managed to remove it with a tiny Phillips head. It was remarkably easy for the grub to move. I didn't put it back and air flow is perfect for me.No fluctuations in resistance. My SXK has effortlessly gone through about 24 Ml. Orings are important as it looks like at least one is not holding up. Anyone know of a place to get SM orings? Or maybe one of you smart guys can bust your caliper out and tell us what size we need.

    I had some issues with my resistance jumping around. I have only done 2 builds in my Kayfun since I got it about a week ago. Both of them have jumped up in resistance after I wicked and filled the tank. My current coil was a 1.3 ohm when I put it in. It is now 1.55 for some reason. Somewhat irritated by this but it hasn't been jumping around since vaping it, just from the initial build. I tried taking my thing apart and looking around on the inside but everything looks "normal". If I were to replace a part, do I really need the bottom screw as well? That doesn't really seem like it'd affect the middle post, unless it doesn't fit the replacement post unless its the replacement screw?

    My kfmv3 has vanished. I'm sure I brought it home, rolled in a napkin (easier to change atty while driving than refilling) and for my life, I can't remember where I put it. I've been searching for 3 hours now :(
    That happened to me yesterday- had just walked the dog, and couldn't find my ProVari/KFL. Was about to go outside and retrace my steps when I saw it sitting in the powder room.

    How long are you guys waiting for delivery after your USPS tracking says
    "Processed Through Facility ISC NEW YORK NY(USPS)"

    No idea--my Kayfun is stuck in San Francisco. :D

    FT shipped within 18 hours from placing the order. Left Beijing 20 hours later. And nothing since.... :facepalm:

    Normally will sit there for a few days, and then start moving again, once hit customs, I get the package in about 5 days.
