I don't think any KM3 clone is bad. They all work. This isn't that complicated to clone like the KF4. Yes, some aren't as good as others but you'd probably not notice when you're vaping them.

I have 3 from Focalecig that work great. 2 316ss and 1 304ss. I got a black one from FT and after sanding off the coating in the 510 area, it works great too. The Tobecos are very good too. I haven't read anyone post that their version of the KM3 is bad. Different but not bad.

I didn't think my question was that big of a deal. If anyone has bought or knows about a kayfun mini v3 clone sold by someone in the U.S. Id love to hear about it.

Three people answered your question right away. :)

VapeNW is the only US vendor I know of. I don't shop for e-cigs on eBay--I have my reasons. YMMV

I hear you thanks, sounds like most people get them from China.. There are some from ebay .. maybe ill just get one from a U.S. vendor and keep my fingers crossed. Thank you
I can sympathize with you but when you come here claiming that it takes 10 months, well... you sound like a troll because most of us usually get our orders in 2 weeks. Yeah it sucks but it is what it is. Best thing to do is have a few spares. I have 11 mods, 17 tanks and 3 drippers that are mostly ready to go. When I started, I had at least 2 mods and tanks but never felt comfortable so I kept ordering more because I didn't want to go back to cigarettes. I don't like experimenting with new atomizers so when I find something I like, I buy a few (at least) for backups. I used to be a boy scout so I live by their motto "Always be prepared."

I can easily recommend VapeNW because I've always received my orders from them within a week and they're on the west coast. The black KM3 looks really good to me. It might be your best choice. If I were you, I'd order 1 from VapeNW so you get it soon and order a couple from FT or FC so you'll have backups. The 2 316ss I have from Focalecig is very good.

yeah maybe i will go that route. Just wish it wasn't black, Its going to look funky on my mods... I said 10 months as a sarcastic expression. I have literally waited 2 months one time for something from fast tech to come in, but usually it seems around 2-3 weeks on average you are right.

I hear ya. I ordered a SXK KF5 on 6/3 and it just shipped after 2 delays. That will take about 5 weeks. That's why I ordered one from Angelcigs. It was listed as being in stock in the US but shipped from China. I was annoyed but it showed up in a week which was a pleasant surprise. VapeNW usually ships same day and takes 3-5 days.

Sounds like you might slightly prefer the vapeNW's. I wish they would get the silver ones in stock.. all my mods are silver, I don't even own a black mod. Maybe ill check on the classifieds here if someone might be selling a silver one

VapeNW is the only vendor I know who is selling the Kayfun 3 mini clone. I ordered one today and it's shipped already (accepted at usps). I really wanted a silver one but I thought I could play with the black one until I can find the silver. I'm also looking for a Kafun 5 clone too!

I've had good luck with them and they're the fastest choice given your circumstances.

You're gonna have to order the KF5 from China. I wanted the Tobeco version but no one carries it yet so I ordered direct from Tobeco via Alibaba. Minimum order of 10 though. I got 5 silver and 5 black.

I'm hoping some vendor in the U.S. will sell the Tobeco version. Which version is the best at Fasttech or ?
I'm hoping for a glass tank..
Are we talking about the KF5?

I asked VapeNW if they were going to carry the Tobeco KF5 since they carried the KF4 and KM3. They told me they had no plans on carrying the Tobeco KF5 so I ordered direct.

I'll probably get a few more of the minis at VapeNW if they restock in Silver.

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.
