Tell me about it! I was waiting for your report on them if they were any different than the first run we got and by the time you got yours they were already gone!!
Ricks - the only reason Vapor Range was selling them that cheap was to get rid of them to make room for other stock so I dont think theyll be back. Probably needed to make room for those new sigelei and Tobeco subtank things they just got.
I finally got around to replacing the #16 o-ring with a 12mm x 1.5mm ring. I've had absolutely no leakage at all since doing that. I ordered the Viton set from Orings and More just because those were heat and acid resistant. It's actually nice to have a KV4 that doesn't leak in my pocket or put a film of juice on my hand while vaping. Since changing #16 with the larger ring it's been dry as a bone and vaping nicely.
Has anyone tried one of these yet
The way it reads airflow is now controlled with the ring now instead of through the bottom
Ephro as well as Tobeco say the same
Ehpro:
Kayfun 4 RBA (Clone)
Tobeco:
Kayfun V4 RBA (Clone)

i don't know
But Ive seen the same wording on more than one place on the net
I ordered one so I will find out

Well, the wording IS a bit ambiguious. They say "It shares some features with previous version, but it has its unique features". I believe they're referring to the KF Lite, Lite plus, etc. versions and not to previous versions of the KFv4.
They say "Adjustable airflow valve. By rotating the valve to adjust the airflow, it will be much easier for users." Technically, turning the air control valve (screw, in other words) could be considered "rotating" it- I think it's a matter of semantics and that there's no material difference in the way the juice and air flow are controlled. But I'll be watching to see what you find!

If they said "new air control feature is double the air flow" they would have my attention. As it stands, open all the way is open all the way, I don't need to adjust that. But just me maybe.
I wanted one of the Ephro's anyway to compare to my Tobeco's
So if its a new adjustment great if not Ill have my comparison

I got the Ehpro in today
Put a 2mm .9 coil on it with Japanese cotton wick
Just personal opinion
It is different from the Tobeco
It seems to heat up more while chain vapeing
Air flow seems to be a little better on the Ehpro
No leaks what so ever
Seems to feed juice about the same
the airflow screw is the same as the Tobeco so no difference there
It did have the resistance problem many have talked about
So I bent the first coil of the spring closer to the post and that seems to be cured
no dry hits just like the Tobeco
So I guess it will work for me once I get the heat problem worked out

I bought 4 Kv4 at that amazing price plus a bunch of extras (bell cap, parts bag, sub-ohm kit - that I doubt use but extras are awesome!) and they work perfectly! Post pics soon on my new to_me black Provari! I r stoked! The bell cap is gorgeous! Came frosted but I used toothpaste and polished it up - crystal clear now!
Now I am looking for the all black Kv4 - only Infinite or Tobeco - I dont like Ehpro. Anyone know of a US seller that has one for a god price?

This did work the resistance is steady now

This problem is strange
The Ehpro is completely different to the tobeco
First I opened the air flow all the way open still heated up and started dry hits after 3 or 4 long hits
So went to wicking had to stuff Japanese cotton into the coil and cut it to just barely above the deck
Over heating and dry hits stopped
Now it works fine
With my 4 Tobeco's the cotton has to be touching the deck to stop leaks and stop dry hits
I hope this helps someone with problems with a Kayfun 4 seems like every different brand has different problems
Especially the clones I have

The Infinite is well made and looks great but that bell cap requires you to fill it from the bottom with a syringe. If it had a top fill option then that would be the bell cap I'd put on every device it would fit on.
