Attack of the (Kayfun v4) Clones!

[ricks]

O-rings is where I got mine. 12mm x 1.5mm seems to be a better fit for 16. 18 is 10mm x 1.5mm. I don't think there's an issue with 18, it might just be condensation in the chamber.

I ordered a 5pk of glass from FT. A day later, they have a 10pk for a buck more and it comes with a case

I want the case...

Thanks for that...

What do you use, Metric 70 or Metric Viton? Or am I in the wrong sections completely?

 

[Steamer861]

No! The wicking is one of the strong points of mine I ran about 25 mils on my first wick no flavour loss at all
I would check your wick?

So out of the blue on my second tank fill I am getting extremely muted flavor. I can usually get several tanks on a KFL or Lemo before having to rewick. Anyone else notice this?

You wouldn't keep them???

Nope. I wouldn't have. But to each their own.

I do, I have to rewick every other tank. not because of the wick though, my coil gets gunked really fast on this tank. same juice in other tanks last a lot longer ....

Looks like I'll be able to try fixing the slow leak on my CodeVape KF4 earlier than expected.

I ordered enough that I could swap out all the red o-rings, but I'll probably just start with #16 to see how that goes.

Looks like FT has the black Infinite now.


Infinite Kayfun V4 Styled RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer

The regular Infinite seems to be getting good reviews. But I am really surprised that Infinite is using the same SvoёMesto knock-off box as the RobbotTech and a few others are using. They usually use their own labeled box. Makes me start to think that several of these are all built on the same assembly line.

I do like the extra bell cap that you get but I don't like the fact that it comes in a real box. Tobeco's still where it's at for me. I'm putting mine through its paces before deciding on getting another one in black. No leaks yet, except for when I primed it too much and flooded it (that was completely my fault).

I went thru about 8 tanks before re-wicking (30ml+).

Thanks for that...

Metric 70.

I knew I wanted another Tobeco within hours of getting my black one. I think this atomizer looks better in silver so that's what I ordered. I should have it by Monday. Still don't know where my FC v4 is. It's been over 2 weeks and they didn't give me a tracking #

Saw today that Sweet Vapes has the EHPro "fixed" version with the flat sided nut. I used a Tobeco nut in my version from Sweet Vapes and it's worked out well. I contacted SV about supplying the new nut and they said they are looking into it. OH and the new fixed version is $11 cheaper than what I paid a couple of weeks ago!!!!

You see, I violated my own rule about buying "new" versions of anything. Always buy version 2 after the kinks are worked out...and maybe, just maybe, you'll pay $11 less too.

 

[Marc411]

Yep I've been talking to Dayna and they have a message up on their site for the folks that already bought one that they will get the new nut. The upgrade is in house and I have one on the way.

That floss did the trick (for now), no more leaking.

One thing I noticed is that the groove for the O-Ring is a square channel instead of a 1.5mm radius. Also, because of the flat sided shape of the part, I had to "tuck in" the O-Ring on the flat sides with a dental pick while screwing the base together. I might try using a 10 x 1.6 O-Ring when they come. Maybe that will hold the O-Ring into the grove on the flats while the thicker cross section will make a tighter seal...

I should've checked my mail before posting this. My FC version came today. I figured I'd post a pic of how I broke it down for cleaning.

This was far dirtier than either the FT "A" or Tobeco. The water in the bowl I washed it in turned grey. There was also some metal shavings I had to clean out too. I noticed the JC was hard to turn when the 510 pin was screwed tight. My FT "A" was a bit loose (wobbled when JC was closed) so I swapped some parts and both work smoothly now with no wobble.

I'll bet it was user error. Both mine are perfect.

Yeah ricks, I think you're right. A lot of it was "user error" on my part.

Two months ago, I should have known to put "dental floss" under o-rings #16 and #18.

Thanks for that. You won the "bet"!

 

[Juggernaut666]

Love it, want a couple more now. LOL

KTM you didn't take build screws out, you will never get rid of tht nasty oily taste now!

 

[ricks]

It looks like most of us like the glass tank set up. I might try the poly one some day.

 

[athousandyears]

I would like to use it with the metal tank section but I just don't think I could stand not seeing my liquid level.

 

[Almazick]

For some reason my kayfun started making less flavor. Please take a look

Honestly having a stable glass option is probably my favorite feature of the kf4.

I've never had any atomizer taste like machine oil after my 5 min cleaning process. Ever. That's why I don't understand why so many have problems with theirs. This was by far the dirtiest new atomizer I've ever cleaned and after building this out, not a hint of machine oil.

It doesn't seem to have the o-ring leak and it's working perfectly (knock on wood).
