Is it #9 you can't get out or is 10 & 11 in the way of getting to it?

It is #2 I am trying to get out. From watching the video that is necessary to get out #10 and #11. #9 Unscrews. But someone else said taking out #2 is not needed to get #10 and #11 out. I can't get any of them to budge.

#2 can stay, take out #1 and you can push out 10 & 11 from the 510 side and get to #9
Also what brand? As EHPro seems to not come apart very easy from what I read here.

Yeah that was the second way I tried after not being able to get #2 out. Would not come out. And yes it is an EHPro. Oh well not gonna mess it up. Was just hoping to get a better cleaning to get rid of a bit of residual machine oil taste. Seems to be fading after the second cleaning and using a stronger juice.

Uh oh. Coincidentally I just ordered a SMPL clone yesterday to use with the Kayfun (although I might put my Vertex on it if I like it more).

Hand to lightly sand/file the bottom of my 510 connector to work in my Praxis (same kinda hybrid top connection as an SMPL but a nasty switch)

Been running my Tobeco for two days now and am really loving it. For the price, this thing is of amazing quality. Vapor is good and the juice control and ability to fill so easily is making me like the design more and more every day.

My only gripe is that I seem to be going through a lot of juice! But that may be due to how much I like this device...

back in the KFL days ;) I bought a couple 22mm clear tanks from ultravaping for 8 bone each... Kayfun Nano Hybrid Tank

the other day I found out the K4 plastic tank is the same :) the k4 tank is about half a mil longer. however, I successfully swapped the 2 types around on both the KFL and K4. they work fine. so, if anyone wanted to put their plastic tank off their K4 on the KFL it's a go... plus we know where to get more of them cheap ;) I was excited because I still use all 6 of my *moded* KFL's in various configs.

Still had a machine oil taste after an alcohol soak and Dawn soak and scrub. I was not able to get the base broken down at all on mine. So I boiled some water and let all the parts soak for about 10 minutes. I had already bought some 91% isopropyl alcohol because I had previously used 50%. Put the base in a swished it around for about 5 minutes. Then put the rest of the parts in and let them soak overnight. Took them out this morning and rinsed and brushed them. Only a very slight smell of oil in the base now. Put it together and decided to use a strong tasting, darker juice than I used the first fill. Hoping that would help deaden the taste. So far so good. No machine oil taste at all. The only bad part is for some reason my JC was jammed and would not open all the way. Took some major fiddling but finally got it to work. Dunno how or what I did but it worked.

I did see a post that brings to light a good point. They are shipping these things assembled with the oil residue still on them. And it is having time to soak into the o-rings on the slow boat from China. I may eventually just replace all of the o-rings with one of the kits that they sell.

Usually jc won't open all the way because your 510 screw and afc screw are screwed inn or backed out too far... Unscrewing the 510 screw a Lillie will fix it

Can't see how that would have been an issue. Before I broke it down to clean again it moved fine. The only thing I can think is the hot water caused the o-rings to swell.

My Kayfun V4 (FT 2018000) has quickly become my favourite Tank. It is head and shoulders above all my tanks IMO. A few weeks in now no leaks no problems of any kind :) The only cons I guess is the tank is kinda small & juice consumption is kinda high. I DIY so the juice is No Problem for me, mite be a deal breaker for some I guess. I have 2 more in the mail a FT2018000 and a Tobeco hope there as good as the one I have :) For anyone considering a Kayfun V4 it's Great IMO :)
The new Taifun is in second the afc and the glass tank are big improvements over the older version. With the AFC wide open it has a perfect draw IMO :)

I've been happier with my black Tobeco than my FT "A" (2018000). I've had to do nothing to the Tobeco and it just worked right out of the box. I had to change the o-ring (16) on the FT but that's the only reason I'm happier with the Tobeco. Both have been working flawlessly. I have another Tobeco (silver) and one from FC coming. The silver Tobeco was shipped from CA but it's been sitting somewhere in Anaheim since the 18th :blink:. No tracking on the FC but it's been 2 weeks yesterday :blink:

How much juice can you squeeze in yours? I get almost 4ml from empty.
