Man I hope you 2 guys are right. I got so mad reading thet email! Repeating in my head "cheap skate, try to save $4! Serves you right, now you'll get the focal order first!" LMAO.

I'll be sure to post my experiences - all friendly like! ;)
They ship fast but it's always taken an extra day (3 instead of 2) to get to me from them with Priority. I don't have experience with first class from them.

Looks good to me. My authentic doesn't really leak more seeps and I think it is cause from a little vapor getting back to the air inlets and condensing and a little seeps out of the bottom of the tank through the hex area. I have put about 70-80ml through it and it's not anything big just wipe it with you finger and it is definately not straight juice more like condensation from the vapor. If I could remember to take my finger off the fire button and keep inhaling I don't think it would happen. Going to clean it today and check the Orings but I ordered 2 of the SS Tobecos. One thing I would say to do is when you get it take it apart and remove the 510 pin so you can get the deck completely out. There are 3 O rings 2 you can get to without taking it apart 1 you can't and lube it with some VG. It will work much better.

While your at it lube all the O rings cleaned my authentic and thats what it was a combo of condensation from vapor. Wiped it all out and relubed the Orings make sure you get the ones on the topcap there is an Oring inside where the chimney fits in and thats the one that KTM had the problem with. That Tobeco looks great in the review can't wait.

I just replaced the lower o ring where the AFC attaches to it. No leak or condensation.

Be sure to lube it up or the AFC ring will take a chunk fof the ring and it'll be smaller again.
I also replaced my #8 o-ring but with a 12 x 1 mm instead of the 10 x 1 mm that it had on it and is listed by the authentic as 10 x 1 mm.
Before I couldn't fell it being there, good now.

Sorry for being a noobie but does anyone know if the o-ring sizes listed are inside or outside diameters? Thanks......looking to buy some spares before my kf v5 arrives :unsure:

Nope. If youeed a tighter draw, try a drip tip with a smaller hole. I have a drip tip with a 2.5mm hole and it tightens up the draw.
Did that to my kf4 since I'm missing the contact spring, using a pt3 drip tip. It helps a lot but it's still airyer than I'm used to.
