Got mine in black from Eciggity too! Looks great haven't built it yet either.
Tried to go to svoemesto's website to look for a user manual but they haven't uploaded yet :(
Anyone have a authentic v5 willing to upload the manual?:nun:
If not, that's ok, will wait until the "master" uploads it. Every other kayfun version has a manual. So the v5 should too I guess.

My tobecco from eciggity came in today. I washed it, rinsed it (because you should always do that with any new atty imho)

Built it with ni200, 28g 3mm id, 7 wraps, wicked it with KGD, seems fine. Threading was good, finish is good, seemed like it had all the o-rings in the right places. ;)

Vaping it at 400f on the 4 pips AFC setting, its a much tighter draw than I was expecting, especially with people going on about MTL, etc. It's a tighter draw than my Squape X Dream... I think @Steamer861 said the same thing? I can't remember now.

The tobecco does come with glass and steel tanks, as well as spare o-rings and screws (I think that was asked earlier?)

Seems to wick fine, but with the draw it has IMO it should, there is significant restriction which should be pulling juice into the chamber. (again, just my opinion on the draw)

I'll report back after I've gone thru a tank or two, right now this is total first impressions.

    Also got my 2 tobeco's today, really fast shipping, still waiting for my fastteck SXK to hit the US.

    Built with my normal 36/28 clapton coil, 6/7 wraps on 2.5mm bit, come out to 1.50 ohms

    Even easier to build than the KFMV3, as similar setup on the screws as the kanger subtank RBA, , noticed the wick holes are bigger on the KFV5, so wicked it a bit heavier than my KFMV3's.

    Early impressions is the flavor is actually slightly better than my KFMV3's, I used the same juice in one, and get a bit more sweetness from it. Airflow is not a problem for me, and actually like it the 2 dot setting.

    This might be the 1st tank I stay with the factory drip tip too, I like the look and feel of it, and already got more colored tops coming for them :)

    You're better off watching the various youtube videos though.

    I just asked eciggity if they were going to get spare parts and glass tubes in and they said at this point maybe but they are not sure.
    I received the 5pk of spare glass from FT and they're nice. The edges are flame polished like the Tobecos. I'll have to replace the SXK glass with one of these.

    I got 2 of them from FT today too, they was meant to come with the SXK, but it got held up, and I agree, the glass is as good as the tobeco's, I washed them with the tobeco's and couldn't tell the difference between them when got them out of the bath.

    Yeah my authentic I was using a lot of juice at 2 full turns open and was having to use more power then usual which was because the wick was soaked. Plus on a YiHi they work best if you set the power to just enough to reach the set temp quickly like within 2sec. If you set it too high you get the rattlesnaking and you don't get as good of TC. But that is something I am very used to have used nothing else for well over a year and I love it. Completely different then a DNA or any other TC type device. Any way I went with 1 turn and it is definitely using less juice and less power. I'm at 420F 23J and the flavor is still there not quite as much vapor but it is still really good. I am using SS316L 26awg 6 wraps 3mm .45 ohms. Not sure how the clone works but PB said that the manual said to open in 2 full turns. I still haven't read the manual because between his review and Geekay Vapes review I had a good idea how to use it and no problems there. He said it wasn't that much will have to read it I guess but I've been using it for close to a week with no problems. I am wondering if the authentic glass will fit I will try that before I buy a few of them. Don't know if eciggity is going to get them or not.

    I tried 2 Yihi chipped mods and didn't like that it kept burning my wicks.

    If you need spare glass, FT has good glass.

    I have never had that happen I have 5 M's 2 ML's 2Q's I love them. Have never run my tank dry though and I don't use a dripper. I always use a temp lower then the scorching point of cotton I think normally about 420. But that's just me some people think the DNA board is the best some think the YiHi is. I'm in the YiHi camp but have only had 1 DNA and that was a very poor example. It was when VS first came out with the DNA40 and I believe the min resistance was .1 and nickel was the only wire and you couldn't lock the resistance. That was a PITA. Have thought about getting 1 but went with more SX's for Vapocolypse.
