Hello all,

I am trying to get a hold of an authentic kayfun V4 but as I'm sure everyone is aware they are sold out for at least another month probably more. I think I may have found some for sale on amazon but I'm terrified of spending $180 and receiving a sub par clone. Would love some thoughts and opinions on this. Its telling me I cant post a link but you can find the the tank in question by searching genuine kayfun V4 on Amazon.

Just some background, I currently use a KFL clone that works very well for me however there has just been minor things here and there (ie. infrequent flooding/leaking, and a striped terminal at one point) that my buddies with authentics have not. I'm deployed oversees at the moment so anythng I have shipped takes forever so I really would like to get it right with one order and be done with it until i get back. Thanks guys.

Yeah, join the V4 boat. Feel this is the first version with any significant improvements over the 3.1. Am on 3 "notify me" lists, and had to settle for the clone, in route, last seen in the Netherlands. Seriously. :D Was surprised I was sleeping and let this one slip past the radar.

Will have to see what his ex-partner does with the Russian. Hopefully the clone will show up by me B.day. Frak, for $16 figured it was worth the clone gamble. Would be highly suspect of so called "authentic" Kayfun's on amazon. And if they are, usually can go to the suppliers site and order from them.

Though if you want a fraktastic rba tank system, would highly recommend the flash-e-vapor V3 out of Germany. Tis a top contender, and truly a must have for any Vapers collection. Make sure and get the optional dripper cap, so can drip or tank it.

The only thing I have that can out purrform the flashi, is the Gus Estia, out of Greece. Though it does take tri-coils to do it.:D

A cheap clone isnt a huge gamble. Go to fasttech look for the best reviews and spend 20$ or so on a V4 clone. I cant imagine you not getting your moneys worth.

Way better than risking getting the same thing for over 100$ when you are expecting authentic.

You can always buy authentic when they are available and probably a little cheaper.

The tobeco clone is pretty nice, a friend who owns a vape shop (in Richmond if your close to there) gave it to me to mess with some. I pulled the air adjustment screw out, and have vaped a few tanks through it with a single coil. No leaking and works as expected. I like it better then the V3.1. Would have liked to gotten an authentic, but couldn't find one either.

The Russian isn't made by anyone's "ex partner". The maker of the russian was never affiliated with SvoeMesto in any way shape or form. SvoeMesto is run by 2 Germans and a Russian....the same 3 guys that started the company. The Russian is made by Kebo....he's an ingenious cloner...not an ex partner.

Umm, no, kebo was part of the design team that helped develop the Kayfun 3.1, and therefore a co-owner of the original design concept. The two companies tend to feed off each other's idea's, so one could say the Kayfun lite plus is a clone of the Russian 91%, for that matter.
