Remove the drip tip from both a KFL and a K5, set the KFL air screw flush with the base, and the K5 AFC to the first setting, then compare.

The draw is about the same.

So, a really open KFL is equal to a really tight K5.
Thanks for that info JW. I have an original KFL (nonadjustable airflow) and a KFL Plus (air flow screw removed) and both are similar draws and perfectly fine for me. So if the lowest setting on the K5 is similar then it should work for me.

Really? That's interesting.

Dam, been waiting for your review, glad you got MOST of it. Second time this has happened to someone, they should pack them better!
There was no 'packing' at all for the glass. It was just 'kept' in one of the boxes. The entire package/shipment box was wonderfully and securely packed tho. Enough cushioning material. Been simply unlucky I feel.

I don't think luck has anything to do with it... it's a sign, that tank doesn't want to be with you. Just ship it to me please, I'll take good care of her :D

Looking forward to your review!

In the German forums, we have a tough discussion on how the airflow below the coil affects the taste. Many vapers are convinced that a stronger airflow produces a better taste. (until now me too)

I wanted to find out which of my Kayfuns tasted the best. The Kayfun 4 with the 4S kit? The Kayfun Mini V3 without airflow screw? Or the new Kayfun 5 on its 2* setting? I would have expected the following "taste"-ranking..

1: KM3
2: K4 4S
3: K5

I therefore wicked them all three with the same coil (Kanthal 0,35mm, 7 x 2,5mm =~ 1Ohm)

Coil:
kay4_Wicklung_4_small.jpg

I used the candidates parallel with my every day liquid for a week at 18W.

Candidates:

But astonishingly the K5 and the K4 tasted more or less the same, while the taste of the KM3 could not keep up with them. (It was still very good though and if I had not had them side by side, I would have never been able to notice a difference ;-))

There is nothing more subjective than taste :)

Very interesting! Thanks.

How do you find the MTL experience on K4 compared to K5? Some strict MTL people say that the 5 is too airy for them, others claim that the airflow can be adjusted to K4's levels. I'm so confused.
