Currently rebuilding one.
As I’m building, I keep thinking over and over how easy it is for me, and how a beginner might struggle.
As I installed my coil, I realized that I couldn’t remember if anyone had mentioned a certain trick.
If the wick droops or touches the deck, juice has an opportunity to get into the airflow...and to avoid that, I use the coil legs themselves to keep the wick off the deck.
I accomplish this by wrapping the coil leg around the outside of one (just one) of the deck hooks (the little arms that stick up next to the deck screws, shaped like an upside-down “L” or a right-side up “7”)...I don’t do both, but have no scientific reasoning not to...other than a suspicion that it MIGHT increase resistance due to coil leg length.
Here’s a picture (I’ll apologize for my lack of photography skills):
Then I just tuck the cotton into the well, and that “outside” coil leg keeps it in place, and off the deck!
I can upload more/better photos, if these turned out poorly!
Sorry if this is redundant info, but I try to treat each build as if I’m showing a newbie how to get it perfectly situated.

It's almost all the way in. I like the tight draw, so I close it all the way off and just back it out a little bit. So there's plenty of space from the end of the positive post to the set screw. Thank you though.

Dusted off the old Prime. Haven’t used it in a long time since I got the new Lite. My goodness it seems to big nowadays. And I remember when I first got it in 2017 it seemed so small.
The new Lite has us spoilt with its compact size and functionality. Such an elegant little tank compared to some of the kayfuns from years ago.

I do prefer top fill but it's not like it's that much better than bottom fill. I'd rather not have the exterior air flow either. And the Prime is small capacity vs longmode on the 19. But the Prime still vapes great. As good as any of the Kayfuns if not the best.
We talking Primes? Might be my favorite KFL if I had to pick a favorite. The KFL2019 is a nice size on the Dani mini though.
One for dress up with the Wave tank, and one for capacity with the extension tank.
And those 'beauty rings' from Creme de Vape just add such a nice look sitting on top of the full size Dani

Just picked up the not so new kayfun 19 and have to say this is an amazing tank. Easy to wick and the vape is probably the best I've ever experienced.
Couldn't be more pleased!

Hi guys, have been reading through this forum, learn a lot for my beloved kayfun lite 2019.
I also using steam tuners kit topfil, Imo it's good kit.
However, I also read on this thread that for the dome kit extension.. it will give more cooler vape feel, is it true? Because I do feel this kfl has a warm vape.
I am even using TC with nife wire to limit the temp.
Anyway.. need your feedback before I invest to dome kit. Thank you

Its been years since i been on the site here...still love my kayfum mini3..but its getting old..time for a new Kayfun..
Can you recommend one of the newer ones thats vapes as well as the kfm3.....I was looking at the Prime or the KF lite. Definately like a tight MTL vape and use high nic.
Thx

What ohm coil you using? I don't know about the dome but I started out at .88 and it was warm/hot. I'm now using 1,3 and it's a pleasant vape.
Hey SMT. Both the Prime and KFL19 will give you a similar vape vs the KFM3. From there, it's a matter of what is important to you.
Prime has an external airflow. KFL19 has internal. Some like the ease of adjusting airflow on the Prime. Harder on the FKL19 cuz you have to adjust from the bottom. Personally, I prefer the KFL19. How often do you have to change airflow?? Plus it takes less room which helps make the KFL19 more compact. Prime is top fill. KFL19 is bottom fill. I prefer top fill but it isn't a killer to do bottom fill either. Again, with no juice control, it allows the KFL19 to be even more compact. The KFL19 has a longmode kit that will increase the juice capacity. I think the Prime has an extension too but not sure of its availability anymore.
I second everything Bronze says below!
I’d also like to add:
The KFL-19 is capable of tighter airflow than the Prime. So you can really fine tune the KFL-19 all the way down to ZERO airflow, whereas the Prime has a bottom setting and that’s as low as you can go...
Personally I find the Prime is not capable of giving me the MTL airflow I prefer, but it DOES give me the restricted lung hit airflow I like, so it still stays in my rotation.
SteamTuners has an AWESOME top fill kit for the KFL-19, although top-filling isn’t a deal breaker for this Kayfun.
However, I DO have that Top-Fill Kit on every one of my KFL-19’s...its a convenience thing for me.
Overall, owning all three atomizers mentioned (KFM-3, Prime, KFL-19), I’d say the KFM-3 and Prime are closer to each other in capability. The KFL-19 is simply capable of tighter airflow.
All three vape as perfectly as you’d expect a Kayfun to vape!
fantastic thx for the inside info on the replies.
Which of the 2 (lite/prime) would you say the wicking is easiest/more forgiving...my km3 is finicky if it isnt wicked just right...

THIS
All Kayfuns wick equally easy...though I have noticed that some like more cotton than others...and I wick them so automatically now that I can’t remember which ones do.
But, the overall trend is: They’re Kayfuns.
It will speak to you very clearly and let you know how much cotton it likes!
