So first thing I noticed when disassembling my new KM3 is the spacers on the insulator. I don't know how well you can see in the photo (my camera sucks) but the positive block on the deck is now pegged on the insulator so it cannot twist. Notice the spacers on the lower half of each vertical slot. This is the only difference I see between my first KM3 purchased in February versus this one that arrived today.

Well now I want another one with the revised isolator! Looks like another HHV order coming soon for me :)

I wish I knew what to say. Your experience is running contrary to the masses for some reason. I'd be happy to build it for you if you send it to me. sometimes when the thing is in working condition you can see how it is done. Think about it. and who knows, I might see something askew with your KM3.
Yeah... That sucks. Hopefully you'll get him all sorted out one way or another.

This thing is easier in coils than any other device I've used bar-none. I have absolutely no idea why... But (for me) I've been going twice as long between wick changes/dry burns.

Again - no idea why, but this has been my experience. :)

Just looked it up...

"Kayfun Mini V3 - insulators kit including all 3 insulators.

With improved deck insulator to prevent short circuit by holding the positive block in place."

Wow, I just noticed something strange on that site - the KFMv2.1 is the same price as the KFMv3. It actually came down from 119.99. :shock: Tells you something about their resale value.

I put my Caramel Apple Tobacco in the new KM3 and it lit up just as I expected. I honestly cannot detect any flavor drop between my dripper and this KM3. So I'm pretty much set having a KM3 for each of my top two flavors. I will continue to use my drippers for the Apache. That is a major coil gunker. :)

I just checked and HHV is down to 7 units in stock. It was 11 after I ordered my KM3 on Sunday morning.
One of those is mine! :grr: :pervy:

I've had CAT in one my Lemo2 for about a week and been really enjoying it, after steeping for over a month. I'll have to try it in the KM3, I might have order another :D

I still get 0 flavor and the wicks burns by the end of the tank. It looks saturated too, weird. So spaced 2.1mm coil didn't work either. I am running out of options. I think I will sell this.

Any chance you would be able to post a picture of your build? I don't own a KMv3 yet, but I have put thousands of builds through multiple KFL+s. What type of wicking material do you use? How tight is that material pulled through the coil?

That CAT will continue to evolve for a few more weeks.

I was gonna ask the same questions but d.g. is about ready to throw his KM3 in a lake. When it gets to that point then it's time to do a build for him to prove it will work. :)

I went back to read his posts. The only reasons he would be getting burnt hits would be that there's not enough juice reaching the coil before vaporization = wicking (which can be a variety of reasons), an issue with the actual coil, or just a poor e-juice (cheap VG and/or sweetners). 11watts isn't too high to be using with a 1-1.5ohm coil so besides these few possible issues I wouldn't know what other problems could arise. You are a gentleman and a scholar to offer such help. In that case, I would also like to make an offer to take his KMv3 off his hands if he is adamant on getting rid of it prior to swimming in a lake LOL!

Yeah, I'd like to see him get that thing working. It works for the rest of us so it would be nice if he could enjoy the thing. Definitely a wicking problem of some kind. Sometimes the best solution is to just have someone else build it. Then he can see the differences. One thing about the KM3 is you can't see your wick when you stuff it down the well. This is unlike the KFLs where you could see all around your wick. Working blindly can be more of a challenge.

Yes , like others have stated, a pic might really help out. Maybe one of your coil , mounted without the wick and one wicked but not primed. Also what mod are you using with it? Also what percentage of pg/vg? 99 percent of the time it is the tank/build, but there is a tiny chance it can be from something other. I once had a mod that had a wonky 510 and it wasn't making a good connection with the tank, thus creating an unstable resistance. The mod was reading the resistance much higher and because of that, the power going into the tank was like double. I could hear the wicking material literally sizzling because of this... anyways when I used the tank on another mod it didn't happen or if I adjusted the tanks positive pin out slightly further it didn't happen. How is your resistence as you fire? Is it stable as you look at the mod? Anyways its a long shot but just stating another possibility. About juice, any should work fine unless it's a thick 100 percent vg, in that case it may not be wicking fast enough........anyways I'm sure you have seen many videos on the km3 and know what your doing but I will be posting my own vid Sunday and maybe there might be something I can add , so don't give up just yet and if all else fails, take bronze up or anyone else (included myself) that has offered to build it for you. It just will take a few dollars to send it off and believe me, it would be worth it. Sometimes it's the smallest thing and can be easily overlooked....but first, the more info we have, the easier it is to trouble shoot, like mod, type of wire, gauge, juice, type of wicking material and a couple pictures

Hey buddy, are you there? Just wondering if you were able to post a few picks?
