When opening and closing juice control, does it feel smooth? Or do you feel friction? I haven't noticed this on mine, but honestly I don't think I looked....also is the shine gone consistently around the entire circumference or just random?Hello guys,
New member in the forum and relatevily new in vaping. Last week I purchased a Kayfun Prime, moving from the trusty Nautilus 2. It's my first RDA/RTA and I found the whole wicking process easy and intresting so I'm experimenting with different builds (once per day) till I find the sweet spot for me. Since the purchase of a Kayfun was a big jump for me (and for my pocket), let me ask the silly question of the day.
After a week of use I just noticed that the polishing in a small area of the Chimney's base became matt (not as polished as the rest of the Chimney's cylinder)
I'm reffering to the Chimeny's area that unveils when opening the Liquid Control but is hidden inside the air flow ring once the liquids are fully closed. To my understanding this happens due to the friction between Chimney and Air Flow cylinder when playing with the Liquid or Air Flow settings, however I'm curious if it's something common/normal.
I'm sorry in advance for my English, and the way I tried to describe my"issue".
Not sure what having a few km3's has to do with it, but I would say if you either simply like the looks or are a glass breaker...it's just a looks thing really, just like my wave tank addition. ..it's still not a whole new atomizer, just a different tank

Just to clarify:
The comment about the PEI tank was just an aside. It's a nice looking tank.
In addition, I was wondering why the Prime would supercede the KFMv3, as an MTL tank, for some people.
Is it just the form factor, or the exposed air control?
I'm still trying to talk myself into (or out of) buying a Prime.
Not quite getting there, one way or the other.
So I was asking why people have opted for the Prime over the KFMv3 specifically.
CMD some day in the future heading to the internet cafe to see if Svoemesto has released a Possum Trot, Kentucky steel tank for his Prime.I am holding out for Possum Trot, Kentucky.
The vapes are at the same level as far as I'm concerned. I favor the Prime over the KM3 because it looks better on a compact mod (JAC Series-B, in my case). The Prime is wider (22mm vs 19mm) and shorter than the KM3 (1.8" vs 2.1").In addition, I was wondering why the Prime would supercede the KFMv3, as an MTL tank, for some people.

You're in a good place if you have to "settle" for a KM3.Well, thanks guys, that's pretty much what I thought.
I can't justify it financially atm, but maybe at some point.
It does look good though, especially with that new tank.
Well, it feels smooth, not buttery smooth but becomes smoother as I continue to use it. The shine gone consistently, it's about 1.5mm thick when juice control is fully open and covering the entire circumference. Not a big deal since I will find several ways to accidentaly scratch it by myself, but just thought to ask. You are the biggest community talking about the Prime, so I wanted to join in any case. Thanks for your reply and enjoy your Kayfun.When opening and closing juice control, does it feel smooth? Or do you feel friction?

Next time I rebuild I will check it out, but it sounds like it's normal....just to make it smoother and maybe you already do this, but every time I rebuild , and before screwing on chimney, I always lub those orings with juice to make it a little smootherWell, it feels smooth, not buttery smooth but becomes smoother as I continue to use it.

Good thought, maybe it's just the oring kind of making a mark or keeping it cleanIs something coming off or going on?
I meant the 2 that are on the base of deck....there is one smaller one very close to coil and one down a little further. I lub these two up, just so the chimney can go up and down easier , which helps a little when opening and closing juice controlActually there is no any oring there. (the top of the airflow ring embraces the chimney's base).
You can use other things too like lip balm or mineral oil. Lasts a little longer than e-juice.Right, thanks for the tip. I realized that after unboxing, I was actually playing with the airflow ring and was very stiff. After giving it the first wash everything became very smooth, until the water gone so I lubricated using some VG drops. I tried olive oil too, but prefer to smell it in my salad rather in my vaping![]()
I’ll just add that the very thin lip on the airflow adjustment ring is very thin and could have been damaged in shipment.Right, thanks for the tip.

Yep, when new I use burt's bees lip balm and also very so often. ...You can use other things too like lip balm or mineral oil. Lasts a little longer than e-juice.
Haha yes, i once tried to polish a scratched mod-display with toothpaste, which made me think for weeks i was vaping menthol juice.I tried olive oil too, but prefer to smell it in my salad rather in my vaping![]()
