No leg lenghts are usually included to what everyone else gets....maybe your using SS wire, if so, it has a lower resistance. ....8 wraps of kanthal at 2.5 should be closer to 1.4 ish....you also could be using a 2mm rod instead of 2.5, or perhaps using 26g kanthal? If I had to guess, by your numbers, I would say your using 26g kanthal, because at 2.5 coil and 8 wraps, it would be around 1 ohm......if this is the case, I would drop a wrap or two, to get around .7 ohms, this way it would heat faster...if you really want 1.4 ohms, you need 28g. I mean 8 wraps of 26g could just be a little to much mass and lenght, but it should vape pretty good

Im positive its a 2.5 coil and its 2.8g wire. The package doesnt say if its SS or kanthal so maybe the guy gave me SS instead of kanthal like i asked for... busy vape shops..

Could be....and fyi, it's 28 gauge, not 2.8 gauge. This gauge isn't even it's size in mm, for like 28g is something like
.33mm. So how is the 8 wrap, .7 ohm vaping?

Nothing wrong with sub-ohming...at the right wattage. Doesn't make you a cloudbro. Not that there's anything wrong with that. ;)
I'm an 8's man - 28 guage (ss), 8 wraps, around 8.x ohms, around 8 watts & change. 2.5mm ID- no 8's in that one.

Its better but too hot for my taste. Again not a lot of flavor compared to the prefab nautilus 2 coils, which i find quite frustrating. Im sorry for all the questions. Thank u guys for your patience. Im heading back to the shop one of the coming days.

Could be a wicking issue perhaps if your not getting great flavor, as for the heat, a .7 ohm coil can run as cool as a 1.4 ohm coil if the wattage is adjusted accordingly. Now if your wicking is perhaps stuffed to much in the channels, or your juice flow is opened too much, or just too much cotton through coil, it will affect flavor more so then the coil itself...I guess go to the shop and see exactly what type of wire you do have and then take it from there. And no worries on asking to many questions, for that's what this is all about. It's all in the wicking my friend and it takes a bit of time perfecting

I have two questions for anyone who have the Authentic KFP:
What are the sizes of the 3 o-rings on the base? ( You can measure the ones in the spare o-rings bag )
With the airflow ring down, If you block the air slot with your finger and blow or suck , does air escape through the seem between the airflow ring and the tank or is it air tight? Now if you push the airflow ring up to adjust it and try again, is air tight?

When the airflow ring is down it feels pretty much air tight. When lifted up to change airflow it's not air tight at all.
