Best Kayfun for Provari Mini?

[dirtybirdy]

So I am wanting to purchase a kayfun for my Provari I just don't know which one to purchase. Should I purchase the lite, lite plus, 3.1. Just seems to be to many choices and they all look to be basically about the same thing to me. Also I was thinking Ephro as the brand? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Really the Provari is not ideally suited for rebuildables as it has a 1.5 ohmish limit on the low side. A mech or a newer VW like the dna's do that better if your cloud chacing. But if you really want to do it it will work if you stay within the limits of the provari.
First things first you need somethings more important before you order a RTA.
A good working knowledge of ohms law, an ohm meter of some kind to test the build before you stick it on something. You need Wick ( i recommend organic cotton, cotton bacon, cellucotton or Japanese cotton. Organic cotton being the cheapest and easiest to find. You need wire and since your going to be going in the 1.5 ohm range i'd get 30 maybe 28 gauge wire. Something to wrap the wire around like tiny screwdrivers or better still a cheap set of drill bits I recommend metric. Tools, tweezers, screwdriver(S), cutter and pliers etc.
Always play it safe test before mounting the build on something.
Now to your question just give me a moment to climb down off the soap box. I'd get the Black Edition ( not the color black) kayfun light plus. I like these better than the kayfun by a small margin Aqua and fogger v4. Never had a Fogger or Aqua flood or leak and I can't say that about the kayfun.
OH the reason for the soap box speech is a promise I made to someone about new folks and rebuilding.

A Kayfun is an excellent choice for a Provari. I'll respectfully disagree with the above comments about a Provari not being ideally suited for a Kayfun. They work like they were designed for each other. In fact, popular e-cig reviewer PBusardo's favorite setup is a Kayfun Lite Plus on his Provari's. Kayfun-style RBA's are probably the most popular rebuildable tank atomizers at this time.



The Kayfun is designed to perform best at 1.2 - 2.0 ohms, perfectly within a Provari's range. My builds for my Provari range from 1.2 ohm - 1.5 ohm. Going much lower in resistance could melt the Kayfun's insulator. A Kayfun was not designed to be a cloud chaser, it is best known as a flavor machine.

I've owned an authentic SvoeMesto Kayfun Lite Plus 2 for about 3 months now. It produces excellent flavor if not incredible vapor, but totally adequate for my needs. It is extremely easy to build on, easy to fill if you have a blunt needle/syringe (bottom screw fill hole). Holds approximately 4 ml of e-liquid.

My only complaint, if you call it one, is the airflow is on the tight side. Compared to the drilled out caps of my drip atomizers, its got a noticibly tighter draw, I'd really like to drill out the air hole, but I'm not about to try to drill out the thick stainless steel without access to a drill press and ruin a $100 tank with a broken drill bit stuck in the hole.

I notice that the EHPro clones have a couple of versions with a larger hole and dual air holes in an attempt to improve this issue.

This one's great too:

Every one of my Provari`s has a kayfun clone on it.
I think it is one of the best tanks out there. That is why I own six of them.



I like and own both of these tanks. The kayfun lite plus works better for me though.
I notice sometimes the lite will sometimes leak but very slightly.
I took out the screw in the airflow on the lite plus.

I always wonder about filling the newer version.
They do have a new top cap at slowtech.
I am waiting for the glass tank section from slowtech sent on July 30th. It would be nice to test it someday.

Really the Provari is not ideally suited for rebuildables...

Well I have 2 KFL+ on an MVP so I must be REALLY crazy. And a whole bunch of people on the MVP owners forum must be too. ;-)

I'm a total Kayfun/rebuildable noob still but I have 2 Ehpro KFL+ v2's that don't leak at all and have performed flawlessly (except for my noob wicking mistakes, lol). Super easy to build on.

eh pro kfl v2..
I have owned them all..
I only use provari and KFL/Russian...

Really the Provari is not ideally suited for rebuildables as it has a 1.5 ohmish limit on the low side. A mech or a newer VW like the DNA's do that better if your cloud chacing. But if you really want to do it it will work if you stay within the limits of the provari.

I've had a 1.1ohm kayfun build on a Provari and it fired fine. It wasn't what I was aiming for, but it vaped like a champ until I could be bothered to rebuild it. I've seen videos of 0.9ohm builds too. Not saying you will get the best out of it going that low, but it's far from a 1.5ohm limit.

Also any cloud-chasers shouldn't be using kayfuns in the first place in my opinion. Unless you drill out the air holes and dremmel the wick channels, the stock kayfuns are more of a middle-of-the-road RTA style tank that offer decent vapor but great flavor.

I almost exclusively use kayfuns on my provari. I think they are an excellent topper for this device and would highly recommend them for users.

Not any more Bad, he's been rocking that cyclone on his REO for the last 2 months. I think he feels guilty about it though

I saw that at a recent vape bash he was sporting the new Provari P3, so I bet he's still using a Kayfun at times, too.

I ended up getting the Kayfun Lite Plus. I figure I want to shoot around 2 ohms on these coils. I don't really like anything under 1.5 so hopefully it will all be great.

Good for you dirtybirdy. Play with it, see what works best for you. I've found that 1.2 - 1.3 works best for me with most of my flavors, but I know some people stay around the 2 ohm mark and really enjoy the vape.

That building vid that Bad posted earlier is one of the better ones out there if you need any tips.

More like Rocking whatever is next on the eval. list
Just spent the last week of so with a pair of Vapor Shark DNA's

Whatever Kayfun Manufacturer you decide on, as long as you pick up a Lite, Lite Plus or Lite Plus V2 - IF you have a connection issue, you can replace the center pin with an available adjustable center pin.
Two of mine have the adjustable Pin and I love the feature. Makes fitting to any of my mods simple.
