I was going to order this as soon as it was available, but the one piece chimney is just plain stupid IMHO. It is so easy for the wick to move out of place when screwing the chimney on after rebuilding, and with a one piece chimney, there's no way to tell if it has happened until you notice it in the vape. Unfortunately for me at least, I'm gonna have to pass on this one.
This. Your first instinct is to put the wick in the channels but YOU SHOULDN'T. Cut your wick short. Some people really need to just try it.It is very simple to me. I cut my wicks SUPER short, kinda like you would for a protank rebuild. I cut them off right at the deck and never put any down into the channels so they never have a chance at getting caught in the chimney threading. A quick saturation and inspection to make sure they are resting atop the channels, and never had an issue from my first build to my latest. Wicks a dream from 50/50 to 90/10. Nothing complicated, and dual coils ROCK!
With this RTA and others like the orchid you shouldn't be putting your wick in the channels. Search you tube videos, most are doing it wrong.Maybe its just habit for me when I wick my Kayfuns, but I always visually inspect my wicks after screwing on the bottom chimney piece to make sure the wick didn't twist when I did so. More often than not, the wick DID move so I need to reposition it with a toothpick before screwing on the upper chimney piece. With a one piece chimney, for me at least, this is not possible.
One day someone will make an RTA with ALL the features! Why they haven't yet is a mystery! If this one had a two piece chimney (O.K. I can manage with one but the option would be nice), an airflow ring (having to remove the atty to adjust is just silly), and top fill cap, it would be perfect! (I reserve the right to change my opinion without notice).
I liked the taste and clouds of my quasar but i absolutely hate having to re-drip after a few hits... just not convenient for my style.
Only reason ive been using a kayfun for so long is cause its been reliable and i can pick it up and use it anytime... just wished it had a bigger airflow stock (drilled the base w/ a 2mm bit).
Where did get the v4 for $13? I dont mind ordering that if i can get it for $13 lol. I also noticed the lemo chimney top has a larger diameter then the orchid v4... am i seeing correctly? also are orchid parts interchangle with kayfun? im hoping i can use kayfun drop kit on the orchid but by judging how the orchid chimney looks, i doubt it.
Most Kayfun parts are interchangeable. I know if you top fill, you can use the full size Kayfun quartz tank. Also the m tanks will fit.
edit: im assuming you got yours from fasttech then lol.

You nailed it, but I have seen them for under $15 from another site, I would have to do some digging! I know angelcigs has the v3 for $13, but the v4 is out of stock at $13 as well.
Just got tracking info for my Billow. Good times.
