Yes. I was merely giving another option of a place that currently has them in stock.

I didn't even realize that had run out again - thanks. I just restocked mine two weeks ago (had been waiting).

I wonder why the different labels. Any one know why?

Just different companies, and the Orb's a 1 or 2mm shorter (not sure why). They also label all their batteries with their own brand (they do a ton of flashlight business). I opt for the shorter ones for a bit less impact on the spring. I analyzed them both, with pics, in a Discount Vapers thread a long, long time ago (I can still remember...).

Song stuck.

My guess is, people re-label them, so they can market them as a different brand.

There are, after all, only a few major battery manufacturers in the world...which means all batteries only come from a few places...the rest is branding and packaging.

Yep - that too. They're both Panasonic. Good batts for my money.

What are you going to top your new Ti with? Stainless steel? Glass? Titanium? I'd really like to find a nice Ti tank to "go with" ...

Titanium isn't used for atomizers much, because it gets hot quick and holds the heat longer than steel. There are a few here: Titanium mods from Ukraine - Titanium mods from Ukraine

I'm going with an Erlkonigin Nano. It weighs a 1/4th of the weight of a Kayfun Lite, and the media blasting looks incredibly similar to the Ti, at least in pictures. Even the original Erlkonigin weighs half as much as a Kayfun Lite. Ought to prevent the light Ti being too top heavy that way.

It's just too bad the Erlkonigin is too expensive to be that ugly, and that rudimentary of a build...not to mention the inconvenient mouthpiece, and confusing airflow/510 connection...

BRING ON THE HATERS!!!!
(I only speak from watching all the "big name" reviewers, as well as a few of the lesser known ones...just wanted to get a wide variety of opinion on this new vape gear.)

I was kinda thinking that too early on(well I don't think it's ugly, at least with a glass tank).. but lighter, smaller, holding more liquid, and airflow control seems like a pretty great feature list for me compared to the Kayfun that I'm thoroughly unimpressed by... Not to mention top filling, so I don't need a damn screwdriver every time I refill.

No I see all those features, and I see how they're distinct. I'm glad it's not a total Kayfun ripoff...
And I'm definitely not trolling...
I just don't see it as an atomizer I'll be buying any time soon...probably never. But that doesn't mean I don't want y'all to have them!!! Please! Buy them! Buy boxes of them! Just don't start smoking again!
I don't care if the next, most awesome thing, is uglier than sin, and costs more than an arm and a leg! As long as none of us are smoking, it's worth it!
Geez...is there an echo in here? Hahahaha at least one of us, says what I just said, every couple hundred posts...
:wink:
I'm being sincere. Promise.

Haha I get what you mean. I've been hoping for SOMETHING more impressive to come out. It seems like everything is either a Kayfun-a-like or a Protank-a-like these days... And I personally have the added stress of being picky about size. There are few
"Nano" versions of tanks.

I'd really love to find a GOOD genesis. A lot of people seem to not like them, but I love them, but it seems like most gennies these days are the same copy of the same weak design.

The Erl seems to have a massive fan-base who swear by it's greatness(sound familiar ;) ), so I think I am going to try it out.

I am looking forward to your impression of it. My curiosity has been piqued by the favorable things posted that I have stumbled upon...

It'll be a little bit. (I'm hoping next month) I just spent $300 on a Provari :p. I promise I will do a full on review when I do get it though. I'm a LITTLE worried because design differences aside it still seems very Kayfun-esque, but most of the things I have read seem to agree that it is much different and better. I'm definitely getting that blue tank and drip tip to go with it I saw earlier. The stock copoly tank makes it look really ugly for some reason.

If you're looking for small, and own a Kayfun...have I got a kit for you!!!
All you need is a nano kit, and then the K-Pico from Mod Factory (I found mine at Cloud 9)...

Go check it out...
It makey you Kayfunny smally.

http://www.cloud9vaping.co.uk/Mod-Factory-K-Pico

Don't buy the K-Nano ring they offer there, just to work with this kit...it won't. The one I used was just a generic nano ring, from a generic nano kit...

Mine is a nano. That K-Pico does look pretty awesome. The Kayfun just doesn't do it for me. Even with the airflow screw out it's tighter draw than I've come to like. I know what you are thinking. I'm probably the pickiest person who ever lived when it comes to this stuff.

My Kayfun works fine by all definitions. It's just... I quit vaping for about a month and got rid of most of my vape gear a while back. The toppers I had before had me spoiled, and are no longer available in any capacity. The Kayfun is good, just not great, and I'm on the lookout for great.

Check out the SLVRBCK pin on that famous eAuction site...you know...one that rhymes with shmee-shmay.
They have a redesigned center airflow pin that, when installed, gives me airflow similar to that of any dripper I've tried...granted I don't own any drippers...and have only tried the heavily modded ones owned by my local vape shop guys.
But damn...the airflow on that pin makes the Kayfun feel like a totally different device!

Mod Factory K-Pico - Cloud 9 Vaping

Ordered the nano kit and K-Pico from Cloud 9 last week, looking forward to trying it out. I've also been watching the Erl crowd with interest. But, may wait until the P3 comes out before I invest in another topper.
