Well which 23mm mods are you considering?? Let us know, and those of us who have them can chime in with feedback .. Decisions are the worst! :p

I decided to get SKU: 18471, Caravela Mechanical mod - Silver(1X18650 (not included))
According to description it's 23 mm, unlike the mixed 18650 tube only mod (SKU 13511).

Edit: I wonder if this Caravela drip tip would fit the Squape. It seems a bit shinier than the brushed steel on the Squape.

Arg! While I was steady vaping all was well. I set it down and ate, came back to leaking all over from the air hole. If i close off the air hole with my finger I get no draw at all so I dont think there is an air leak. My whole tank of juice is almost gone now.
I have a question, next to the air hole is a slanted hole for airflow adjustment right? Is there supposed to be in screw in there? I shined my flashlight in it and see no screw or anything.

I've found that when wicking the kayfun with cotton, less is more.
On my first try, I did the "bunny ears" thing and trimmed the cotton at the height of the bottom part of the chimney. At first it didn't wick fast enough, and then it started to leak from the air flow hole.
I've found that the right length is right at where the channels reach the deck. At least for me it did the job. Give it a try.
Or maybe try another build. Rip trippers has a video with a chimney coil for the kayfun. It's sick as t*ts, or so he claims. :)

The other issue is it depends on just how thick your wick is. I make mine incredibly thin because of how they expand and have found the "bunny ears" to be perfect. If yours are a bit thicker then making them too long can plug things up in the channels.

I got a Hcigar 3D dripper a few days ago but, it's just to damn long with the 510 adapter! sooo, i'm thinking I need a Nemi ;) how are the nemesis mods at focal? FT has a bunch but if focal has close to a 1:1 clone i'll get one from doris...

The more expensive Nemesis at FC is a 1:1, and I believe there is customer feedback on the website, and as well as in my blog for customer feedback .. I know that the cheaper one has three beauty rings instead of two, but is otherwise identical, but made by a different manufacturer. If you want to be on the "safer" side, I would go with the more expensive one. Use the FC coupon FOCALECIGSHARING for 10% off to bring down the cost. :)

I am sure that Drip Tip will fit the Squape just fine. :)

Yeah I make mine so they just slide on the 2mm coil.

I just saw this posted for the first time (didn't read all the way through, obviously). I'm going to check this out right now. The biggest thing I don't like about them is that I get the impression they don't know what they're selling and they sell so much more than that. Their site might be the most impersonal site I've ever been on. Anyway, going to check it out now. Thanks!

I believe that this mod has been on their site since I found them, but I don't recall anyone ever giving any feedback on it, so I hope that you do order it because I was love hear how it is ... That is definitely a conversation piece.

Not sure where you got the impression that FC doesn't know what they are selling, most especially since you admittedly did not read through this thread.

You can click on the blog links in my signature for more detailed information about placing an order with Focalecig, which is a recommended read.
