I had a similar "adventure", found out that I had inadvertently displaced the o-ring (in the top part, below the drop tip) that seals the space between the chimney and the top cap, when I backed off one of the sections because I had threaded it on wrong (with the whole thing re-assembled).........vacuum inside ceased to exist and all the juice exited the air hole:(. Am assembling the KFL's one section at a time now, no problems since.

Was it leaking from the fill hole? I've read using another o-ring or Teflon tape with the fill screw solves that. And that was off the "authentic" kayfun Lite thread...seems the original has "issues" more so than the clones.

It exited out the airflow hole, I had to repair, retap and fit an oversize screw into the original fill port as the mild steel screw had done some damage to the baseplate threads when it stripped itself :( I'm checking the O rings now and one of the little perishers had got itself nicked in the threading of the tube section so thats the vacuum leak hopefully identified, its amazing what them little bits of rubber do and how a tiny leak can be the difference between a good vape and a lapful of juice

From one "enabler" to another, you're very welcome! Lol!:laugh:

:laugh: ... I know, who am I to talk right?? Recently I was accused of improperly influencing one of our fellow vapers over in the "girlie thread" with one of my vapeporn videos :evil:

I am gonna post it hear as well, the Focalecig Taifun GT and Caravela set up are in the video towards the end. The Fogger V3 and Kraken from Focalecig is also in it ... When I feel bored I make stuff. :D ... that is, if I can't buy stuff! :lol:

LOL, I'm here :). Just have not been posting much lately. I want to try an A7 with the Oid. One of those attys I have on my list but just have not gotten a round to it. I here that adding the Oid and filler renders really nice results.

The Oid?? That is a new one to me ... I like the A7, but I haven't used it in a while. I have been meaning to recoil it and give it a go on my mech. I bought it back in November to use w/my Ego Twist, but it looked a little silly so I put it away for later. Was tossing around the idea of putting up in the classies with my "other" unused, like new stuff ... but it's a good one, so I don't know.

It's easy to set up, and I like that it can hold quite a bit of liquid (around 1ml) ... and it's cute as heck. :p ... So what is this Oid thing? :laugh:

Well captivape use to sell them/make them but I don't see it on their site anymore. There are several threads about it here though. Basically it is a tube that fits on your drip tip that sits in the top section of the a7 and you fill the top section around that tube with filler material then your wicks from the bottom section go up into that tube touching the filler material therefore re wicking itself for a much longer period.

Here is one where Todd is doing his own. Different atty though I think but it gives you the idea
Part one and part two.

This is why I love Mark Todd! ... genius idea! I have seen a few videos for the spheroid , so I am familiar with the concept, and as luck would have it, I have a bunch of cleaned, and dried filler material from old cartos that I was holding onto for now specific reason ... now I have one :D.

The funny thing is, the mod that I had the A7 set up with in my video, Mark Todd also showed me how to mod the switch on it to make the throw shorter.

Thanks Crocky for mentioning it, and posting these links too ... saved to my favorites list. :D

Ok my package has been in "acceptance" status for almost a week now...what's going on?

Don't panic ... It could be one of two things. 1) the tracking simply hasn't been updated, even though the package is moving (have seen this plenty of times). 2) it could be held up because I am sure that Focal is not the only vendor that had a large amount of shipments going out after the Holiday.

Does it say "processed through sort facility" Shenzhen, EMS?

Beside you
Still no published tests on this battery, so Samsung 20-R remains the undisputed heavyweight champ for me ..

And still having fits with your mesh eh? What do you mean by "insert a token"?

Yea, found the perfect length 40x50mm with extra on the side for snipping. Long side on the roll..Guess i need to bring the multimeter home tonight from the office.

Like in the arcade game, 1st token fail so gonna insert another to continue. :D
