i'm also using a thrunite mcc. not bad, either. but would like to see some xtar around..

I'm not seeing the hybrid cap for the stingray x that you see advertise other places. Anyone know if FC has the hybrid cap with it or am I just missing it.

Hey Crocky .. this one doesn't come with the hybrid cap, but there should be another version arriving shortly that does have the hybrid cap and drip tip to match .. that is the one I want also. :)

Thank goodness I have a Taifun GS :D .. I was thinking of trading it for something, but I think I will wait to see if I do pull the trigger on a mini Nemmy... in the meantime, I have bigger fish to fry. I need something for the Stingray X that I will have.

As much as I like the copper TOBH, I don't want another dripper .. I would love it if FC could get the rose copper Kayfun, that would be perfect!

Yeah, and the X is cheaper than the mini!

FYI halfempty, I believe that the base of the Taifun GS is the same as the Kayfun Mini, its just that the body gets bigger at the top/tank, which I believe is around 17mm.

Thanks, you just talked me out of a GS, and it's a bit of a pain to build too.

So in essence I suck as a temptress tonight! :laugh: Oh well, I can't win every day :p
Don't worry Temptress, we all have our days when we have trouble performing :blush:

On a different note I found out what the little o-ring on the FC Tobeco KFL+ chimney thread is for, leak prevention. I noticed the slightest hint of fluid around the air hole a couple of times, and shining a light through the drip tip hole I could clearly see almost all of the top cap chimney o-ring. I replaced the stock really thin little o-ring that came on the chimney threads with a standard 1mm thickness o-ring. No more air hole sweating or visible top cap o-ring.

Is this your disclaimer? :laugh:


On another note ... This tobeco KFL is eerily similar to the new version sku 12113. It looks exactly the same, with the exception of the air flow adjustment, so I am thinking that these came out of the same factory.

i can testify it. the chamber and chimney are identical. the base only differs if you got the wide juice channels version from tobeco (the other version has narrow and superficial channels). the new 12113 has wide channels but they are rounded. my tobeco channels are even wider, deeper and squared.
i think the tobeco is airier than the 12113.
in both of them, a o-ring is needed to help sealing the chimney, between the chamber and the chimney or into the top cap groove. this way, no more leaking here.
less cotton is needed than in those kf with the taller chamber.
i'm very happy with both now, near to the golden kayfun and not lower than the new v2. i'm enjoying the same all them

No comment.

Yes it does sound like the same basic design.

I remembered your posts, that is why it was so easy for me to figure out what was happening. Thanks.

Sorry if this has been asked, I searched but did not find. Stainless 4nine clone.... which is the one to get?
$21.20 SKU18476 or $23.94 SKU19088?
The 18476 looks like it has a top cap with a 510 pin any other differences? Says they are shipping with a different cap and engraved button starting July 1.
Also shipping options? Singapore Post or EMS?
Thank you - Dirk

Has anyone gotten the Stainless steel Fire of Life Mod?$27.56 Fire of life Style Mechanical Mod Set - I've never had a Mech before, but this one really looks good to me, but without any reviews I don't know if it's like the Four9 and something newbs like me should stay away from.

My fire of life is on it's way in transport now I wil let you know how it is when I get it.
Waiting to take a flight over the water ems is slacking this shipping time.

* Anyone that tracks alot from a android device do yourself a favor and download package buddy!
Best app ever lol

    I don't know about the 4nine, if you wait, I'm sure Nikki will be in later and able to put more insight into the different sku's.
    As far as mailing, you want to use EMS, it's the fastest mailing option, but can't use that option if order contains juice or batteries.

    Thank you. I found a blog from Nikki and she advised EMS. I pulled the trigger on the $13 dollars group buy 4nine. If it is crap I'm not out much, but I think it will be ok. I hope I'm not waiting 2 month to find out LOL.
