Also i went from using clearomizers to this kayfun and now my ejuice like cosmic fog milk and honey and others taste sooooo sweet now , like too sweet but the tanks taste fine , should i do something different?

im using japanese cotton and my coil is 1 ohm on a genuine hana modz " also my very first ever made coil"

The only way is the use a syringe and a needle. Does it have the fill hole at the bottom (Kayfun lite style)? In that case, turn the tank upside down unscrew the fill hole screw, insert the needle and drain the tank. If it has the valve type fill hole on the side (Kayfun 3.1) you'll need to drain the tank from the top. Block your air hole, unscrew the top cap (being careful not to unscrew the other tank sections), insert the needle and drain the tank. At least that's how I'd do it.

I position mine over a bottle while unscrewing the bottom cap. As for the sweetness the Kayfun intensifies flavors 10 times more than clearomizers. Clearomizers tend to mute flavors a bit. I have a few flavors I can't use in the Kayfun because the flavor is just too much.

I DIY and I have also lowered my flavoring percentage to like 5 percent where I was using 15 with my clearos...Another way to save money with Kayfuns!

If I'm just filling the tank, I use the phillips screw hole at the bottom. Some vendors are supplying juice in bottles with small tips that fit the hole. If not, then a large syringe with a 14ga needle or larger is best. 20ga is smaller than 14ga, btw.

If I'm changing the cotton wick, I just unscrew the top cap and pour the juice into an empty bottle after I remove the dropper tip, then remove the tank and the chimney and that leaves you with just the deck.

As you discovered, flipping it and unscrewing the deck leaves you with all the juice in your hand. :) Been there, done that!

All the above on getting the juice out. :)

For the flavor issue - well, the KF's are pretty good a delivering flavor. If it's now too sweet, you might try turning the power down. Your clearos probably ran in the 1.8 - 2.4 Ω range, so if you've not changed anything on your battery, you're running a lot more watts. More power means you vaporize more juice per draw, so more flavor.

When I absolutely have to, I remove the drip tip, and set the kayfun upside down on an empty juice bottle. Then, I unscrew the base and let the liquid drain into the bottle. But, my preferred method is to finish the juice first. When the thing is completely full, there's only somewhat over 4ml in there anyway, so it's usually not more than a day to empty it completely.

Lol yep I had juice all over my hands and lost the last of my favorite juice. it's a lite plus

in my Hana modz the flavour is very intense , night and day difference too clearomizers. My ohms light keeps flashing so a quick google search reaveled I have to increase watts for it too stop. So it's at 14.5 watts and when I first built my very first ever coil it was 0.8 but now 1.1 for some reason?

how do I not waste kanthal when I want too get a certain ohm? Cause after you make a coil and put it on the deck are you not stuck with that?
also the leftover wire in the posts that you snip off later , if you leave it on while testing ohms does that extra wire affect the ohm reading?

Kanthal forms a coating of oxidation on the outside that insulates it. When you first build the coil, the wires in the coil touch but don't have this insulation, so the resistance is lower (part of the electricity flows across two coils instead of around the coil). After you've burned the coil several times, this oxidation forms and the resistance goes up. If your coil wasn't fully oxidized before the build, that could explain why the resistance was lower.
