Hello all, first time posting here.
I recently purchased an authentic KFL+ from Cloud9 (I've had it about a month now). Being my first rebuildable, I botched it multiple times at the beginning, but took it to a local shop and had it rebuilt. Let me tell you, KFL+ is where it's at! I was happily vaping from day 2 of owning this device up until a couple days ago where I ran into an issue that I cannot figure out so here goes, I really hope somebody can offer some advice!
I noticed that after DEpressing the fire button on my MVP2 the coil would still burn (not a complete fire, but significant enough to produce a small amount of vapor and make that crackling noise) for the next couple seconds, and it affected the quality of my vape. I first assumed it was something wrong with my build, which is by the way, a micro coil, 9 wraps of 30g around a 1.4mm precision screwdriver with cotton wick. Which is strange because that build had served me very well running at 10 watts for the past couple weeks. Anyway I rebuild it and the same thing is happening. So I end up taking the entire device apart, cleaning everything (this includes the center post, insulator, positive and negative screws, etc) and putting it back together. At this point, the issue had stopped. It no longer continued to burn after depressing the button, but I was getting lower vapor production than normal, and an extremely significant cut in flavor. I mean, like I can barely taste the juice any more. Also there was a whistle when I vaped. So I took it apart again, reassembled everything, built myself a new coil, same as always 30g 9 wrap 1.4mm and cotton, made sure to tighten the center post as tight as I could without harming anything (possibly too tight) and went at it. Flavor was still very low, vapor production wasn't on par. So now I took it apart again!!! Put it all back together, made sure not to tighten the center post too tight and rebuild it using 10 wraps of 28g around 1.4mm it's reading 1.1 ohms (standard for me) and I cannot seem to get the flavor to come back to normal, vapor production is low, and it is a very unsatisfying vape compared to what the KFL+ normally vapes like. So I'm posting here to see if anyone has any clue at all about what's going on. I'm assuming it has something to do with the connection between the mod and the coil, but I really have no clue. Any help is much appreciated!!
