Hey guys looking for some opinions here, I've had my kayfun for months now and prob about 40 builds on it and I always have a harsh vape(only way I can describe it). Not dry or anything. Just throat hit that gets me. I decided to try something odd and threw a 2 ohm huge coil in there and it was a lot better. Had to use it on my vv device with those high ohms. So after that long story I'm looking for something else. I was kinda thinking fogger or squape clone. What are your opinions on those two
Kayfun alternative ?

First I would say try higher VG and/or lower nic for a smoother hit.
As for a new atty, fogger v4, orchid, aga T5 or T7, Smok RSBT or a taifun GT all seem like good options. I've hast eye on a squape, but I'm gonna wait until the new SquapeR gets cloned.

TH is achieved by a few variables, namely, higher PG, higher nic & hotter (lower ohm) coils. Reduce some or all of those and you will reduce TH.
Don't have a Fogger but my SQr is probably the closest I have ever had to an RDA in a tank. Awesome air flow for a tank. Super easy build. However, the best RTA I currently own is my Erlkonigin.

Thanks for the advise. Might fiddle with the kayfun again tonight. That squape seems pretty nice. Lots of good reviews
the Kayfun is designed more for flavor than clouds.... seems to work best at 1.2 - 1.8 ohms with 28 - 30 ga. on a VV/VW device... ( 10- 13 W)
Could also be your wicking. It seems getting the wick just right is the biggest trick. That said, after countless builds, I find a simple 6 wrap, 28g coil @ 1.2 ohm with proper wicking is just incredible on my Russian. If it tastes funky, I know I need to re-wick and or clean the coil. Of course, the other factors mentioned above are also true.
Good luck.
Good luck.
another vote for the Erlkonigin!
also, the variables mentioned. try different juices too

I have a squape clone and the screws scraped the chimney and shorted out. I'd buy a Tobeco Squape clone and avoid the fasttech clones. I also have an Aqua clone from fasttech, ehh it is a PITA to build and fill, works good when it's set up right but not worth the effort.
So far the best RTA's I have are two Kayfun's and a RSBT. I'm really enjoying the RSBT and it is worth a try. I really like the airflow, flavor and ease of filling. Wicking a RSBT has taken some experimenting but it's working like a champ with sterile cotton setup "kayfun style" (cotton just touching the bottom of the well and pressed up the sides covering the holes).

Yeah, I had the same problem with my two Ehpro Kayfun clones. The throat hit was killing me. I tried everything: lower coil, higher coil, small diameter coil, larger diameter coil, less cotton, more cotton...everthingy I could think of including 100% VG juice, lower in nic content and still got too much TH. Ended up selling them both. Now I drip and use cartos or Reos. The only RBAs I currently use are a Fogger V2 and V3 and both hit better (for me) than the Kayfuns. They are a bit more airy on the draw than the Kayfuns also. Of course this is my opinion and may not be popular here, but that is my experience.
When I first got the kayfun, I experience the same thing, throat hits / dry throat. I type and try and try until I reach a comfort zone which is 1.7 ohm. Below 1.7 is hot, above 1.7 too light. Now at 1.7 ohm, 28 ga, 2 mm diameter, 12/11 wraps micro coil with sterile cotton ball. Whole day vape, sometimes is great and other is good vape. I guess because I'm using a mechanical mod (stingray clone) when the battery voltage drop. Another thing I notice is the nicotine level, 9 mg & 12 mg, I get dry throat. 6 mg is a smooth vape.
If the throat hit is already too much with a Kayfun you probably don't want to go to a Fogger or a dual coil tank, because those will only make it stronger since they increase the vapor. You probably want to switch to a lower PG juice and maybe try to reduce the nicotine level.
I've been looking at both the fogger and squape. I was kinda thinking the same as you said stantheman. Dual coils might be bad for me with th. I'll prob grab a squape clone. They are pretty cheap to worth a shot
