sure no problem, i run in the 1.5 to 1.8 ohm range on my VV. the kayfun seems to be very flexible on builds.
Same as Thrasher... 1.5-1.8Ω on a VW at around 8-10 watts works pretty well for me.
I was looking at the eMode specs... what is the outside diameter? A Kayfun is 22mm, and an eMode uses a 16650 battery, so unless the eMode tubes are pretty thick, the Kayfun will be larger than your APV. Just something to consider.

Not worried about looks as much as performance personally. I seem to have an issue tasting most juices compared to everyone else I know, so i;m just mainly looking for something with more flavor.
With a good build, the Kayfuns (and Russian/Russian 91%) provide excellent flavor. Not quite as good as an equally well built RDA for picking up more subtle juice "colors"... but for excellent flavor with easy builds and overall convenience, well worth consideration. Many of the clones are excellent as well... IMO.
I was interested in more advanced RDA's, but I decided it was wiser to start with something good but more basic to learn on before upgrading to things that required more technical knowledge.
you cant go wrong starting to rebuild on a kayfun, not much to screw up and kinda forgiving in most cases. just a little tinkering to get the proper length of wick and good to go with very little maintenance. i use silica so about every 3rd day i open it, rinse it out, do a dry burn to clean the coil and put it back together, fill and keep going. for the micro coil/cotton crowd just open it, pull the cotton out, replace and same thing. done.
Then, IMO - a Kayfun, Squape or Taifun would be well suited. The Squape in particular is about as easy as it gets... if you can swing the price. If not... wait a month, there's a Squape clone coming.
Im new to the Kayfun Lite(plus) crowd, but Im not new to the dripping crowd.
some thoughts from a seasoned dripper
-Kayfun is easy enough to build and get the wicking proper so you dont flood/dry hit. Takes a couple tries, but not bad. Plenty of tutorials.
-Seems to almost be built around the microcoil, but regular coils are fine too. Its obviously not built for any one type of coil, just sayin, its easy as pie to do microcoils on it.
-As a vaper who SERIOUSLY prefers mechs and slightly to massively subohm builds, the Kayfun preforms much better at or slightly above 1ohm, which to me, means it needs to go on a VV. Makes a lovely looking setup on a provari with a ring.
-as good a vape the kayfun is,and it IS a good vape, it doesn't come close to beating a well built RDA for flavor intensity.
Ill probably keep my Kayfun, cuz i do like it. but as far as flavor intensity goes, a well built coil on pretty much any RDA beats it hands down. If you're having trouble picking up flavors, IMO, you might not like the kayfun.
For a first time RDA, I cant suggest the IGO-L enough. Even with my every growing collection of RDAs that at one point in my lifetime I said were way too expensive and silly(#nooblife), the Igo-L remains a useful part of my kit. Right next to my Nemesis/Patriot combo, is my Igo-L on a provari.

IGO - Simple 3 post rebuildable dripping atomizer. One or more coils... but most often two. Variety of coil & wick methodologies. Drip in - vape out - repeat.
Kayfun - Less simple, pressure differential type rebuildable atomizer. One, sometimes two coils. Variety of coil & wick methodologies. Fill tank, vape until low - refill - repeat. (both metal and plastic tanks shown*)
Collector tank, atty base body, evaporation chamber & "chimney", lower tank, center tank(s*), upper tank (same part as lower), top cap, drip tip, drip tip adapter. (some are my "terms", not Svoe Mesto's)

Sorry flux, you lost me. Which descriptionis which model? Are you saying that igo's dont have tanks are are super advanced drippers basically?
Hmmm... I tossed in some titles and a break line to separate the two descriptions - after that, I don't think I can make it any more clear. Sorry... you're on your own.
The igo is a dripper. Theres nothing special or advanced about it. Its just a cheap RDA. So no, it doesnt have a tank. The kayfun is a very special bottom-coil RTA. Id pick the kayfun over an igo any day.
Aslo just so i am sure i have it right, an rda is a rebuildable drip atomizer and an rta is a rebuikdable tank atomizer? Trying to make sure i understand my acronyms.
My kayfun lite arrived today. I've only been vaping for 3 months and the kayfun lite is my first rebuildable. Currently I'm using it on my VV vamo v3 but my semovar should arrive tomorrow. 
It took me about 30 minutes to do my first build and I used cotton. I messed up a few times but I think I should be able to do the next build in like 10 minutes. It's easy.
Let me tell you... the taste!! OMG! The taste is much much much better than the protank 2, aspire vivinova , aspire davide and iclear 30's that I've been using. I love those tanks but the kayfun is just another level of taste altogether. I never thought vaping could have so much... taste. Fantastic.
Good luck OP.
