The Kayfun five pawns edition is merely a cosmetic upgrade to a Kayfun Lite +, so you are in luck!

Here is a link to the tank, from one of my favorite AUTHORIZED svoemesto dealers.
http://www.cloud9vaping.co.uk/epage...tPath=/Shops/yxve46fvrnud/Products/SM-TANK-11

However, the top cap and drip tip used on the Five Pawns edition are unique to that version, and more than likely only available with purchase. I'm sure someone has cloned it by now, but to the best of my knowledge, you can't buy them separately anywhere.

Also note, a KFL+ versus a KFL+V2 isn't much of a change. Had to do more with very slight functionality and cosmetic changes between the two, so parts ARE totally interchangeable.

They have, Fasttech has two or three different ones. Or I should say two three that look exactly the same. I never have understood that. Why don't they pick the best one and dump the rest. As an experiment I ordered on of the cheapest Kayfun 3.1 and one of the most expensive. I couldn't really tell the difference. The expensive (relative to the cheap one, 26 bucks ain't exactly expensive) one had a few more spare parts and a nicer copy of the originals box but other than that looked the same. It just amazes me how fast things get cloned now. They have at least ten variations on the V4 now.

Sent with no malice and not a whole lot of forethought from my new Galaxy Tab 4. Thanks Santa!

Thanks, svoemesto did do a good eye catcher with that one.

I just get too curious when my eliquid is low that I feel I need to view the actual liquid in the bottom.

Hbcorpse, I know this is a kayfun lite thread, but without getting into the depths of k4, does it really save one's issues with the kayfun lite? I did notice some liquid inside the bottom part of the k4 in busardo review, I have not had any leaks with my kayfun so what is there to expect from a k4 vs. a kayfun lite in that respect?

Also is there a solid connection? I am basing it off that it has a spring?

Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't say that the KF4 saves any issues from the KFL...or that it has its own issues altogether...it's just a different device, that works on the same principles.
There is a little liquid build up that can happen in the bottom of the KF4, but that same build up happens in the KFL...just not as noticeably. That's mostly because you can't freely access the area of build up in the KFL. It happens because you are passing a liquid over a hole...gravity takes over when you're done taking a drag, and tiny droplets of juice go down the center pin, and they accumulate...no way to avoid it.
For now, the KF4 only has a spring connection. However, that only seems to be causing issues for the temp control Ni200 builds, and those who are very picky about exacting resistance and construction.
For the regular user, a Kanthal build will work great on the KF4. That being said, it is a little more complicated of a device than the KFL...but it's not impossible to master.

I don't know...I think they keep the junk cuz they'll make more money by selling different versions.
It amazes me how many people out there will settle for cheap Chinese junk, just for the sake of saving a dollar. I mean, I know there are people who need to VAPE on a budget (myself included), but I'd rather save up and buy something quality that is made of trustworthy materials and will last, than throw pennies at my hobby and risk my health on mystery metals.
Just my opinion. Not judging anyone. It's just hard to see it from another standpoint is all.

If you're using the metal rings, and the plastic center section, I've found a trick that helps me gauge juice level.
Turn the Kayfun sideways, and look at the plastic section as a gas gauge!

If the juice level makes a line that cuts across the center of the Kayfun, you'll know you're about halfway out! Anything below that could need a top-off, but that's up to your preference.

We are in the same boat HB. I have china atty's such as Kanger and Beyond Vape, but no clones. If vaping is just a hobby I can see why the cheap clones sell, but I've smoked for 45 years and quitting smoking and staying off cigarettes is my goal. Right now the Kayfun lite is perfect for me, but I'm not saying the K4 is not a thought. If you read the thread "the attack of the K4 clones it almost reads like a comedy of errors. Pages after pages of people talking about missing parts, leaks, etc. At times I find it entertaining how people enjoy being aggravated. To each their own.

Thanks! I might add it to my list once I decide if I want to add a kayfill to the newly acquired kayfun, I am a little biased towards the syringe for now.

I just love my kayfun! I have been smoking one to two reds a day since I got the Kayfun and 24 mg of nicotine! I cannot believe it!

Thanks to your and everyone else that has been so king in answering my questions n this thread, it has save me a lot of thread jumping!

Hey you are almost there in quitting. Make sure you tell us when the Reds go in the trash for good. You are doing great.

Thanks! Will let all of you know, I am still in my quest for the perfect tasting tobacco non sweet liquid, but at this point it is secondary to getting a consistent vape.

If the tobacco giants gave me consisted death puffs, I shall look for a consistent less than lethal alternative vape. Thanks again

Some of these clones are working exactly like the authentic. Just had to see who made the best ones. I paid $21.50 for my 2 that are perfect clones...

Yeah I have 2 KFLv2 clones that work flawlessly. I figured id try them to see how I liked them. If I would have had a poor experience, I would have scrapped them and been done with them. Im amazed at how well they work especially after reading the horror stories. In fact I like them so much I am ordering an original to support the designers. If not for the clone, I dont think id have spent that kind of money to try something new. I wanted to know for sure I'd like the concept before dropping that kind of money

And how would you know? You have tested both on a mod which gives the exact same perfect wattage?

Clones are a way to get the same Vape but without getting Ripped Off! If your signature was true then if no one made the original they could not be a clone.Your signature is actually a oxymoron.

I thought we agreed to lay off of that crap. :glare: :blink:


I apologize in advance for the vulgarity my fellow gentlemen but, check 00.54 + seconds and you will understand the joke.... I am not into doobie snacks at all, but the message is easily conveyed over a juice of your preference.... problem solved... I hope....

And I thought you were done trolling...apparently not.
We were talking about everyone's favorite Chinese vendor, not the authentic VS. clone "drivel"...
How's the weather up there on your high horse?
All sarcasm, all in good fun.
:wink:

I have tried an authentic KF4 and the woman I know who has one was very upset about it when she tried mine. She said that she could not tell the difference between the 2. Why can't you just leave it alone???
