Hi. Got my K Pico from Cloud 9. Incredibly fast shipping! Am having an issue with it and thought I would post here before bothering Cloud 9. The threads are pretty rough on the chimney (I'm used to the buttery smooth ones on my Svo KFL's.). I cleaned off the threads of the pico. I was finally able to screw the pico chimney down (with some effort-unscrewing, re-screwing) but there is a tiny gap that I cant seem to get passed. And then there is the subsequent leaking which I assume is a result of the teeny tiny gap.
Anybody experience rough threads on these? What might I be missing. I've got to run but will be back this evening to check (am not ignoring your wisdom) í.½í¸€

Wait WHAT??? When did you order it???
I ordered a KFL+V2 from them on the 10th and it hasn't come anywhere near me! And we are in the same state!

I did experience a LITTLE bit of roughness on the threads of the K-Pico but they went away after a light cleaning and a few times of threading it in...
The only leaks I've experienced with it are when I fill it (I'm a fill-port user)...
If these problems persist, I wouldn't hesitate to send Cloud 9 a message/"Open a ticket"...they pride themselves on stocking what passes their standards...and quite honestly, they've never let me down.
Except with this most recent order's shipping time!
Of course, that's more than likely not their fault.

Thanks H B. I placed my order on the 12th. Maybe it was the $20 tip that got it here faster (just kidding). Bet yours is almost there. . Yeah, the rough threads concern me especially since I can't seem to close the gap between the Pico chimney and KFL. I am assuming that you do not have a gap? Right? I'm a bottom filler too. The only time I have had any leaks with the standard was when I forgot to put on the chimney (oops) or the chimney wasn't secure enough. I think I'll get a ticket going with Cloud 9. I'm sure they will make it right.

Ping, the reason I'm trying out a Pico is because I like the more compact look. It also is supposed to have a warmer Vape. Haven't sorted mine out yet, but will soon enough. I certainly like the look of it.

I hope mine gets here soon! Hahaha!

Anywho...try flipping your chimney over.
ModFactory (makers of the K-Pico) is a nice manufacturer of fine vaping gear...but nobody is perfect.
If it doesn't work with the other end of the chimney, I'd say contact Cloud9 and document your problems with them. They will make absolutely sure you're taken care of!

Ping, you need not worry about things such as the Pico...you've got too much stock Kayfun goodness to enjoy first. And once you're completely comfortable with the in's and out's of the Kayfun, I advise you to try out accessories at that point.
No sense in changing up the basics, when you're just learning the basics as it is, ya know?

Ping is happy with his SvoeMesto Kayfun. Was only curious HB.

Up-date on Pico threads HB. You are one smart and helpful cookie. I tried the other end of the KFL chimney to screw the Pico chimney and it worked much better. No gap! And you were right about the great c.s. at Cloud9. Had a reply email this AM with a promise to send a replacement if my fiddling didn't yield results. Yep, that's how I like to do business! I do notice a drop or 2 of eliquid escaping if I set the KFL on its head. Luckily I don't do that much but will keep an eye nonetheless.

Yesterday was a "bad gear fiddling day." Had a few things things to finger out and was all thumbs. Put the stuff to the side. Got my back-up out. Put out SOS notes and went about my day. Today was a "yahoo gear day." Most all of the stuff that baffled me yesterday were easy peezy today. It's a great reminder for me that getting another person's perspective on something and taking a break is so much smarter than relying soley on my limited knowledge and present perspective.
Did try the sanding of the insulator at the bottom of the KFL pin in order to get a better connection w my P2.5 and beauty ring without success. Im ok with that. Perhaps another day.
Do hope your package arrives soon HB and thank again!

Nothin' wrong with window shopping. And nothin' wrong with springin' for something that might interest you either. There are all kinds of accessories and modifications for the KFL. heck, one day you might want a K4. It all depends on what you like or need. Might be none of it.

I was speaking fairly sarcastically...hope that came across.
Just didn't want you to worry about something unnecessary, when you've only finally gotten on the Road of Kayfun. The K-Pico is merely a distraction!

I know your style on replies. No harm no foul. One day I may look for additions for my Kayfun, but now I'm loving the vape and quality of my Kayfun. I don't buy junk so I'm sure I'll be enjoying this fine product.

    Is the poly tank that comes stock with the five pawns kayfun for sale and will it fit the kayfun lite v2?

    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 SvoëMesto 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.

    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!

    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!

    Had to go to my doc yesterday, he asked me about my smoking. He was amazed on my explanation on how eliquid/juice has brought my smoking down this far. He added that anything other than drugs/narcotics that will deter you from analogs is a big plus!

    I really hope I make it through, sorry Marlboro man, but I do not want to join you, at least for now......
