For anyone with whistling problems, which has plagued me since ive purchased the kfl+.... ive found a fix.

I know some people have this problem and it was annoying the .......** S*** out of me. The whistling sounded like a tea pot kettle at its boiling point.

1.) disassemble your kfl+, center post, everything, take it all apart. Airflow screw, etc, all of it.

2.) use a 1/16 drill bit and go into the airhole and scrape all around the walls and make sure everything inside is smooth. Do the same thing to the center post screw, make sure there is no debris or jagged edges hanging off the holes. Do the same to the airflow screw hole. Make sure as well the puncture from INSIDE the center post area is clean as well.

Ive been told svoemesto's manufacturing quality has gone downhill with the KFL+, so this would only explain why i found so many jagged edges on hole punctures and debris in airholes.

3.) With 200-400 grit sandpaper, roll a round stick of it and go into every airhole and smooth it down.

4.) Rinse everything clean with water.


I no longer have any whistle when drawing, and the draw has improved dramatically after doing this.

This problem has really ...... me off for the past 2 weeks and being my first real non clone rba purchase, im not impressed. For the headache and time that it went into fixing it, i would have rather spent 1/10th the money and bought a clone. Aside from this huge problem i had, the kfl+ does vape great. But, svoemesto will not get my money next time.

:confused: wait, are you saying you bought a genuine (ie: the expensive one) KFL+ and had to bore out the air holes of debris!? OH MAN...... that sucks bro.

Intaste just marked them in stock. They are the better deal for people in the US as they don't charge the 20% VAT to us like Cloud9 does.

Yeah, also c9 charges u in pounds not euros!! I just purchased the mini with some extras for £125 & i was like, well that's not too bad, well when I checked out it was $209!lol!! I went to intaste.de & the same thing would of only cost $154 out the door!! They were out of stock though!

U know I've noticed this whistling from time to time with my kfl+, that I didn't get with my lite. I was thinking it had something to do with the adjustable airflow or something, didn't even think that it could have debris in the air holes!! I don't get it all the time, but i do get it, especially on harder draws!

Thanx!!

So did using a drill bit and cleaning out the holes fix the whistling problem? I'm noticing this high pitch whistling sound too and it's annoying I don't think I got this type of whistle with the original KFL!

This is so lame and annoying, ugh, I do like the recessed fill port though with the O ring, but that's the only thing I like about the new KFL+

I haven't tried it yet, but I will when I do a coil change, if I feel like tinkering, to be honest mine doesn't whistle near as bad as it did when I first got it!

I just ordered a kayfun mini & I'm a little worried now that the quality might not be what it should after reading this! Quality of my original kfl what fantastic & honestly it's the only reason I purchased the plus & the mini, so if this starts going down hill, I won't be very happy!

Also, I am kinda regretting selling my kfl in the classies, wish I would have held on to it now!

For what it's worth, I have a KFL and a KFL+. When my air control is fully open on the plus, it feels the same as the original KFL. I haven't had any issues at all with my plus. I love them both!
