No need for a syringe if your bottle has a nipple top that fits in the bevel of the screw hole. Just push bottle against the fill hole to make a seal and squeeze. I put the device at 45 degrees and fill until the air bubble just reaches the bottom metal section. :p

That's correct, you can fill your KFL thru it's fill-hole with your juice bottle directly. A syringe is not required.

That was it, thank you gentlemen, this thing absolutely rocks!!! I fear that after I get my Russian 91%, I might not have to buy anything else...

Any magic tricks for knowing the perfect fill level without the plastic tank section? Currently I suck out what's in there and add up until I got 4ml in a syringe, then re-fill. Seems to be a tad too much to the vacuum suction thingy going properly. Would like not to be reliant on a syringe for re-fills... and what's the ideal maximum fill level going by milliliters?

Some juices have eye droppers and not nipple tops. Yes, you could get bottles with the tips but then at 85 cents/syringe....

I use HHV's standard bottle tops (eye droppers) directly on the K-Lite, General. Just line it up, make sure it's snug and give it a sqeeze. No leaks..

I do however, use a syringe to drain out the juice when replacing wick/coils.

A completely clean and dried KFL will accept 4.0mls of juice and leave enough air inside to properly function without a leak. If you have residual inside, then I would try 3.75mls or about.

I believe y'all! :) I'm kind of like April, Dust. I use the syringe for everything because I'm so used to it. I also have Adam's blunt needles atop his bottles. But they are smallish and take a long time to dispense 4mls of juice (not to mention it stirs up my arthritis in my hand). :)

I know right.. I bought 5 of them, and it's excruciating how slowly they feed. One has been opened, the other 4 are still in their packages and will not be seeing any air-time!

I know, but this is my unicorn, and if the Russian is just as good, or better (I don't know how), I won't need anything else, but need and want are two different things. ;)

I'm not kidding myself. I'm patiently awaiting the arrival of the Russian 91% as well. I KNOW I will be buying atleast one more of whichever device I prefer more..

I have a few e-pipes that will get one assigned to them (they can share it). One will be used as my at home unit, and the 3rd will be the one I use for out and about.

Do I/ Will I need spares?! I'll think about that later.. :D

I'm gonna be ordering a second KFL by mid october if everything goes to plan on the financial side of things. Miss having at least 2 flavors to mix it up through my day. For the life of me I try to vape on my VapeOnly BCC's after the KFL came in last week and I can't enjoy them anymore. I was able to set them up to work on my Neme but I have to drag for ever to get a satisfying vape from them now.

about micro-coils: i am hearing a sizzling sound after i take a vape coming from the coil, as it is cooling down immediately after I vape.....is that normal juice gunk just cooling because the coils are so close together? are you experiencing this as well?
also, the micro-coils, seem to gunk up faster than my previous "regular" bunny ear ribbon builds....any suggestions?
currently all my SRTA's are coiled with 28awg, 9-10 wraps touching, 1.1-1.3ohm....
since no answer...just for fun...

I'm getting a fair amount of "after burn" popping. It's particularly true since I've moved to 26g nichrome. Seems to take longer to cool down. Seems to heat up more quickly than kanthal, interestingly.

Would anyone know why all these bubbles are appearing in my KFL?

I never had this happen before, KFL is about a month or 2 old and this started happening the last 2-3 times i have filled my tank. Has happened on different builds, Different juices, I fill my juice thru the fill hole on bottom. Its really annoying to look at!!!
