Expect pics of my KFL on my Neme with the FusionsMods hybrid adapter officially installed soon! Managed to snag a pair of adapters on the resent run of adapters. Had an issue with paying fast enough but Tod hooked me up with brass adapters from a batch he had extra laying around unserialized and he sent em out for me. So I'm getting a pair of beta LE adapters.

Woot!

In other news, I was vaping away at my Big Willie's Custard + MBV Dutch Apple Pie mix juice for 4 days straight on my 1ohm mesh style wick 4 standard wrap build and I remembered I had a modded EVOD with a 1.6ohm Micro + Cotton setup still loaded with the same juice and I noticed the custard flavor was muted on my KFL. Opened it up and it had a ball of crusty black gunk around my coil after running 6 tanks through it. It dawned on me that I was running this custard on my KFL only with the mesh wick since I tried it on it. I whent back to a 1.6ohm 30awg 7wrap 2mm outter diameter micro coil with straight cotton through it like when I first built it and lo and behold the custard came to life with aplomb!

So this was my first hand experience of actually noticing what different wicks do to different juices flavor-wise.

I also noticed the heat of the vape on this 1.6ohm micro is just as good as the 1ohm standard wrap I was running on the mesh wick build and the higher resistance fires with less voltage drop on my ....ty EFest batteries. Gonna have to get AW 18350's amd 18500's and maybe a pair of Sony or Panasonic 18650's. But I promise to get a 2nd KFL first. :p

Cotton, as in regular cotton from a qtip, wicks and tastes the best hands down. Change the wick every few days to a week (depending on how much you vape), dry burn the coil and it's like having a brand new build every time.

Yeah I know. I've been using either full micro + cotton or my special mesh wick + cotton tail build (page 351-352). I find the mesh and cotton build superior with my other juices by quite a bit but this custard is definitely better with straight cotton.

Problem and not even first day in :( seems this Pluid is no joke :laugh: :/ the O ring that goes on top of chemney and meets and bottom of top cap has enlarged and is not completing the seal :( where can I got more and pranto

I was having the same problem, Pluid was destroying my o-rings. Was changing them like every day till I ran out. After some research I ordered some Silicone O-Rings: 008 Silicone O-Ring, 70A Durometer, Red, 3/16" ID, 5/16" OD, 1/16" Width (Pack of 100): Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

Works WAY better. They do swell slightly, but at a much slower pace. I've only had to replace the O-Ring 1x after about 2 weeks. Upside is that I have 100 of em and they are cheap. I've just started replacing the O-Ring any time I open it up to be safe.

You can also order the Silicone O-Rings here: O-Ring Warehouse | O-rings Online | Nitrile (Buna), EPDM, Silicone, Fluorocarbon
They are the #008 Size, just make sure you pick the red Silicone rings, as most of the other softer O-Ring materials will swell just as bad as the stock rings.

it was just a guess on my part for I really didnt know what juice was in there, I just figured because it was so strong it had to have some real extracts. actually my guess was what bustabo was talking about, WTA juice. is that the same as NETs? I just vape regular juices, a couple of 50/50 blends and a couple alcohol based 100% vg juices. the 50/50 are from MBV, caramel and moo juice, the vg juices are from COV, butterscotch & kona crème. they are currently my 4 fav's

WTA and NETs are both extractions but they are entirley two different extraction process that extract different elements of the tobacco. I am no expert on WTA but NET is a simple extraction process where the tobacco leaves are allowed to soak in a liquid (usually PG, VG, or alcohol) and then the juice is filtered. WTA is far more involved.

Gotta love the all stainless look. I tried it for a day but I coulnd't stand not knowing where my juice levek was. :(

Yeah hopefully my guesstimation will be correct. Used a syringe to fill up exactly what it takes. I'll just have to keep a tongue on the flavor to know when it's getting dry lol.
