also draw is a little Tight

Nemi clone fully charged sony vtc5
and a cloupor box mod.
NOT blowing clouds like videos ive seen with KFL. Its like sucking a really frozen milkshake, I get a little of the amazing flavor, but I struggle.




Got one, I dont like that one either. Mine was no powerhouse in the vape department either, although it certainly wasnt like pulling on a frozen milk shake. Air control on mine seems useless, although I wouldnt describe the draw as tight. Maybe yours is worse than mine. I like the ehpro model only somewhat more. That is Version 2, and it might take some time to get the wrinkles ironed out. these versions 2's certainly havent yet been representative of Kayfuns in general. And i do hope the ones i got and you got are not representative of them in general. I also hesitate to speak my mind fully on them. The reviews are just coming in on them. I'm still waiting for a review on them, from the Golden Rule.

sometimes vaping opinions are sort of relative to what one has experienced. If someone would have given me a kayfun v2 when i was vaping cigalikes a long time ago, i would have thought it was top dog on the planet, just not today.

Anyone seen those ghost fill tanks? Cloud 9 has them. The parts you purchase are a replacement plastic tank and one of the two tank sections that attach to it. I think these two sections are kind of one piece but do thread apart somewhat. There is a small hole in tank for filling which as you un thread exposes this fill hole. This purchase may be good for those who like to top fill because they find it more convenient.

I've been looking; and can't find much on building a taifun, no active thread anyway.
I lost my mech and kfl v2 at a firework/music feet Thursday night. Earlier that morning I scored a great deal on an authentic taifun.
I'm loving the thing! The flavor is better than the kayfuns.
I had it wrapped at 1.4 with steel mesh and a slica flavor wick. Decided this morning to rebuild it at 1.6 with just a cotton wick and it's even better!
Looking for ideas or to see if maybe there is something else I can try. The "bridge" wick coil is something totally new for me and I've noticed she does flood and gurgle easy if the wicking isn't just right.

Now thats cool... I was thinking the other day why they didnt have a fill method like this... guess they do :)

Personally it looks like a royal PITA. Bottom filling goes smooth as silk for me.

Could be, have no idea. Personally bottom filling is just so easy imo, cant see any advantage to anything else, I fill all 4 of my kayfuns up and they last a long while, no need to fill at anytime besides home when I have a screw driver. But for those who may have only on kayfun, and vape more then a tank full while there out, maybe this could work?

Hi, I'm about to try to start making my own coils for a kayfun lite plus version 2, I have 28 gauge kanthan wire and would like to know what size drill bit to use to obtain a 1.5-1.8 microcoil, is it 5/64ths? Thx
Yep, about 12, but I kind of like 10 to 11 better which still should work on a vv device

Possibly, the market will dictate that. I guess that's the advantage to being a wheelchair user. I keep a pouch under my seat with a small bag of tools for the chair anyway, so I always have a screwdriver with me regardless. But, even if I didn't I would have to have something to carry juice in if I were to keep juice with me to refill, I can't imagine why having a small screwdriver with the extra juice would be a problem for someone.

I agree, but those seem to be reasons I hear for top filling.

I haven't paid that much attention to the why people do it. Because once you've down something once and it went wrong, or it was a disaster and you do it again, well that's the definition of insanity. Doing the same thing over and over but expecting the same result.
I just have issues when someone complains about something like that when the solution is right here at the bottom. To me that's like complaint about the fish at a steak restaurant.

So that I understand..... People are taking extra juice with them and refilling from the top, when they ate carrying the juice in some sort of carrying object-ie bag, but not putting a screwdriver in said bag, or using the screwdriver that can go on their keychain?
Just trying to understand the logic.
This is the reason my wife is not using a kfl.

Thank you for your very informative and comprehensive explanation. Based on your advice, I really did take a clear FastTech SKU:1570900 Kayfun 3.1 and watched what appends in the mirror. You are absolutely correct on how it works. Unless, of course you are a truck driver like me and going up and down at different altitudes (from 0.0 to 4600 feet above sea level) all day. Then you are screwed. Every tank leaks in my situation. I'm even thinking of installing access pressure purge valves in my tanks. Either manual purge valve or spring loaded ball one way valve. Like Kayfun 3.1 ES Fill Valve only backwards. I would appreciate you thoughts on that.

It has been over 24 hours since I enlarged my 28.5mm Kayfun juice flaw channels.
I've consumed about 75% of it's first refill and, so far did not run into any problems yet. Will keep you posted.

Happy Independence Day!!!

Mike.

Hey AMD, I was thinking, could you set your mods in mason jars? They would keep a consistent pressure if you sealed them at sea level.
