I wonder if your idea of a "good hit" is a nice full and thick lung fill. If so, the kayfun probably isn't the best atty for achieving that

But if you're going for warmth and throat hit, then considering that you're using a mech, why not drop the resistance to somewhere around 0.8 or 0.9 ohms?

You can also use a dual coil build

Lol- the mvp is the most sentimental to me. That one got me off cigs altogether. Not to mention down here thats high class vaping Lmao!
Nothing really against the mod itself but paired with such a big atty looks kind of funny. Not quite as bad as an ego/ kayfun but hey, if it vapes, that's all that really matters.

Lmao!!!! You right looking at that line up!!!!! Then again ive slapped it on an ego already too just for poops and laughs. Hosnestly though ive been sticking with the mini provati, vaporshark and stingrayX mostly, the mvp is mostly used for the ohmmeter
^ saw a picture on reddit: a 28mm TOBH on an ego. Funniest sight I've seen in a long long while.
Lmao, like he said, whatever keeps ya off smokes [emoji23]

Hey guys I need your help. I am having some taste troubles with my KFL+ lately... After setting it up, I am having an awesome vape for about 15-20 minutes, then the taste fades dramatically. I dont get burn hits, the wicking is really good... The problem is when it stars wicking on its own after the first puffs.
Someone told me that the cotton is too tight on the coil. I tried to let the cotton pass freely inside the coil but it didn't help. What am I doing wrong?
I use a standard microcoil, 32 gauge around 1.4 ohm on my evic supreme at 12 watts.

I would try going to 28g or 39g and using a wider coil. I use 2mm but you may want to try 1.4mm-1.6mm coil, this will let you use more cotton and give you more heating surface. From my experience the kfl likes to be wrapped around 1.4-1.6 ohm. Also it helps to cover the airhole and blow into the kfl, i find it helps get the pressure inside the tank start the wicking process a little quicker.

I'm using a 2mm screwdriver (the blue one that came with an atty, I will try 2,5mm to fit more cotton... I do the "blow" thingy and it helps but I have to do it every 5 mins. Thanks though!
Are you putting cotton directly over the.juice channel of slightly offset.
I wouldn't go to much bigger than 2mm. When your wick us that wide you wanna trim the ends a but and just let it touch the deck neer the channel so that it wint choke off the flow

How can I make my EHpro KFL+ V2 hit harder? I have to take like 10 second pulls in order to get the hit that I want.

It's 1.3 ohms micro coil. I'm using a mech mod brass GP PAPS with a VTC5.

Edit: nvm I got it! I just have to suck it harder, damn I cough on every exhale lol [emoji10][emoji189]

Edit: nvm it was only on those two hits [emoji1] I'm open to suggestions [emoji106]

you'll just have to change your coil/wicking/airflow to find a decent balance between flavor, vapor production, heat, and speed of heating. I've been on the kayfun for maybe 6 months now and I'm still zeroing in on the goldilocks build. what's your current setup?

but here's one simple tip: fire your mech before inhaling. as I move my hand up to my mouth to take a drag, I start to fire the button. I think this shaves a couple seconds off the time. I got this idea from the official svoemesto kayfun lite pdf manual. He calls it the "the rule of press draw release." lol.

That's the issue I've been struggling with since buying. First don't pinch the coil when red hot to make a micro coil leave some gaps. Next build with the bottom half of the chimney on, use some tweezers to spread out the cotton to clear the fluid channels. Another thing that seems to be helping is a very light amount of cotton placed around the coil from the top. For me it is very difficult problem to overcome and still run into it on occasion. The other issue is not having hot spots in the coil, without using the micro coil technique this can be an issue, I ordered a jig to help with this.

Anyone else get a little leaking from the seam between the top of the tank and the drip tip. It's on tight and flush, can't see any defects but still...the side of the tank gets a little juicy when I set it down....
Any tips?
Could the leaking you're seeing actually be condensation instead? The standard Kayfun drip tip reduces airflow which makes it easier for condensation to form. If you keep your mod upright this will trickle down and collect in the cup that holds the tip and can seem like a leak when its just condensation.

I am vaping this build as we speak, the only difference is I'm using twisted 32g. I'm able to get the .9 range with 9 wraps. I have tried single 28 and 29 but found it a little slow even with a mech, so by using the twisted 32 I'm able to get a much quicker vape. Either way it is a nice set up

with that mod and that set up you should be getting a pretty fast vape. Have you tried that same kayfun in a vv device to compare? I'm asking because maybe your getting some voltage loss? If you are not getting alot of voltage loss then have you tried twisted 32g? I find I am able to achieve the same resistance and wick coverage without the lag time.
