I've heard the 3.1 has had some leaking problems from the valve. Are there any such common problems with the kayfun Lite since it uses a screw hole?

I'm asking because I'm in the market for a Kayfun Lite so if anybody here has a spare they want to sell, I'm your man :)

"0" leaking of any kind, from anywhere, whatsoever.

Purchase the K Lite with much confidence. This a winner and a keeper.

I also have no valve issues. The best way to avoid them is to rinse the device out a bit. I have found breaking it down when it's time to change flavors , rinsing ekowool wick and running warm water in a filler tip through valve will flush juice gunk out so that there are no issues sure helps. I drop collector tank also.

I definitely will if I can ever find one haha. Any educated estimates on when they might be in stores? I know nobody knows for sure.

InTaste is the cheapest & best place in the world for our K-Lite as of now. Right price, gr8 CS, lowest shipping costs AND sends by FedEx (3-days flat arrival). Hit the notification window (under the cart) and u'd know when they r in-stock.

We've observed a few lacunas in the FedEx shipping method, mostly due to the 'clear description' of the shipping label. I've notified both Marija and Steffen on what's to be done, they've acknowledged the changes, and hopefully there won't be any issues in our shipments from InTaste hereon.

They also stock it more frequently than others. Hopefully next week they'd again.

I just noticed that I get some leakage from the bottom of the lite. I haven't noticed it till now since it's just a little bit of juice accumulating around the 510 connection. I'm assuming it's from the fill screw so I tried tightening it a bit to see if it would help but it didn't move much if at all. I'll keep you posted.

How are you filling? Top cap? Just for kicks, I would invest. Im happy to send you a couple if needed on me. I even have a stamp.

I would run it under warm water. I would suggest lightle depressing with a toothpick that is dulled a bit. But, of course at your own risk.
This isnt something you have to do alot but I know SM has helped many users with a stuck ball valve. If you look back a few pages, I think 9BallAJ had a stuck valve. I think there might be a mention also on their trouble shooting guide. Im too lazy to look right now.

It has leaking issues if you rush to put it together without making sure it's assembled correctly. Then, after you've sucked 3ml's of your favorite juice out of it, you can put it together correctly and there are no issues :)



I have to say, this is the first "new" vaping experience I've had since I bought my first dripper. This is like having a dripper with a reserve. To me, the tastes are very similar - full, rich in flavor, nice throat hit. Simply awesome.

I've notisted the same. It is equivelent to a drop or two. I dont think its coming from the screw. I think it may be seeping from 1e and 1i down through the connectinpin housing 1k

Uh, this post made me detach mine and have a look-see :) Nope, no leaking there... 5-days into constant use, 8 x tank refills thru. As Idaho correctly opined, in most cases that 'leak' might be juice "weeping" thru the air-hole and finding it's way underneath... I had the weep scene once or twice, but I immediately wiped-it off. But then, few of my Gennys weep too, usually while chain-vaping.

Good post but, im curious. I have put a few KF together and am wondering how you put it together wrong...like super gluing the drip tip on the 510 connection? :laugh:
I have found screwing it together fairly simple even when all Im worn out from fingerpainting and ready to lay down for a nap with my blankie. :)
