No, you didn't ;)
Get one for $0.70 here. Better still - two for $0.85 here.

BTW, I've two from InTaste @ different times - and both have those, it's thus strange that they've done away with it lately.

Or you can get one from Vaperev for $3.00

My KFL from InTaste didn't include the driver... o well.

I learned today that the default KFL o-rings and Pluid don't get along. Any suggestions on a good o-ring material to use with Pluid? I know the ring is 5x1.5mm, but I'm not sure if I should get Viton, Silicone or something else.

Find out what material your radiator hoses are made from. :D

For reference, as promised, this is how I'm wicking my KFL:

Fluffed up from side to side right over the deck:

After putting the chamber on I double check that the entire bottom of the deck looks covered in cotton but making sure not to press down on the tails hard against the deck:

Then I drop juice onto them until all the cotton is nice and wet, I keep putting liquid in until it looks very saturated:

It has been working perfectly for me like this, no leaks, no dry hits, just perfect. For reference my current juice is 20/80 pg/vg.

Well, it is what ECF is about. It's only a few bucks in postage and about 15 minutes of time. It's really not a big deal when you think about it (less than what you put into your vids). I'm guessing Yeti traded it or got it working as I have not heard back from him/her. Either way I hope it worked out for him/her.

Trade didn't happen....but I did try a silica bow-tie setup in the KFL last night just to give it one more go. From previous experience, this setup works the best for me although I would prefer to use micro/cotton builds of course.

It was working pretty good for a bit, then dry hits again. It just will not feed like everyone else's seems to!

BTW, I'm using 50/50 DIY juice.

Gonna send it out to you tomorrow. Make sure when you get it you run a couple tanks through it because in my experience it can work fine for half a tank or so and then starts giving me fits again.

Thanks again for what you're doing for me!

thank you so much, I do appreciate it. maybe we have the dry hits out of the way, next, muted flavor. I do think the muted flavor slightly goes along with the wicks make up, like the density and possible type of cotton. for me, I have only vaped sterile cotton from cvs. it is possible that other types or manufacturers cotton differs in taste. also I believe, which may have nothing to do with it, that clean hands when forming the wick helps. this may just be in my mind but one time I had dirty hands when making a wick and I thought the taste was off.

Vap is spot on with the dirty / clean hands thing. Just before handling it wash them hands!

Also, i almost gave up oncotton, it takes practice to have the density required just right.

But once you get it right, it's the best thing for flavor i have tried

10-4 Yeti. First thing I will do is check the geometry of your channels (and the overall geometry) to ensure it is the same as mine. I have digital calipers so I can be precise. I'll build a silica wick and give it a spin. Keep your current wick/coil in it so I can see if there is something amiss.

Wondering if you tried non-DIY juice in your Kayfun? And have you vaped the DIY successfully in another device? Some of these DIYs are not filtered very well and they gunk up coils rapidly.

I concur! I wash my hands right before grabbing my cotton ball to pull out and roll my wick. I swear very easily, especially in my the hot and humid tropical weather. If I roll my wick with oily fingers my taste goes from awesome to old wet rag instantly.

You probably don't make DIY juice if you say it needs to be filtered.

No I do not make my own juice. But I have been sent lots of DYI and I see sediment in the bottom of the bottle and when I dump it, the particles remain on the bottom and have to be shook out of there with an intense water agitation.

Are you talking about DIY in general or just for the NET's?
