For future maintenance purposes. Easy glass tank removal on a genny, put the device in the freezer for 15-30 minutes, the orings stiffen & glass will slide off. I wrap a rubber band around the glass tank. I have broken a few glass tanks, was given this tip from ECF member & builder of the Stratus22. NEVER FORCE A GLASS TANK ON AN ORING... Results in bad cuts & junk tank..

xSKOOBSx, i am going to ask my wife to mail this pckg out tommorow. Its an m tank + xtra stuff, you will enjoy i am sure. I set up 4 kayfun's this am, Delrin top caps, giving them a test run this week. The black top cap is a dual side by side 30g kenthal on 1/16 drill bit cotton wick's .9 ohm, very juicy vape. The white one is set up for my wife 1.2 ohm, better battery life. Gold cap, its on its 3rd tank. Blue cap, berry juice of course.

I was told to start a new thread and post pictures of these caps, see who might want them. I might start an interest thread next week, coop section.



Thank you very much for that tip I didn't know that.
I wasn't trying to force it and thought I was being careful as careful as I can be with Frankenstein hands( thanks dad )

I ll have another in a few days so it's no biggie but thanks for that tip. I will certainly be using it from now on.

Q...is that two separate coils including their own legs or is it one continuous piece of wire?

1. Two separate coils, conjoined at their legs, then mounted.
2. Total 0.6Ω. 28g Kanthal. Each side only has one wick leg.
3. The other side of each wick is clipped close to its coil.

what's the inner diameter of each coils? I've tried doing it with 2 microcoils coiled with 30 gauge on 1/16 drill bit. buggers just wouldnt fit side my side between the screws. I noticed that your 2 coils arent aligned horizontally too.

watched rip tripper's build on that, and he had em pretty and nice side by side. I'm guessing i'm gonna hafta go small than 1/16, but I'm a little worried that having smaller coils = less cotton = wicking can't keep up.

That exactly. I could've built smaller OD coils and flush fit them, but decided 'performance' over 'looks'. This build is a gr8 performer. I couldn't be happier.

also keep us updated on the performance. I've always worried about going subohm on the KFL because I've never really known if the insulator can tolerate the heat. As it is I lose enough insulators D:

I have one KFL with a 0.8Ω coil since ages. No issues whatsoever.

Hey guys, I just bought a new juice called Church by Cosmic Fog Cosmic Fog Church , it's description is "Scoops of old fashioned vanilla ice cream, lightly drizzled in decadent hot fudge. The flavor is topped off with subtle notes of sliced bananas, which combine in this perfect vaping treat."

Is banana something that would crack the acrylic frosted M-tank?

Yep, some banana flavorings can crack tanks.

Does anyone with a v2 using the included drip tip get juice coming from the tip? Its not my wicking method cause I have the same method for all my kfl and Russians. When I use my vicious ant Chaplin drip tip it doesn't happen only the v2 tip.

Also are there any other drip tips that have the wider bottom to use for nano tanks? I'm interested in a nano tank but the included drip tip would be unproportional looking in 350 mode IMHO. Also don't wanna bother getting a additional chimney

I used the V2 tip for awhile and didn't have any issues w/ it. Brett at BullBox Mods makes some very nice tips in several styles. He will also do custom tips to your specs. I'll throw up a pic tomorrow for you of a shorty he custom made for me out of verasite.

I actually have the opposite happening... I've been getting plenty of juice inside my V1 tips with the small hole... but since I got my V2, I haven't had it happen at all, not even once all this week.

Go figure, eh!


But now that I posted this, I can almost guarantee that it will happen on my next hit on the V2... ;)

also like qorax, I have had a sub ohm build in a kayfun for a long time and also have never had any issues. the one sub ohm build I am currently vaping on one of my lites is a .8Ω with 26g wire on a 5/64 diameter. I am vaping this on my dna 2- mod. I can vape this at 20 watts but prefer it at 17.5

Hey guys anyone know how you post from your pictures to the forums here and GET THE PHOTO TO BE A LARGER SIZE THAN JUST A SMALL ONE LIKE SOME OF YOU HAVE DONE? Let me know appreciated.

Use Photobucket or any image host, then, when you post the direct image link (Using Insert Image), make sure you UNCHECK the box on the FROM URL tab that says something like "retrieve remote file and reference locally"

Thanks for the response folks. Finally got down to it. 0.77 on my ohm meter, and it works superb. Surprised at the amount of vapor and throat hit I got from it!
