Kayfun LITE

[mgmrick]

I have also found you can use a flashlite that has a small beam. Focus the flashlite from top and look through the air hole to see how it lines up.

Now what to do when they don't line up?

Yep I was thinking maybe the insulator wasn't the correct thickness. Its only 2 weeks old and my first one. Full of juice right now or else I would take it apart and snap some pics. I find myself reaching for the IgoW instead of the kayfun. When I got it I read over 200 pageses on this thread so would be prepaird for this wonder to come in.
Yeah now.what.to do...

Considering how long this thread is, I'm sure this has been mentioned but for those that might have missed it. You can turn the frosted tanks into reasonably clear tanks with just tooth paste and elbow grease. Put some toothpaste on a link free cloth or microfiber (I'd bet a regular washcloth would work but I've used microfiber) and wrap it around the tank. Sit and watch TV or something for a bit and just keep turning the tank in the cloth. It'll polish up rather quickly and get much clearer. Not to the clarity of actual clear plastic but rather close.

whats the diameter of your nanos? I run some nanos from time to time in my drippers but they are really nanos in which I have to use a cotton cloud instead of actually wicking thru them. I have messed around for a build in the kayfun that uses a cotton bed instead of thru coil but because of the bottom air hole found it almost impossible. so are these nanos wicked?

Not sure what the diameter is exactly, because I don't know! LOL I use the smallest screwdriver in my screwdriver set. About 10 wraps each gets me to my sweet spot of .5 ohms. They are wicked with organic cotton. Through the coils. As far as the bed setup for wicking, if it works for you, that is great. But, like you stated, the airflow hole in the center makes that difficult. I am guessing there is a millimeter or so in between the posts and the coils. And, if I had to guess, The coils are somewhere around 1-1.5 millimeters in diameter. I also use 28 gauge kanthal wire for the coils. I find the 28 gauge to be more durable then the smaller sized wire(like 30 or 32) most people use for nanos.

This has probably been answered before but there is over 1000 pages in this thread. How do you get the positive pin lined up with the air passage? If I get it lined up then the block is not tight. If I get it tight then its not lined up and the draw is tight. The air holes in the pin correspond with the slot where the screw driver fits. Hope im explaining this OK.

I was having the same problem as well until I tightened the screw to where the line on the screw was even with the adjustable air and fill hole. Fixed it for me.

Thanks a bunch! The EHPro Kayfun lite plus v2 clone is my first ever RBA, so I didn't know about the airflow hole on the positive screw. I accidentally loosen that screw even before my first built so I didn't know what kind of vape to expect. Having trouble with just trying to tighten the screw and make sure the positive post is at the right place. Now that you mentioned it, I took out the air adjustment screw, disassembled my tank, and no and behold I can see the airflow hole in the positive screw is totally out of place. Took me a long time but I think i finally got it 4/5 aligned which is good enough for me...thanks!

Thanks buddy, sounds good. There are so many terms out there today I got confused between nano and super nano. I initially was imagining a much smaller coil when I read your post, one to small to wick. Thanks

Yours looks perfect. Did you have to reef on it? Mine has another just over 1/4 turn to go, closer to loosen but that won't work. Don't want to strip or snap it.

My point exactly...

I love clones because I refuse to get ripped off. All the clones I have bought have been great. There is NOTHING wrong with buying clones. Leave them alone.

I'm having problems with air flow as in none. Channels are clear, what should I check?

Make sure your coil is not laying too low (close to the air flo). It has to be lifted a mm or two. Do you have an adjustable airflow control screw on yours? You need to back that out as well.

I think it was the air flow screw, I am starting over again. I ruined the coil taking it all apart, but now I know how it works. Thanks!

Let us know how it turns out. Ruining coils is a good way to get some practice in.

Will do, I like building coils. Don't like trying to get the wire around the posts, takes me forever.

You probably have sausage fingers like most of us guys. Not designed for making Kayfun coils.

 

[Clark F]

They sure make it look easy on the videos

GF couldn't do it either, she tried for an hour and gave up. I finally got it, but took a while.

Even with little tiny fingers, it's not easy to get the wire around the posts, but it's well worth it once you succeed!
