No no!!! It hasn't even been whispered yet...just speculation...
I'm gonna guess that with the original being $100, this new one will probably be around $150-$200...which is just sad to me...cuz that's a big punch in the wallet.
But...you never know...the industry has seen a big increase in the number of authentic mods and atomizers at very affordable prices...

Hopefully it will be closer to $100 than $200, $200 is probably more than I would be willing to pay. That would also leave a lot of room for cloners to undercut them.

So true.
I mean, I get it...people have to make a profit on what they do for a living...but what you just said is so true.
If they price it too high, that makes for less customers...and more customers for the clones!

Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of buying originals and am willing to pay more for them but there's a limit to what I'm will to pay for something like an atomizer. Then there's also the issue of finding originals, when I looked for an authentic KFL/ Russian 91 I only found it on a couple US sites and I couldn't find much info on them so who knows if they were actually authentic.

So, Brett...

Are you a wine geek or a beer geek? I like me a little Brett in my Rhones and Bords...

Beer geek, you're the first to ask about that. I love me some Belgian and Flemish ales, unfortunately I haven't had as much luck myself with the Belgian yeast strains as I have with the unique Bavarian strains.

Are you telling me that not everyone is in love with IPA's ;)

It's funny that you mention that, I live in the NW which is the birthplace of American IPAs and no I don't really care for them. I enjoy British style IPAs as a change of pace but they're not quite as hoppy and there's enough malt to balance it out.

To keep this on topic I did have another question. Are there any good pics of the build deck? In the one teaser video they showed it and it looks like 4 screws for doing dual coil builds but it was hard to tell scale, I'm curious how much room there is.

Yep, two coils is a feature of the V4. Back off topic, I really like the Delerium Tremens out of Belgium. I'm a wine guy though, and Brett is oft considered a fault of unhygienic conditions in a winery, but it sure adds depth of character when the fruit is big enough to pull it off...

I can't drink IPAs anymore because I'm allergic to something in the synthetic hops that gives it that bitter IPA kick.. It was an 11% "Imperial" IPA one night that was the last straw.. I can down Belgian dubbels/trippels/quads/barleywine all night like theyre water but one IPA and I've got a migraine worse than any hangover by the time the beers done!

Subtopic has just been changed (unofficially and via coup ) to what you pair with your KF... pair as in drink with.

So,... I'm sure it's the international version of Boone's Farm, but I REALLY like Cherry Kijafa, but... it doesn't compare to some of our Northern Michigan Cherry Wines.

Sadly being in the situation I'm in its crappy Budweiser with the KFL for me.. I miss the days of going to BevMo and NOT being able to make up my mind!!!

Technically the KF4 is out soon and this thread will die shortly after, might as well talk about beer haha!!

I hope this thread survives, I probably won't even be buying a KF4 clone for quite some time... I kinda hope this causes the prices to drop on the previous KFs to the point that I can pick up a half dozen, nice and cheap :)

EDIT: I am about to go grab another glass of Scotch... that's what I am pairing with tonight. Toot, toot, sip,.. toot, toot, sip.

Hey now, I don't want to get involved in any coup. I came here to innocently talk about the new KF and got dragged into a beer conversation, it's harder to get me to shut up about beer than it is to get me started but still...

I'm not that into wine and haven't tried many fruit wines but I do enjoy some of the local Pinot Noirs and if I'm in the right mood I enjoy some Merlots and Cabs. My favorite "pairing" after beer is Bourbon, I do find that straight Bourbon kills any flavor in my vape if I don't bring it down to about 80 proof with a splash of water.
