Ill keep this short, its really a simple question and i cant find it anywhere online, even svoemesto website.

I have multiple kayfun mini v3. Im just about to order the metal tank for it which increased the capacity from (2ml) to 3.6ml for the straight one, and 4.2ml for the bulgy one.

Im sure you know the diameter of the kayfun mini v3 stock is 19mm. Since these metal tanks increase the juice capacity, i assume it kicks the diamater of the tank up a little bit. Hopefully not by much

Im asking because i am also considering buying a Gizmo 20mm stealth mod from a close friend. It supports atomizers up to 19.5mm. Now you can see my dilema, I want to make sure the tank will fit before i buy it.
If anyone has any calipers, or can work magic with online searches, id be very appreciative. I checked all the authorized retailers carrying the metal tank & none of them state the new diamater with the metal tank.

The 4.2 would be great but that might be pushing it. If nobody knows i might just bite the bullet on the 3.6ml and let you guys know, if it even interests anyone out there. Lol :)

Thank you for your input have a great day :)

That would be 22mm diameter, the common width for a full sized Kayfun.

The atomizer for the Titan inserts down INTO a hole with a connector at the bottom.

Here's a video where the demonstrator inserts a Titan atomizer that looks almost exactly like a 22mm Kayfun. Maybe the video will shine some light on the process. FWIW, the video shows what they call a 24mm Gizmo. The 22mm model may be what you will need for a full size Kayfun. They come in 17mm, 20mm, 22mm, and 24mm.

Thanks for the tip. Yeah ive had my eye on the gizmo for awhile. I already have an Xvostick, and that functions pretty much exactly like a gizmo, except the gizmo is unregulated without a Kick device.

Are you 100% sure that a kayfun mini v3 with the aftermarket steel tank is 22mm? im not doubting you, that just seems like a really big increase in diameter around the whole tank. This is what i am referencing BTW.

On this pic it looks flush with the body, so the 3.6 tank might be 19mm still.
the 4.2ml tank i know for a fact 'bulges' a bit though, and i was wondering if it would push the tank over the 19.5mm limit for the gizmo. I wouldnt mind settling for the 3.6ml tank, it looks classier than the 4.2ml, but that extra bit of juice is tempting. I might just go for the above one, though, now that i think about it.

Sorry, I thought you were moving to a full sized Kayfun, which is a 22mm tank (my brain picked up the V3 part and missed the mini). Yes, the KF Mini V3 should fit if it's 19mm. You might want to check on the depth. The standard sticks out of the 24mm model wuite a bit. The Mini should fit even better and more stealthy if it's a little shorter.

K3 mini 4.2 SS tank width 19.65-19.68 mm. It is smaller than widest part of the base. The widest part of the base is almost 20 mm, and does fit in a 20 mm tube, just barely. I can screw one together if you really want to see what the 4.2 tank looks like on the K3, but it basically has the same look as the K5 with the larger tank.
