kayfun sucks.. any suggestions on a rba that has a tank and produce lots of clouds

[DaveP]

As I read through this thread I am just... Floored. Toys? Goodness.

I believe this thread should be allowed to slowly be banished to the depths of ecf and after reviewing op's post I have either two theories. Either the op is a troll meaning to stir up the pot, or I doubt the op is even old enough to be on this site and using a vaporizer.

Sometimes a bad review turns people against an otherwise good product. The kayfun is a great RBA for people who vape at normal voltages and want good vapor and flavor. Declaring it to be substandard has to be a lack of knowledge, insufficient dexterity to do a recoil, or a misaligned expectation of what the kayfun is and what it's designed to do. It's not a sub ohm cloud maker, for one.

The OP talks about wanting something that makes "lots of clouds" and trashes the kayfun. Isn't that a little like saying a Mercedes is trash because it's no good for off roading?

The kayfun was one of the first rebuildables I ever got. I got it because I wanted to rebuild but wasn't interested in a dripper at the time. Sure it takes a bit of practice to learn how to get a good consistent on it. But you can build it to be a fog machine, a flavour bomb, or what have you. I love the kayfun. I think it's a staple in any vapors arsenal

You are a wack... Reminds you on something? Check your post... What did you expect from single coil at i duno, 1.5ohm? What kind of juice do you vape? It should have at least 70% VG for massive clouds! Yeah VG is the essence of big clouds if you didnt know that already.

After I dry burn and re-wick, I have to turn down the voltage a bit. Right now, I'm vaping a 28ga Kanthal 1.5 ohm coil with organic cotton wicking and I'm currently at 3.3v (7.25W). If I crank to 3.7v (a little over 9W) it produces insane amounts of vapor. I can white out my face in a mirror and the cloud hangs in the air until I wave it away! All I want is something akin to the vapor produced by a common cigarette, not a cigar. I turn it down to 2.9v in public when I want good vapor without attracting too much attention.

The guys at the local vape shop use box mod drippers made by a local guy. They exhale streaming clouds of thick white 22 watt vapor about 5 feet long. It's probably fun and amusing to do it, but the lungs have to get a little irritated if you do that all day every day.

Yep, VG is the key. I'm one who gets the heavy lung feeling from too much VG. When I add VG to a mix it's usually 10% to 20% max. That in itself doubles the vapor.

I'm already watching my voltage. This thing goes through a 4.5ml fill way too quickly if I don't.

Just rebuilt my Kayfun with 26g G-Plat and organic cotton comes out to .45. Hit the button for 1 second, cool clouds of tastey vape. I have it on a Magneto mod. If it hit the button longer, it get too hot. Will probably get less hot with use. What I love about this build is that there was no break in period, it was good from the first puff.

That's funny. I use my Kayfun L+ more than any other tank I own. I don't think there's another RBA on the market as good as a Kayfun at the moment. I have Kanger Aerotank, Kanger Evods, Kanger T2's, Aqua RBA and I've tried drippers and didn't like them. I have both the TOBH Atty and a Patriot clone and still I use my Kayfun L+ as my all day vaping device.

The Kayfun lite isn't a cloud machine but it definitly isn't "wackk". Maybe you got a very bad clone or maybe don't know how to use it or maybe haven't used it at all, or maybe you just post random nonsense.

 

[azwun]

I haven't used my kayfun in some time (been dripping) but I was always told not to build lower than .7-.8 or you'll melt the insulator. I've heard good things about the Fogger V4 but I'm kinda over using a tank

 

[Leech]

I'd be more than happy to take the Kayfun off your hands!

I loved the 1st one I got so much I got a 2nd one so I could switch flavors!

 

[Needinput]

My kayfun clone is great. You might be having issues with wicking

Grasshoppah, you have much to learn.

Enlighten me please. Talking about RBAs not RDAs.

Ok, you asked. Have you tried an Erlkonigin? A Squape R? A Fogger v4? There are many devices out on the market that perform better than a KF. Please, don't get me wrong. The KF is good for what it does but there are definitely better options on the market.

 

[jaxgator]

Oh, and the term is RTA's (Rebuildable Tank Atomizers). RDAs (Rebuildable Drip Atomizers) and RTAs (Rebuildable Tank Atomizers) all fall into the same category entitled RBAs (ReBuildable Atomizers).

 

[danca90]

Sounds like you should get a genny style. The only one I have is the RSST. It's a nice set up. I do it in auto dripper (with cotton), but you can use steel mesh. They produce more vapor, but they also leak. I'll take flavor over vapor any day, so it is retired in favor of my kayfun.

 

[Say10]

Take some time and learn how to build it properly

I've seen reviews in the past on every RBA you just mentioned. If I buy one of them and I hate it within a day, do I have permission to stalk you,find out where you live and chop your nuts off?

I only ask because I had to cut the nuts off the guy that sold me the Aqua RBA and tried to convince me that it was better than a Kayfun because it was "dual coil"

No, No, No!
That's not how it works.
You still have to do your own homework to determine if the recommended hardware really does meet all your needs!

Well if you are a fan of drippers I have a Helios by Vapehead Origins running a .32 Ohm dual coil build made with 28 Gauge Kanthol and I geet pretty decent throat hits and it produces a nice cloud.
Also it can fit up to 4 coils on it just the Ohm might be higher haven't tried it before.

Sent on a tiny little text pad on TapATalk due to internet going down

I have tested some from friends of mine, still haven't buy one, but I can say that they are not bad. I have a Taigun GT clone and the setting on Kayfun seems a bit easier.
