They are too expensive to waste your money on.
The Russians91% retail is being set by kebo at 92$ and the kayfun lite shipped from Germany thru intaste.De is 106$ shipped. Spend the extra dollars. Just in resale value alone you'll get your money back on the lite. A clone is a clone and fs value drops. My opinions.
I definitely want a third kayfun lite but my Lavatube on the classies ain't had one bite so it's Just not in the cards right now.

Well looks like the zmax v5 will be in tomorrow. And of course I'm working 9-5 and then class 6-9. I guess I get to play with the new toy while I watch Monday Night Raw. I hate that feeling of knowing you have something but can't use it till you get home. Bleh.

Also picking up a carto tank from Empiremods on Thursday. And maybe I'll grab a RBA from there too. Looked interesting and wasn't too expensive. Like 25 bucks. Just never recoiled anything before. Keith (the owner) said with SS mesh it was easy, plus I see a bunch of tutorials on YouTube. Hopefully I don't mess it up :)

Neo I have a bunch of cheaper SMOK carto tanks I'm PIFing to people courtesy of SMITGHE if you want a few.. He sent me way too many.
I think Empire has the rsst for 26$ not a bad price especially being it's local.. Keith set my bud up a few months ago with an rsst and some mesh and he's loving his.

Oh wow I didn't realize that retail was going to be that high! That's crazy, guess we got a pretty good deal ;)

This is the most ludicrous thing I've ever read. One of the best shows ever!

Yeah man I'll absolutely take one off your hands. More tanks means I have a bunch of juices ready to go. Let me know when you're free. I'm free tonight and then every night except Monday and Tuesday :)

ONCE My week is situated I'll shoot you a PM. Figure sometime Wednesday or Thursday night. They take flange cartos which I don't have FYI. I have thin ones(3ml) that would look good on an ego or thicker ones(5ml). Some of them were actually mine that I sent to smitghe last year when I had enough.. .

I may try silica/cotton on my AGA. The SS wicks are too finicky and truthfully doesn't impart as much flavor as the silica in my Phoenix. Can't hurt to try silica. It works great in a simple Phoenix RBA.

The silica wick in my is still going strong! Haven't finished the tank yet though. :D

You ought to do ss cable with a silica sleeve diaper. It's the best of both worlds and all I use for genesis builds. To be honest, I haven't been into gennys much since I've been using the Kayfun. I coiled my RSST last night for the first time in about three months. It puts off clouds of vapor at 0.6 ohms, but the flavor is no match for the Kayfun.

They are expensive when comparing retail, but if you get in on a group buy, there is no contest. I have 3 Kayfuns now and 2 Russian 91% coming soon. My reasoning for buying the Russian (besides the savings and sheer curiosity) is if I want to do a custom finish on it, I don't have to worry about destroying the Svoemesto logo.

I hear nothing but good about those Kayfuns.

You guys are killing my budget!

I hear that. I'm only allowing myself one more purchase after my zmax comes in today. Gonna grab an RSST soon. Other than juices and supplies (cartos, mesh and coil for when i learn how to build the RSST), I'm won't be spending any money.

Ok maybe eventually a cheap mechanical ;)

EDIT: Although I will say, the savings from smokes has been huge. $11.50 a pack here in NYC, and i was a PAD or more smoker. I used mint.com the other week to track finances. From 5/11 to 5/13 (when i started vaping) I spend over $5000 on cigarettes. That was using my debit card. That doesn't count the times I paid cash. As much as I've spent on vaping and trying new things, it's no where near the prices of smokes.

A buddy of mine just got a kayfun lite. Very very nice vape. Not sure if I like it as much as my cobra but I Def want one. I just refuse to pay higher prices for something just because it's hard to get.

Kayfyn Lite is fairly easy to find, and available right now from Intaste. :)

$11.50 for a pack of cigs! That's an outrage! I'm surprised Nanny Bloomberg hasn't just outlawed them. But then that's his revenue stream.

BTW, they are $5.10/pack here in tobacco road. Cartons can be got for $46.

If if weren't for MP I wouldn't have bought a Kayfun lite. And if you go to intaste they are 84 dollars us. Even with shipping its cheaper then buying one from a vendor in the states. I would have mine right now if we didn't miss the fed ex dude. And from Germany to my house was 4 days. Oi vay!!!! Hope everyone is doing well up in these parts. Sorry I haven't been around lately been mad busy.
