    I think I ordered around 10/23... Not surprised though. I didn't realize this was the first run.. But I knew it was going to take a long time when I ordered. I mean, come on, for that price, did they not realize the instant they put that up for sale it wouldn't blow up?
    They're Chinese Leo they probably have as hard of a time predicting our reactions as we do theirs , maybe I'm wrong but their mindset is different .
     
    Mine was ordered 10/23 and due to ship on the 11th but no emails I think that the first people that ordered raised a lot of hell prompting the emails there are some pathetic people on the forums there it's actually so bad it's hilarious .

    Oh it's definitely pathetic. I can't stand conflict like that. Just a bunch of babies.

    I'll wait as long as I have to...no reason to get panties in a wad about it for sure for that price. ;)

    Yup no problem waiting at this price , the photos posted look good , after I get this I'll either get another one or a Fogger v2 and a Nemesis clone although the Magneto clones just came out and I want another SVD , Damn it never ends RJ !

    kayfun Lite Plus also in stock at Intaste.de. I think that explains why all the regular locations suddenly ran out of the "regular" kayfun Lite's. They replaced them and re-stocked with the Lite Plus. They both are the same price after all.

    I'm quite happy with my Lite without the air adjustment, but don't see why anybody ordering one now should not get the Lite Plus.

    Yeah, that's $11 less from VapeRev. Had to figure the prices would drop eventually with all the clones, fakes, impostors, and knockoffs. It appears the airflow valve is located on the bottom. I see they also revised the fill hole screw. I know that screw has been a source of frustration for some. I haven't had a lick of trouble from the fill screw. Doesn't leak a bit. The only issue I've had is the deck pedestal getting slightly off square. But I straightened and tightened with no trouble. This Kayfun Lite has been a perfect device. I even like the drip tip that comes with it. Still hasn't leaked so much as a molecule of juice.

    Am I the only one who orders from this place ?
    Inexpensive, fast service/ delivery, wide range of Kanthal (now including flat ribbon) and aware that Vapers are buying smaller spools from them. Just a few prices;
    Kanthal A-1 round wire, 30 gauge, 100 feet spool - $5.47
    Kanthal A-1 flat wire 0.7mm X 0.1mm, 100 ft - $25.71
    Not sure if that flat wire is a good price as I don't use ribbon, I use the round.
    Since several of our friends here in the HHV Army are now getting Rebuildables, I just thought I'd make them aware of this source for Kanthal wire and ribbon. If you already know of a better place then go for it.

    OK, I'm officially getting frustrated with this SVD. The power goes off of its own volition. It's starting to piss me off. About one out of every 8 - 10 attempts, I get no power. The thing shuts itself off and I have to turn it back on. Gets old! Any other SVD owners with the same problem?

    Mine started to do the same thing about a month ago. I ended up throwing it away

    Well, you already know what my solution would be.....

    I've been making a lot of 11-12 wrap coils that are ohm testing below 1.0 ohms with 29 gauge wire. I don't know that I really want to stay in that range. Would 30 gauge, or even 32 gauge, get me closer to a 1.5- 2.0 ohms range ? I just think my HHV juices taste better around 8 watts instead of the 15- 17 watts I've been getting lately.
    Also, would increasing the resistance lengthen or shorten the battery life on a strait mechanical mod ?

    Okay. I got two micros rocking at the moment. Yeah, there is a lot more vapor. One is 1.7 and one is 1.9.

    Thanks for the tips guys. The heat it up and scrunch it after installation made a difference.

    Good deal. Glad it worked out.

    I've ordered from there before. Great place to get bulk wire. Got a spool of 30g from them. May get some 26g soon.
